  1. May threw 151 two years ago and 149 last year. He's at 144 so far this year, and I'm guessing they'd like to extend him past 150. It means he won't be pitching for Rochester in the (potential) playoffs and won't be getting called up.
  2. Plouffe is the 3B of the present, NOT the future. Sano is very clearly the 3B of the future, no one should have any question about that.
  3. What about Rohlfing? He would seem to fit the rules, and he hasn't played a ton this year (neither has Knudson).
  4. They sent Escobar down to get playing time. Carroll wasn't really playing, so bringing him back doesn't make sense to me. You don't actually need two utility infielders on the bench. I think they'll replace Carroll with Mastrionni.
  5. 2004 was the last time, when they hit 191 HRs. The difference this year isn't that they are hitting more, it's that they are giving up far fewer. They are 2nd in the AL is HR allowed.
  6. He cost 20x as much and isn't really any better than Florimon right now. No thanks.
  7. What if it got a long shot prospect in the low minors. Would you eat the entire salary for Brett Lee and Jhonathon Gonclaves?
  8. Um, no. why would the Twins want a washed up rental for the rest of this year? If they want vets to eat innings, they have Blackburn, Davies and Vasquez ready or close to it in the minors.
  9. I took 3+ weeks off when my son was born, I'm glad there wasn't a blog full of jerks judging me over that.
  10. I find it ridiculous that its limited to 3 games.
  11. The cases are a bit different since Duensing is under team control for 3 more years and Morneau is a FA in 3 months. But in both cases, the return would have a better chance (however minimal) of playing a meaningful role on the next contending Twins team than 3 months of Morneau or 3 years of Duensing.
  12. He didn't in June! You can't promote someone everytime they have a hot streak.
  13. And he's killing the GCL through 18 games: .344/.419/.609/1.028
  14. Perkins will still be cheap and in his prime when the wave of talent is up and ready. Unless they can get a huge haul for him, that has more value than a A-ball prospect that won't be ready yet in '15.
  15. What? How is it "better treatment from their manager" to have him say publicly that they suck instead of that they need more swings? That's bizarre.
  16. I could see both Morneau and Willingham moving in August. Neither of them would have any problem clearing waivers.
  17. He's up to 73+ innings now. As a reliever last year and in college he's probably at the most he's thrown in several years. I'm guessing they were fine with him getting just 3-4 innings last night.
  18. Excellent write-up! I bought 3 of those extra walk-up tickets last night. I would hazard a guess that it was more due to the absolutely PERFECT weather than Pelfrey's rehab start. 75, sunny and not humid on July 1st? That'll get anyone out of the house! It was also awesome to see Kepler play (and hit a bomb). He's going to be a good one.
  19. Those numbers only say one thing to me: SSS
  20. Colabello hit #15 on the season. Also, Wilkin Ramirez is DHing for the Miracle. He's 0-3 with a walk.
  21. Yes, you are the only one.
  22. I'm still confused how Buxton is injury prone because Bo Jackson dislocated his hip playing football.
  23. They actually have 2 that are better than him: Mauer and Morneau.
