  1. Well i do have concerns, dont you? Iprefer to be playing meaningful games in september, or for that fact meaningful games in july....
  2. Most teams that carry a light hitting middle infielder , have enough offense and solid defense . we dont ....
  3. What happens if Joe benson,Chris Parmelee and Mr.hicks are not ready for prime time? What if Darren Mastroanni isnt a full time player? What if Josh Willingham is the best defensive outfielder we have in 2013? What if Terry is wrong about Florimon and Dozier can not handle shortstop? What if bone chips in fact are a precurser to tommy john surgery, and both Scott Diamonds and Worely are done for the season by June? What if Harden and Pelfrey both imitate Zumyaya and never make it out of spring training? What if klank Ploufe continues to have a stone hands? What if as most predict Correias ERA translates into the low 5.00s in the A.L.? What if Nick Blackburn is our best starter? Yes i understand it all could be just the oppisite and we are playing meaningful games come September But im guessing we challenge the Cleveland spider as the worst team ever , rather then play in the post season ...
  4. So by signing quality players , and then trading the players for quality prospects, that some how hurts our minor leaques? Spend to acquire quality assets , then in turn trade the assets for future assets....adding to our prospects....
  5. easy to get him to drop it , fire jake and make him the highest ever AAA player , after a couple of weeks of riding the bus he will waive his no trade clause....or constantly pinch hit drew butrea for him hahaha lots of ways to modivate a player to want to leave , and the front office is skilled at this, its getting players to want to come here where they have troubles...
  6. well if its Carl the stache Pavano , then we know which pretty darn good pitcher Terry was chasing all off season
  7. Ok i know its off subject , but what is the fallback plan if hicks and parmelee are not ready this year? would it make sense to have another outfielder ready some where?
  8. last january Terry called Trevor and told him to go out back of the house and burry his infielders glove , cause he was now the right fielder. Trevor struggled at 3b over the year , but showed flashes of ability and enough of a bat ,that the front office should let him run with the position , there were to many other areas that needed improvement or upgrades then trevor....
  9. Personally i would rather see brian ,rather then pedro....just see a higher upside
  10. just another reason to cheer for the front office.... Marcier Izturius could have been added at around 4 million a year ...
  11. He didnt listen to his SABR guys on Kevin Correia did he?
  12. the twins llc are a sucsess if your the Pohlads, there making vucue dinero . only way to change there thinking is to stop paying for there product....
  13. Sorry to disagree , it is here that most think Terry is doing a good job , else where they and I are in fact calling for his head.... most do not believe Mr. Ryan or Mr. Gardenhire can acquire or modivate players to a world series...
  14. Saunders and Brandon Webb is my guess
  15. Agreed 125 games behind the plate is insane , however if he took Butreas games and approached 90-100 games or so , i have no problem with that. there is absolutly no reason to carry Drew butrea, either on the 25 or 40 man roster,if 1 of our catchers gets hurt , he can be added then.
  16. Or we could have owners who wanted to win...... Yes i understand Pohlads want to win , as long as it doesnt cost anything or take up there time
  17. other thins? they opening a diet center?
  18. sounds better then escobar to me
  19. Personally i think Terry is setting it up to blame the scouts if Correia fails and to take credit for him if he is mediocre.
  20. So we applaud 3 m.a.s.h.victums a future reliever and a single A player?
  21. Are you sure they are dominican? i understood that they applied for mexican residency
  22. Hey we coughed up 10 million for Correia , what do you want to do bankrupt the team?
  23. I think everyone has the cart before the horse, lets see what Darren has and Benson does in spring training, if Hicks is the flat out best player so be it , but if Mastroanni and Benson both are out shinning him , let Hicks start the season in rochester
  24. Im guessing if Hicks breaks spring training as a twin , he will only be here till the next big thing arrives and then will go the way of Span
