  1. After only 16 innings in two seasons, easing him sounds like a good plan.
  2. Not a fan of the pitch clock, but also not a fan of watching someone like Alexander Colome get the ball back from the catcher, take off his hat, wipe his forehead, replace his cap, massage the baseball all while checking the sky in case Skylab is falling, finally looking to the catcher, deep inhale, exhale, shake off the catcher, wipe his cheek with his shoulder, nod the catcher, exhale again, step to the rubber and finally begin his windup....
  3. You learn something new everyday. Thank you!
  4. If it makes you feel better Marwin Gonzales was a 2017 Astro too, so we can already forget that. There's still Bregman to hate.
  5. Well written article, Sherry. I hope Sanchez can live up to your standard!
  6. If I wake up tomorrow and read that they traded Correa and Buxton for Ken Reitz, Jim Fregosi, and Elliot Maddox I'm gonna be super pissed...

  7. I see quite a few touting Miranda as a solid backup. A) triple A success doesn't mean he can handle major league pitching. That needs to be proven B ) they are not going to keep him here to sit on the bench. He either starts or they move him Just the opinion of an old guy
  8. They'll get production one way or another. I miss Cruz like crazy but I don't miss wasting a roster spot for a guy that can't play defense. We may already have guys playing defense that can't play defense...
  9. Thanks Seth, thanks Otto for the roster move. Can't hurt to try him. May soon be another casualty of they trade for a starter.
  10. The #3 hitter we've needed since Boomstick was trade...
  11. This is a "hey I believed in him when I drafted him, I feel an attachment" signing. He'll go to AAA and maybe something clicks. Or not. Either way it doesn't cost much.
  12. Did Falvine really just play the Yankees like that? Planned? Or just odd luck...
  13. The best part about getting old is waking up every two hours because you have to check to see that --  they signed Corea!!!

      Ok I kept getting up because I had to pee! It's an old man thing!

  14. Big Mike to Detroit. Twins should bunt every at bat against him. He won't make it past the second inning...

  15. How did Lewis do? Answer below please

  16. Question...I keep seeing people say Lewis can't handle short. What's his limitation? The speed should give him range. Does he lack reflexes? Glove? Arm? If the arm isn't an issue is 3rd base an option? Some details, please
  17. I was hoping Gordon would have a good day. Woe unto me...

    1. Brock Beauchamp

      Brock Beauchamp

      Well, he certainly had a day.

  18. I don't have much confidence in him panning out. The loss of velocity is definately a huge concern. But lefties seem to get longer leashes when it comes to development.
  19. No ads??? Paid... I found this site by accident a few years ago (2018). I thought it was a professional site. No idea that it was run by guys that are just regular twins fans. Keep up the great work gentleman. And ladies.
  20. I'd say those are things to watch. I'd want to see Alcala's confidence level. You can see it in his face when he pitches. He's much better when he has it. Keeping an eye on Buxton... Keep him in a damn bubble... I almost forgot Kiriloff's 0-14. I once went 0-14, and I turned out just fi.... Never mind.
  21. As Tom Petty said "the waiting is the hardest part." These last two days have killed me. Do something already!!
  22. Now that I've had a little time to process, the end result of two trades We downgraded at catcher We downgraded at 3rd We still have no SS.... Yeah there better be more moves coming.
  23. Sabato is a surprise, to me at least. Minaya was one of their more reliable relief guys in the second half last year. He's got to have a legitimate shot at making the team. And of course we all want to see how Martin stands with the big guys.
