    All right boys, here we go. Time to set a tone for the rest of the season: "This shall not stand."

    Never over 'til it's over, get on base. On the other hand...what's up with Oriole hitters smacking our catchers with a bat? If there's something that deserves some yapping, and maybe a couple of inside fastballs, that's my choice.

    Only two wild pitches so far from Duke...two batters. Hmmm...

    Holy crap am I excited for this season to start. Go Twins!

    "Key Losses: C Chris Gimenez, LHP Hector Santiago, LHP Glen Perkins" You know, I think we can probably shrug that off...

    Sano manages to play 145 games.

    I think in a case like this, the trainer's name should be announced so that other players know who they might want to avoid. If the trainer denies it, fine, but let's air all this out. Players deserve to know. If they blame their trainer wrongly, let the trainer sue them. This will never stop otherwise.

    How did a foul ball to the chin result in a rod being inserted in his leg? EDIT- shin, got it. I do believe that leg injuries might be more easily aggravated when that leg is propping up a large body compared to a small body, but that's just a guess...

    Oh good, more exciting news.

    Thanks- I'd characterize that as however long it takes to show he's back to pre-injury form. That makes sense to me.

    Fair enough- what do you think constitutes "proving himself" for a prospect? Two full seasons somewhere? A year at AA or above? I'm never quite sure where that line is for myself and it's interesting to hear what others use. The age-old potential vs. track record debate, I suppose. Anyway, just wondering what your personal stance is on that.

    Agreed with above, another Matt Lawton would be a nice piece to have.

    MLB.com lists Wander Javier as one of "12 prospects who just missed the top 100", saying "Javier could shoot up the top shortstops list in a hurry." https://www.mlb.com/news/12-prospects-who-just-missed-the-top-100-list/c-265553816

    Plus we've done pretty well trading for and trading him, so I'm willing to get back into that market.
  17. big dog
    Agreed, though I think it might be more accurate to say that he hits well off the Twins. Even a better reason not to sign him!

    Eddie Rosario: figure out when to either hit the cutoff man or just throw to second to keep the runner from advancing. Then go to the All-Star game.
  19. big dog
    I like the trade but would like it a lot better for 3 years of control rather than just two.
  20. big dog
    mlb.com says that the Tigers would listen to offers for Michael Fulmer. Not a huge stud, but maybe we can trade with Gardy...Casilla, Lew Ford, Duensing, and Toby Gardenhire to manage one of their minor league teams? Get 'er done!

    Agree with jimmer and Linus. Very glad to see Joe with a 3.4 WAR rather than the 1 or 2 the last few years. I'm thankful we don't have the Ghost of Albert Pujols signed for four more years at an average salary of $28.5 million (plus a $10 million personal services contract after the baseball contract expires).

    I'm still amazed that Stuart Turner stuck with the Reds all season, with a short DL stint. 82 at-bats...not much of a season. The Reds didn't have much to lose, I guess.

    If a 4 means better than a marginal major leaguer, I'll take the under on Turley. He's going to be in ML bullpens, I bet, but I don't think he's going to be a major part of a good one. I was a little sorry to see him go, though, but of course I'm interested to see what happens with the new additions. After being worse with the Yankees for a year than he was with the Twins, Aaron Hicks had a great half-season this year, then fought injuries. I hope he has a good career, but he's not exactly David Ortiz yet. Swarzak's had a good year, a bad one, and a very good one since he left. Swarzak's 32 already- how did that happen?

    Buzzkill...In related news, every cute kitten will die someday. I'd like to win a playoff game soon. Then we can go from there. Let's get some pitchers. Do this.
