  1. It all depends on the alternatives, and right now, they suck. I hate watching Escobar in LF! And don't get me started on Schafer... If now now Hicks, then when? Might as well roll the dice. At least he can get on base!
  2. i thought that was really weird too. Arcia seemed the obvious PH choice!
  3. plouffe is a good piece to have on a good club, now that his defense has improved
  4. There are two Vavras, plus a coach Vavra? That's a lot of Vavras.
  5. Escobar at DH? This team needs Pinto on it STAT.
  6. Great article. This is exactly the kind of stuff that I wonder about as I'm watching this team struggle.
  7. sadly, i mostly agree with this; the Twins do not seem like an organization that encourages free thinking or diverse outlooks. it'll be a difficult culture to change.
  8. the problem with the business analogy is that making money is kinda different than winning ballgames. baseball is pretty straightforward with who wins and who loses. the team with the most runs wins.
  9. i am cautiously optimistic, i suppose. maybe Sam Fuld 2.0
  10. I love reading these notes and am really excited for the season! I'm OK with starting some of our question mark veterans like Milone and Pelfry (ugh) because if they suck, we can rid ourselves of them right away. This seems to come up every year, though... last year it was Bartlett/Kubel/crap pitcher. What are the odds of an early season trade, though, if it turns out that everyone is decent and May and Meyer are doing well at AAA? Trading much before the deadline doesn't seem like a Ryan thing to do, and I don't want to wait that long.
  11. The Royals did it... the only thing "elite" was their bullpen.
  12. I want to see Trevor May. Tantalizing stretches last year with lots of Ks. He just needs experience. Why are they messing around with retreads?
  13. like how Joe Mauer's laid back personality has kept him from being a valuable baseball player
  14. ...and ever since that day, the Twins' have prided themselves on hiring smart, young talent from outside the organization.
  15. could replace Duensing tomorrow
  16. Where are the young arms? Some of May's starts were quite good, weren't they? Hopefully Nunez isn't long for this team.
  17. The Twins pick 5th or something?
  18. i still remember seeing this live! http://m.twins.mlb.com/news/article/74550646/chris-colabello-gives-mother-unforgettable-birthday-gift
  19. did the Twins officially offer Duensing arbitration?
  20. the role of "Twins pitching coach" is currently being played by a cardboard cutout of Dave Winfield
  21. i had a bad dream about Arcia the other day
  22. no way man. those are my favorite Twins unis.
  23. Would anyone on this board really want Worley back in the Twins' uniform? Not me. Might as well talk about Nishioka turning it around in Japan.
