    If the Twins re-sign both Hunter and Pelfrey, I'm going to lose it. It's not going to be pretty. I think Pelfrey will find a nice home somewhere as a back-end starter in the NL. If Jason Marquis can hang around as a starter in the NL (after he was cut, that is), Pelfrey can too.

    The only reason why I didn't like the Jepsen trade was because Jepsen didn't look like an 8th inning pitcher. I've been genuinely surprised by Jepsen's spectacular performance so far, and now I'm a big fan of the trade. I suspected he would decline but he's done anything but. I'm fine with giving up Tapia and Hu for a Jepsen at his best. Now, if they could have gotten Cotts a month or earlier...

    Phil Hughes just got scratched due to an illness. Tommy Milone will start today instead of Hughes. He'll go up against Kluber. This should be interesting...

    Just came out today that Tiger's manager Brad Ausmus is keeping his job for 2016. That's too bad... I wanted to see Gardy coach them.

    If it was during the first half of the season? Yes. If it was during the second half of the season? No. I just find it insane that if the Twins can slip into the playoffs, we're going to [probably] have to have Gibson and Pelfrey in the rotation. I just can't see our rotation standing up to any other team's.

    Dang it, I got caught voting for myself. Now I will never ever be eligible for the TDGTHOF!
  7. Danchat
    Yeah, I think Milone is definitely not a lock. He's currently on the shelf and I don't think he'll be ready for the playoffs. This probably means Pelfrey has to start. Yikes.

    Well, the Twins stole one tonight. We're just one game behind the Astros with 11 games left. We can do this!
  9. Danchat
    Wow... Twins are up 4-0 and the Astros lost again. Things are looking up. However, we shouldn't forget the Angels are currently tied with us... (if we win here, we'll be .5 ahead of LAA)
  10. Danchat
    Interesting... I think I'll take on more game threads next season, as I definitely enjoyed writing the two I did. Anyways, the Twins need to take down Kluber today! Just pretend he's Sale and we're good!
  11. Danchat
    We're back at 2 games behind Houston. It isn't quite over yet, folks. All we have to do is tie up with Houston and we have a chance.

    The Twins just called up Max Kepler, fresh off a Southern League title. I'm excited to see this kid play. Hopefully he can be the one pinch hitting instead of Santana in late games... Source: Mike Berardino and Derek Wetmore

    Apparently, Hughes is re-entering the rotation to take over for Milone. I'm not sure Hughes has the velocity to do it, frankly. But Milone has been terrible, so I get it. Pelfrey is still somehow in this rotation, too.

    I'm glad to see Dozier getting a day off. He needs it.
  15. Danchat
    This isn't surprising, but I don't see room on the team for him. He absolutely can't be a starter. He's not good enough defensively to be the 4th outfielder. He could be a pinch hitter, but that's taking a spot away from Arcia, Vargas, or even Pinto. If they can get him to be a bench coach or something like that, I think that'd be great.

    Dozier

    Fun fact: Dozier leads the league in "outs made". Source: Baseball Reference

    And a Danny Santana pinch hit as a cherry on top....
  18. Danchat
    The Twins definitely need to get Kepler and Polanco with the team ASAP (once their playoffs are over) so we can get some better pinch hitters.
  19. Danchat
    Sano learned from his AB from yesterday. Good to see! Now, Plouffe, do NOT hit into another double play!
  20. Danchat
    Alright, Sano, time for a HR!
  21. Danchat
    Did gamecast have that right? Did Santana just pinch hit for Buxton? Buxton was hitting so well tonight, too! Why have Santana flail at the plate?
  22. Danchat
    I'm glad I won't have to tune into the Twins game tonight, thanks to the score so far. All my focus will be on the Vikes in a little bit. Don't blow this lead, Twins! I can't pay attention to two games at once!
  23. Danchat
    Yes, I would definitely look into a trade. It would be very prudent of the Twins to give Washington a call.
  24. Danchat
    I thought JR Graham was still on the DL. Apparently, he isn't.
  25. Danchat
    At least the Rangers are losing 5-1...
