  1. I don’t have confidence in them anymore. The bad decision pile is growing much faster than the good decision pile. Their stubbornness in sticking with their process even when it’s obviously wrong is beyond frustrating. End result: 7 years in and we have a 500 team in a horrible division. They really overhauled the analytics department and minor league development staff but if it doesn’t result in good players and good teams what difference does it make? In some ways I see the minor league development as worse than before. It seems all our players are fundamentally poor. Time to move on.
  2. I really like that he is a well rounded hitter. We need more of that on our big league club.
  3. This is some fun news for a fan base that could use some fun. I would put him at third right now. He has the hands and the arm to be a great 3rd baseman. Lewis can play second or cf.
  4. Winder with two really good outings in a row. And why was was Wallner in St Paul?
  5. Thomas would be my choice. The Twins have needed a right handed hitting outfielder for years and there isn’t any on the farm getting ready for next year.
  6. Couldn’t agree more. It’s been the same for several years and yet the FO sticks to their “process” which doesn’t work.
  7. Gray is not getting traded because a team would have to give us something better than the comp pick. That won’t happen for ten starts of Gray.
  8. If they can solve the right handed hitting outfield problem with 3 years control I would move E Rod.
  9. I see the problem as this: he’s another prospect that can hit but is really a dh for a position. This means the bar to clear for his hitting is really high. I hope he clears it.
  10. I would dust off the Time Machine and go back to the last several off seasons and acquire a good right handed hitting outfielder and 3 bullpen arms so I wouldn’t have to pay exorbitant trade deadline prices.
  11. Castro s outfield play has caused 3-4 runs against in the last two games. Defense matters.
  12. This. Max appears to have lost a step and doesn’t play the field with a great deal of intensity anymore.
  13. None of this means a thing as he has worked a handful of innings. It’s more a commentary on the current state of our bullpen.
  14. Max doesn’t have the same intensity in the field. I no longer think he is an elite fielder.
  15. If the Twins did this even in part to get Lopez closer to his family then I will give the FO a sincere accolade.
  16. Two bullpen arms and a competent right handed hitting outfielder. You could copy and paste this every year for as far back as when they obtained Jake Cave. One would the the genius boys would see a pattern here.
  17. This not the fault of Moran Pagan or Ortega. They are trying their best. This is not Rocco’s fault as he has to use someone other than Duran and Jax. The FO assembled this pen and once again it’s not good I’ve been predicting this since spring training. They have their special plan for building bullpens and it doesn’t work but they are too stubborn to change. So we will use up more of our thin farm system to fix this at the trade deadline.
  18. This. I’m not a huge fan of Falvine but they really made some key acquisitions. Farmer has been extremely valuable as has Taylor and others.
  19. Seriously this is Legion Ball stuff and it happens way too often.
  20. Not anywhere close to taking the risk of getting thrown at third when you can be in scoring position at 2 nd. The percentages aren’t even close.
  21. BS. This is a basic play. There is no point in trying to gain 3 rd base on that play. If you don’t know why then you don’t know baseball which is apparently a problem with the Twins.
  22. That was a Celestino level baserunning play. I cannot believe how these types of happen in the big leagues. Stupid!
