  1. Agree with all of the above. I was about to say that the relief pitchers should be promoted, because even if guys like Chargois don't work out right away, one of Ryan's strengths is finding good free-agent bullpen arms.
  2. That's how I read it too, and I bet Pohlad is already regretting he did this.
  3. I hope Antony's staying at a Holiday Inn last night!
  4. Wait... if we have a new GM, shouldn't Berrios have been called back up by now?
  5. I was thinking first inning challenges to gush about, but same diff.
  6. The walk rates in AAA surprises me also. Another idea would be that some career minor league batters have such trouble at the plate that they might not want to swing at all sometimes. Or umpiring. Or maybe there is a Pacific Coast league bias with hitter-friendly ball parks where pitchers might be reluctant to throw strikes. All just guesses. It is interesting.
  7. Go to Fangraphs. Even with last night's game in the books, Sano is outperforming Plouffe at third by a wide margin-- or a better way to say it would be that Plouffe is really underperforming this year. But we've seen enough of Plouffe to know that even before his injury he is getting worse at making plays to his right, and that's Sano's best play. A show of confidence in Sano full time as third baseman for the next couple seasons will be the best thing the Twins can do. The worst thing the Twins can do is try to juggle this for another season. Just my opinion, of course.
  8. Twins doing in the 8th what they almost did in the 3rd - thanks yall
  9. It's always good to have that insurance player on your roster
  10. If you are talking about the Twins Daily company, I will retire the joke
  11. Did Dick say if Ryan was going to answer his phone and listen, or would he just listen to the offers when it rolled to voicemail?
  12. Dick: Terry Ryan promises to be active in July before the trade deadline. He will listen to all offers made. And here all this time I thought "active" had a completely different meaning than that.
  13. Ugh, I tuned in just in time to see that -- two of our best strike zone guys swing and miss at ball fours with the bases loaded and subsequently strike out.
  14. when life gives you e4, give c5 right back /chess
  15. Great base on balls by Grossman but this is where you really want a fast runner on first base
  16. And since the manager is usually closest to the lineup card in the dugout, and could have said something when Braun went up to the on deck circle, the manager apparently forgot that he switched them, too. Great job all around!
  17. E-5 learning curve in progress And then Sano catches a pop up. That's using your head!
