    The weak link in this article is that neither Falvey or Levine were the primary decision makers. We have no idea what their opinions were of the decisions.
  2. Linus
    My point is that we don’t have to accept mediocrity in the field at SS. Get a strong defender at SS and let Polanco be the best all around second basemen in baseball because he would be elite at second base
  3. Linus
    The risk / reward on that play is ominous. The reason you don’t do it is there frequently is “the perfect throw”. It gains you so little advantage you should never take that risk. People need to analyze this like a poker hand and it would never happen

    Since the other thread got locked for some reason Laudner is the worst color commentator I’ve heard. He has to be gone. Good news is that Smeltzer and Thorpe look like two potential effective lefties for the future
  5. Linus
    I hate Laudner in the booth. He never shuts up and comes across as lecturing.
  6. Linus
    This is an easy question. Other than Rogers and maybe Duffy they can all go.
  7. Linus
    Get ready for pucker time. The Twins lead will be down to 5 at the All Star break
  8. Linus
    Hard pass. I don’t care how hard they throw- I want pitchers with command
  9. Linus
    If the twins take most of the contract he should cost a PTBNL
  10. Linus
    I thought he looked good today and he is only 23 which seems weird. I think he might be a solution. Like him a lot more than Gonsalves
  11. Linus
    I’m actually happy. I’d rather have all of them get a break and recharge for the second half. The all star game doesn’t matter that much anymore
  12. Linus
    I don’t know if Syndegaard is the right guy but all prospects should be in play with the possible exception of Graterol and Balazovic
  13. Linus
    I think I see signs of progress. He is laying off pitches out of the zone lately and his swing looks a little more compact. Similarly even though he had an o fer I thought Buxton had a good day at the plate. He didn’t chase at all - swung at nothing but strikes
  14. Linus
    This. There has been some sloppy baseball played in the last month. It hasn’t cost them too much but it will. This is where I would love to know how Rocco handles this stuff behind the scenes. Is it always kumbaya or is he getting after guys for dumb/sloppy plays?
  15. Linus
    Nei, takk
  16. Linus
    Just have him watch Garver in bp and then get in the cage right after and imitate him. He’ll never get that short and quick to the ball but he will get better
  17. Linus
    Especially when neither Magill or Morin are particularly good.
  18. Linus
    Let’s not gloss over two errors by Adrianza. That’s the ballgame
  19. Linus
    No pressure Jose. All we need is 9 scoreless tonight. Seriously this is a big start - have to stay out of the pen
  20. Linus
    Huh? Forfeit the game. You and Dick share the same paranoia about extra inning games
  21. Linus
    This is th kind of deal you give up serious prospects for, not two months of Madbum
  22. Linus
    Some of the proposals are extreme for a 2 month rental of an aging starter. I want more pitching but we need to calm down a little
  23. Linus
    Here is my new age analytics formula. It doesn’t matter how hard you throw or what your spin rate is if you don’t have control. Trevor May who I really like is example A
  24. Linus
    My either. I start twitching like B Parker just thinking about it
  25. Linus
    He needs to mimic Garver or Kepler. He would hit a lot of homers and be a complete hitter. That have much more direct swings to the hitting zone
