    Ok. Anybody with direct TV what channel is FSN plus? I tried 668-2 and no go.
  2. Linus
    The bomb he hit yesterday was right of center. He doesn't have to pull to get power which makes him really dangerous
  3. Linus
    His first start had a pretty low percentage strikes which is the main thing they are watching. Interesting piece in THE WSJ about Strasburg Syndegaard and others pitching exclusively from the stretch as it simplifies mechanics and doesn't diminish their velocity. Yet the twins added to his windup last year. Makes you wonder...

    82-74

    I would argue that the youth movement is mostly here. They need Berries and Meija to come through and they will be close.

    Doc - I love ya but calm yourself.

    This has been pretty much his MO for his career. I don't think he is a very confident person and I fear this is who he is as a major league pitcher.
  7. Linus
    This. 3 time batting champ MVP and gold glove. This is why he was extended.
  8. Linus
    I believe Falvey places a great deal of credence in wOBA.
  9. Linus
    Really? We won the first game can't we just lay off for a little while?
  10. Linus
    I hope you are right Nick. If we judge them on actions it is basically no different than the past.
  11. Linus
    I'm not interested in his weight or the traumatic effect of playing right field for 8 weeks. I'm interested in seeing production and I feel more confident in Buxton s bat right now.
  12. Linus
    Adrianza is an interesting player. If he hits at all he could be a far better shortstop than anything we have. I hope they can get him to AAA somehow.
  13. Linus
    Chili Davis to Kirby: "Bunt my ass, hit it out of here and let's go home"

    Duffeys problem is his fastball. It sits around 90 and the command is inconsistent. Unless he is lights out with his curve good hitters just wait on the fastball.
  15. Linus
    Grossman is likely worth more to the Twins than anything we would receive in return. He provides a right handed bat for our lefthanded corner outfielders and first baseman and he provide obp which this team dearly needs. If could even be mediocre in the field he would be valuable to the twins.
  16. Linus
    I think it will be interesting to watch vargas number of abs compared to Park. If Kenny doesn't get many of the dh turns soon that tells me that Park wins the job.
  17. Linus
    Send Haley back. He's done nothing and I don't see anything in him that warranted the top rule 5 selection. Do not compound the mistake by keeping him around for no reason.
  18. Linus
    Right now Santiago is a young guy. At least relatively speaking as his probable replacement would be Vogelsong.
  19. Linus
    I would be the GM that TD hates. I would rarely if ever spend big money on a free agent. Instead I would plow that money into scouting and international signings. Scott Bowman kept the Canadiens dynasty alive by trading popular productive players before they hit their decline. Free agency is mostly fools gold.
  20. Linus
    I guess I go back to my thoughts before spring training. Santana is a lock: everyone else is fighting for a job. Any other path denies the fact the Twins had the worst rotation in baseball last year. Why Mollie and the new front office are so comfortable with this collection is beyond me.
  21. Linus
    Would be pretty cool if he ended up being a pitching coach of sorts with the Twins.
  22. Linus
    I understand your point. The fact is the natural DL stint for him would be 30 - 45 days. Which of course doesn't exist. I guess what happens in the next few weeks will decide.
  23. Linus
    He most certainly go on the DL. He hasn't even pitched to live batters yet.
  24. Linus
    I think Kennys is going to regret his decision to play or sit in the WBC.
  25. Linus
    I keep waiting for Falvey to dramatically remove his mask only to find Terry Ryan underneath. Ya know kind of like all star wrestling.
