  1. This just in - Lindberg baby kidnapped! As much as I get annoyed with some of the obsessions of TD posters, it's still the best place for real baseball discussion by far.
  2. I like Mollie as a guy but sooner or later the horrible fundamentals has to come back to him. Grossman getting picked off on a hit and run is just bad.
  3. Would you do this trade: santana, nick Gordon and kohl Stewart for jurickson profar?
  4. .321 and on pace for 22 homers and 42 steals. Don't really see the need for the article.
  5. If you are as lumbering as Vargas you need to be playing careful, station to station baseball. Agreed that the way the ball was hit made it complicated.
  6. Mauer is an excellent baserunner for a big guy. Can't remember the last time he made a mistake on the basepaths.
  7. Well maybe I spoke too soon.
  8. I like Vargas better than Arcia.
  9. Bad baseball comes in a variety of ways.
  10. Dick and Roy are raving about the Twins getting to Hamels while giving Gibson credit for battling and giving his team a chance. They pretty much had the same start.
  11. On this night of positivity I would like to say that Gibson, ah sucks. Half the time he pitches, including tonight, he looks afraid to throw a strike. I think he needs a big old burley catcher to threaten him with his life if he doesn't start challenging hitters.
  12. I definitely would not go big after a catcher. My new theory in the enlightened concussion world is to avoid big contracts for catchers. I definitely would put May back in the rotation.
  13. I would not trade him unless you got a really good pitching prospect in return. The Twins can be decent next year and simply don't have enough starters or potential starters. If we trade him we will scouring the bargain bin next year for starters.
  14. I think Terry Ryan is a good person. Situations like this are why he is well respected.
  15. Exactly. Hopefully Buxton and Rosario can join him as effective players on both sides of the ball and then we will be on to something.
  16. If someone wants to overpay for him I'll listen but otherwise I would keep him. I think the Twins could be decent next year and they simply don't have enough starters.
  17. He's made a few mistakes in the field but nothing that won't go away with experience. The key is has all the tools necessary to be a very good fielder.
  18. This and that he is well rounded. He has some power runs well, has a pretty good arm and will end up being a very good fielder with some experience.
  19. I would have sent park down and let Arcia have a months worth of at bats. Having said that my guess is that he would be dfa anyway. I think Vargas has a better chance of being a successful dh and under no circumstances would I consider Arcia a regular outfielder.
  20. Plouffe has to go. I would put Abad in the has to go category as well. The rest have some strings attached. If you keep Dozier Polanco should get moved for value and vice versa. I would keep Santana as they need all the starting pitching they can get. I would trade Susuki if I could get something for him. If not I would sign him for cheap to be Tha backup next year.
  21. I think an unwritten rule of baseball is that you have to hit any player wearing a vampire mouthguard.
  22. This. Perhaps we've got lucky on a guy someone else gave up on too soon. Or not but certainly worth a look.
