  1. 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.
  2. Until he shows he has learned to take a walk, he shouldn't be back up. It's as simple as that.
  3. All we can do is read the glowing prospect reports guys like you post and then watch the results not match up. Hopefully he will be better next time (he could hardly be worse).
  4. Still thinking the same thing? Obviously the Red Sox loved his fastball, they hit line drives all over when he accidentally threw a strike..
  5. If May can't locate is fastball, he's not going to do any better as a starter than he did as a reliever.
  6. Not that I wish injury to any player, but if Hughes goes on the DL maybe Chargois will get called up.
  7. They should make is so that if a reliever comes in with, say a man on first and he lets that runner score, he gets charges with .75 of a run. If the man is on second, .5 and so on.
  8. Maybe we call call up Ron Davis and see what he's up to.
  9. /But, but his K/9 rate is 13.5. Strikeouts are everything for a reliever, everyone on this board says so. /sarcasm off
  10. If he is struggling 3 years from now, he IS a bust.
  11. I know this doesn't solve any of the Twins problems but I thought I'd throw some numbers out there to show that other teams have some problems too. Danny Santana has a a higher OPS .645 than: Matt Duffy .629 Jason Heyward .611 Justin Upton .589 Mark Teixeira .578 Prince Fielder .562 Kendrys Morales .567 Not to mention the contracts of most of those guys. 1st basemen with big contracts Mauer OPS .728 Pujols OPS .704 Votto OPS .697 Ricky Nolasco's FIP 3.87 is better than: Felix Hernandez 4.05 Max Sherzer 4.25 Cole Hamels 4.44 Sonny Gray 5.21 Adam Wainwright 4.10 Justin Verlander 4.01 Dallas Keuchel 4.04
  12. Arcia is out of options.
  13. Danny Santana seems like he is getting to be a decent bunter. He's about the only one though.
  14. And walking guys, and giving up home runs.....
  15. So what? He had control problems in spring training, he had control problems in AAA and he had control problems in the majors. He needs to get that figured out.
  16. A crappy game, or a bunch of crappy games? If getting sent down breaks them, they were never gonna make it.
  17. I don't get your win percentage.
  18. What the hell has D Santana done wrong to earn your scorn?
  19. Why does Buxton get to come back mid season?? I thought you said no scholarships for ANYBODY?
  20. It's up to 53% now. Look, he needs to go down, the sooner the better. He doesn't have a clue up there, he's just guessing. I don't care how good he is in the field, you can't have that kind of black whole in an offense that's struggling.
  21. I'm sceptical of him even being MLB average at 3rd.
  22. Unfortunately, Buxton doesn't have a consistency issue, he's been consistently bad.
  23. Pitchers are pitching him away and he's still trying to pull the ball most of the time.
  24. Sano sure as hell isn't the best hitter on the team at this point.
  25. So if it's not focus and effort, what is it?
