  1. 40 innings a year, of which maybe half are really high leverage, or 180 innings a year......is this really a debate?
  2. Alas, it is true. Who gave Hunter that clause?
  3. So it will be one start? And whose fault is it May isn't stretched out? Always an excuse for a bad decision.
  4. You mean, who should TR try to trade as a waiver guy? Pelfrey, Hunter, Mauer.
  5. I would cut Mauer and move Sano to first. Problem solved.
  6. I was talking in general. When has this press ever questioned Ryan seriously? He is some kind of idol to them.
  7. There are no SS or C in FA.......so you are counting on him to trade prized prospects......get ready for disappointment.
  8. Every time the Twins make a bad decision, there is an excuse. Never the right time to trade. May should be in the bullpen. Suzuki should be signed .........how about just admitting they are wrong sometimes. How about the press, press the Twins, instead of being their PR arm?
  9. Any of want to bet? I say under 82 wins. And, the insider article on ESPN was not complimentary.
  10. If only Duffey had been available to come up before.......and pitch either out of the pen or rotation. Not that anyone suggested that........ Baffled how they are treating May here. Where are all the people that said this was temporary?
  11. Should have traded him, if you aren't trying to win. He is a good RP.....
  12. Why now? What changed that is different than a month ago?
  13. The article praised them for not trading for a catcher or short stop.......i assume trading for one next year would therefore be a mistake. Ergo my question, how do they fix those next year? I don't consider Grantland and ESPN the same, but fair. My point was that not everyone agrees it was a good deadline. Nothing more or less.
  14. And, how do you propose fixing catcher or short stop next year, if you are not allowed to trade?
  15. So they still are keeping the entire bullpen around? Explain?
  16. If Pelfrey has no value, why is he starting on a team that has May and Berrios available?
  17. Terry Ryan is never making a big trade to acquire talent in July. Can we add that to the list yet, after 17 years?
  18. I am more likely to say yes now. This acquisition isn't moving the needle. Once again, a team in the playoff hunt is not offered meaningful help by this GM. Also, saying he'd do Ramos for Capps again (which I somehow missed before)? Really?
  19. In fairness, only Toronto with their low Canadian tax rates and awesome exchange rate could afford to sign the best catcher this off season......And only Toronto could acquire a top 3 guy at his position for multiple years of team control in back to back years (3B and SS). I mean, only they could have done that. Really. That other stuff they did? No way the Twins had the assets to do that.
  20. Except for that end part where he says it seems like a good get for the Rays, and that Hu is probably undervalued in the author's opinion, sure, it sounds great.
  21. Maybe Santana should go to AAA to make room for Jepsen? Or, do they really need this many infielders?
  22. May hasn't been used in a high leverage situation at all. did someone say that was changing? Because, he's not being used that way at all.
  23. good googly moogly. Ya, I'm losing confidence in him more and more.
  24. doesn't that imply boyer stays? ?????????
