    Not sure how you get worse than the worst 2B since Steve Sax had a public nervous breakdown in the Bronx, but it might be the one thing I'd have confidence in Julien doing...
  2. Bodie
    And only an abject, legally certified moron, would compare a baseball player to... well, Eddie Julien.
  3. Bodie
    Well at least there is one truly modern Twins prospect in Smith... "Bottom of the spectrum" defense and 'potential power'! Sounds worse than any scouting report on this site for certain season opening 2B... Yikes!
  4. Bodie
    He joined that club no one wants to be in: Million dollar arm and ten cent head. Ryan Leaf has someone to mentor!
  5. Bodie
    Well, there must be a reason exit velocity is part of the tripple crown... What?

    Player of the Week in the AL? We knew who it really earned it, and now it is official. Congratulations Luke Keaschall!!!
  7. Bodie
    Word is that Torii Hunter has figured out how to lay off the (very) low slider... Some things change. Some things need to change. Sometimes they just don't!
  8. Bodie
    And all it took for the worst 2B to be on a roster was trading half the roster...

    If your basic (and honest effort is pretty basic) needs are met, you and I will likely get a surprising number of wins as a "bonus"! With or without those bonus wins, it is already easier to truly root for "the kids" than it was...

    "Cannon" is a perfect descriptor for Wallner's arm. Incredible power in it, but takes forever to reload. Elite arms are Howitzers. Much faster load time making it an asset in action.
  11. Bodie
    Two weeks ago my expectations were that the Twins would play heartless, uninspired and fundamentally... well, I guess terrible is as strong as will be allowed. Good riddance to such expectations!
  12. Bodie
    That last Sox playoff team was seen not as an endpoint but of a decade of coming Chicago dominance of at least the AL Central. Jackie Robinson II and his precipitous drop-off were "shocking" and "unprecedented" (ESPN talking heads, sane and lucid as always) but were almost matched by the fall of the ChiSox as a whole!
  13. Bodie
    100% true. Also true? Not going to miss the best Twins SS I've seen play. I'd rather see Greg Gagne or Roy Smalley man the position. Today. Guessing at about 60 and 70+ years old. I know they'd try! (Sorry, just a tad too young to remember quality Zolo Versialles)
  14. Bodie
    The catchers are mortal!!!! Time to see just how shallow (or, underrated!) the Twins catching actually is. I won't even wonder how Vasquez is out with "an infected shoulder"... assuming a typo by AP's overnight staff.
  15. Bodie
    Even at his best, his output had to be considered disappointing based on what was expected. His "eye", a supposed asset never made the majors. He was never the quality contact hitter he showed in the minors. A quality MLB player can still be a disappointment. If Sano was ever a quality overall player can be debated. What really cannot is that he never approached the heights that most baseball people saw for him.
  16. Bodie
    Still waiting for Miguel Sano's MiLB numbers to translate.... And those were actually spectacular stats, across the board. And added such tantalizing morsels such a season with more walks than Ks (Iirc) at high A.
  17. Bodie
    Good thing Julien is your comp for him. Keeps him from falling from "one of the worst defenders" any further...
  18. Bodie
    McCusker... thanks for the laughs. Needed that!
  19. Bodie
    How dare you?!?! Lucid? Rational? This is a fan(atic) site! If you don't admit he is already a perennial all-star held back by Falvey incompetence and/or Pohlad cheapness nobody will/can believe you! No matter how right you are...
  20. Bodie
    "Dismantling" this team wasn't just the best idea out if the Twins braintrust in years, it was ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY!!! Quit polishing last months turdsandwich and telling us it was tuna fish!
  21. Bodie
    What you are describing is a "team". It is this revolutionary idea that a group can be collectively better than the sum of the individuals. Twins fans can be forgiven for forgetting this concept, as it hasn't been seen on a diamond in several years...
  22. Bodie
    Same sort of "elite" as an outfielder with an elite arm that gets run on more than anyone. Successfully. Or the "elite" reliever whose blown 7 games in just over a half season. You know, Falvey-esque, new Twins-style elite!
  23. Bodie
    Interesting idea, but at the end of the day, will you have produced starting pitching, or simply "uncovered" your next long reliever?
  24. Bodie
    How about we see 100 ABs first? All right, I didn't mean to be Debbie Downer. I'll settle for 50.
  25. Bodie
    Twinsdaily.com seems to think it is a viable business model...
