    All we have to do is hit six dingers a game and we will win.
  2. Linus
    Of all the things that I worry about my beloved Twins this is not one of them.
  3. Linus
    I’m sick of RRC. Roccos Rest Camp. He’s costing us games protecting players that shouldn’t need protection
  4. Linus
    I see no evidence in pitching depth in the rotation or the bullpen. We needed two more proven arms but our FO knew better. Now it’s going to be like a couple years ago when they had to cut half the bullpen in June.

    Rocco said we don’t have a set closer so it should be easy enough to let him get some lower leverage innings. You are going to have to stick with the guy for a while. I have always felt that they are one reliever short this year.
  6. Linus
    No kidding.
  7. Linus
    Our starters are all veterans with years of endurance built up. They shouldn’t treat them any differently than any other year. You also might want to let a reliever pitch two innings more frequently.

    Ok I’m a curmudgeon. Walk up songs are dumb. I’d rather have the classic organ music

    The problem is these aren’t early results. This is basically what he has been for a while now. He’s a useful player but fairly easily replaceable at this point. Up until now it was always potential that people were excited about. He’s now CJ Cron with a bit more upside.

    I think he gets criticized too much for his fielding. It’s understood that he is not a gold glover. But to be competent at multiple different positions is really valuable especially catcher. While you don’t want hold to fill in long term as an in game sub he is pretty valuable.
  11. Linus
    He hit like that all of last year. I really like Buck he tries so hard and never complains.
  12. Linus
    I said it seems counterintuitive. I wasn’t disagreeing. It also why the the fresh concrete theory that people ridiculed is true. Concrete cures for several years by giving off water vapor. When you consider the massive amount of concrete poured in a new stadium it’s no wonder Target field was a launching pad early and now is not.

    I think it is a good sign that he is drawing some walks. His rookie year he seemed to wait the pitchers out and make them throw strikes. That went away and he has been a mess since. Like I have said repeatedly he will run into 30 cookies a year but that’s about it.
  14. Linus
    It seems counterintuitive but Harmon always maintained that the ball carried better on a humid day.
  15. Linus
    I hope he gets to 572 and no more.
  16. Linus
    You are the best Chief.
  17. Linus
    I believe this is satire.
  18. Linus
    This is a fun idea. For sure we will see some of these guys this year.
  19. Linus
    I really think Broxton should make the team. They need a legit backup CF Celestino needs to play everyday at AA. With the amount Rocco likes to rest guys a backup would play quite a bit.
  20. Linus
    I think Jorge will be one of the best all around second baseman in the AL. He’s a proven hitter and I think after an adjustment period will be a top notch defender at second base.
  21. Linus
    I don’t agree with the negative comment on Polanco. I didn’t like him at SS but he could be a really good second baseman.
  22. Linus
    For a relatively small cost of $2.5 million I would sign Tyler Clippard
  23. Linus
    Very interesting article. Thanks
  24. Linus
    This is not a playoff contending team (as in advancing in the playoffs). They are at least one arm short in the bullpen and their offense is feast or famine. Guess which one you get facing playoff pitching?
  25. Linus
    Before the 2019 season I predicted the Twins offense would be feast or famine based on lots of power with low obp. Happily I was wrong. Unhappily I’m afraid my original prediction is coming true. I also think we are overplaying the strategy of bringing marginal pitchers and counting on Wes Johnson to fix them.
