    Pulling Smeltzer was the right call, he probably wasn't making it through a 3rd time through the order without giving up more run(s).
  2. Danchat
    Maybe we can trade him for Odorizzi again? ?
  3. Danchat
    Palacios has the look of a quality backup SS - he'll probably never hit that well in the majors, but defensively he's got everything you need to play SS. Got to wonder if he can be the next Adrianza for us, or someone else.

    Arraez is a beast! Nobody slaps singles like he does.
  5. Danchat
    I've heard rumors that Baldelli doesn't get very much freedom to make decisions, and there is a ton of collaboration with the front office when making lineups / bullpen pecking order / etc. I don't think he makes that big of impact on the team, positive or negative.
  6. Danchat
    Well, yes, I suspect the Blue Jays will score more, but my first statement is a fact at this point. If we do lose this one you could consider it a "tailspin", but not a 'complete' one since we did blow them out in the first game.
  7. Danchat
    Weird how we got dominated by Berrios, yet have decimated Kikuchi and Gausman. So much for the Twins going into complete tailspin in this series!
  8. Danchat
    I think Woods-Richardson should be a candidate to be promoted very soon... I would think about preparing Canterino for a bullpen role, and I'd keep Varland at AA.
  9. Danchat
    This is going to be a real test for Smeltzer... especially if the Twins defense has problems with fly balls like the Jays are.
  10. Danchat
    I'm not convinced Sabato is going to reach the majors leagues, and even if he does, he won't have half the career Sano has had.
  11. Danchat
    He's a very good LF/RF (he won a minor league gold glove award), and presumably is decent in CF, but should probably be below the two names you listed.
  12. Danchat
    Cano seemed to have figured out his control issues in AAA this year, but he's right back to being unable to throw strikes. They need to get him back to AAA and work on that, or he's just not going to work as a major leaguer.
  13. Danchat
    Congrats to Berrios, went 7 innings and got 13 Ks. There's nothing like the Twins lineup helping a struggling starter!
  14. Danchat
    Eh, the arachnophobics would be offended by that, can't do that!
  15. Danchat
    Well that was a shockingly good inning from Moran.
  16. Danchat
    Funny how Garlick went from having a horrid Spring Training to being perhaps the best hitter in baseball against lefties for a stretch... just as expected!

    I dunno about Jax... there just aren't any good options outside of Duran or Smith in the bullpen.
  19. Danchat
    Well... regression was bound to strike for Pagan. Oof.
  20. Danchat
    How many scoreless innings in a row has this been? 21?

    Looks like Celestino will be back for the Toronto series, and Ryan won't.

  23. Danchat
    BBref has him at -0.1 WAR, so if not a liability, he's a replacement level player that is forcing the bullpen to throw a minimum of 5 innings whenever he toes the rubber. But yes, right now there aren't any clearly better alternatives...
  24. Danchat
    I agree, but the Rangers have actually stopped using him as a catcher since he got injured May 8th, and it's possible that his catching days are over - at least, as a primary catcher. But we could really use his bat right now.
  25. Danchat
    Well, on the bright side, Megill looks pretty darn good so far. Maybe he can help in more important situations?
