  1. with all due respect, where is this magic unicorn site that calls Sano an average outfielder? When you consider that the Twins have played 1 and 2 run games, every play makes a difference. Every out and base makes a difference. Sano really looks like he is struggling out there. You could just as plausibly say that with someone besides Sano in right, the Twins might have 2 wins right now. I'm not sure about the evidence he will improve over time, though it makes sense. But then wouldn't it make sense he would improve over time if he was at 3B too?
  2. There is some truth to this. I admit I wasn't thinking of Santana's experience in CF. Though I think if Buxton needed a couple days off you might see Rosario out there. Otherwise I still feel Nunez and Santana bring similar skills, though at different stages in their career. They are most similar to each other even if you include Arcia (lefty bat and experienced 4th outfielder) and Quentin (very good right hand bench bat) to make it a group of four. We can disagree.
  3. *hesitates* Well, to make the best use of a top farm system, there will need to be a path for the younger guys to reach the majors. Ryan will need to be a little more proactive in moving guys while they have value. Ideally trading them while they have value. My gut tells me the Hicks trade will work out. Even without Hicks, the path for Kepler is unclear. Does that answer your question?
  4. There is nothing wrong with putting a guy on waivers. Nunez and Santana are redundant. They both have essentially the same skills and are average at best at those skills. The Twins decided to keep both anyway. At least Quentin would have brought something a little different than those two.
  5. I'm not sure what you mean by that, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.
  6. If Arcia pinch hits, it will ironically be for Murphy most likely. Losing our catcher!!!
  7. Yeah the Orioles were somehow not surprised a steal was coming.
  8. Well Molitor just pulled him out of the game for whatever reason.
  9. Or didn't do anything for it, on purpose.
  10. Yep time is running out on the season for him.
  11. If I were making spaghetti pie.....the spaghetti would never get to the pie.
  12. Done. Just sent them a text.
  13. Wouldn't Carlos Quentin have come in handy last night?
  14. Molitor uses the bench so little that his bench players rarely ever get in the game. That's my perception, anyway. The irony is if the Twins have bench players who rarely play, one of them might as well be a third catcher who never actually plays, for the times when you need to hit for Suzuki and then be "out of catchers" after you put your backup catcher in the game.
  15. yeah he had a torrid second half of spring training. I'd like to see Santana get some ABs immediately but don't know where they would come from.
  16. Good to know. And he should be benched for it.
  17. Gibson had a rough April last season too.
  18. Instead if sacrificing Dozier's at bat, why didn't the just let Buxton advance on whatever out Dozier might have made? Or was Molitor that concerned about Dozier striking out in that situation? Confused.
