  1. Well, the one certainty with the Twins is that they ALWAYS "need" pitching....
  2. Smalley for me. SSS for LaTroy, but I like him so far. Hunter and Morris suck.
  3. Well, he might be "overshadowed" by Buxton, but he's also been the better major league player so far also. It wouldn't be crazy that he ends the better player over their careers of the 2.
  4. You can stream the games on MLB.TV anytime, you don't have to watch them live.
  5. Really nice outing. 68% strikes.
  6. I just feel like the wheels could come off at any moment. A 4.35 FIP is nothing to throw a parade for. I guess when the bar is set so low, it's hard not to to exceed it...
  7. Yet plenty run the stat out on this board to defend Buxton.
  8. I'm not getting too excited yet. 5 of the 12 wins were against a bad Royals team.
  9. One my areas of concern coming into the season was the defensive play of the left side of the infield. So far they have far exceeded my expectations. I'm glad to be wrong so far.
  10. While this is fun and all, we've played 3.7% of the season. If we are .500 after 40 games I'll start to get excited.
  11. Yes, Buxton looks lost at the plate, but just a little perspective. 1-16 with 6 K's and 2 walks. Who is that player? Kris Bryant.
  12. Not sure how you would ever lose 2 at bats....
  13. yes, quite a few loud outs
  14. .270/.335/.410 with below average defense, which makes the left side of the infield, with Sano at 3rd, a mess defensively.
  15. There's a lot of hopium in this article.
  16. Huh? Breslow the last 3 years, ERA of 5.96,4.15 and 4.50. WHIP 1.86,1.42 and 1.79. K/9 of 6.1,6.3 and 4.5. OPS against of .887,825 and 869. Admittedly a small sample size for O'Rourke but his first 2 years, ERA 6.14 and 3.96 WHIP 1.41 and 1.12, K/9 of 9.8 and 8.6, OPS against .660 and .615. One is 28 and trending in the right direction and the other is 36 and is trending in the wrong direction. I'll take O'Rourke any day of the week.
  17. .240/.340/.480. too many K's and below average defense. Hope I'm wrong.
  18. Not a fan of keeping Tonkin, IMO he's always going to be more potential than results. Don't know why we had to get Breslow either. O'Rourke can get lefties out.
  19. That "interview" was insane......
  20. Frankly, I think this is all about command of the fastball. If you can consistently hit your spots with even an average fastball, you are going to have some success. Santana's seems to sit at 92-94, which I would say is a little above average. His delivery seems pretty effortless, which is probably a little deceiving also.
  21. Not really thrilled Breslow is in. They better have a short leash with him.
  22. Is anyone else getting a little nervous about Kepler in the outfield? He had some pretty iffy moments last year and a couple this spring.....
