    Antony might not be THE issue, but his decisions are a symptom of the larger issue of managerial depth. The team was destroyed during Bill Smith's tenure after taking over for TR. Smith that bad, or Smith that unprepared and an organization that unable to build management from within? TR comes back, makes great minor league depth moves but the major league team sucks. TR takes a leave of absence to treat cancer. Rob Antony takes over, the major league roster is worse yet, and they've managed to lose prospects for over the hill relievers, and lose position player depth at the position they are trying to build upon. TR has the ability to effectively manage the roster, but RA seems to be making decisions on an island, and that island is becoming populated by pitchers and catchers, and doesn't have enough other species to keep the island from becoming too inbred. Is Antony incompetent? Or is the organization unable to build the required managerial talent, or support? If Gardy is the only source of support, the bigger picture gets lost.

    If were Rob Antony/TR I would wait for Sam-wise Gamgez to be a free agent and bid, and I'd do the 6/100. If I were GM of a team who was a World Series contender with a pitcher injury, then I'd trade for Jeff Samsomething, but I wouldn't give up too much for a half season rental.

    I think it was more Escobar's competence and Nunez's health. Santana will get to play a lot until the bench comes back together, but he'll be sent down to AAA for more seasoning. He's too valuable to the future to risk, and not yet ready for the bigs, despite SSS good hitting and fielding. i too am glad he's still up. I hope he can continue to make his case that the future begins now, and he IS ready.

    Really? You've been benched, there are two other SS on the roster, and you have terrible numbers and you're surprised about being demoted?

    Do you remember when the NW flight missed the MSP airport by 100 miles? There was serious calls for firings and rightfully so. while Twins baseball isn't life and death, it's far more egregious of mistakes being made.
  6. Richie the Rally Goat
    Fryer?
  7. Richie the Rally Goat
    Arcia and Hicks to come up?
  8. Richie the Rally Goat
    Per Gardy Presser: Hermann and Florimon both optioned, corresponding roster moves tomorrow.
  9. Richie the Rally Goat
    I could not agree more. Who goes into a season with 1 CF in Triple A and 1 CF in MLB and not one 4th outfielder between the two?
  10. Richie the Rally Goat
    Agreed on the Darnell part, then we diverge. I don't care if a Guerrier is ok, this roster is in shambles and they gave up a prospect (albeit low ceiling guy) to bring up a 35 year old who won't get better over time.
  11. Richie the Rally Goat
    What could go wrong?
  12. Richie the Rally Goat
    A snorted hard on that, my wife has made me watch too many of those crappy movies. 1 is too many, but unfortunately its been a lot more.
  13. Richie the Rally Goat
    And the shared husband was abusive to both women
  14. Richie the Rally Goat
    And Dick might be a little tipsy himself, he's been messing up Escobar, Santana, and Nunez all game
  15. Richie the Rally Goat
    Funny stuff
  16. Richie the Rally Goat
    Man Hermann sucks
  17. Richie the Rally Goat
    Has your wife been sending these lists to mine? De Ja Vu
  18. Richie the Rally Goat
    Nice catch Santana
  19. Richie the Rally Goat
    Hey! This new pitcher for the Twins looks familiar!
  20. Richie the Rally Goat
    But effective against my favorite team
  21. Richie the Rally Goat
    Scott Atchinson looks terrible for being 38
  22. Richie the Rally Goat
    One of the reports stated Kubel has been requiring heavy leg stretching by the trainers before every game. It must be working
  23. Richie the Rally Goat
    How about that Danny Santana?
  24. Richie the Rally Goat
