  1. Is 5+ seasons in the minors before being promoted to the majors considered to be promoting quickly for most clubs?
  2. IMO, he hasn't held the job long enough to get any blame. Honestly, I think it takes about three seasons to see what hitting and pitching coaches are worth.
  3. And MAYBE not even outside of Gibson...
  4. Exactly. We have to pay 6M no matter what if he's not traded and he's not worth that. Trading Morny and at least part of his salary for a prospect, regardless of whether or not the prospect is worth 6M this year, is a good idea because you never know what that prospect will be worth in future years...and even if he doesn't end up being worth near the 6M, that's okay cause that money is gone anyway if we don't trade Morny. Then he's gone for nothing and we still spent the 6M.
  5. I think we're talking about squirrels....one just ran across my keyboard.
  6. Worst starting pitching in the game...last in majors in defensive efficiency. Maybe he was just talking recently...doing the extremely SSS.
  7. Where did you get that info from?
  8. Morny has been my favorite Twin since he's been with us and even I think it's time for him to move on.
  9. Today he said the game was about pitching and defense and we've been doing that pretty good...
  10. It doesn't matter to me if you trust my analysis or not. Not every single post needs a dissertation. If you question the conclusion of someone's post, do the work yourself and counter it instead of making SA comments to them. But since every post needs a dissertation, start asking it from everyone, including 'positive' posts. And, um, starting doing it yourself as well.
  11. Going into today's game, Baseball Prospectus says we are dead last in the majors for defensive efficiency. We're also 26th in FIP for our pitching staff as a whole. We're 21s in runs scored. We're dead last in starter ERA, IP, Ks, BAA, OBP against, slg% against and quality starts. Sorry, I suppose I should have broken down every others teams opponent numbers on offense, defense and pitching compared to our opponents numbers, when they played, sunlight or nightime, full moon, etc... Can't make any conclusions on this.
  12. Thanks for the info :-)
  13. I guess I shouldn't be surprised someone asked for a thesis on my 'simple' statement...because it's a 'negative post'. Truth hurts I guess :-) Thanks for posting the info.
  14. Sometimes I wish I was an insider..was that all he said?
  15. Stark listed the Twins in the 'other losers' category. He said: 'Twins ("They would have gotten incredible value for Glen Perkins")'
  16. He has gotten extremely lucky...let's not pretend he hasn't.
  17. 'Pitching is the name of the game and catching the ball and we've been doin' that pretty good'--Tom Kelly about five minutes ago
  18. I wish I could say I was surprised.
  19. You think that's IMPOSSIBLE to defend..just wait :-)
  20. Doesn't matter if it's not how it actually works, the visual is hilarious anyway! :-)
  21. I figured after I wrote the post...this turned into quite the joking thread. Probably be the best thread of the year. Dodgers could probably afford to have double their payroll and not even sweat it...
  22. The Pig and a MTBNL :-)
  23. He's way too expensive....talk about a seriously over-priced player.
  24. Does Kershaw still have options? :-)
