    Esco needs to be in one of the top 3 spots in the lineup. Outside of Mauer, he's the only one actually hitting the baseball.
  2. Danchat
    from Dan Cook's Twitter I'm excited to see Kepler again. Hopefully he can hit his way onto the starting lineup. Maybe he'll play like 2015 Rosario... that's what I'm hoping for.
  3. Danchat
    Well, Milone's doing his job very well so far. Can't say the same for the offense.
  4. Danchat
    I'm going to guess how many times the Twins will strike out today... let's see... I'll go with 13.
  5. Danchat
    Buxton has 9 Ks in 3 games. The two doubles were nice, but not enough compared to all of those whiffs. I also think it's more about Buxton getting a day off rather than Santana deserving it.
  6. Danchat
    I agree with the first two, but I get why Buxton's on the bench. He's leading the team in strikeouts. He needs to take a break on the bench.

    Does Molitor have a thing for Danny Santana? He gave Santana waaay too much rope at SS last season, and now he's our #2 hitter? I don't get this. It's good to see Arcia in the lineup. It's been too long since he's last started for the Twins. Aha! We should have been directing our hate towards the real reason why the Twins have stunk so far! (starts a Anything > TC Bear thread)

    This is why I'm concerned for our bullpen. Last year, every single member of the opening day bullpen minus Aaron Thompson was placed on the 15 day DL at one point (info from Derek Wetmore of 1500ESPN). Guys are going to get hurt, but the question is, who's going to replace them? Guys like Burdi and Chargois probably aren't going to be ready. If something happens to Abad, at least they have O'Rourke. But what happens if it turns out somebody like Jepsen or Perkins is hurt for a month? The only feasible options on the 40 man roster I see are O'Rourke and Rodgers. JR Graham isn't ready yet. The way I see it, the Twins need to add some bullpen depth. They should think about signing a free agent. Perhaps Nolasco or Duffey could end up in the bullpen?
  9. Danchat
    Jepsen isn't looking so good...
  10. Danchat
    Yes, I am more concerned for Sano. However, if there's gonna be a collision in the outfield, then I'm gonna be more concerned for Buxton. (that's a joke, I'd be concerned for both, of course)
  11. Danchat
    It'll be interesting to see how much Danny Santana plays this season. Will Arcia get any time in LF or RF?
  12. Danchat
    I got 158. I don't know any 90s players, so that's a pretty good score for me. My biggest misses were Doumit, Delmon, and Worley. I also forgot Paul Molitor played for the Twins in the 90s. I thought he was before that... whoops.
  13. Danchat
    And the game ends fittingly with a strikeout.
  14. Danchat
    Naysayers: Escobar's slugging percent is due for regression Escobar: Just watch me
  15. Danchat
    I'm getting the feeling that the Twins offense will have many slumps and plenty of ups and downs. There will be games where it'll be like a fireworks show and some where it'll be all crickets.
  16. Danchat
    If this game has to go into extra innings... do we see Nolasco or Milone at some point?
  17. Danchat
    Abad looked good. Hopefully he can be this year's successful veteran reclamation project. And hopefully have a little higher K/9 than Boyer's 4.6.
  18. Danchat
    It'll be interesting to see how Fien fares in the bullpen. I used to like the guy, but his leash has got to be getting shorter. I want to see him succeed, but if he continues to pitch like this...
  19. Danchat
    At the time it seemed like a good decision. He wasn't going to re-sign with the Twins. And as an unexpected bonus, they got a starting SS out of him.
  20. Danchat
    This is about what I was expecting. Tonkin didn't deserve a spot on the roster, so I hope they keep his leash short. They shouldn't be afraid about losing him. If there's a decent bullpen arm getting optioned in the next few days, the Twins should consider swapping that guy with Tonkin. With some talented young starters waiting in AAA, Nolasco's leash should be short as well.
  21. Danchat
    Rosario has to be at the top of the bust list, at least for me. I don't think Suzuki can be a bust unless he plays really bad.
  22. Danchat
    According to MLB Trade Rumors, Quentin is probably going to retire.
  23. Danchat
    I think we may see Quentin with the Twins later this season... all it will take is one injury to an outfielder or Arcia and he'll probably be the guy. It only depends if that happens before June 1st.
  24. Danchat
    Yeah, not surprising. I expected Strong to be outrighted. Now Abad will be able to take his spot, unless he gets hurt. I'm pretty confident Abad will be added.
  25. Danchat
    He has options and he was a burden in the bullpen last year. He needs to prove himself in AAA if he wants to be back with the Twins later in 2016.
