  1. Heck, next year Trea Turner could be their starting SS.......
  2. and, that is why I don't bet on sports stuff......so much for my "big money".....
  3. Or maybe the Twins plan to call up Sano today! A guy can dream.....
  4. Kepler is in the Futures game.....I'd guess he would not come up before that honor, or they wouldn't have allowed him to be added.
  5. I don't know if they literally mean "gene".......I really don't think they mean it literally.....
  6. I'd also call up a hitter, not a pitcher (given the upcoming schedule, and that it is only 1 move). I'd think that hitter would be a catcher or a SS/INF type.
  7. I will say this.....Fangraphs has some of the same issues. A big honking national site with a huge budget.....
  8. Just glancing at FG.......there is also a delta in base running, but I think that is a small component. the delta on offense is dramatic (as it is on defense). If you just want to think about offense, and ignore defense and positional value (which is a big part of the defensive adjustment)......Fielder is way up there. if you think playing a position where you also can save runs has value, and if you think playing a harder position has even more value, then you have to weight in defense some.....how much, I agree, is debatable.
  9. I'd put money on any veteran over any rookie.......big money.
  10. At work, I have NO CONTROL over settings...
  11. btw, those numbers are bad, but better than some others....... gotta be a RP, right?
  12. Genius on their part, I say. You now have looked..... those and the ones that cover half the comments on mobile devices.
  13. Probably because it was in the last super duper extended HD version recently released for only $200 per movie.......along with 10 versions of the "Han shot first, or not" scene.....
  14. To me, they beat Sale......and scored a lot. Shows the power of stringing hits together overly randomly distributing them.....
  15. I don't care if he finishes the game at all. What I don't get is why not use Duensing there, I mean, if he's on the roster......
  16. No issue, it's just that there are so many players. I feel the same about the gameday reports, for the lowest levels also. Not an issue, just a request. thanks,
  17. He's 25 and a pitcher, service time is no longer relevant.
  18. Hughes, Gibson, Pelfrey, Santana, May, Nolasco, Milone are all in front of him. Berrios might be in front of him. In a year or 2, more will be him or better. When will he provide value as a starter, in all likelihood? At best, he'll be a 5th/spot starter the next few years (or, they are in REAL trouble if he is a top 3 starter for this team, that means a lot of the above are bad or hurt). His value to THIS team, is either as trade bait, or a RP.
  19. I was pretty sure "he's a lefty, Buxton should be fine" was not a good thought.....
  20. Is it mean to suggest we post what position some of these lower level guys are?
  21. This is such overly simple thinking, it hurts my brain to use it that little.....
  22. Tuba....you including those that used greenies in the 50s-70s? Or spitballers? Or bat corkers? Many PED users did so when, you know, there were no rules against it. And yes, imo, betting on the game is about 1000000000x worse. YMMV, of course.
  23. So, Vargas threw to 2nd to get an out.....think Mauer noticed that from the bench?
