    I feel like he’s better as a starter. His swing and miss stuff is good.
  2. Hashim
    It’s unlikely but I think we should bring all of them back, we can never have enough pitchers. Convert Maeda to reliever if you need to. Let Mahle rehab as much as needed. I would have a 6 man rotation and let them battle out for starting. The only guaranteed starters are Lopez, Ryan, Ober and Gray if he comes back. A 6 man rotation will take pressure off the bullpen too.
  3. Hashim
    Spot on. Gray and Maeda will be gone I believe. We definitely need bullpen help.
  4. Hashim
    Why use Belzovic in a tight game? Use your better bullpen arms, they’re rested.
  5. Hashim
    You make some good points. You don’t know what you have with Larnach and others if you don’t give them a chance. I would save the $10 million and use that money towards a bonafide ace or all-star hitter.
  6. Hashim
    Straw man, nobody said what you’re saying.

    Came to US and MN in 2001. Started Supporting all the local teams. MN teams were good and in contention in the early 2000s. The Twins went on a magical run beating the Moneyball Athletics with an even lower payroll, eventually losing to the WS winner. I fell in love with the Twins because of that magical run and because of players like Tori Hunter, Joe Nathan, Jacque Jones, Brad Radtke, etc.
  8. Hashim
    No way we trade Wallner unless we’re getting a better player back in return. I don’t even think Larnach will get traded because they still believe in him.
  9. Hashim
    Do you we need to bring him back though? We have so many good young outfielders in the minors raring to go. Martin, Williams (Kirilloff to OF), Larnach, Stevenson, Prato, Kiersey, and Camargo are all ready to go or almost ready. We can trade him and get some good value now.
  10. Hashim
    Scrapping bottom of the barrel as usual.
  11. Hashim
    Agreed. It was unfortunate what happened especially to Morneau. I feel like with tall catchers, injuries can be expected. Joe should have been moved or played less as catcher.
  12. Hashim
    Thank you for the piece. I liked Joe Mauer and Justin. They were a great duo. Some of our fans over idiolize/overrate him sometimes. There was no malice intended.
  13. Hashim
    Yeah they’ve been excellent all year. Don’t know why they keep starting old/no potential guys like Contreras when they could’ve called up Kiersey Jr. along time ago.
  14. Hashim
    I’m not a Joe Mauer hater but he’s highly overrated. He’s not overrated like Jeter (Goat of Overrated) but he’s highly regarded when he didn’t accomplish much individual or team wise. He won 1 MVP and didn’t do much in the playoffs that year. Justin Morneau, Johan Santana, and even Tori Hunter were much more important and Better players for the Twins. He’s highly regarded because he’s the hometown hero.
  15. Hashim
    Yeah Martin is definitely going to outfield and be a utility man.
  16. Hashim
    That's 4 lefties and 2 unproven/often injured players. There's just too much uncertainty going forward. Jeffers is only one I'm sure about this year. Lewis/Kirillof are good but they haven't overcome their injury problems and Larnach has been inconsistent/injured and regressed this year. I'm not even sure about our veterans either because they've struggled (Carlos) or been injury riddled (Buxton/Polanco).
  17. Hashim
    I would be shocked if STL traded Goldschmidt or Arenado, and especially for that package. They're definitely going to want top/top prospects for Goldschmidt or Arenado. It's already been mentioned everywhere they're just retooling for next year and are not going to trade their top hitters. They want pitching in return for some of their lower tier hitters like De Jong and others.
  18. Hashim
    STL can definitely resign Gray and Maeda if they want. They're a first class organization, especially in FA. I don't think that package will get Goldschmidt or Arenado though.
  19. Hashim
    Good article. Sometimes minor changes/tweaks can become major improvements. Imagine if we had a decent bullpen and competent (not great) right handed hitters? A few positive tweaks could help this team go a long way much like it has historically went for former teams that surged at the right time. The 1987 Twins, the Cardinals and the Phillies come to mind. You're point about Buxton and Correa is well noted, however, maybe we/Twins need to come up with a plan for Buxton to get healthier or move out of CF and into RF or LF. I still believe in this team, even though we might be very negative a times. I do believe in the old adage that good pitching always beats good hitting, and we have some good/decent pitchers.
  20. Hashim
    They could’ve gotten David Robertson for 2 very young players in FCL or Single A like the Marlins just did. Why are they just sitting there. We need bullpen help and a RH outfielder. Get Adam Duvall and Brad Hand from the Rockies.
  21. Hashim
    Why would we give up Raya, the only high end starter in our farm system. Raya should only be traded for an ace or a great position player.
  22. Hashim
    I know how you feel. What pathetic effort in a must win game.
  23. Hashim
    Pathetic team and effort. Terrible management. If we can’t hit lefties, why doesn’t the manager make the right adjustments.
  24. Hashim
    We don’t need anymore lefties either.
  25. Hashim
    Trade them now while they have value?
