  1. Terry Ryan said that "this is most likely not a long-term situation. Obviously that can change." (quoted from the Derek Wetmore article) So unless he breaks out like Danny Santana did, Arcia's gonna get his spot back.
  2. I think this is a good move. Arcia's injury isn't a major one and he'll probably be ready after 2-3 weeks. So why not give Eddie Rosario a cup of coffee and see how he does in the majors? He'll probably end up getting shipped back down to AAA when Arcia's ready, but that's fine. Rosario could turn out like Santana and Vargas and force his way onto the roster - and that'd be fine, too. I guess for Hicks, when he comes up, it's time he stays up. I see him replacing either Robinson or Schafer, and if one of them are DFA'd, they may not make it through waivers and we'd lose a little depth, meaning that Hicks would need to play well enough to stay on the major league roster.
  3. Ummm... why is Blaine Boyer our setup pitcher???|
  4. I think Gardy could take the spot. And I'm surprised they fired their coach so early into the season... we're not even one month in!
  5. This is some of the worst baseball I've ever seen. 11 hits and 3 errors in 3.1 innings!
  6. Just had a thought. Who'd rather have Sam Fuld right now rather than Tommy Milone?
  7. Just stopping by while I'm watching the Wild flail and the Vikings make some nice picks. Kyle Gibson... very nice. He's getting his season back on track.
  8. Apparently Jordan Schafer is healthy. At least we have 4 outfielders... if you can call them that.
  9. I like how you're staying patient with Santana at SS. Also, our bullpen looks like it's been completely revamped after about one month.
  10. Mike Berardino (if that's how you spell it) reported yesterday that Duensing was going to be activated, which means another player would need to go. Not sure who after Thielbar goes for Nolasco.
  11. One more note. Apparently Brian Duensing is on track to be activated for Saturday's game. This probably means Thielbar and Stauffer will be getting the axe.
  12. Just had a thought. What happens if Shane Robinson gets hurt? With Jordan Schafer hurt, Danny Santana would probably take over CF, which means Eduardo Escobar would have to cover SS, and Eduardo Nunez would have to come in and play LF. That's two infielders in the outfield. Yikes. Let's hope Robinson doesn't get hurt.
  13. Apparently, Tommy Milone is the one who will be going to the bullpen this time. Ricky Nolasco will start on Saturday and Milone will have to stretch out... perhaps as a long reliever? They will have to open up space, and now that Milone might be the new long reliever... I think this means Stauffer's time is up. Either that or Thielbar will get set down. I think this was a very good call. We need to keep Trevor May in the rotation and he's still there, so I like the move. Source: https://twitter.com/DWolfsonKSTP/status/593888900302577664
  14. I'll be watching the draft, not the Twins game. If we can win this game against the White Sox, then we can take 3rd place, so let's win Twins!
  15. My old timeline had the Twins making the playoffs in 2015, so as you can guess, that didn't work out. I don't make timelines anymore. I had faith in Terry Ryan. But after an offseason of adding Torii Hunter, Tim Stauffer, and Ervin Santana (they gave him too much $$$, not the suspension) plus not patching up the CF situation has slowly but surely crushed my faith in him.
  16. If Oliveros keeps pitching well, I think it's only a matter of time until he gets called up. This bullpen has enough weaknesses for him to fit in.
  17. Good call by the Twins. Your first guess was correct, Seth. So does this mean Fien to the DL or Stauffer DFA'd? (Honestly, I think it's a 95% chance of the former)
  18. I have only watched a couple games, so please provide some examples, preferably in video form.
  19. Kaboom! There goes Casey Fien's ERA!
  20. It's probably because 1) We're hiding him on the back of our rotation so we can keep him after this season 2) Graham is a rookie, and rookies should not be used in most situations. Instead, use old and washed up veterans!
  21. Y'know, Boyer should be feeling pretty good about himself. He's only second in line to be axed out of the bullpen now that Stauffer's first in line. (I'm not counting Thielbar, who I assume is going to be sent down after Duensing returns)
  22. The rhyming came out of nowhere, honestly. You shouldn't expect more because that's the extent of my rhyming skills.
  23. Wow... I take an hour and a half break and I come back to this... it's been quite a game, it's just a shame that Stauffer has to be so lame.
  24. Hughes gets a 1-2-3 start. Now let's take an early lead.
  25. I'm not sure what you mean. Are you saying nobody ever showed up to their games, or did they actually have a game with no fans? The source I read said that this Baltimore game is the first of all time not to have any fans attending.
