  1. MN doesn't have a pitcher? I agree, it is unlikely Bernie or Hilary could pitch, but at least they should try.
  2. Smalley, mouthpiece for the Twins, says what the Twins FO says, news at 11.
  3. I think he's an elite prospect that doesn't need to be babied. EVERY other elite prospect from this year's lists is up, and playing. Is every other team wrong, or is Buxton just not that good? I accept that they can keep him down for service reasons, I don't have to like it as a fan.
  4. Ya, heaven forbid you get excited when doing something well.......
  5. Oh boy, another chance to talk about how admiring a HR is somehow disrespectful to the other team and the game...... Twins lost because they aren't as good as the Jays, no complex analysis needed, imo.
  6. Really, you think service time will have zero influence on that, despite what we see all over MLB?
  7. Yipeee. Very important not to put your best players on the field. Always play for the future, that's what I say.
  8. The more I think about it, the more I hate this take. The REAL downside is he's not on the field producing, and now there is a tiny chance they'll start him in AAA next year. That's the real downside, imo.
  9. I'm with SD Buhr......if you are worried about options on Buxton, this team is in BIG trouble. If they are so worried about 2020 and beyond that they don't put on him on the roster day 1 next year, well, why would anyone buy a ticket from these guys. Try to win, please.
  10. Ya, I only follow KLAW and Mearls on Twitter, not my thing mostly....... and ya, we probably agree here
  11. Fair. And no, I never listen to sports press conferences. It was a tweet posted in the game thread. Heck, I hardly watch/listen to sports at all anymore. so many more fun things to DO. My point on May is that if THEY think it is jerking a long term starter around to put him in the bullpen.....are they trying to tell us they are moving May to the bullpen? Because, ugh.
  12. That's not what Antony said. He said he's a starter long term for this team. It's not just the Cards.......it is baseball. Also, if that is true about Duffey, what does it say about how they are using May?
  13. I agree, doesn't make it right that he won't get cut, but I agree. They'll basically be playing with below replacement level at 1B for the foreseeable future.
  14. antony says Duffey is a big part of their future, and they don't want to jerk him around by putting him in the pen..... Gibson Hughes Santana Milone Nolasco Berrios May Rogers Oh, and other organizations bring up starters all the time and get their feet wet in the bullpen . I mean, it clearly destroys every Cards pitcher ever.....
  15. Keeping Boyer and Duensing is strengthening the bullpen?
  16. Nine relievers. Nine. And two or three of them are awful. Wow. Just. Wow.
  17. Cut Mauer. That's my solution.
  18. Trevor May.....low leverage specialist. I would ask for a trade at this point.
  19. not sure what he can tell them, Toronto is better, built largely on trades and FA.....but, we all know that will never work.
  20. Odds a reporter follow up, and asks what it means about May? Better, worse, than the Twins chances tonight?
  21. If Molitor and his decisions don't matter, why bother paying him so much money, and agonizing and bragging about your manager? His job is to do the stuff behind the scenes, and the tactics in game. If we can't judge him on his in game decisions, I don't know what we can ever talk about about a manager.
  22. good golly, luckily for the Cards, Royals, Giants, and Dodgers fans, they don't agree with this philosophy. And yes, wth does it say about May?
