  1. I'd put Milone in the bullpen when Santana is back, and cut Duensing. People type week after week that Duesning will be gone soon, and no matter how bad the performance, he's not yet...... What I think will happen......some more promotions, but slowly trickling up here. From what they say, they didn't even want to promote Buxton at this point, not sure why we would expect anyone else to come up, other than maybe a RP (barring injuries, of course).
  2. They have specifically told him to lay off low pitchers, even if they might be strikes, for now. Maybe the pitchers know that, and are attacking him there?
  3. why do people care all the much what other people say about the Twins or Buxton? I mean, if we are here talking, let's talk......but why does anyone care if the national media likes the Twins, or other fans do, or any of that stuff? I don't get it..... Expecting greatness is a mistake......because greatness rarely happens. But, I wouldn't be surprised by eventual greatness.
  4. Stupid auto correct......that should have been AAA.
  5. Still not sure anyone is giving up on him, but he is not currently a MLB hitter. Rosario is hitting better, Buxton is here......you want Hicks on the bench half the time, or in AS A when he is healthy?
  6. Didn't they say they only called him up due to a shortage of options? I don't see much changing soon this year. Heck, Duensing is on the roster......do we really think much has changed yet this year?
  7. Not going to worry unless it looks like this next year. He was super raw.
  8. Hate that he is batting ninth. But at least he s up.
  9. Right, the book is not done yet, but we should not ignore the chapters already written. Remember, a lot of teams thought he was a pitcher in the draft.......
  10. Fair enough, I missed that. I would not do that.
  11. Yessssssss
  12. John, I don't understand the history part. Of course his awful history of hitting is being taken into account, as it should.
  13. Who here has said trade the top prospects? Who here has said gut the farm? Who here has even implied that?
  14. Like Stauffer and Duensing being on the roster? Or last year's debacle? They are not questionable at this point? The Cubs seem to be getting better much faster. The Astros took a completely different approach. Were those unreasonable?
  15. Uh, the Cardinals absolutely traded for help. I am all for promoting players. Sano and Buxton are the only top ten prospects that were hitters not promoted this year......... Here are the players the farm has promoted to the majors for the first time this year
  16. Nine ERA.......not the best stat, but come on.
  17. It 100% has been the theme.
  18. Come on Terry, show some respect to the fans and move on. Does Ryan actually think this guy can pitch?
  19. Regardless of the defense, he can't hit MLB pitching.
  20. People are saying wait unto 2018........
  21. Why? Why should a fan keep paying for crappy teams? Why should a fan be patient? Why should we tolerate being bad for decades? You can choose to be that way, why should I?
  22. A rebuilding should not take seven years to even be good. If they lose 90 again........so when do they actually try to be good. When is this mythical future?
  23. Agreed. I don't get all the posts saying he is showing he is good. He cannot hit.
  24. When do we get to play for the present? Last year and the year before you said next year. We are two years into next year. If they do deal and struggle, next year you will say they were not good last year, so wait another year. Buxton should be up .Waiting for the ASG or minor league pllayoffs is just saying that he MLB team is not important.
