    With so few sellers at the deadline the competition may be fierce for guys that are available. At least this way we can see what we have in Nance and Go before the deadline. Hoping tom Pohlad is pushing Zoll to look at all possibilities to improve that bullpen.

    Giving out multi year contracts to 30 year old starting pitchers is risky business. Great article...it made up my mind. Some team would have to really offer MLB talent or MLB ready talent at the deadline for the Twins to trade Joe. Twins should trade Joe but in the off season.

    Good trade. By that I mean it was a good trade for both teams. Jax gets a chance to pitch in the playoffs and be a starting pitcher. Twins get a #2 starting pitcher controllable for 3 more years.

    A lot of games are won and lost in innings 7-9. Morris, Rojas and Gomez at least gives us a chance. We are still trying to win. Paredes has done a serviceable job as a #5 starter. Leave him there and put Rojas in the pen. Next year the circumstances will be entirely different more than likely... maybe he gets his chance to start then.

    He can always go back to starting if he develops command and 2 more pitches. Right now we are still in the chase and desperately need bullpen help. Give him a chance and take a chance the Twins can help him with command. That is a special arm and I would want to do this even if Banda was heaalthy.

    Alan Roden should be up on the big league club. Can he cut it? Then you trade Larnach. Trade Jeffers otherwise you lose Jackson. If you trade those 2 pieces you should be able to add 2 players to help fill holes on your team which should be pitching and you have not created a hole in your position player depth. I admire what Tampa Bay has done but it does not work every time. Milwaukee has been extremely successful with a payroll similar to ours. They do a version of the Tampa Bay guide and they don't mind trading away soon to be free agents. Hopefully Mr. Zoll looks around and studies the sucessfull teams similar to his team.

    Bulk reliever or single innings this bullpen needs pitchers. He has earned the right to at least give the bullpen a shot.

    Good to see the young guy get his chance. I can watch a young guy struggle instead of a retread throwing a prayer up to home plate. The youth movement is on... who will be next?
  9. miller761
    Hasn't he played some 1B this year?
  10. miller761
    All the conversation here shows how tough a job being a GM is.
  11. miller761
    There is room for both Lewis and Clemens in the lineup. Clemens can play right field. Martin is playing too much and has been exposed. Same for Gray and Kriedler. Outman and Arcia should go and Fedko and Royce should be up. The direction of our season will be decided in the next 2 weeks. We have to improve our run scoring.
  12. miller761
    How many times has Funderburk walked the leadoff hitter who a lot of times is batting left handed? He has been given like multiple different chances this year with the same result. Our bullpen has not been dreadful lately with Shelton doing a great job matching up but walks have been given up at an alarming rate and a lot of those batters who have walked have scored.
  13. miller761
    Give Royce a shot at 1B in St. Paul.
  14. miller761
    Appreciate that Shelton and Zoll are starting to make moves. Even if we are going anywhere right now we are still in it
  15. miller761
    Got a right fielder in St. Paul that we can be this excited about?
  16. miller761
    There is nobody in the bullpen right now that can get those tough outs in the 8 or the final outs in the 9th. In my opinion the current team has an offense that can win games and starting pitching that can win games. We would have a winning record right now if the bullpen could get those tough outs. Many have had the chance and failed. Give Festa a chance to close. What is there to lose? There is much more to gain. You can then build your earlier relievers based on who is doing well and matchups. We have 4 who could do that job. There is nothing more deflating to team morale than what is happening now. We build a lead and lose the game. That is why we have not won a 1 run game yet. This is the majors and only 1 stat matters - wins. I think Festa at the back of our bullpen gives us a much better chance of winning.

    Activate Royce send down Lee, Waive Outman bring up Roden. Kriedler to SS. Defense has to be better. Again I say just make the plays in front of you. No excuse for defense at the MLB level like the Twins are showing.

    Somewhere TK is shaking his head!!

    Walks and hit batters have to be unacceptable for this current teams. Catching the balls you are supposed to is a close second. Make teams hit to beat you don't give them extra outs and baserunners. This Twins team can be an 80 win team but the 2 things I mentioned above must be executed. We have 2 other shortstops on current roster and Royce is coming back. Sit Lee or send him down and give the other 2 a good look, Send down or sit Wallner if there are players producing at AAA. If a player has no track record of success why do the Twins stick with said player. Tom Kelly expected a player to make the plays expected of them...not the great plays they are a bonus. I had hoped Shelton would be different than Rocco in this area. We are 20 games in to the season with an off day tomorrow before the road trip. Time for Shelton to make some changes with shortstop, right field and in the bullpen.
  20. miller761
    Where do the Twins stand on number of walks taken? Walks seem to be evident in innings where we score runs.
  21. miller761
    Love how Shelton uses his bullpen. Relievers coming back out for an extra out or inning.
  22. miller761
    Why can we not expect at least the same results from Lee that our $30 million short stop gave us last year. I think and expect Lee to do that at a fraction of the salary cost. Would that be so bad?
  23. miller761
    See what happens when we get to July. That will make the front office decision for them.
  24. miller761
    How about Ober in the bullpen?
  25. miller761
    Martin has earned the right to play everyday!! Let the kid go and see what happens. Also Roden needs to play everyday against right handed pitching. Larnach should be traded for a right handed relief pitcher. Wallner plays if he produces. Martin and Roden can add speed and athleticism to the team. We need more of that.
