  1. And they dont trade Willingham, Perkins, or Dozier, or Santana. Just so unlucky, for five years now.
  2. Normalize to what? Mediocre?
  3. This year is lost. Hard to see them competing next year. So, what two years where they are both here, and maybe the team is good?
  4. And he wasn't good last year compared to first basemen. Age and injuries and possibly a lack of willingness to change as he ages appear to have caught up with him
  5. I just can't see wottying about that with a pitcher. And Sano isn't here much longer. They need Berrios to be good soon, not in four years
  6. And it won't matter, because they have no pitching.
  7. If the Twins ever get out of this inning, Vargas better get at least one at bat
  8. It should be fairly obvious I don't care about this year. As you have said, there is no depth at pitcher... But there appear to be enough middle infielders.
  9. Jonron. That's about as much enthusiasm as they deserve......
  10. Good thing they still have Dozier and didn't trade him for pitching.
  11. Didn't someone just tell me to wait until June?
  12. Don't worry, they won't have thirteen pitchers for long. Don't worry, the bullpen won't be old guys with no future for long. Don't worry, this is temporary..... Pretty sure I've been reading this for four plus years now.
  13. Why doe Chargois need more time? If he's healthy, he can pitch here. Someday that elusive future where they put the best players on the field will happen. But, apparently, still not this month.
  14. always my fear with Burdi at this point. Heck, I might call him up now, just to get a few months out of him. Which sounds cold, because he is a human being, but I actually mean it in a good way. I think he's legit, and want him to get his day.
  15. blue means complete. If stop lights had blue, wouldn't you be there, and not care?
  16. Not only is no hitter worthy, other than Palka and Garver (who, imo, would be limited by position in impact), I'm not sure there is a hitter that even profiles as a good prospect who is in AAA or AA that we could reasonably expect to see this year. Gordon is in AA for the first time, and they'll want to limit his service time, I'd guess. Vielma maybe, but why would he come up if Dozier isn't traded, and is he really a good prospect? Really, there is a serious lack of non-pitchers anywhere near the majors right now.
  17. And she's right. I'd add the everglades and dry tortugas to any FL trip. since we still haven't made those two parks. And, you are probably correct, it would likely disappoint.
  18. I'm guessing Whities or Astros at this point.
  19. Especially given the year long injuries to two of their best...
  20. 2-D 9:54 Should Jose Berrios be in the Twins' rotation right now? Jeff Sullivan 9:55 That depends entirely on their internal evaluation -- they have their reasons for his being in Triple-A, and they have things they're looking for. If and when they're satisfied, it shouldn't be hard for him to step in for Mejia
  21. See, I don't think they are trilogies. I think they are one story, not 3 stories. Indeed, Tolkien said that about LotR, it was one long book, published as three. I'd argue these are more part of a LONG story, and we are just seeing chapters. That might not be ideal for closure in any one movie, but I think it is great for what I hope to see for the next decade. On another topic, last night I asked my wife if it be weird if I went to the new Star Wars World at Disney when it opens, without kids, as a 50 some year old. Her reply "won't that be most of the people?".....
  22. CaptainPeanutbutter 9:49 Dansby Swanson and Byron Buxton are tied for worst position player's at this point with -0.6. How surprising is this? Which surprised you more? And which do you think will end the season higher? Jeff Sullivan 9:50 Swanson is definitely the bigger surprise. We've seen Buxton do this before. Because of that, I think Swanson has the better chance of finishing higher. Buxton just seems lost. Swanson seems like he's struggling for the first time
  23. LOL, literally. I used to be an IT guy.....
