    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".

    Should I suggest adding May to the rotation, or would that be beating the dead horse?

    Apathy

    Danchat replied to DaveW's topic in Minnesota Twins Talk

    Yeah, even if the Twins do the obvious and cut Boyer, Robinson, and call up Berrios & Buxton, I don't see how they're going to get things back together. I think the Twins can still play .500 baseball and finish the season right around the .500 mark. They just can't keep playing like they have in the last week.

    Wow. The meltdown continues. I'd complain about something here, but I can't even think of anything worthwhile to say.
  5. Danchat
    Achter looks awful. Sigh. I thought he'd give us a little hope... but hey, we get to watch Shane Robinson pitch!
  6. Danchat
    I'm assuming you're not talking about me, but I'm going to continue complaining about him. It's ridiculous.
  7. Danchat
    Wow, oh wow. Boyer gives up a grand slam! Can this end? Will this be Boyer's final appearance? Because he's a punchline at this point. How can you keep a guy like him on the roster?!
  8. Danchat
    KABOOM! There goes our bullpen. How can you give up 3 straight walks?? I was thinking about writing a piece about how O'Rourke has pitched so well. Don't think I'm going to write that now... Is it Boyer's turn to lower his ERA and give in some inherited runs?

    I was pretty sure the reason why Mauer stopped playing catcher was because of his concussion. I remember that being the narrative in early 2014 articles. It's a shame he can't catch anymore, but at least he isn't plagued with injuries. In early 2014, us Twins Daily posters thought that it was a good idea to move Mauer to 1B even though it'd be a downgrade at catcher. At least he could stay healthy and keep hitting, we thought. Unfortunately, none of us suspected Mauer's batting would sharply decline...

    Whoa, did Cleveland trade for Nelson Cruz and Neil Walker? Ha ha, I jest, though, they are in the same spots that Cruz and Walker play...
  11. Danchat
    Yes! Finally, Achter gets a chance. I hope he proves his doubters wrong. He's pitched well at AAA and he deserves to get a shot to stick. Question: Will Tommy Milone be eligible to pitch in the 5th spot after the bye? Or will we have to get someone (May) to pitch that game? Poor Duffey. They shouldn't have fed him to the lions. Yay, Herrmann switched with Fryer. Zzzzzz.... Actually, one random and last tidbit. I read today that Pinto's concussion side-affects have lifted and he's ready to resume baseball activities. Any chance we'll see his bat on the bench? (as a DH, I presume)
  12. Danchat
    So... after another bad outing, will Boyer finally get DFA'd? There's so many better options in AAA to replace him.
  13. Danchat
    Or, at the very least, all of the lefties?
  14. Danchat
    I forgot about the Twins game today, what did I miss so far? Holy snickerdoodles! 8-2?? Maybe I had subconsciously forgotten the Twins game for my own good!
  15. Danchat
    The A's claimed him. Since they have a bad record, they were able to claim him before the Twins got a chance. I would have recommended the Twins pick him up, but I doubt they would have. I think I remember Valencia not being liked by the players/coaches.
  16. Danchat
    Jepsen is wild, like TR said. He's also not that good.
  17. Danchat
    Fryer joining the team wasn't the worst thing ever. At least they were trying to improve from Herrmann's inept batting. But, predictably, it hasn't worked out. It wasn't the worst thing ever.
  18. Danchat
    And then Fryer and Robinson strand Escobar at 2nd with strikeouts. Why am I not surprised? Couldn't they have someone better at one of those spots in the lineup?
  19. Danchat
    Is this actually a thing? How many teams have done this before?
  20. Danchat
    Kaboom! This is like watching the home run derby!
  21. Danchat
    Grand slam... I'm not surprised. Ugh. When do the Vikings start?
  22. Danchat
    I'm waiting for Colabello's batting average to fall down to Earth like it did in 2014. But so far, the Blue Jays look pretty smart.
  23. Danchat
    Well, crap. I suppose Donaldson will be due for a HR tomorrow. Remind me why May isn't starting right now? He'd be doing more good in the rotation than in the bullpen.
  24. Danchat
    Oh, wow, Fryer and Robinson at the back of the lineup. We won't be getting any run support from there... I hope Duffey can hang in there. At least our batters are facing Hutchinson and not Price today, so maybe our offense can get Duffey some run support.
  25. Danchat
    Really? Move him back to catcher? :s-instagib: (have you seen the pinned topic in the Twins Talk section? The one called "Mauer will never catch again"?)
