  1. so, he has to play 3B, to show he can play 3B? How many games would you want to see him play, before deciding if he should keep playing?
  2. I'd say esports, but we are only scratching the surface on a person's ability to sit and play a game for days w/o rest, all while getting paid.....
  3. Well, you have to add the wheat. You don't start with the world connected to you...
  4. You just made my eyes bleed....
  5. You look like him too* *ya, I know...
  6. good luck with that last part, unless you are willing to punt hitting at all....
  7. I've never once seen one FB post like those you mention, like I said, there is wheat to be found.... I highly recommend Humans of New York (which, you can get on a web site). Their recent work with PTSD and refugees is amazing stuff. Their older stuff where it is just stories is great also.
  8. Well, stop putting Grossman in the OF, stop putting DanSan anywhere more than as a late inning guy (if he's on the team at all).....hope Buxton can hit by mid-year....put Sano at DH, put Polanco at 3B....wait for a SS to come up, the D could be ok to good then, which would be a massive improvement.
  9. the argument being made was.....we can't judge the Twins because they chose HSer, not collegians. Well, that was their choice. Would you like to bet Turner vs Gordon right now?
  10. There goes TD, was nice knowing you all....
  11. Baseball barely requires any stamina at all......
  12. jham really making his / her point!
  13. And stamina.....
  14. Most teams use around 8-10 starters during the year. Hughes won't return, imo. Santiago won't be back, imo. Even if I'm wrong.... I don't get why you predict we won't see a guy who is doing well (dominating?) in AA this year, in the majors next year.
  15. I agree, Twitter and FB are only as useful as your ability to filter out the chaff....
  16. Well, the Twins have, um, uh, no, no they don't (well, Buxton, I guess, but he can't hit at all). Twins are 2nd to last in DRS.....with Buxton playing quite a bit.
  17. I would, but the Twins didn't call up Rogers or Berrios last year....now, maybe they knew Berrois wasn't ready, but Rogers is showing he could have been, at worst, a LOOGY.
  18. this whole meme that the Cubs are only good because they have money and can ignore pitching in the draft is old. really. old. the Twins could have taken the money spent on three FAs, and bought one great one.....would you rather have a great one, or Hughes, Santana, and Nolasco right now? It is a matter of resource allocation. And, the Twins chose to choose HS guys....what if they had taken Trea Turner instead of Gordon? Same position, same draft, one is in the majors, one is not.
  19. What does Sano have to do at this point to earn a job? You know, besides be one of the better hitters in baseball?
  20. Uh, what? No way he should be up this year, unless it is after September, and they seriously believe he's a candidate for the rotation to start next year, which probably almost no one does.
  21. I would not be opposed to moving Sano to DH......but if you tender Plouffe, he's probably on the roster, meaning you probably lose Vargas, I'd guess. Not sure what either Plouffe or Vargas bring back in a trade....
  22. I use Twitter to follow AP News, to see if there is a headline I want to read. Oh, and to follow KLAW and beergraphs...that's about it.
  23. I think Plouffe is different: Mauer, Sano, Vargas, Park, Polanco, Dozier, Escobar, Plouffe.....even taking off Park...that's a lot of bodies. If you keep Plouffe, what do you do with Sano?
  24. there are people all over the site saying to literally just let Gibson walk. That, imo, is insane.
  25. If you move across the country, FB is about the only way to stay in touch....
