  1. Well said. I’m glad I got to watch him play and appreciated what I was seeing.
  2. It is strange they aren’t trying some different things in the pen. They have a lot of work to do in this area.
  3. I’m surprised that you have that much personal information about Jeter. I want good players and will worry about leadership later. Your mileage may vary.
  4. I’m not talking about the clubhouse and whether they believe in him is kind of the question. Gimenez provides nothing for the future including leadership as he will be gone in a month. What is real is that Astudillo has a chance to be a catcher if given a chance
  5. I think the whole leadership thing is overblown. I would rather have Astudillo getting innings behind the plate yet Gimenez is playing frequently.
  6. Very strange. We need Gimenez like we need a hole in the head. I generally like Molly but this veteran security blanket thing is silly.
  7. I think the characterization that they inherited a mess is inaccurate. The farm system was highly ranked and had quickly supplied Buxton Sano Kepler Polanco and Berrios. There are plausible excuses to give the new FO but this isn’t one of them
  8. I like their drafts. Other than that I don’t see anything transformational. They given away substantial talent with their bizarre 40 man roster management
  9. I would rather have Rosario, Chargois and Rodriguez. So far I think managing the margins of the roster has basically been a negative grade for the FO
  10. Great info - thanks for contributing. Even healthy I have no interest in bringing Morrison back
  11. Has anyone seen reports on his fielding? Some were saying he wouldn’t stick at SS. That would obviously play into this
  12. The other option is to take one more year of arbitration then if he continues like extend him the QO and maybe get another year or draft pick
  13. With his bat which we still will enjoy at 2nd base. His arm is just not good enough to provide above average defense at the most critical spot on the diamond. He can be a plus fielder at 2nd and then we can go get a plus fielder at SS
  14. Polanco is not a starting SS on a winning team but is their best 2nd base option. I would slide him over and figure out a solution for SS
  15. Royce Lewis doesn’t even get a mention. We must be flush with hitters!
  16. In the “prospect community” you could find people that would give Mother Theresa a 35 for makeup. The guy has been good at every level eventually I’m excited to see what happens if he uses his change up more
  17. It was a sloppy game by the Twins in a number of different ways. To blame it on the manager isn’t accurate. Lynn has to be better than what he has shown so far
  18. He’s ok. I think his throwing and blocking ability are sub par. Who knows how heavily to weight his framing skills. He does deserve credit for the number of innings caught
  19. Falvine haven’t proven a thing in the area of pitching. Their two obvious attempts last year were Haley and Breslow. Both were flops and they compounded their error by hanging on to both far too long
  20. Or to use old stats Darvish could go 18-8 and whoever would get rolled out as a fifth starter would likely go something like 7-12. In other words the Twins win 11 more games
  21. Why does everyone assume Sano will be suspended? He’s not been charged with a crime and there is no evidence to prove his guilt. If we add it has to be a right handed outfielder who plays above average defense. GoGo might be worth it
  22. I've had the same problem ever since radishes said Josh Willingham was a better fielder than Torii Hunter.
  23. Agreed. He will be their best reliever by far. Let's go to highest and best use.
