    I've been a strong believer in Wallner but he's running out of runway to get that plane off the ground. Odd that SW-R had a very nice first outing for the Jays and has been sitting for a week. Maybe they weren't that impressed.

    The pitchers are making some bad mistakes, but it's hard to improve fielding when the pitchers on the team keep rotating out. Lots of turnover.
  3. big dog
    To be fair, they didn't trade it away- they gave away the player and part of the contract.

    Lewis can play second- he would help the team more there if he can do it. Fedko can have Larnach's spot. Why are you making this so hard? What has the team got to lose?
  5. big dog
    Ok, bring up Culpepper and Mendez. Bring up Sabato and Fedko. If they can’t play, why are they in the organization? Why not find out? Is another year at St Paul going to make Fedko better? Let’s make some decisions here, not just tread water. None of the guys I named as gone should be on the team next year. This team is going nowhere but down. Why do we need to learn more about Josh Bell, who is on a one-year contract? Guys we got for free? We learned it. Try something different.

    This team has to quit trying to kinda sorta be not terrible this year. Sorry, Tommy P, that's the best you can claim to be doing. Look to the future. Release the utility infielders. Release Bell. See what you can get for Larnach. Bring up the kids and let them play. What is taking so long to figure this out?
  7. big dog
    Nolan Ryan.
  8. big dog
    I vote for d) other. Time to try someone else, none of them have a future with a team trying for the playoffs someday.

    Batting cleanup...Orlando Arcia! Are we even trying anymore? This is freaking ridiculous. I'm sorry, I try not be just reflexively hacked off about everything, but come on.

    Sim W-R pitched for the Jays against the Phillies. 4 IP, 1 H, 0 BB, 3 Ks.

    I'm glad to see him making progress and I hope he can keep improving. I'm sorry- was I supposed to post something bitter and negative? Maybe I missed the memo.
  12. big dog
    Maybe Brian Duensing’s been working out. Zoll- make the call!!

    Dear Tom Pohlad, Glad your plan is in place. Keep up the great work. big dog

    I thought about that, but is someone who is hitting well with 90 at-bats really as valuable as someone hitting slightly less well but getting 150 at-bats? I decided to go with amount of activity, at-bats or innings pitched, as a measure of the role they play on the team. Everyone is free to disagree about the best way to do this. Lots of correct answers to this essay question.

    Royce sounds like he needs a hug. I hope he can work through this.
  18. big dog
    OK, let's bring Gonzalez up to play first base. I saw one play, I'm sold. Time to start playing for next year.
  19. big dog
    And define "addition". Sounds like if you use WAR we might have another "subtraction".
  20. big dog
    So glad we just bought a new reliever who is on a different team every few weeks. These guys are gold, we just have to work that Pete Maki Magic on them! If they can just try 20 or 30 more they are bound to find one who is at least league-average.
  21. big dog
    They haven't quit. Hope they can keep churning.
  22. big dog
    Amen, brother. The game I saw in Oakland where he blew a solid lead in the ninth now ranks as "just another day". I gotta move on.
  23. big dog
    I wonder how late it is at night when Bowden plugs in his Random Names To Trade generator and starts writing down what spews out. Really late, probably.
  24. big dog
    I expect regression, sure. But I really hope they don’t regress to last year.
  25. big dog
    One slight adjustment should be made- one of the times he was thrown out was when he ran toward second in an attempt to get a throw so Buck could score from third. They threw down, he was out, the Twins scored the run. Not his fault- that has to have been called from the dugout.
