    Pagan has averaged 2.5 BB per 9 innings over his career of 275 IP. This season it's 10.6 0ver a whopping 7 innings. He's going through a patch, but we are dealing with an aberration, and a very small sample size.

    I doubt the Twins are the only team gonna be affected by this.

    It has started to come to fruition, and hats off to management for making use of it. It also helps these guys that all hopes aren't placed on the shoulders of one individual. These rookies seem to enjoy the competition with each other from what I've read, and that is a very good dynamic as opposed to pressure.

    Interesting fact: Paddack, in spite of loads more experience, is about a year and a half younger than Wells.
  5. Monkeypaws
    A win today would push them over .600.

    After watching Detroit and Chicago's antics over the last homestand, I am confident the Twins have good defense.

    Did you miss his strike to home plate the other night?

    Joe Ryan doesn’t give up a lot of hits, and strikes out a lot of batters, 2 of my favorite old-school stats. Over parts of 3 minor league seasons, from his debut to last season: 226 IP, 143 H, 325K Those are crazy great numbers. MLB so far: 50IP, 26H, 55K. He also keeps the walks under control. WHIP the last 3 years: .841, .788 minors, .788 majors, and .this season’s absurd .696. Who knows, maybe he’s getting better!

    Nelson Cruz, the gift that keeps on giving.
  10. Monkeypaws
    Paddack. Like his line a lot.

    Watched the Mets down to their last strike yesterday rally from 0-2 to a 5-2 win on a festival of Cardinal mistakes. This is right there with it on the shelf of "Why Baseball Can Be Fun to Watch."

    Was it just a week ago the Twins were in last place? This 4 game winning streak came at a great time. Being in 1st in the Central is nice, but not being last and digging a big losing hole is really what I was hoping for. It's a long season, and you don't want all hope to be gone before summer. I'd say this week went a long way towards that, sweeping the predominant AL Central favorites while they played sloppy losing baseball.

    I know the season is young, and change is possible, but some of you owe Bundy an apology, at least for April. He's making it look easy.
  14. Monkeypaws
    Was gonna reply to this when I first read it, but after today, Joe Ryan might be a wee bit more than a placeholder
  15. Monkeypaws
    As an add to what the Twins already got, like it a lot.
  16. Monkeypaws
    Maybe the Sox are tired of swinging below their weight? Given their market, they should be much better than they have been historically.

    Interestingly Mike, I was about to propose gong back to 2 divisions in each league, with the division winners being the only playoff teams: League Championships, then World Series. I'd also get rid of interleague play. I'd like the regular season to mean something, and the playoffs to be a special privilege earned by only the few. To keep things interesting, each league could have 2 divisions, the Haves and the Have-nots: that way, only one big budget team from each league would make the playoffs. Membership in either division would be fluid, depending on the previous season's revenue.

    Swing and miss is Matt Lecroy over David Ortiz. Sano over Cron is more like a foul ball.
  19. Monkeypaws
    Let it be Gasser - great name for a pitcher.
  20. Monkeypaws
    Great headline ? Hopefully TC Bear can get some teeth with his new team.
  21. Monkeypaws
    I gave it a B. As a somewhat Padres fan, I remember watching Paddack pitch his rookie season, and wishing the Twins had such a talent. Well, it comes at a cost and risk, but when healthy, this guy can pitch. 3 years of control helps the grade too.
  22. Monkeypaws
    Watchable on your phone only?
  23. Monkeypaws
    Only 3 outfielders? Do some of this infielders double as outfielders?
  24. Monkeypaws
    I'd give them an A+. Haven't seen much lockout bitterness since the Correa signing.
  25. Monkeypaws
    There are a lot of ins and outs yet, you know. A line has yet to be drawn in the sand.
