  1. I think the strain happened on his falling down running to first (or something, just going off what I read in this thread)...... Either way, maybe this is his Wally Pipp moment.....
  2. I don't have anything that tells me Pinto has as much effect on the defense as bad OF defense. YMMV on that. And, they have nothing to do with each other. I can think OF defense matters, and think it is bunk that catching "handling of pitchers" matters.
  3. Looking forward to the NFL draft. One of the few times a year I miss cable tv.
  4. I can't believe you don't have a Stauffer thread...... I don't get to eyeball the games, so I can't comment on the defense, since there is no other way to know.
  5. OF defense does matter, example what number, and still in April........ where are all the "OF defense doesn't matter all that much" people?
  6. As a human, i want them all to succeed, but as a Twins' fan, I don't want him on this roster.
  7. What just happened in the OF? I assume it was some awesome defense? And, please just release Stauffer. I gotta say, at some point, you have to question the FO and their ability to identify talent......or lack of talent.
  8. If it was so easy to find 2-3 WAR players, the Twins wouldn't keep losing 90 games every season, having zero OF, and signing OLD bad RP to deals......getting rid of guys like Plouffe is not a winning strategy* *assuming he's this good
  9. Who, besides Stauffer and his family and his agent and his family, wants this guy on a MLB roster? It looked like a bad idea when they signed him, and it looks more and more like that every day.
  10. I think you are replying to sarcasm.....
  11. that might explain why they keep losing 90 games.
  12. Making decisions on tenure, not production? Awful idea.
  13. He's a politician repressing rights....I have zero sympathy for him. None.
  14. Fair points. I don't really view it as a parade of prospects, others might disagree. I do think looking at guys that came up and failed is something I wasn't thinking of. And, it was about a parade of prospects, not about veterans added to the roster......those are two different discussions.
  15. Serious question: If Pinto is as bad at catcher as I'm told, does it hurt Meyer to have him catching?
  16. Ah, then send him down seems like the right thing......
  17. Please don't demote possible parts of the future......why would a team do that?
  18. Trade them for what? And, I don't agree. One of them should be in the bullpen for emergency starts/depth. Since Alex Meyer is showing he's not all that good ...... they need the depth.
  19. If only the Dodgers had not hired a new GM......
  20. Wow, that would be impressive if the players did that. I really like the free on tv idea
  21. Put Nolasco or Milone in the bullpen. This isn't really that hard a choice right now. this is the problem, imo, of having lots of pitchers w/o options, on a team that is not a contender.....
  22. Parade of minor leaguers? For a rebuilding team, they have promoted almost no one at all the last few years. that's, you know, part of the problem.......
  23. How is that? There are open dates, and other opportunities, to play the game in front of people. As suggested above, free, over the air broadcast is a great idea. Won't happen, but a great idea. I think it is a bad decision to play in front of no one. Are they giving money back to everyone that bought a ticket?
