    And we're not even going to use May. My goodness, I feel like Gardy is the manager here....
  2. Danchat
    I'm not even mad. That wasn't surprising at all. It's like watching a bad movie that's way too predictable.
  3. Danchat
    JR vs A-Rod with the bases loaded and one out. Gulp...
  4. Danchat
    Maybe a demotion would help. But who's going to close? I know most people here would say May, but I'm not sure if Molly would trust him like that - May's been in maybe 3 high leverage situations as a reliever! So then... Jepsen as closer?

    Shop him? C'mon, you can't trade a guy when his trade value is the lowest! I have no idea what the Twins should do in this scenario, though... maybe Perk's arm is tired, like Boyer's and Hughes'? Didn't he get fatigued near the end last season, too? Maybe he's just gotta take some longer breaks - he can't pitch three days in a row.

    We all know Nunez isn't very good defensively. Or at least, most of us know. Dick and Bert have been talking about Nunez's "improved" defense at SS... and I haven't see it. Sure, he's got a great arm, but he's a poor fielder. He's a bench bat at best.
  7. Danchat
    That's our bullpen for ya.

    SANOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
  9. Danchat
    0-2 count HR... how many times has that happened this season?

    Right field, where former free agent Alex Rios is playing. They tried to get Hunter in that spot but had to settle for Rios.

    How I see the 2016 Rotation Santana - locked Hughes - locked Gibson - locked May - nearly a lock Candidates for the final spot: Milone - not bad for a #5 pitcher Nolasco - doesn't really deserve it, though he looked OK in his few starts this season. Might be let go in a salary dump trade Berrios - the guy I want in the rotation. Just like any rookie starter, the first few goes might be tough but Berrios has some serious potential Duffey - not an awful #5, but I'd rather keep him at AAA for depth purposes. The way I see it, either Milone or Nolasco should be moved. I'd opt for Nolasco.

    Is it just me or is Shane Robinson in a platoon with Torii Hunter in RF? It seems like this is his 4th start this week. I know Torii needs his rest, but we should have somebody better than Robinson to replace him...
  13. Danchat
    The Twins will keep Tyler Duffey in the rotation after a successful outing against the Indians today. May will return to the bullpen to help make up for Boyer's absence. The Twins also optioned Tonkin back to AAA - poor guy, I wish he could get a longer opportunity to make the roster. We'll see him in September at the latest, though. And if you were wondering, Milone is being activated in Tonkin's spot so he can start on Sunday.

    Finally, our bullpen is moving in the right direction. Next up, Duensing and Fien get mysterious injuries and get shelved.
  15. Danchat
    I think the opposite is likely and Hunter asks for another one year deal.
  16. Danchat
    Even though I don't agree with you about May being a reliever, you bring up a good point. Once again, Twins management has bungled the situation.
  17. Danchat
    Oh boy. Fien gives up the go-ahead run. This is the situation where you get that reliever of whom you traded for to get the 8th. But wait, Jepsen isn't that good and the Twins don't trust him yet. This is why I don't like the Jepsen trade.
  18. Danchat
    Oh yeah, the bats are heating up. This is the kind of baseball I like to watch.
  19. Danchat
    In all honesty, the only reason why Shane Robinson is out there is because Hunter needs a break after a night game. The problem is, the only guy to replace him is a 4th outfielder who can't hit! They need to find somebody who can be a 4th OF and actually hit for something. Arcia could do the job. I'd even consider claiming Rockies OF Drew Stubbs, who just got DFA'd. However, knowing TR and the Twins... they aren't going to do anything about it.
  20. Danchat
    Alright, at least it isn't Michael Bowden starting. For now, that is... Also, Hughes is going on the DL. So Duffey is taking Hughes' spot in the rotation and not Milone's. Side-Note: When TR signed Bowden, I think he mentioned something about possibility getting him to the major league team. I just know TR has a plan to get this mediocre veteran onto this team. EDIT: I somehow missed it, but May is returning to the rotation! Hallelujah!

    According to Gamecast, this game is going to the bottom of the 9th. http://i.imgur.com/H3rYu2D.png Also, Achter has pitched 5 and a third innings. Yup.
  22. Danchat
    My goodness. We should package Buxton with Arcia, Vargas, and D. Santana and get Matt Harvey or Clayton Kershaw. Throw in Duensing and that'd sweeten the deal. It's waaaay too early to trade Buxton. He needs to play in the majors for more than 11 games to properly evaluate his talent.
  23. Danchat
    I have Miguel Sano on the bench of my fantasy baseball team. But as I said yesterday, I can't wait to see Sano when he hits his prime. MLB, watch out.
  24. Danchat
    Where would we be without Sano? Man, he's just getting adjusted to the majors... I look forward to when he's in his prime.
  25. Danchat
    We just traded for him! Now you suggest trading him away? We gave up Hu and Tapia for this guy 10 days ago and now you're ready to ship him out? The Twins aren't going to part with their veterans, especially Hunter. He has a no-trade clause, he's stated that he's going to retire with the Twins, and TR will probably sign him on for next season because "veteran-ness".
