    I can't help but root for Smeltzer to bounce back. Duran is another guy I'd like to see stick.

    The Minaya move surprises me too. He was one of their best through August and September. Oh well, if they think they have better arms at least he's only a cab ride away. Is it just me or has it seemed like Sanchez has been getting more work at C than Jeffers? Miranda, I've said before he's going to play everyday somewhere, not ride the bench at Target Field. But I'm still anxious to see him get his chance.

    Please stay healthy... It's always possible Gordon improves from last year...

    I like Buxton - Palonco - Correa very much.
  6. The Mad King
    Hearing Correa talk over the last few days leaves a lot of hope that he could very well be back next season. Let's just not implode early the way they did last season

    Buxton batting leadoff... Think Ricky Henderson. Smeltzer - turned in a decent performance today. He'll definately pitch in the show sometime this year
  8. The Mad King
    Thanks for the update!
  9. The Mad King
    Nice debut from Correa. Rogers looks ready.
  10. The Mad King
    Definately different. But that's your lineup and you're welcome to it
  11. The Mad King
    Thankfully I'm not the only one who finds it funny when Martin and Lewis are mentioned together...
  12. The Mad King
    Great insight. I expect we'll see ups and downs from him this season. Hopefully more ups and that he learns from his downs.
  13. The Mad King
    I'd prefer they'd give the ball to someone every 5 days rather than planned bullpen games that deplete your bullpen. You'll get enough unplanned bullpen games as it is

    "Byron Buxton turned a regular-season triple into a double" can you elaborate please? ?
  15. The Mad King
    Maybe a few hiccups early on, but they'll mesh fine. Batting 2-3 in the order, turning double plays, it's gonna be exciting.
  16. The Mad King
    Safe to say someone in this article is going to be gone if they ever come up with a deal for pitching.
  17. The Mad King
    What's the Twins record on "opener" games the past few seasons? Off the top of my head it seems like they haven't had much success with it. I could be wrong. I'd like to see them give the ball to over of the prospects and give him a couple months to see what he can do.
  18. The Mad King
    Great to hear updates about guys like Povich and Cavaco. Thanks!
  19. The Mad King
    Old guy here who doesn't like any of the rule changes. Get off my lawn! Ok, no, the robot umps can stay...
  20. The Mad King
    Bring on the pitching...
  21. The Mad King
    ... As long as Buxton's healthy...
  22. The Mad King
    And really bad at dodgeball...

    Risk vs Reward

    The Mad King commented on ashbury's blog entry in Left Coast Bias

    I'm gonna guess the twins have some sort of insurance on players that would cover them in the event of comet strike. Or even blown out knee. For me, the risk is that we find out during the course of the year that neither Lewis or Martin is capable of becoming the heir apparent, Correa bolts, and they didn't address it at the trading deadline... I'll take your word on ask the WAR calculations!

    During one of the telecasts, I think in 2020, Smalley commented that he drops his hands when he's batting, and when he does, he tends to not make contact. A few days later there was a report here, about Sano saying he needs to keep his hands up. If you watch him, it seems to be true. He keeps his hands up and makes better contact. Nothing to do with his weight, but if being lighter helps his mobility on first, or his stamina in general, all is good.
  25. The Mad King
    Poor Ralph. He pukes on the mound after one pitch Sunday and gets dfa today. I'm still rooting for Smeltzer. Glad he pitched good today.
