    I think he was sent down due to the rules about who has more options left and who doesn't. Lawrence has the best earned run average on the team so the rules make him have to go to AAA. evidently the twins don't think anybody in the bullpen is not worth keeping by giving up on your best era reliever. I saw his last game and he was really great. another guy the the twins don't seem to like is Bowman. his last two games have been phenomenal. he has been on a streak of success so that's another guy that needs to be up there.

    I was reading on how the Milwaukee Brewers do it and look where they are. I'm just making up an example so when you have a great star player and he has given the team 12 great years but Mike can give three more great years. there are organizations that would love to have that three great years for some ready or almost ready replacement to build on. if you wait until he's completed his entire majorly career, he don't have anything to replace him with that's related to him. we certainly don't want to lose Byron Buxton but if he was traded for a place of great need like a starting picture and a high quality relief person. then he can know that when he got traded he helped the team. but if he is determined to wait until retirement, he's not helping the team's future at all. well, that's just one man's opinion. if anything's not written well, I don't proofread these things as I say them.

    I did not think about how lackey was acquired. you know you have to look back at things and roden I'm thinking he made a number of adjustments and he still looks like he can become something great out there. but so far his batting average is still very low, but we're hopeful.

    I like the Bradley trade and I have high hopes for Rojas. I think he's special and yes, Varland was just kind of average but I think he has the best iron run average in the league right now for a closer. that's a lot to lose. however, the bullpen is getting better, isn't it? yesterday is two nothing loss was a disaster

    of course you never see anyone in the twins organization participating in the remarks section, but I would certainly like an answer as to why the two best closers in the game aren't at least one of them still playing for the twins? Yes, that was some good talent acquired, but I don't see any of those people replacing an individual who can close baseball games with only rarely giving up a run, ensuring the win as important as that part of the game is. I've been a twins fan since the middle '60s. I've never seen this kind of release of talent before and the return is never what you think it's going to become because they're still in the minor leagues unproven Major League talent so you're taking a big chance and it rarely works out. there are so many examples of that. so Mr. Falvey in spite of your supposed great baseball knowledge, ability to evaluate this is a no.

    I think Bell leads to team and runs batted in. would you really want to trade your RBI leader?
  13. killercarewoliva
    that is the main thing. how could the GM let varland go for two people that look really good but you don't know for sure this is baseball. varland has become a superstar. he was perfect for the twins organization and the GM sits in the booth. oh! we love Louie but it was the opportunity we couldn't pass up well. seems like you were wrong. emphatically pathetically wrong. glad you're gone. I tried to believe in you but it's not possible. never was.

    Yes Lackey is incredible. I saw some video on the number 4 pick which was the next pick. Forget his name, a pitcher. Now I saw real incredible so I was kind of hoping for that. That dude was light years ahead of all other pitchers in the draft.

    every team has injuries but this team just mounds one on top of another. it's amazing they have the record they do considering that. there are qualified outfielters in AAA and to improve the bullpen you have to give something to get something. so in order for even one of them to come up you have to trade or somebody gets hurt or they're not coming up until September. Roden Will be on the bench when Buxton returns. Larnake has worked hard and has a improved season. so the only way to get a good reliever is to trade a good player. there are several I think could do well in left field and maybe a good 2.90 era. reliever could be acquired. All the good pitching Major League ready seems to already be up due to injuries.

    unfortunately, yes, that is true. I think the guy is going to be phenomenal and very enjoyable to watch on the mound. it's a great loss.

    Abel I loved to see but he is probably out for the rest of the season..

    if this team is going to serve up home runs to one guy Goodman by placing the ball in exactly the same spot, three consecutive times at back. that's his home run spot and we just gave it to him three straight times. don't they talk about this stuff in The dugout? he hit a home run from right there. don't put it there again. I don't know when I've seen it that bad. you're not going to win ball games if you do stuff like that so you might as well sell players off at the trade deadline but hopefully that won't be the approach.
  23. killercarewoliva
    certainly he's not a center. fielder we don't know why he was there but he plays the outfield pretty well otherwise and the numbers he's been putting up in AAA has been way good again. we don't know what's going to happen when you get in front of Major League pitching.
  24. killercarewoliva
    I wasn't big on Bell so much either but he's on the way to 90 runs batted in if everything goes like it's been going on. we have plenty of people for the field so he's become a pretty good DH.

    The twins used to be known for defense. now the defense is worst I've seen in years. Roden is great. at defense it's lights out at the plate. hopefully that can transfer to the major leagues somewhat I'm afraid Warner's just going to go back to striking out a lot. he's never done anything else but that. we recall Vargas who hit the longest home runs you've ever seen and Warner can put it out there but that's it. they don't last as Major league players. The saints are loaded with great outfielters but Fedko did not hit in the spring games and he has demolished AAA but he must be a AAAA player when it comes to offense. great young man. hate to see him demoted but I think it's time for Roden.
