    He needs to skip a turn,this blow up inning has happened 4 of 6 starts.It seems to be with 2 outs in the inning as well.Also you can see it coming and Maki should see it and go for visit.Maybe Rocco and Maki think its Pablo,he will get out of it.
  2. David Maro
    Its now a concern with Lopez,it's not the weather like people thought.We have seen 4 out of 6 starts with a blow up inning.It might be time to skip a start.If I was Washington,he needs to put Hicks in Right and move Adell to DH.He pretty much gave the Twins 2 games with his poor play.Hopefully we go to Chicago knowing they are a different team than last week.With Pham there he brings a attitude to the team.

    Need to be concerned about Paddock,after the 1st inning.His change up was right down the middle and getting hit all over the field.The White Sox made some changes and are now playing better,so the next series will be tougher.Lopez can't have another blow up inning today,because Detmers is a good pitcher.
  4. David Maro
    There needs to be some concern with Lopez and his 1 inning blow ups.This season it has happened in 3 of his 5 starts.And last night Rocco waits until the hole was already dug to even send Maki out to the mound.The White Sox only have a handful of players that are Major League players.Hopefully Ryan will pitch a strong game tonight and the team will back him up with some timely hitting.

    This is what happens when the FO who are supposed to be the end all be all of pitching.They traded away pitching to bring in dead arm pitchers one after another.Now they get what they sew.They can only hope that the big 3 stay healthy and until Varland or SWR can become a #5 go BP game.
  6. David Maro
    Varland is a batting practice pitcher at best.He is on the mound as a thrower not a pitcher.He seems to think the faster he releases his pitches the better.The team is so bad at this time they can't afford to just give games away.It is time to send him to St Paul and get SWR his opportunity.And people seem to forget Paddock has yet to show that he is a SP for this team.The next 2 weeks are the season for this team,they are already back 8 games in the division.

    Santana and Margot need to DFA.Santana has 250 ft fly ball power and Margot is a shaky fielder.Was very surprised Buxton didn't stand at home admiring has line drive to left in the 2nd.Maybe someone had a talk with him.Other than that they finally played a game of baseball.
  8. David Maro
    A real manager would have told Buxton to take a seat for not running.The way the ball came off the wall he may of gotten a inside the park HR.

    This is not a team,80 percent of the homerun they have are solo.You only have to look at Julien all solo and triple that amount in SO.How many times have they started the inning with a double and was left there because of 2 SO and a pop-up.The organization is playing to the new generation of fans,all about the homerun.Its all baseballs problem.With players using PEDS in the 90s and then juicing the baseball.They needed to put the game clock on the pitcher and hitters years ago,but now they are stuck with a all or nothing game.
  10. David Maro
    This team made a pitcher that hasn't pitched a game in the majors in 7 years look like a Cy Young award winner.And some of you say don't worry its early.
  11. David Maro
    After they lose the next 7,maybe people will know for sure this season is over.I don't know about you but I am tired of watching pitches thrown down the middle of the zone.I know yes now and again one will leak over.Varland needed to go with Wallner to St Paul and SWR should of been given the chance to stay for another start.Sometime a really big shakeup is needed.They can't let Chicago sweep or even take 2.
  12. David Maro
    Varland is a batting practice pitcher,he has no control of his Cutter.If he throws 10 Cutters 7 are on a tee.Need to send him with Wallner to St Paul.There he can work on location and Wallner can work on putting the bat on the ball.This is the Major Leagues,produce or work on things at AAA.With the way this team is playing they will be out of it by May 1st.Even Lopez is having a blow up inning in every outing.
  13. David Maro
    This one is on the manager,Theibar should not have been brought into the game.He needed to get settled before pitching in this game.And can someone tell me why Wallner is still not back in St.Paul.The only ball he hit was a 61 mph cookie in the middle of the zone.This is starting to look like a long season already,and it is April.
  14. David Maro
    Down 6-0 and strike out 15 times,let's hit 3 solo homeruns.It's time for a new plan.
  15. David Maro
    Any starter beyond Lopez is a question mark.Both Ryan and Ober had ups and downs all last season.And Paddock is a great unknown when it comes to a SP.The FO again has shown a inability to address SP.As of today this staff is going to put a strain on the BP.You need your SP to give you 5+ game after game,and I don't see it with this staff.
  16. David Maro
    I love how people say it was time for Polanco to go because of injuries.What about the CFer that has been injured for 8+ years.Polanco was never going to bring a SP with a upside.I know this is going to sound like no way,but maybe the FO should have a talk with Trevor Bauer.And yes he has some very bad baggage.He also a bit of bulldog much like Sonny Gray.And FO could sign him to a contract with a lot of incentives for a year to prove himself.
  17. David Maro
    Here we go again talking about the Buxton problem,can he or can't he play.I put this situation on the FO.All off season everyone has talked about trading Kepler,and now move him to CF.If Buxton isn't in CF the first game of ST its time to move on.The wait and see on Buxton should be over.
  18. David Maro
    If he is not in CF game 1 of ST its time to cut bait.Can't wait for him to be healthy again for another year.His body isn't built to play baseball.It will be time for the FO to draw up retirement plans for him.They can make him a minor league coach,so at least the money he's owed they get something in return.
  19. David Maro
    Same problem different year!!Can Buxton play or not.Just like last year no one knows if he will be ready to play the 1st game of ST.I think it is long past time to move on if he isn't ready.Everyone knows they need pitching and Polanco will not get them a SP pitcher they need.May get a BP arm at best.Looking at the Tigers and the Royals the Twins will need to be better this year than last.
  20. David Maro
    Twins record against the Tigers in 23 was 5-8 with the Tigers weak SP.They will win the Central if they stay healthy with the SP.
  21. David Maro
    Tigers are winning the Central!!
  22. David Maro
    Everyone is saying trade Polanco and Julien can't play 2nd.Do they really think Farmer is the answer at 2nd.And yes they may have help in St Paul,but that is not a given.As far as all the other big name players waiting on Ohtani to sign the Twins will not be signing any of them.
  23. David Maro
    Ohtani this Ohtani that,there are what 25 teams who are not looking to sign him.Why are they waiting to see where he is going.He is a good DH who can't pitch next year.The Twins have holes at 1st,2nd and center.They also are in need of a SP as well as BP help.Maybe the FO are looking for the next Bundy.What happens if Buxton can't cover center.The idea of waiting until March every year is getting old.
  24. David Maro
    This has become a Laeral and Hardy situation and almost laughable.Who's in left,who's in center and now who's in right.If Wallner could play right Kepler would of been traded in July.The FO hasn't found a LF for years now and Buxton can't play CF,do they really want to be looking for a RF too.If Buxton can't play CF opening day of Sping Training buy him out or see if he let a trade happen.If the team needs help at the trade deadline use Kepler then.To put Kirilloff in the outfield gives the team no 1st baseman.Now you have who's on 1st and who's on 2nd.Texas won the WS with the same 1st,2nd and SS playing every game.Can't win the WS with plug and play position players.
  25. David Maro
    Why even look at Bader as a CF option.He was on IL last year much as on the field.I guess he could keep Buxton company there.This Buxton situation is and has been a problem for years now.It is long past time to deal with it.If he can't play CF at the start of spring training it's time to buy him out.As far as MAT regressing next year no one can know that for sure.Why has the FO been sitting on its hands for so long on this issue.If no MAT and Buxton can't play put Castro there to start the season.
