  1. Love to jump the gun - Twins are tied with Tampa Bay for the 2nd spot. Looking for a Stephan Pastis pun to complete the thread.
  2. I don't know if Berrios is the best, but he is certainly the most impressive - the guy just keeps killing it level after level, years under league average every step of the way. I'd put him right after Buxton on the untouchable list.
  3. Wow stuff from Tonkin. Nasty slider outside corner then bust em inside with 96 mph heat, loved that sequence as much as Smalley
  4. Hard to say Walker hasn't adjusted - he has moved up a level every season, which might give the appearance that he hasn't adjusted. Each year he faces better pitching, and the BB/K ratio stays the same, but so does the production. At some point, when the pitching he faces reaches a plateau, we might see tanginble improvement in the numbers. Or not. If he were repeating levels, then I'd be concerned.
  5. The thing about Walker is people look at his faults more than his assets. That power is pretty special.
  6. I am very excited to see this young man continuing the tradition of Puckett and Hunter. Elite CFs are about my favorite kind of player.
  7. Just wondering. Molitor has some of Gardy's tendencies, pretty conservative on base, which surprises me, overusing the bullpen, not a lot of situational adjustments or small ball. (Correct me if I'm wrong - this is from what I've seen). This season may end up going down the ****ter eventually, but right now i like the energy and enthusiasm I'm seeing, although I'm not sure how much credit the manager/coaching changes deserve. Opinions?
  8. To answer the OP's question, no. Nolasco is the luckiest man on the face of the Earth. ERA of 9.00, 2-1 record, millionaire salary.
  9. Dat sinker. Pitch to contact can be effective if the contact is weak.
  10. We're seeing bits of the future here. Gibson as stud, Rosario and Vargas with bombs. It's only gonna get better as the prospects rise. Loved Mr. Rosario's intro to Twins ball tonite
  11. Eddie Sr.. is a great guy. High point for Twins coverage. What a start!
  12. I like 6' - seems like the ideal size for a premium SS on both sides of the ball.
  13. Wow, glad to see Buck putting some fuel into the hype machine ... we need it!
  14. How long is the future for a 25 year old? It's now or never land for Hicks now. He has 500+ abs in the majors.
  15. Well, no pain, no gain. That's a great sequence there
  16. I missed the point where Pelfrey came out. Was he hurt, or just on a short leash today?
  17. Late arrival - Plouffe is pretty good at the hot corner - we did it, we drafted a 3rd baseman(well, a SS) in the 1st round and he panned out. What to do, what to do....
  18. Nolaso = disaster #1 Santana = disaster # 2 Nishi = disatser #3 God do Pelfrey and Correia look good!!!!
  19. C'mon medical staff!
  20. Both Sano and Buxton just need to stay healthy and play - it'll come back.
  21. How is his fielding?
  22. Good to see a new 'stache in Cedar Rapids. Kanzler rocked it last season.
  23. Speaking of Thorpe, did he go under the knife, or is he just being rested?
  24. to those who wait. I regret Santana's bust: that is just a gut punch. But all I heard here over spring training was May, Meyers, May, Meyers Here ya go
  25. Certainly the front runner for "least bang for the buck."
