  1. May, Clippard, Wisler and Romo are gone. Colome and Robles are here now. Robles really struggled last season. I would only give this bullpen a C.
  2. Half of those relievers are gone. May, Clippard, Romo and Wisler are gone. I think bullpen is going to be the problem this year.
  3. I think this bullpen is a little thin. They lost May, Wisler, Clippard and Romo and only got Colome and Robles(who had a bad 2020 season). They need to sign Clippard.
  4. Jeffers is starting. Garver is going to be the backup catcher for now.
  5. Rooker should be on the roster instead of Kirilloff early in the season. Both Alcala and Stashak could be the long reliever. This team could carry 14 pitchers if needed. I think the bullpen is a little weak (losing 3 or 4 guys from last season and getting only 2). They really need to sign Clippard.
  6. You just can't unload everybody! Buxton, Duffey and Kepler should stay for now.
  7. Goodbye: Romo, Avila, Gonzalez Come on back: Clippard, May, Cruz If Price is right: Hill, Odorizzi, Adrianza Please trade: Cave, Rosario, Sano Please promote as many capable young players as possible.
  8. I would like to see May and Clippard come back. Clippard is consistent and he does not cost much. I am certainly not comfortable with Dobnak / Smeltzer/ Thorpe on the major league roster.
  9. I disagree, I have a lot more confidence in May than Rogers. I think May can be special when it matters the most. He's the only reliever who did well in those two playoff games this year.
  10. How can you be sure that those prospects are ready? Kirilloff had only 4 ab in the ML. Rooker is not a good outfielder and he should be the first baseman of the future. Sano could either be traded or be the DH. Btw, I can understand not to sign Cruz because some of the prospects might be ready. However it's going to be impossible to replace his bat with any prospects they have. Pineda has been productive when he's healthy. If he didn't have the suspension, he could have made more starts. I don't think it makes sense not to extend him if he's healthy and productive again next season. Well since age is the concern here, I can see Twins only give him one year extension. Signing Berrios is not a sure thing. Buxton can never stay healthy. I don't think Twins have enough starting pitching in the minors. Well you can never have enough pitching. Prospects are prospects. They need to prove they belong in the ML. You should not put a minor league team on the major league roster.
  11. We have been swept by our opponents in post season for a long long time.
  12. Who is going to be on the roster if they let everyone go? Cruz needs to be brought back even if it's a two year deal. They need to extend Pineda, Pineda is at least consistent and he could eat up innings if needed. Pineda is a good #3 pitcher. Hill should be a good #4 pitcher. Odorizzi should be gone.
  13. All Twins hitters should watch tonight's game (Yankees vs Indians) and take notes. See how those Yankees hitters take care of their business. It feels like all their hitters are either Arraez or Cruz and they can get runs across at will.
  14. May is the one and only reliable bullpen arm in this very short post season. I would not let him walk. I think May can be special in post season.
  15. Well the guy just pitched two innings with 0 men on base in 2 straight days in the post season. I feel sorry for the players who played well. Cruz, May, Maeda and Berrios all deserve better. I also feel sorry for Pineda, Odorizzi, Wisler and Clippard, they didn't get to play because of dumb bullpen management. I again feel sorry for Hill, Alcala and Wade who deserve to be on the roster but left out. I don't feel sorry for Dobnak, Astudillo and Avila at all because they should not be any playoff roster.
  16. I would let Rooker start at 1B. Cruz has to be brought back even if it's a two-year deal. Sano needs to earn to start at 1B or he can ride the bench. Adrianza and Astudillo need to be let go or demoted. Garver needs to improve or he should be demoted. I have a lot more faith in Rich Hill than Dobnak. Rogers and Thielbar should be reevaluated. Wisler should be brought back instead of Thielbar. Rogers need to improve and I would like to see two more effective lefties in the bullpen.
  17. Well just like you, I started to pay attention to Twins as soon as I came to USA and then moved to Duluth for college around winter time in 1991. I then moved back NY a few years later and I have been a Twins fan ever since.
  18. I would give May, Stashak and Duffey another chance. I don't want to see Romo and Dobnak. 1B-somone who can hit, that would be Rooker. I might give Buxton another chance since he was hit by a pitch, it's at least uncontrollable this time. I also suggest to send Duffey and Rocco out for vacation as soon as the regular season ends.
  19. I would not mind seeing Hill to replace Dobnak in the rotation next year and I certainly hope May can be brought back. Twins need to add at least one maybe two good bullpen arms (lefty preferred).
  20. Maybe Duffey should go fishing with Rocco if Twins again make the post season next year. They always choke when it matters most.
  21. I wouldn't mind seeing Rocco gone.
  22. Again Rocco pulled the starter too early just like last game. Some of the players need to be let go or traded. Polanco, Rosario, Garver and Rogers need to be sent elsewhere. Say byebye to Romo. Sign Clippard, May and Wisler. Sign a good closer. Sign a good defensive catcher. Promote top 5 prospects aggressively. Let Rooker play regularly. Don't be afraid of letting Sano or any key player ride the bench if he struggles consistently.
  23. Alcala should not be left out of the roster. Dobnak is not needed with this pathetic offense.
  24. Not just poor, it's dumb. Take what you are given and force the opponents to make changes and then change accordingly.
  25. Baldelli has a tendency to make brainless moves. He just made too many of them in this important game. Let Baldelli manage the long season and then promote anyone else to manage the post season.
