  1. I completely agree. Fedko or Gonzalez. So what if you have to remove someone from the 40 man roster. There are plenty of candidates.
  2. My guess that Vazquez wants to demonstrate that he is recovered from his infection and wants to play somewhere next year. Preferably for someone else.
  3. Rocco is a poor manager. When he is eventually fired, he will be hard pressed to remain a major league manager. His longevity is purely a result of ownership moving far too slowly and their reluctance to fire someone with time left on their contract. I can not understand his extension this year. At all.
  4. That's pretty logical. My problem with both is they should only play outfield in an emergency. Having a full time dh works best with a Nelson Cruz type hitter and neither have demonstrated that hitting prowess.
  5. Twins 7, Yankees 0. Cat bites dog. Twins result a happy occurrence...anomoly.
  6. They both need to buy first baseman's gloves and hope to impress elsewhere or in spring training.
  7. I agree, but don't tell Baldelli that analytics aren't anything. He might challenge you to a duel. Pistols maybe. Martin is hitting darned well and the fact that he is playing a lot seemingly has everything to do with it.
  8. Same for me Doc. Baldelli has shown all to frequently that he doesn't trust his eyes and manages soley by his spread sheet. His sudden "discovery" of aggressive base running is sad. Sad in that it took so long and one of his assistants to talk him into it. Next thing you know, he might discover the value of playing players at their best positions.
  9. Great job putting into words exactly how I feel about Byron. He is an electrifying player and certainly appears to be a darned good guy. He has been my favorite Twins since he came up.
  10. I always thought of Plouffe as the "statue" of liberty at 3rd. Little to no mobility.

  12. I like picking up Bradley and feel like he can be a solid #4 type of starter. Jax has had a poor season and Bradley can help.
  13. Let Julien pack; he would probably drop his suitcases on the way out.
  14. I feel similarly. It's difficult to understand that he can't make himself an adequate fielder. I think most of us thought, at one time, that he was good enough to make that happen.
  15. I agree with just about everything you stated. This is, of course, the optimistic perspective. It's easy to not be hopeful at all given the poor leadership from Pohlad to Falvey and Rocco. I certainly don't care for the ownership or Rocco. If I'm honest, Falvey has some excuses, namely the Pohlads. That said, his corporate speak and BS comments continue to be enfuriating. If the Twins keep the rotation intact for next season, then your optimistic comments could come to fruition. Here's hoping!
  16. Eduardo Tait is just killing it in High A ball. I'm trying not to get overly excited about it, but what else is there? Might as well hope he is a difference maker.
  17. I think first base is Wallner's best bet to remain on the team. His play in the outfield is not acceptable. Also, I don't trust Emma as a guy who can hold down an everyday position (health). He has been unable to do so in the minors.
  18. I think the power is going to happen for Jenkins. He seems to have really quick hands at the plate and an ability to turn on inside pitches.
