    while I'd prefer Sano at 3rd, it seems management wants him viewed as a RF, and I would doubt Molly would do anything to sidetrack Sano's RF progression
  3. Richie the Rally Goat
    i give TR credit for blowing up the AAA and big league catching group. He realized how bad that situation was and made changes. None of the changes are step change improvements, nor are they large enough investments to impede a bigger acquisition. The biggest impediment to a significant improvement is cost, and this is exactly the way TR would solve that, by waiting for the farm. It's the catching equivalent to the rotation. JR Murphy doesn't impede anyone but could be an ok stopgap and good bench catcher. I'm with you, I'd rather have a real good catcher over a plethora of mediocre ones, but that wasn't going to happen
  4. Richie the Rally Goat
    the Twins have enough bullpen filler right now that they can move on entirely from Perk. If he somehow does manage to come back strong for the second half of the season, the pen will be that much stronger as a result.
  5. Richie the Rally Goat
    Pinch hit for Zukes right?
  6. Richie the Rally Goat
    sure I am, and I share my specialness with all of TD ;-)
  7. Richie the Rally Goat
    i take it personally. Molitor is trying to drive me bat-poop crazy
  8. Richie the Rally Goat
    ya, my wife would say "buck up buttercup"
  9. Richie the Rally Goat
    then why post on Twins Daily? If you don't care, why bother? Yes it's a ridiculous game, but it's a ridiculous game that I love! I love this team and I want to see it run well, so I care enough to point out the deficiencies and say things like In 2016 there isnt a number. 2017 is different
  10. Richie the Rally Goat
    Agree with the Fien detractors, and i agree with the play Arcia or cut him. I'm not yet ready to send Park to AAA. He seems to be patient and have a good eye, but struggling to catch up to MLB heat. Tough to learn that in AAA
  11. Richie the Rally Goat
    me too! Eduardo really knows his stuff
  12. Richie the Rally Goat
    so he would be a potential super 2? it seems like he's the injury sub on the shuttle from Rochester
  13. Richie the Rally Goat
    I'm amazed too, but I think he'll only gain 14 days of service time, assuming DSan comes right back. He was a September call up, so the clock is already ticking.
  14. Richie the Rally Goat
    i saw D-San to the DL before knowing his replacement and just assumed it was Beresford. I was shocked and a bit excited that Kepler is coming up. I hope he can make the most of it.
  15. Richie the Rally Goat
    The 2015 season Molitor fell in love with Danny Santana who was terrible, but stuck by him until almost August. So no, not two games, 95 games. Not exactly statistically significant sample size, but big enough to see the similarities
  16. Richie the Rally Goat
    Indeed it is! Extra frustrating when TR points that out last November and then does nothing! Molli's usage of the bullpen has been just as aggravating. Bullpen is an issue, but less so than the hitting. Tough to win many games when your scoring 2.5 runs per game
  17. Richie the Rally Goat
    doesnt this speak to Chief's points regarding Sano and the bench? If you need runs, play the best hitters you got! This team is built for solo home runs. If by some freak accident you have someone on base, they can be two run home runs.
  18. Richie the Rally Goat
    the phrase is "hoser"
  19. Richie the Rally Goat
    oh yeah! They had a hit in the 70s! Polka! Polka! Polka!
  20. Richie the Rally Goat
    really I do agree w/ Chi, it'll be fun and great scenery
  21. Richie the Rally Goat
    are you trying to make this the longest road trip in the shortest miles in road trip history?
  22. Richie the Rally Goat
    my uncle wouldn't do that for me. You're a nice guy!
  23. Richie the Rally Goat
    car rental or tow your own car back?
  24. Richie the Rally Goat
    why put yourself through that?
  25. Richie the Rally Goat
    yeah, and it's a weak bullpen to begin with. Maybe Meyer or Burdi gets called up quicker than we thought
