    This is a good idea. There are enough non team specific topics that a talented writer could get exposure across all of these related sites.
  2. Linus
    Missions is a very cool name.
  3. Linus
    These are the questions many of us have about Twins development philosophies.

    The point of my post is a mediocre player on a good contract doesn’t get you closer to winning. Good players get you closer to winning especially at a position where offensive production is important. These good players can be obtained in a variety of ways so you can skip your lecture about how mid market teams acquire players.

    I think your reading comprehension is lacking. You don’t need to tell me how I feel about France so see you later.

    Here, here. Hoping Buck is back and neither have any long term consequences. I can’t get the thought out of my mind how badly Mauer and Morneau were affected by their concussions. It took quite a while and I don’t think either were ever the same after. Both probably had more previous brain trauma then Correa or Buxton so maybe it’s different. Anyway should be a great weekend at Target Field.

    Maybe they will start giving out a trophy at the end of the year for most WAR per payroll dollar spent.

    Hmmm apparently you didn’t read this part of my post.

    Sometimes we just need to take a step back and get out of the weeds. This specific situation aside if you can’t give McCusker a legit chance now with his production at AAA and the lineup they are rolling out there, when will you be able to do it?

    I think this is a false question. France is meeting what is reasonably expected of him at a low price. So good for Ty France - I’m not going to be critical of him. However it doesn’t mean we shouldn’t expect much more from this position. I know they aren’t signing Pete Alonzo but they can make a trade or develop one a first baseman that can hit. I reject the premise that “good value” from France is anything we should celebrate or even accept.

    Cleveland CF with a horrible route on that ball. Goes sideways and then can’t catch up to it.
  12. Linus
    Love it. Stay out of the dp
  13. Linus
    Nice bunt.
  14. Linus
    Why do I feel like I’ve spent a lot of time over the last 15 years watching Carl Willis stroll to the mound?
  15. Linus
    Well if you can’t slide you can’t play baseball.
  16. Linus
    Dive in head first. Do something.
  17. Linus
    To clarify I was talking in the field. Agreed Culpepper has the higher floor with the bat but is also older.
  18. Linus
    Royce - you gotta slide. The Twins haven’t been making as many bad plays but that one stunk. Basically eliminated a prime scoring chance.
  19. Linus
    Agreed. It would be nice to see if he can stick at SS. However he is getting very few starts there as Culpepper is the primary SS. This will be unpopular but I believe Winokur has a higher ceiling at SS then Culpepper.

    I think the whole concept of contrition and apologies is baloney. Who knows if they are even sincere? In my view you committed the act so now you live with the consequences and all the other stuff is unimportant. You don’t get to hit the undo button because you say something people want to hear. As far as the references to religion in this thread, it means nothing to me and I’m guessing many others. No place for it on this site.
  21. Linus
    Another funny article that isnt funny.
  22. Linus
    I remember that he had some good stuff. He could make good hitters look bad but it just never came together for him in the bigs.
  23. Linus
    Flexor strain for Coulombe. Yikes that’s frequently a precursor to TJ.
  24. Linus
    The biggest takeaway I see in this comparison is beware of the rebuild. You are guaranteed to suck for several years and there is no guarantee it will work.
  25. Linus
    If Falvey is so smart why didn’t he keep Coulombe a couple years ago instead of several stiffs that were sent packing quickly?
