    I don't care what some stupid metrics say, Sano is not a better defensive 3rd baseman that Plouffe. I'm sure the "metrics" didn't take into account the time he actually ran away from a freaking pop up.

    Meh, Fien hasn't been that good for the Dodgers. Not sure which Guerra you are referencing. Yes Nolaco has been better with the Angels. Lets see if it carries over to next year.

    Allen probably needs to go, but it's tough to make a silk purse out of a sow's ear.

    Meh, time to move on. The article says he has a OPS of .786 during the first 25 pitches. That's no great shakes. Dude can't even hold a runner at first.
  5. adorduan
    This. If he hits his spots with his fastball, about 90% of his problems go away. He's getting into hitters counts way to often because he can't throw his fastball for a strike.

    One thing I've noticed is that when a teammate hits a homerun or makes a great play and comes in the dugout, he seems genuinely thrilled for that player and the reverse seems to be true too. Just a guess but I bet he is well liked and respected by almost all his teammates.
  7. adorduan
    He's had 233 total at bats, 65 since the all star break.. 40% of his at bats came in May. that's hardly "most" days.

    Why people are so invested in a lack of criticism of Danny Santana is beyond me. He the 25th player on the roster. Buxton, Berrios and Sano are a thousand times more important to the team going forward. And all the hand wringing after we traded Arcia for a bag of balls, OMG, he's going to go to another team and flourish blah, blah, blah... he's on his 3rd team in 10 days.
  9. adorduan
    No, but what is annoying, for example this thread, is that the players are totally blameless. Example A: Sano is treated like a freaking GOD around here. Not one speck of criticism allowed! the guy might not have a great work ethic? Impossible!! He's the greatest thing the ever pull on a Twins uniform.

    meh, I'm ready to move on from Tonkin. The strikeouts are nice but he doesn't do anything else well. too many HR's allowed, can't hold a runner worth a crap. Seems to let tons of inherited runners score.
  11. adorduan
    I just wish we didn't have to "fix" 75% of our so called top prospects.
  12. adorduan
    Depends which job you are talking about. DH, nothing, 3B, he needs to field the position a hell of a lot better than he did this year. But he won't have to earn the 3B job, they will hand it to him hope he goes from awful to below average in the field.
  13. adorduan
    C'mon nobody hates Buxton. Heck, I think almost all of us hope he turns out to be a great player. But there are more people beginning to question if he's going to even come close to that.
  14. adorduan
    Well, that will be pretty disappointing if he turns into Carlos Gomez. Having a couple very good/great years and getting DFA'ed at the age of 30.
  15. adorduan
    Maybe he just isn't as good as everyone hyped him up to be.
  16. adorduan
    If that's all they ever turn out to be, it doesn't really matter. 1.5 WAR over a career is nothing.
  17. adorduan
    From your link: painfully slow in between pitches; struggles to stay in rhythm; prone to long innings sounds like Pelfrey!
  18. adorduan
    Sano is pretty bad. You can't keep dropping easy pop ups.
  19. adorduan
    yeah, a 1.000 OPS is reasonable expectation for him.
  20. adorduan
    Buxton will probably develop slowly, we waste a bunch of team controlled years, he'll get good for about 2 years and then he leaves. It's the Twins way.
  21. adorduan
    Until he shows he has learned to take a walk, he shouldn't be back up. It's as simple as that.
  22. adorduan
    If he is struggling 3 years from now, he IS a bust.
  23. adorduan
    Danny Santana seems like he is getting to be a decent bunter. He's about the only one though.
  24. adorduan
    What the hell has D Santana done wrong to earn your scorn?
  25. adorduan
    So if it's not focus and effort, what is it?
