  1. I think you worded this incorrectly... I think Arcia's DFA is impending. Molitor likes Santana much better as an OF. Arcia's only hope to hang on the roster is to hope Park gets sent down or Buxton/Kepler go back to AAA.
  2. Uh-oh... Duffey's in a little trouble...
  3. Protip: Post this once Jepsen has gotten out of the inning.
  4. On a completely unrelated note, looking at the sidebar to the right of this thread, has the Vikings Journal been taken over by people posting spam?
  5. I think Grossman's power is a mirage. His 20 walks are not a mirage to me. Grossman seems to be very disciplined at the plate and even if he falls into a slump, he'll have a high OBP. I think he profiles as a 4th outfielder in the future, as a solid backup to a Rosario-Buxton-Kepler OF in 2017, hopefully.
  6. You'll appreciate my jinx once the Twins finish one game worse than the Braves so that they can get the 1st overall pick in next year's draft.
  7. Is it just me, or whenever the Twins aren't hitting in runs with HRs, they're hitting in runs with groundouts... Well, at least they're not striking out a billion times.
  8. It looks like the Twins will stay undefeated against the Angels, at least until tomorrow. They're the only team they can consistently beat this season...
  9. Ramirez has some pretty nice numbers with the Cubs in 2014 and 2015. In that stretch, he has a 1.87 ERA with a 2.75 FIP along with 10.6 K/9 compared to 3.6 BB/9. He's still pretty young and he could definitely become a key fixture in the bullpen if he can look more like his 14-15 self. I'd say this is a good move. I'm not sure who will be going down in his place... I think it's too early to ship Chargois back to AAA, so maybe they send Pressly down for a little bit. Other options would be Rogers and Boshers, but they've pitched very well so far.
  10. Yep. His season might be over.
  11. Suzuki!! Wow!!! And with runners on base!
  12. I really thought Santana and Duffey were going to be the rotation's best options, but they've both looked bad over their last 5 starts. Right now the Twins have no choice but to trot out those two and Gibson and hope they can rebound. I would kick Nolasco out of the rotation and give Wheeler a chance though it may be a little early for him. Berrios probably isn't ready to come back... Meyer's hurt... so Tommy Milone? I didn't think this rotation would get this bad and we'd have so few options. There isn't much that can be done at this point.
  13. Is Chargois the first bullpen prospect to come up since... since... uh... I can't remember the last time a legit prospect came up as a bullpen option. Can someone help me remember?
  14. Once again, the Twins fail to get a hit with the bases loaded. As expected.
  15. Don't forget that Mastroianni is nearing a return off the DL, not to mention that Santana will be back sooner than later. It wouldn't make any sense to add Schafer to the roster and Rosario is not ready to come back yet.
  16. Molitor said after the game that Kintzler and Abad will be closing games now. Finally, he sees the light!!
  17. Has Jepsen been unthroned for good? Has Molitor finally given up on him as the closer? Or is he just getting a day off?
  18. At least Molitor's trying to use his bullpen effectively. I'll give him a tiny bit of credit for that.
  19. The Twins trail in yet another game... I think it's only been 2 games where they haven't trailed at any point.
  20. I heard (from the announcers) he was having some back pain, so that's probably why.
  21. I'm glad the Twins took my advice and called Boshers up. He's looking good so far.
  22. Is Nunez juicing? All the more reason to trade him!
  23. Nunez is going to challenge Park and Sano for the HR lead pretty soon.
  24. I think it's time for Jepsen to go to the DL.
