  1. Agree with everything you just typed, Jeremy. It's one reason I wish you could trade draft picks. I'd do everything I could to get like 3 top 10 picks, and take a bunch of pitchers with upside. Stewart, Stanek, Shipley......
  2. If it is not a coach's job to make players better, no matter how bad they are, what is his job? I mean, if all we are going to say about Gardy and Anderson is that they have no responsibility when the players are bad, why not jus hire me to do their jobs?
  3. Yup, it's all about money. Winning and hope and giving the fans a reason to come to the game is stupid.
  4. Keep him down, the longer they keep him down, the better. I mean, why promote him from a league he's crushing like almost no one ever does? It makes no sense to challenge him. It makes no sense to rush him, no prospect ever comes up that young or fast. You have to dominate at least 2 times through the league first. You have to field well, who cares how good your bat is. Really, there is no reason to promote him......
  5. I think it is not as cut and dry as you think. Buxton is in low A, and Gausmann is going to start in MLB games this year. He's also looking better than people thought he'd look. Yes, Buxton is exciting and we can all hope he continues to be great at upper levels and here, but I don't think it is that cut and dry. Actually, I'd rather have Gausmann right now. He's more certain, and his ceiling is one of the top 20-30 pitchers in the game. Given that you need 5 starters, and they literally have zero right now, I'd still rather have Gausmann.
  6. I'd say it is not unreasonable for him to be the pick, but that he's about 7-10th on the list right now......
  7. Don't forget, they will be playing meaningful games in September.
  8. I hope Revere has a long and prosperus career. I also hope May and Worley do.....but I'm beginning to have doubts. But all of them are too young to give up on.
  9. I'll take that bet, what odds do people want? Gray or Appel will be the pick, I'd bet Gray if I had to pick one. But I'm happy to take the field over Moran....
  10. You want accountability? You can't handle accountability.....
  11. the guy that keeps typing that is a genius, but I don't see the Twins thinking outside the box that much* *assuming you mean my idea of having lots of relievers that pitch every few days, in lieu of starters, if not, then that guy is not a genius really....
  12. So hard to "hear" humor on the interwebs....
  13. It's possible, begging certain questions about offseason decisions.....
  14. It wasn't meant as rude, but I can see how you might think that. My apologies. I'd like to some youtube video of someone apolgizing, but I'm at work, and blocked.....
  15. His performance has been the same every outing since it happened, so he's been very consistent in the last 24 hours or so.....I bet Albers is next.
  16. Wow. I never expected this when they acquired him. But, Ryan is at least taking action.
  17. Another upside is that if it does not work, they can use the cash to get better MLB FAs next year....................
  18. A lot longer than you'll like, would be my guess. Anyone, not named Mauer, over 30 should be off this roster, should have been last year. Call up any AAA or AA close to ready. Blow it up like Worley or Pelfrey is your pitcher....
  19. It is, but you expect deep analysis from Bert? Or any Twins' announcer?
  20. So he should be a number 3? Why isn't he?
  21. I really thought Worley was a number 3/4 type.......totally sold a bill of goods. I should never read anything from the Twins or Strib when it comes to assessing players. Ever.
  22. I was just going to type this.......so they can't pitch or hit, pretty much, right now......and they have no answers in AAA or AA, it would appear, for the hitting at least. Pretty sad state of affairs right now.
  23. As always, I agree with Seth....
  24. They don't have that many DH types either, assuming the H stands for hitter.....
