  1. just think ..Twins just got handled easily by two of the weakest teams in the division.. Pitching staff just looks like they're throwing BP
  2. bullpen can never be trusted ..not a single one of them... i would not feel confident even with a 5 run lead
  3. absolute No ....do you watch his AB's ? the kid knows the strike zone...doesn't chase many pitches out of the zone. i could care less about all your analytics. the kid is a major league hitter ..and will stay
  4. he gave up 5...it was a game until bullpen gave up another 5.. we had 10 hits.. keys to the game were Gray and Buxton K-ing back to back during crucial part of game with RISP. Buxton K'd 4 times after leadoff HR... THAT is not acceptable
  5. I just dont see vast improvement from a year in AA(2027) .. then a year in AAA(2028).. hitting 95mph+ fastballs is not easy and pitch recognition doesnt come easy .. you either have it ..or you dont.. i just dont see guys that are K Kings moving up the ranks...ever become impactful Major leaguers..hopefully he proves me wrong
  6. elite arm ...???? just when has he came in and dominated an inning to close out a game .. i've seen nothing of such
  7. get back to us when he gets that K ratio down to 20% or less... hes still young..time to learn...i see maybe 2-4 years more in the minors
  8. no .. end of story.. Gray and Kreidler are better hitters than this tool
  9. just saw that .. hes given up like 20 runs in 22 innings !! hope the cash transaction wasnt for more than $20
  10. saw this game live yesterday in Pittsburgh. team was lifeless from the start. Buxton is only DHing and he needs a day off ??? This roster is full of AA/AAA ball players... and just lost 6 of 7 to mediocre teams in White Sox and Pitts. Unbelievable how they just kept flailing at simple breaking balls from Ashcroft. no pitch recognition at all..
  11. there is no reason whatsoever he's in the bigs. you dont get a roster spot when you cant hit .200 just for 9th inning defense
  12. could be as simple as a lighter bat?? the guy cant make contact w a simple fastball. i just dont see a career saving turnaround.. let him figure it out in AAA for entire year.. my vote would be get Culpepper up here and see what he can do.. it cannot be worse
  13. send him down to A ball to get some confidence..HaHaHa,,, but he'd probably still K at a 30% + rate . experiment over ..let him go
