  1. Mollie said yesterday that Breslow is the leading candidate. Now we just need to plug Vogel song into the 5th starter spot and the youth movement is complete.
  2. It's an interesting topic. I'm sure it's real but quantifying it seems to be difficult. The count in which the "framed" pitch would be huge. The old 2 and 1 is way different than 1 and 2 theory.
  3. I think Polanco is more ready at this point.
  4. Dozier just grounded out to the pitcher. Bad non-move.
  5. Danny Santana - player of the game.
  6. Has Garver even played? Giminez seems to be playing alot.
  7. Perhaps it's not wise to stereotype people unless you want it done for people born after 1970.....
  8. I hope May gets a chance. His stuff looks good and he's in his prime. He's one of the few Twins pitchers that could be here when they are good.
  9. Last year he threw fastballs and cutters.....and everything is hard.
  10. Hughes has never shown that he has good feel for off speed stuff. Comparing him to pitchers who do (like Radke) is misleading. I suppose he could learn a lights out change up at this point in his career but it seems unlikely.
  11. I guess I just don't get the mentality. I think Molitor should be putting the entire pitching staff on notice that last year is unacceptable. IDK not much has changed.
  12. Agreed. But Gibson, Hughes et AL have been horrible. No way guys should have a pre-determined spot.
  13. This is crazy to me. You had the worst rotation in MLB last year and you lock in 80% of the same stuff? With two young starters waiting in the wings?
  14. I saw in a notes section (Strib) that Molitor said barring some significant change his starters are Santana, Hughes, Gibson and Santiago. Berrios, May, et al will battle for the 5th spot. This shocked me that he would say something like this so early. How can he be so comfortable saying this after last year? In my book Santana is a lock and the rest can battle it out with no guarantees.
  15. I thought analytics proved that lineups don't matter?
  16. I think all of hope you are right especially because he seems like a good dude. However he lacks the variety you described in order to be successful with less velocity.
  17. I don't believe you are alone on that one.......but water under the bridge.
  18. Agree to disagree. I'm not letting go Grossman take any at bats away from those two.
  19. Umm..no. it had nothing to do with it. MLB organizations have scouting resources well in advance silly sample sizes but rip away if you want.

    Yep that's how it works....
  21. Understood but nobody should assume anything about young prospects/players until actually proven.
  22. Rosario and Kepler need to play. Nobody knows what their long term potential or splits will be until they play-alot.
  23. I think the over / number is really close. I am taking the over with conviction.
