    This is old-fashioned baseball two to one. Great pitching with the exception of Pagan who will continue to get saved chances because the front office acquired him and they like to have success from their new acquisitions. I know it said we don't have a true closer, but Pagan has three saves. They do use him in the 9th when they have him available. I love the young guys and with a bring to the team I'm not even sure where Kiriloff plays in this lineup. Which is a nice problem. It is my hope that Louis shine so well that he doesn't get sent back down. And winder has no earned the right to continue to start. Great game which gives me wonderful enthusiasm for this team

    I have no patience for reclamation vets, when we have such great pitching prospects. Winder has now established that he belongs in the rotation. And I am happy to have all of the low budget veterans struggle for the fifth spot on the rotation. But can the front office and management admit that our own players are better and cut their losses

    Love a day like this for all our prospects shine

    Once again the danger of the big contract. I am not against the signing, but realize how tough it is to count on anyone.
  5. mikelink45
    The biggest question - who is back up? I do not see Sanchez staying, I do not see Godoy long term. Where is the next glove?
  6. mikelink45
    This is exciting. I imagine an infield of Kiriloff, Polanco, Lewis, Miranda and an OF of Larnach, Buxton, Kepler, Celestino. I like it. Sorry old vets, this is the wave of the future coming in quickly. Now keep Jeffers hitting and find another back up.

    If you go for the super premium $100 a month option. You get Tim laudner autograph and a sticker to put on your window that says Sinclair really got me this time.

    After all the optimism, it is up to the Twins to right the ship in a hurry. This was a bad game and I know we are going to lose games, but these are the Orioles and they are the teams that we need to beat up on.
  9. mikelink45
    No, because I have not understood the hype. I am a prove it first fan and he has not earned the ratings and the press he has gotten. I sincerely hope he succeeds, but like Wander Javier, Cavaco, and other I am not impressed until I see results.
  10. mikelink45
    I will not send a dollar to Sinclair. Their ethics leave me listening to the radio.
  11. mikelink45
    Where is Buxton I like seeing celestino gets a playing time in as bad as come around but nobody matches Buxton and I can't believe it's time to give him a rest

    In another post I commented that it was to early to anoint this staff tonight was proof.

    Tonight demonstrated why I am not willing to buy into the "this rotation is better than we thought" postings. Let's see them show it for another 6 weeks. You can judge batters much quicker than pitchers.
  14. mikelink45
    C J Cron - oh, wait, we did not want him. Oh well - Arraez and Miranda are fine. We do not need another strikeout specialist.
  15. mikelink45
    As the old guy that questions a lot of quick judgments, I need to get to at least June before giving the rotation a grade.
  16. mikelink45
    What strikes me is how weak the AAA rotation is compared to the arms at other levels. Immediate help for the Twins - is Smeltzer and calling back Sands.
  17. mikelink45
    I always expect a pitcher - Cano? Nothing changes as much as the rotation and bullpen.
  18. mikelink45
    I like the choice. He didn't choose where they put him, instead he has taken the challenge that was in front of him and made the most of it
  19. mikelink45
    Excellent. I look forward to his debut.
  20. mikelink45
    No I'm excited. So glad to see winder in the rotation and I hope he stays there
  21. mikelink45
    I'm interested to see how the postings that say we had only Rogers for one year. I believe extensions and resignings are allowed.
  22. mikelink45
    I reserve judgment - Rogers has 8 games, no runs, 7 saves, 0.625 whip, 8 Ks - I think we could still use him. Paddack is better than he has been and hopefully will continue to develop - I am glad we have him, but my expectations are limited until I see more.
  23. mikelink45
    It is hard not to be optimistic. But we have to look at who we beat and be ready for some tough times and challenges. I really like celestino coming through as well as seeing Correa starting to get hits. If Ober is hurt we need to keep winder in the rotation.
  24. mikelink45
    Hard not to at this time. Enjoy. We will have enough time for anguish.
  25. mikelink45
    Nice to see smeltzer doing well. But he better stick to the mound and not as an analyst. There are a lot of us who listened and check in on baseball I do not want to sit through three and a half hours a game
