    Perhaps if we had someone with CF experience, this throw wouldn't happened. Santana made a bad (and kinda dumb) throw, but I don't blame him too much, he shouldn't be playing CF. And now it's 2-0 instead of 1-0 because of this.
  2. Danchat
    Wow. Who woulda thunk. 6 runs in the top of the 9th. Now that is what I want to see!
  3. Danchat
    Eh, I don't know if Jay is worth Rosario. I don't think I'd do that trade.
  4. Danchat
    Wow, it's nice to see Santana leading off. Too bad he's stuck in CF... Also, why is Nunez DHing? I guess he's not great in the field, but still... Arcia, Willingham, and Plouffe.. oh wait, how about Pinto? Or Parmelee? And on a somewhat related note, we shouldn't let Kubel take up a roster spot by sitting on the bench and not being able to pinch-run or be a defensive sub. This is frustrating.

    When's the last time we hit a grand slam? We get about one a year, while other teams hit something around four a year. Sorry I don't have any stats, but I think I'm right.
  6. Danchat
    It should be interesting now that Hicks is giving up left hand hitting. I think he'll be able to get the ball into the outfield more often. Also, anyone know how Fuld is doing? I thought he'd be back by now. I think he's a fine backup and we don't need to acquire another CF, or at least not trade for one.

    While most the Twins are failing at the plate, Eduardo Escobar somehow is on fire. Does he have enough PAs to be on the batting average leaderboard?

    Fien is a great find by this organization. But we should avoid a long-term deal, just in case. BTW, the name of the article should be "Fantastic Mr. Fien".
  9. Danchat
    Dang. 4-0 already.

    You need to:

    Methinks Tonkin is going down for Fuld or Arica tonight.
  12. Danchat
    This is unbelievable. Ortiz is on fire (or steroids). He's like the only kid in your gym class who plays baseball and when you play softball, he hits a home run every time he bats. But I guess this is just karma for the Twins. Get rid of a really talented player, he bites you back. Hard.
  13. Danchat
    FYI, Fuld is coming back too. Ideally, we'd get one of those pesky relievers out of the bullpen. But I really don't know if we can send any of them down. At this point, it'd be Tonkin, but that probably won't happen. Here's what should happen... Activate Fuld, send down Hicks/Tonkin. (I'd pick Tonkin cause we cause use a backup OF) Activate Arcia, option him to AAA If not 60 day DL, then activate Willingham, send down Santana.
  14. Danchat
    I just heard a Twins advertisement promoting Colabello. That makes me think he'll really have to screw up to get sent down. A bench bat and rotating DH with Kubel is what he should be doing, at least when everyone's healthy.
  15. Danchat
    It won't be too long until his batting average dips under .220, but he's really exciting. His speed is fantastic and I hope he doesn't get injured (an injury that would sap his speed, that is. Like Mastoianni). Might as well keep starting him while he's hot.
  16. Danchat
    Willingham would have had that one.
  17. Danchat
    I think we finally have a bench and an actual outfield full of outfielders. Nice. Let's hope we can get these bats going against Verlander.
  18. Danchat
    I wonder if Hicks or Parmelee will be in the lineup. We should also have our pitchers do some batting practice, y'know, just in case...
  19. Danchat
    I heard that he was taking grounders at short. Oh, and he's also an outfielder, too. He played it in high school. Please tell me you knew I was kidding.
  20. Danchat
    Uh, Clowney is a guaranteed top 2 pick at worst. Houston is basically taking him, and if not, somebody is trading up to get him. Outside of that, the only complaints I would have is WRs Benjamin and Matthews being in the first round. Bortles probably won't fall that far, but if he does, I would expect the Vikings to try and nab him. It'd be a shame if the Jags actually got a good QB.
  21. Danchat
    This is fun to watch how bad this roster management is. I'm thinking after this is over, somebody should lose their job. Or at least, Antony should never become a GM. They also better not DFA someone with potential. Just please DFA Raley, Wilson, or maybe Fryer. (actually I'd bet there's a 99% chance it won't be Fryer. They can't touch him, he's a catcher!)
  22. Danchat
    Ideally, Fuld is a leadoff batter. However, he doesn't have the OBP or BA to be any good there. Escobar is a much better option at leadoff if he can continue to hit. But Dozier is the safe pick for right now.
  23. Danchat
    I was under impression that the corresponding news was Hicks going on the 7-day DL, but perhaps I am wrong. These roster moves are fun to watch. You never know what's going to happen next. Let's get a 10-man bullpen!!!
  24. Danchat
    Brian Dozier for gold glove, anyone?
  25. Danchat
    Just got back from the game. Thank goodness they installed those heaters that emit heat because I might have become frozen. I keep ending up going to Pelfrey's starts and they've all been bad. Who's idea was it to give him a 2 year extension? Ugh. I have more reasons not to go to any more Twins games.
