  1. Larnach's hitting .294 which is why I hang on to him. However, now that I finally check, Jenkins splits against LP are pretty awful. I assumed they were good because of all the hype. Maybe the genius scouts just said "my he's a handsome devil, isn't he".
  2. I remember seeing Arcia at Fort Myers this spring and it looked like he was running through molasses. Surprised he lasted this long. That being said, it's a race to the Mendoza Line for Roden and Lewis. They might need help all around.
  3. Trading the Twins elite pitcher for prospect, prospect, suspect, prospect, Bueller, and "knocking on the door of the upper minors". Let's do this! I'm totally psyched!
  4. Rather than dumping a guy, I would flip Roden for one of the pretend phenoms such as Jenkins to see what he can do.
  5. I know this is a minority viewpoint, but I wouldn't be so eager to dump Larnach. Some of those guys in the minors haven't even proven they can stay on a baseball field for a full season, let alone hold up under the grind of a Major League schedule. The "logjam" is an illusion. Make them earn it rather than hand it to them.
  6. Getting shut out at home by the no pitch Athletics is not exactly revving up for a play off push. I think they just made their definitive buy/sell statement.
  7. They probably will sell - which means it'll probably be at least 3 years before they're even competitive again - which also means I have to massively cut down on the sugar and alcohol if I'm going to live to see it.
  8. Although Lewis is 27 years old, he's missed a huge amount of time, which obviously has a large impact on development at the highest level of baseball. Three years ago Buxton hit .207, as an example of how injuries can impact players - or even the improvement of Larnach - who hasn't been hampered by injuries. If they jettison Lewis it would be a calculated gamble. It all depends on the deal they can get. It wouldn't be a surprise if he suddenly puts it all together.
  9. Overlooking the condescension in your yeah, hmmmmmmm comment, yes they're all in play - FOR THE RIGHT DEAL. And determining the right deals is why Zoll gets paid the big bucks.
  10. I got all excited when they recently took 2 out of 3 in New York which is a rare occurrence to say the least. But it's pretty clear that this team as currently constructed doesn't quite have the horsepower for consistent performance. And it's all about winning to bring the fans back. Anybody should be available for the right deal.
  11. The Twins are full of team players, so they're working hard together to make the buy/sell decision an easy one for management. Not just losses, but no chance, embarrassing, blowout losses.
  12. Sonny Gray is 12 and 1 for the Red Sox. He'd look pretty good in the Twins' rotation. Letting him go was a more significant blunder than signing Carlos Correa IMO. Instead, they're sending out 8th round pick Zebby Matthews against the Cubs and hoping he becomes a pitcher some day.
  13. The eerie part of all this is that Tom Pohlad looks almost exactly like my brother - whose name is Tom. There's something very strange going on here.
