  1. I think if the Twins had any realistic options, they'd send Duffey down right away. Milone's already up, Pat Dean is Pat Dean, and Meyer's still hurt, I believe. They should really think about bringing back May as a starter... we could really use him in the rotation.
  2. It's good to see that TR has acknowledged the error in his ways. Thankfully Kepler is beginning to take RF over just like I hoped, so Sano won't have to embarrass himself out there. I find the link to DFS on Fangraphs interesting. The individual breakdown for the Twins is here: Max Kepler +2 Byron Buxton +1 Eddie Rosario -2 Danny Santana -3 Oswaldo Arcia -4 Robbie Grossman -7 Miguel Sano -9 I'm interested to know how they calculate this stat. What gives Buxton just a +1? And how has Grossman already accumulated a -7?
  3. Looking at their Baseball Reference page, it looks like the Mets are trying Gilmartin out as a starter at AAA now that he has options. He has a 4.48 ERA with good peripherals so far. It looks like they're trying to figure out if he'll be a reliever or starter.
  4. Kepler's having a great game so far - a triple shy of the cycle. Let's hope he keeps up his hitting.
  5. This is another reason why the Twins are so bad. They continually trot out outfielders who have next to no experience in fielding and they hand the other teams runs. Dan San just handed the Yanks a double and Sano was doing it before he got hurt. Can we get the infielders out of the outfield?
  6. Jones is going to AA. I would guess he won't sniff the majors until next season at the earliest. At least he's going not be the next Gilmartin. Let's hope Jones can get healthy and help the bullpen in the future.
  7. I am sure glad the Twins didn't trade for Shields. That would have been a big mishap...
  8. My goodness, Suzuki. I'm pretty sure I'm dreaming. What an AB and to finish off with a HR.... WOW!
  9. Well, it's just classic Twins vs Yankees. The Twins blow whatever lead they have and now the Yanks are about to take the lead... and then we get to see Chapman in the 9th.
  10. Don't forget we also sent them Alex Tapia, who's in single A for the Rays.
  11. And Jepsen blows another lead...
  12. Oh goody, Dan San is batting in the #2 spot already. I had a feeling this would happen. One other thing... didn't Pineda have surgery on a torn labrum? I think he missed two seasons and he hasn't been himself since. This is what Perkins will have to go through...
  13. I can start now... but it'd be nice to know what job I was hired for.
  14. Demote Park, play Sano at DH. Boom, problem solved.
  15. It's good to see Escobar finally hit his first homer of the year. Now, let's see some more! Well, not tonight, but in the coming days.
  16. I expect Arcia to land somewhere and he'll platoon and only face righties and he'll hit 20+ HRs a year. He's not going to be just like David Ortiz, but maybe Ortiz lite.
  17. Uh, why did Danny Santana pinch hit for Buxton there? Doesn't Buxton need to get all the plate appearances he can get? I just know Molitor is ready to plug in Santana as a starter for the rest of the season... I think Buxton may be going back down soon.
  18. Oh boy... this isn't surprising, but I think we all have that feeling that Arcia will rake for whichever team he plays for next. The writing was on the wall... Molly loves Santana and doesn't like Arcia, so Oswaldo's gone. This'll probably look like a terrible move in 3 years.
  19. Yeah, I know he's hitting mostly singles, but at least he's not terrible.
  20. Wow, Suzuki is batting .250. He's stealthily become a better hitter as of late.
  21. Rogers isn't looking too good... then again, who is?
  22. How many singles have they hit? It's like death by papercuts! Also, my jinx [2 days ago] has worked to perfection.
