  1. Micheal Lorenzen. 4th/5th starter depth Andrew Chafin. Lefty reliever; something we could use. Lucas Erceg. Righty reliever that could have added some value.
  2. Boo. I can't believe this is the move the Twins made. Decent rental starters were available at reasonable prices based on the transactions shown. The Twins could be as good as anyone in the AL with just the slightest effort from ownership. It seems to me the Pohlads are unwilling to make that push to take the Twins over the top. Welcome to the Tampa Bay Rays in MN.
  3. The Twins are close to being as good as anyone. I think another starter is essential. Could the Twins do great with our current club? I think so? Does that depend upon no injuries to the starters? Or no regression? I think a resounding yes. We need quality/proven depth with our starting pitching.
  4. Perfectly stated! I think Dobbie will be pitching for a major league team this season. Maybe it's the Twins, but someone is going to want him.
  5. It's probably too soon to be concerned about Brock Stewart; however, we certainly need him to return to form.
  6. What is SO encouraging about Wallner is he is squaring up breaking balls which were his Achilles heel at the start of the season.
  7. Julien is a relatively simple call...but Martin, man oh man, that's tough. This is a good problem to have.
  8. We all know the biggest need is another starter; especially with Paddack on the shelf, again. Between Varland moving to the pen down the stretch and possibly Paddack as well, I feel like the Twins are in great shape with the bullpen.
  9. I'd say SWR has "graduated" to our 4th starter. Not bad, when he was the 6th or 7th starter in spring training.
  10. When Royce Lewis, Miranda and Correa are all off the DL (hopefully not too long from now) and with Lee on the roster, what else is there to do with Farmer? One way or another, I think that is when he is no longer a Twin.
  11. I think you are quite wrong. Falvey is winning in a medium sized market and has, overall, made the Twins better than when he got there. Take a look at the minor leagues and the Twins have reinforcements on the way and legitimate depth. Falvey is a good get for MANY organizations.
  12. A mind boggling play and the way he laid out to make the tag; wow! And you have to believe that play will be included in the ceremony.
  13. Very well stated. I think the best thing that can happen for the Twins is for Lopez to return to form. He has pitched well in (I believe) 3 of has last 4 starts. That gives the Twins 3 very solid starters and backed by two decent starters. Another starter to improve our depth is something the front office ought to pursue.
  14. I know they made the move for Castillo; however, for the short term, I would have thought Julien would be called up.
  15. no doubt, this is what, I think, most of us were hoping...that Brooks Lee could be a good 2nd bagger. Wow!
  16. That's how i see it as well. Unless things change (which of course they can/will), the Twins top 3 starters look like good playoff starters. I agree with the premise that the Twins need another playoff worthy starter, but I don't feel like that starter needs to be better than Ober as the cost is likely prohibitive. What's funny is that it seems like the general consensus before the season started is that the Twins were one good starter from having a playoff competitive team. Seemingly, that remains the case. Stewart, Paddock and Varland likely bolster the pen and the hitting just needs to avoid injuries!
  17. So cool for Willi Castro. And a very nice article!
