    I think we have to keep Diamond out there on the mound until he improves or implodes. I don't care that we're losing games because of him. We have to keep trotting him out there and maybe eventually we'll discover what's wrong and why. But we must be patient.

    I'm all for trading these guys, but Morneau and Hammer have almost no value right now. Both are at career lows. Doumit, maybe we could get something. Parmelee needs to get consistent ABs though. That's a must, along with the other young ones.

    Can an admin delete this topic? I can't figure out how to. We don't need so many Gibson topic.

    Kyle Gibson to make long-awaited MLB debut later this week - Minnesota Twins news | 1500 ESPN Twin Cities ? Minnesota Sports News & Opinion (Twins, Vikings, Wolves, Wild, Gophers) | Sportswire: Minnesota TwinsThe link says it all. Now are you all happy, people who have kept complaining? Gibson is finally coming. Hopefully he just doesn't bomb it....
  5. Danchat
    After Parmelee just hit 2 HRs today... yeah, let's send him down. GIVE HIM MORE ABs!!!!
  6. Danchat
    My question is why the heck has he been on the bench since Arcia came up? Now suddenly Doumit gets RF all to himself! I'm fine with sending Parmelee down to work on his batting, but why let him rot on the bench like this?
  7. Danchat
    There is no reason to move Ryan Pressly right now. He is throwing some great baseball and we should keep him in his role. We have enough starters, plus he'd be horrible. It's like with Swarzak and Duensing. They can hold down spots as relievers but just really suck when they have to start.
  8. Danchat
    I think we're just lucky. I'm waiting for catastrophe to happen. Ah, the life of a pessimist.
  9. Danchat
    Hey I know it's really late but can I get Daniel Oritz?
  10. Danchat
    "280 bucks for Chris Parmelee anything?" That was an interesting article. Heck, I've already invested $$$ in a Parmelee jersey, I should just go buy his rookie card....
  11. Danchat
    I just don't understand why Doumit is playing RF. WHY? Both him and Parmelee are batting .225 and Parm is the long term option. Why sit him for 4 games in a row?! Doumit is much more clutch, which tells me Gardy cares about winning. (Which he should or his job is gone...) This team needs to focus on deciding on Dozier, Parm, Florimon, Plouffe, and etc. Not trotting out Doumit into RF.
  12. Danchat
    Pelfrey still sucks. His 6.40 ERA still isn't going down. Walters or Deduno will falter soon, don't worry. We can't possibly continue playing this well for this long.
  13. Danchat
    Even if his power is gone, he's batting .295 with lots of RBIs, so he's still an average hitter. We could use some power though....
  14. Danchat
    On overlooked prospects.... Rosario is #1 in my book, he's way better than Dozier and probably Danny Santana and Levi Michael. Oswaldo Arica is just 22 and already looks good at the plate in the majors level. I also think Pinto could be the next Wilson Ramos... or maybe replace Ryan Doumit.
  15. Danchat
    Not while he's batting .200. If he was batting .270, it'd be another story.
  16. Danchat
    Whatever happened to Wilkin Ramirez? Is he gonna be like Span and disappear for the whole season?
  17. Danchat
    Good luck, Tyler. I think he'll crack the roster eventually. I find it fine we shipped him off because we have a good enough bullpen. (for now.)
  18. Danchat
    Y'know, what I don't understand is why Pedro Florimon is batting #9 and he's a .255 hitter with good speed. That's a better option than Dozier (.220) and Escobar (.225) and even Carroll (.230) at this point! He should bat #1!
  19. Danchat
    I'm waiting for the annual big injury-i.e. Diamond gets TJ, Mauer has a mystifying injury, Morneau gets another concussion... then we'll lose some more. I still expect us to be bad. We just look good when we face the White Sox and Mariners.
  20. Danchat
    I'm not buying Dozier. He's not good enough yet. Rosario would be much much better. Florimon might just have it.
  21. Danchat
    It's probably Wilkin Ramirez coming back. Too bad Colabello didn't bat better. I think we'll be seeing him again in September.
  22. Danchat
    I prefer the DH. I like it as an opportunity for injured or older players to still bat but not field. When the based are loaded with two outs and the pitcher bats, that just takes something away from the game.
  23. Danchat
    Our power is a bit flukey, but we were slumping at the beginning of the season. I expect us to level off in the middle.
  24. Danchat
    Y'know, I'm usually a pessimist about the Twins, but I actually think Parmelee will emerge and bat better. I think he can still bat .260 with 20 homers and solid defense. Maybe it's because I'm biased (because I bought a Parmelee jersey over a Mauer one) but I think he will come through. Just give him more time, he can learn how to hit a fastball...
  25. Danchat
    I'd stick to Carroll leadoff when he plays and whoever is batting the highest .OBP/.AVG any other day. (Who has some speed.)
