    The Twins should take the best player on the board, and remove all Boras clients. There should be a boycot on his clients.
  2. Danchat
    Commence the Correia meltdown!
  3. Danchat
    What about the 2.23 ERA Kevin Correia? I'd rather take him over the super-inconsistent Liriano, who could either be a ace one a month or a meltdown once a week. It's also a burden on the bullpen for the games Liriano had to come out after 2 or 3 innings. At least with Correia, he's consistent. Even if he regresses back to his former ERA, he can get around 6 innings a start.

    I'll say DFA Wood, open up a 40 man spot (add a CF anyone?), and see if he gets past waivers. If he does, he's the first man up once a bullpen guy lands on the DL. I would send Pressly back, but it seems the Twins are against that.
  5. Danchat
    I would say it's too early to get excited. We have to be patient with him. He looks to me like the next Anthony Swarzak/Brain Duensing (aka guy who can't start but can relieve fine).

    Baltimore loves scrapping mediocre Twins. Almost like how in football the Seahawks are taking all of the good Vikings!

    According to Pat Reusse, Arcia is going back to AAA. Wilkin is already back.
  8. Danchat
    Argh! Arcia nearly hit one home with a runner at 2nd and 3rd. It was caught tho. I see a much brighter future...or at least a much better start for Arcia than Hicks.
  9. Danchat
    Wait... who said Parmelee was taking a seat?! He has the third highest AVG next to Mauer and Escobar! I also hope Ramirez gets his spot back, y'know, in case Arcia suddenly becomes a sensation and starts. I'd plop Arcia in left, Willingham DH, and Doumit... catcher and pinch hitter.
  10. Danchat
    Wait a second.... Doumit would have to be batting .400 if their AVGs were combined.
  11. Danchat
    And not to mention Correia, who is bound to implode throwing an imperceptible 1.9 K/9. I'd much rather see a AAAA get a shot in the majors than a AAA pitcher pitch in the bigs when he's not ready. Very classy, Twins.

    I'm really surprised Pedro Hernandez wasn't sent down, especially since he's had an injury? (Just wait, in 5 days, he'll be on the 15 day DL). I think this says something about Hendriks. I've lost faith in him, and he might just be a AAAA pitcher.
  13. Danchat
    Lew Ford and Matthew LeCroy. Last year, it was Parmelee for me. I'm now on the Wilkin Ramirez bandwagon, and I'm a fan of Casey Fien and Jared Burton.
  14. Danchat
    Oh... never knew that. However, will Pedro Hernandez get some innings in the bullpen? (if it's him?) I was pretty sure he worked out as a starter, so maybe he can be a long reliever.
  15. Danchat
    Cole De Vries was put on the IR today. He was slated to pitch tomorrow, but now nobody knows for sure who will. I would like to see P. J. Walters, but he's not on the 40 man roster. Pedro Hernandez looks like the top option. What do you think?Notebook: Cole De Vries scratched, headed to DL with sore forearm - Minnesota Twins news | 1500 ESPN Twin Cities ?

    It isn't working because Hicks can't hit. If there was someone who could get on before Mauer, that would help a lot, no?
  17. Danchat
    Eduardo Escobar! He sure got lucky.
  18. Danchat
    It's Casey Fien. And he looks good pitching right now. Few people know him, but I think he's one of our best bullpen options.
  19. Danchat
    1st inning turns out exactly as I imagined. 2-0 Tigers. We are gonna be bad. Really bad. Worley is our BEST pitcher.
  20. Danchat
    I like Wilkin Ramirez. Let's give him a chance, and if/when he struggles, we dump him for someone else who's in the garbage heap.
  21. Danchat
    These guys are a dime by the dozen. Don't lose any sleep over it. We can claim one of these guys next time somebody gets DFA'd.
  22. Danchat
    I could see the Twins carrying 13 pitchers like they did last season. However, I would like to see the Twins have Mastroianni as the backup OF and Wilkin Ramirez as a backup bat. He has won me over in spring training. The Twins will carry Butera. I think he sucks but he'll be on the team. I want Carrol as the utility and Escobar can develop at AAA and come when the injury flurries start. So... 12th pitcher, C Butera, OF Ramirez
  23. Danchat
    Probably both.
  24. Danchat
    I'd take Wilkin Ramirez as the 4th OF and Chris Colabello as my sleepers. The Twins don't keep backup infielders! (see last year) Butera is going to be on the bench. Maybe someone like Florimon as the utility guy.
  25. Danchat
    Call me pessimistic, but with most teams getting better this offseason, the Twins have gone backwards. I'm glad we're building for 2015. But I think we will bomb big again a 3rd year in a row. 58 wins. Yes, that's 58-104. We are getting too optimistic, exactly like we did last year.
