    Baseball players aren't heroes.

    I think you can't use technology, I think that's the rule here.

    Edit to the above stats*: blyleven as a Twin: 55.7 fWAR Kaat: 53.3 Killibrew: 66.3 Carew as a Twin: 56.9 Mauer: 48 *includes Senators time, but I left off the all time leader, who was never a Twin....
  4. Mike Sixel
    and yet, look at his fWAR just as a Twin compared to Mauer's.....
  5. Mike Sixel
    Carew put up 57 fWAR as a Twin, in less years than Mauer has played in MN....and Mauer is 9 fWAR behind right now. Killibrew put up 66. btw, JUST AS A TWIN, Blyleven put up 50.4 fWAR! He had a 10.8 fWAR season! I think Kaat put up around 50 fWAR as a Twins also

    David Ortiz played 1 year here, as did Thome? But I get your general point....

    I like the stats, and ignoring baserunning to determine best Twin ever..... It's Carew, and it's not close, IMO. Followed by Killibrew. Then a huge gap. ****I'm looking at full careers, not just as Twins. ******None of that takes away from Mauer as one of the great players in their history, btw....as for his defense, I think we read a lot about his inability to get the low strike relative to some other catchers.

    Nunez.....

    I certainly agree that if he was RH, he might be up right now. And I agree, we don't know, I just have my doubts.
  10. Mike Sixel
    Well, I did say "agreement", I'm assuming that means some amount of money. He might also want to be in the US, who knows?

    I know* that Eric L on Fangraphs has said that if people think Badoo's power is legit, he'll make some top 100 lists, or just miss. *or maybe KLAW, or someone else on FG, but I think it was Eric

    "let stuff go" was about going with live broadcasts and not worrying about a swear word sneaking in, not about the Red Sox cheating. I hope that's clear now. Cheating is wrong.

    TJ 10:22 Scouts don't get excited by his stuff, and wins don't matter, but isn't Zach Littell going 19-1 in the minors interesting? For a guy who has been traded twice in a year? Jeff Sullivan 10:22 I'm afraid not 10:23 Stranger: Littell has started seven games in Double-A with the Yankees, and seven games in Double-A with the Twins. His K-BB% has gone from 25% to 9% I don't know what the Twins have done to him, but it's not great http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/jeff-sullivan-fangraphs-chat-9817/

    I hate the delay on radio and tv. Makes it nigh on impossible to listen to the radio and watch the tv. We just need to grow up as a society and let stuff go live. /soapbox
  15. Mike Sixel
    there are stats that do this already, w/o trying to parse out the earned runs....
  16. Mike Sixel
    D+ for 3 WAR in an injury year? Tough grader. I assume Murphy gets a J or K then?
  17. Mike Sixel
    I just don't think Palka is a hitter at the MLB level, so I'm not sure I agree. I wouldn't be surprised if Park and the Twins came to an agreement to let him go back after this year, if he wants.
  18. Mike Sixel
    I too prefer Escobar over Adrianza, or Goodrum.
  19. Mike Sixel
    well, I got the not traded part right.....
  20. Mike Sixel
    Ditto on the game write ups! thanks.
  21. Mike Sixel
    Hey. I tried pizza, fires, and music..... And now to eat dinner soon....
  22. Mike Sixel
    In honor of the relaunch of MTV unplugged, I am streaming the scorpions' performance. Highs and lows for sure....
  23. Mike Sixel
    There seems to be an obsession...
  24. Mike Sixel
    Has Mauer scored from first all year? Didn't this recently happen?
  25. Mike Sixel
    I was entertained.....still not sure why.
