    6-4-3 by Sano...weakly hit...disapointing.
  2. TNTwinsFan
    2B by Polanco and its 1-0 Lookouts!
  3. TNTwinsFan
    Lead off 2B by Buxton!
  4. TNTwinsFan
    Berrios 1IP, 0 Hits, 2Ks, 0 BB, 0 Runs
  5. TNTwinsFan
    E-6 to start the game on Polanco. Berrios K's the next guy. 3rd Batter pop out in foul territory to Sano. Berrios sitting 91-94 with FB.
  6. TNTwinsFan
    Linups to follow.

    Just bought tickets to see Berrios and the Bunch take on Jackson tonight! If I can take my focus off the game long enough, I will try to post an in-game thread tonight to keep folks updated.

    Does any one know whether a team can drug test FAs before signing? Maybe there could be a NDA where the results are only known by the team and the FA? If this type of policybis already in place and was not employed by the Twins, well, that's their own fault. But, it seems like all the burden of testing is on some other regulatory body or MLB. Can anyone clear this up for me?

    With the Twins by June 2015! Closing by June 2016!

    Well, apparently his first order of player business is to have Danny Santana play SS. If true, CF is a hole to fill.

    Player payroll wont be an issue for a while. Get this done! I think $7mil/5yrs, a Top 5 Minor League system, and two more World Series Titles than the Cubs would make him a better fit than the "good guys from Chicargo (Tennessee slang for "Chicago").

    Is it bad that I don't even consider Mauer in my thought process when evaluating even the near future of this team? Mauer seems to be an afterthought, someone who is almost irritating specifically BECAUSE he's on the periphery. Positive regression aside...I just feel like saying, "Damnit! Lead, follow, or get out of the way!"

    I've been advocating this on other threads the last day or so and mike wants wins touched on it. One of the things the Twins ought to do is bring up the young RP flamethrowers who have demonstrated success for 2015. Burdi, Reed, Z. Jones for starters. No need to wait until mid-season. Do it right out of Spring Training. Also, as has been noted on several threads by multiple bloggers and posters here, the Twins had quality offensive production last season. Even accounting for regression, with marginal improvements from players like Arcia, maybe Plouffe, it may be safe to say the offense will hold its own. To beat a dead horse, defense is an area to be improved upon for next season. Maybe they go out and sign a Rasmus-type, maybe they dont and run with who they've got. Schafer seemed adequate in LF defensively. Maybe he regresses offensively and we end up having to depend on a guy like Hicks who is just as poor offensively. The outfield situation probably changes defensively with the addition of Buxton. Bottom line: take Burdi, Reed, Z. Jones north at the end of Spring Training; addition by subtraction of Willingham in LF defensively. Let the kids play now!

    This may be the wrong thread....I juat cant help to think though that it is really time to stop messing around with marginal ball players at the MLB level. Cut the cord with some of these marginal pitchers in the bull pen too. The Twins have about 5-7 guys that would seem to have a significant impact next year stashed in the minors. Guys like Burdi, Z. Jones, Reed, Melotakis, etc. They've been lights out. Give these kids a shot and see what happens.
  16. TNTwinsFan
    Rasmus...do it! Overpay if you need to. And Shields. Overpay there too.
  17. TNTwinsFan
    Shields and a quality LF should do the trick. Shields on a 4-5 yr deal and that LF on a 2-3 yr deal. I dunno who that LF is...maybe Cruz? Poor defense there. Who else is out there?
  18. TNTwinsFan
    Trade Perk for an OF.
  19. TNTwinsFan
    I'm saying closer by 2017 or 2018. They should all be in the pen by the end of 2015 IMO.
  20. TNTwinsFan
    Burdi in 2017 or 2018. Although I did post on a thread some time ago that I thought Burdi should get a cup of coffee THIS September....Coulda said the same for Reed and Z. Jones in retrospect.
  21. TNTwinsFan
    Reed = Twins Closer 2016
  22. TNTwinsFan
    I couldn't be happier! Unless the Twins pick up the Nashville AAA Affiliate too. I live in Nashville, and often times work in Chattanooga. So, I'm stoked! I guess this means I'll need to get better about posting accounts of the players on here!

    Sparkling grape juice?
  24. TNTwinsFan
    Did he just pull that? Was he supposed to do that?
  25. TNTwinsFan
    I hope Jordan becomes the next Danny Santana-like surprise...but, with about 1000 PA, I doubt he will be.
