    Adrianza is very smooth. I would like to move on from Giminez.
  2. Linus
    Let's consider it a win that Vargas didn't get optioned.
  3. Linus
    Kind of like Archers slider....

    I have posted this elsewhere but I see a trend pitching to Sano. Fastballs up and sliders low and away. I hate to say it but Sano is going to hit a rough patch until he adjusts. I think the book is out as he loves to golf those low fastballs.
  5. Linus
    The Os pitched him up in the zone and he struggled. I think he's going to see a steady diet of that until he adjusts.
  6. Linus
    He throws hard IIRC. I wonder what his secondary pitches are like. Maybe he should be in the conversation with Burdi as first call ups.
  7. Linus
    It's a Canadian expression.

    One of the great things about depth is the competition it breeds. Eddie is sitting because Grossman is playing better. He's going to have to do something about that if he wants to play.
  9. Linus
    I think he has lots of charisma. Reminds me of Puck-definitely has the makings of a team leader.
  10. Linus
    Couple observations: Giminez got very predictable in his game calling. First pitch fastballs nearly every time in the latter innings. Don't get bringing in Rogers to face several righties. Presley needs be able to get 4-5 outs there. Lots of pitches up in the zone to Sano. I have a feeling that's all he is going to see for a while. And hell, we swept the Birds!

    I would make a Dozier for pitching trade in a minute. I would even throw in a prospect not named Gordon to get best value. No way do I trade Erv or Santiago right now. Let's accumulate as much pitching as we can and see what happens. If they completely fall apart somehow then I would trade Santiago but I'm hanging on to Erv.
  12. Linus
    I'm getting less impressed with Castro every game.
  13. Linus
    I really thought Molly was going to run him out there for a third inning last night. Another couple bullpen and maybe he could go 5-6 as a starter. I didn't like the idea before but I don't see another alternative.
  14. Linus
    Which internal prospect are you proposing?
  15. Linus
    Adrianza looks very smooth in the field. My guess is that they want him and Esco as trading Dozier is still a possibility.
  16. Linus
    It's not that complicated. Vargas is struggling against lefties right now and Esco is hitting them well. For one AB Molitor figured he had a better chance of getting a base hit with Esco. Vargas played both games so I don't think Molly hates him.
  17. Linus
    This is probably a more realistic approach to improvement this year than trading for a starter.
  18. Linus
    Dave, would you want to bring up Burdi first just to see if the answer is here?
  19. Linus
    Honestly I don't know what I would do probably nothing while we are winning but neither Castro or giminez is good enough to block a legit prospect.
  20. Linus
    He would have to go back to aaa to get stretched out so it ain't gonna happen.
  21. Linus
    This. He is going to be frustrating at times but given enough at bats the extra base hits will accumulate. Plus the added playing time may help him prove his eye at the plate.
  22. Linus
    Wise
  23. Linus
    Ok. Pretty much screwed up that inning.
  24. Linus
    Well they are trying to win games and Kenny isn't swinging great.
  25. Linus
    Grossman has his back pocket out. As if anybody much less the youth of Minnesota give a bleep if he chews.
