  1. I’m with RB on this one. Condition your pitchers to go two or more and the chronic running out of relievers will end
  2. DSP of course but the concessionaire but control the prices. It is a little strange how he slammed his own related product
  3. I don’t know this but perhaps the concessions are contracted out and that company sets the prices?
  4. This. There is no making a silk purse out of a sows ear. This is on Falvine
  5. The big question with Miggy is whether can regain his rookie year approach. If not it’s not important when he comes back
  6. Many of us pointed out that due to the swing and miss nature of our lineup the offense will be inconsistent. And everyone except Falvine apparently knew our bullpen would suck
  7. He’s had 3 good starts out of 4. Coming off TJ I’d say that’s pretty good
  8. This is depressing. Romero has a chance the rest are where they belong
  9. I think we are finding out whether it is Molitor or Baldelli there is no such thing expert management of a crappy bullpen. This is on Falvine and their hubris
  10. The Twins are fun to watch and not just because they are winning. They have several really interesting players. I disagree with most about bullpen usage. This is smoke and mirrors and guys are pitching a lot. Not sustainable
  11. So what we gave up in draft pick compensation for Lynn nets is a nothing prospect. Another move that doesn’t move us forward
  12. My main concerns going into the season were the bullpen and the all or nothing nature of the lineup at the plate. I’ve been surprised by the bullpen but today is an example of the pitfalls of having a lot of swing and miss guys. Eflin was begging to get smoked and they couldn’t put anything together
  13. Very interesting. I hope that this new approach leads to greater command. I think most fans are too focused on velocity right now. Plenty of hard throwers in independent baseball
  14. If you have a bad bullpen the only thing riskier than signing free agent relievers is not singing free agent relievers. That had nothing to lose and did nothing I don’t get them
  15. Good article about a bad situation. How the boy wonders didn’t snap up a couple proven arms is beyond me
  16. Love the spring training optimism but this lineup looks like it could strike out a record amount and struggle to get on base. Lots of solo homers in our future
  17. So if you don’t hit the ball hard you hitting stats suffer? I didn’t know
  18. Their bullpen was bad last year. This past off season many free agent relievers were available for cheap. They did nothing to improve a bunch of question marks. I guess I don’t understand spin rates
  19. Don’t overlook the obvious. Sánchez was once a great pitcher. Pérez has never been which doesn’t mean he can’t succeed but the comparison isn’t apt
  20. Yep. Miggy is a conundrum. I think he has made mistakes but not necessarily this time around. Bottom line is that he needs to be on the field to achieve his potential and that is getting harder to envision
  21. I love Polancos bat and approach at the plate. He is not a SS on a great team but could be a plus second baseman. Frustrating that the Twins won’t make moves for the long term future
  22. Good question. I’m conflicted about this situation but am concerned that no matter the circumstances he is losing chances to advance his skills which is clearly necessary
  23. I have my doubts about Sano and started a thread a while ago about it. This does appear to be an accident but I am curious if he had shoes on during this celebration. It’s too bad that he apparently worked really hard this off season and will have a delayed start. He needs all the ABs he can get to figure out how pitchers are attacking him now
  24. 3 stories on bounce back candidates pretty much covers the whole team. Perhaps we should get players we don’t have to wish and hope that they will contribute. I don’t get this FO
