    2:33 Pb&Js: What more does Aaron Hicks have to do to get a full-time gig? 2:33 Dan Szymborski: He had a .644 OPS coming into this season.

    i used to like Dan....

    He can't get bills thru a congress he controls, but he's going to finally bring us Mid East peace.

    Of course maybe they do. No one denies that. I bet the nats wish they had called up Strasburg then, they might have a WS ring. And it didn't help him from getting hurt later, which was the supposed concern. But we are creeping up closely on saying we can't question this, or any, decision.
  8. Mike Sixel
    Well, what do you think of the data they collected on Berrios last year in the majors? Anyone think they thought that was what they'd get last year when they called him up?
  9. Mike Sixel
    Great point. One injury in, and we are already seeing Tepesch.....Ugh. Look, it might or might not be right, but this is disappointing. edit: look one post up....disappointing.

    It's more....I know what Tonkin and Breslow are, and the Twins' scouts have, imo, struggled with knowing when/if guys are ready. I want MLB data this year, so that next year, when they might be legit, they have guys they trust and guys they have data on. I would prefer that process start. IMO, having a bullpen full of guys w/o options makes it really hard to manage a MLB bullpen.

    I am ready for Melo now, and for Tonkin and Breslow to be gone. As long as the manager will trust him. I am ready for Berrios now. I have said all along, I'd want Garver here by June if he's hitting. I want him to be MLB ready next year, when they might be legit competing. If he's a rookie next year, that's not so good. I would think it likely that Burdi will be as good as most of the RP here, by June also. Other than that? Once their AAA OF is healthy, I'd like DanSan gone, but anyone holding their breath on that is insane at this point.

    we are still weeks from the draft (and some of these sites just finished their work on the ranking of current minor league players). I am anticipating we'll get more detailed analysis soon.

    fair, but people keep saying "for now", and then next year it will be "for now"....as stated above, the goal posts move very often here. At some point, you gotta call him up.
  15. Mike Sixel
    And? Was it on Twins Daily anyplace? I am glad it was posted here.
  16. Mike Sixel
    On the plus side, one less team the Twins have to bid against to sign Machado .................
  17. Mike Sixel
    such a well reasoned response, am I on the internet still?
  18. Mike Sixel
    Win Twins? 12:25 With the hot starts by Miguel Sano and Ervin Santana (and the lackluster April records of Cleveland and Detroit), can the Twins stick around in the AL central race until the trade deadline? With Berrios pitching well in Triple AAA, should the Twins bring him up and see if he can contribute at the big league level? Cause for cautious optimism? Dave Cameron 12:25 I don't see it. Santana might be a solid pitcher now but that rotation is still not good.
  19. Mike Sixel
    that daily lineup was intact when they came (other than maybe Polanco at SS, but he'd be the backup to Escobar). What did the FO add to what was here?
  20. Mike Sixel
    Garver won't be starting next year either, hopefully. Should he stay down next year also? Admittedly, that's a snarky way to ask the question, but if the argument is he shouldn't come up because he won't play every day, that means we don't see him until 2019 or 2020. And yes, we have no idea how good his defense is.
  21. Mike Sixel
    I just hope he is healthy enough to live a good life outside baseball...
  22. Mike Sixel
    I'm all about pushing prospects, but Palacios is where he needs to be right now.
  23. Mike Sixel
    the snark is strong with this post. I approve.
  24. Mike Sixel
    it was an off hand comment on a message board. flip even.
  25. Mike Sixel
    Uh, EPSN has them 18th in age. Is there a site that is more accurate? And, I'm not interested in weighting by playing time, the players this FO added are the RP and backup catcher types. I am a win now guy when you are on the verge of greatness, otherwise I am totally in teh rebuild camp.
