  1. So, if we take out all the bad starts, how do pitchers do? That's not how the world works...
  2. What would you have done differently last night?
  3. Starters averaged 5.1 innings across MLB last year..... And, I'd likely piggyback two starters, not four.
  4. Thanks! I wish Martin was in left field..... They have Polanco and Arraez.... I would have Miranda getting time at first, apparently, also.....
  5. Can we add the position played for some of the prospects that move around a lot (I'm thinking Lewis, Miranda, and Martin specifically)? thanks,
  6. Kind of early to decide that, IMO. Plus, they got a RP....and a PTBNL.
  7. I said this last year, and I'll say it again. Rocco can only play the players he's given. And, they are less than 2 full weeks into the season. Should he really have given up on Duffey and not used him last night? What, exactly, would you have done other than that? I too am surprised by the lack of piggybacking, but Archer's injury may have played a part in that.....Also, and I'll say this again, I'm 100% sure they have a plan for using the "starters" for the first month, and it isn't just Rocco making that plan.
  8. When the rosters go down in size, Jax and Stashak are going down for sure. I don't believe either is a MLB RP, so I'd be good trying someone else.
  9. I gave up on Space Force after two episodes. It was too real for me and depressed me.
  10. That Mythic Quest episode is one of the best tv episodes in history, imo. It was truly great acting and writing.
  11. It isn't like Rogers would be coming in in the 7th.......so yesterday would be no different. I understood the Rogers trade, and the Twins already have lost starts to injury..... I don't know what I'd do at this point. I would consider moving someone up from the minors, even converting one of their minor league potential starters to RP (no idea who, I'd have to give that more thought). Duffey looks lost right now, but it is tiny sample size.....but man, this does remind me of last year. Once they cut bait on their failed closer, their record was decent....
  12. Isn't Celestino the starting LFer when Buxton is back? He should be, unless Larnach tears the cover off the ball. In any event, I'd still have him in the majors as the 4th OFer. He can replace Larnach on D late in a game, pinch run, etc.
  13. This is embarrassing. The last two articles didn't deserve front page highlighting at all.
  14. This is a troll thread, right? Two in a row. Awful.
  15. Watched my only NBA game Saturday.......was in a brewery.....imagine my surprise when a MN team won a playoff game, and it was the Wolves!
  16. What the heck are they doing with Martin? Is he a SS, LF? Now second? I clearly have no idea what the plan is.
  17. At some point you have to start a rookie......and trust your process. I love how people have such certainty over a guy that has less than a few hundred ABs in the majors (not that you are wrong or right, got no idea).
  18. If I had a child that needed that much care, and I had that much money, I know where I'd be.......
  19. Certainly possible. I thought Sano would be good to start the year this year......or AK would be there and Celestino/Larnach would be in LF....shows what I know.
  20. I wasn't only talking OF, but I agree..... Really, the FO added four starting pitchers, a superstar SS, replaced their 3B with a good (not great) one, replaced a good defensive catcher who couldn't hit with who knows what (but used to be good), signed Buxton. Other than RP, what wasn't handled, which was my question. They have OFers in the minors, they have prospect SP if the vets fail. I don't love all the decisions, but some posters seem to think they did nothing to make the team better.....
  21. They have Larnach, Martin, Lewis, Miranda and maybe 1-2 others in the minors. They hoped, I'm sure, Larnach would make the roster...... I agree, Rodriguez was called up, and he or Jax will go down for an OFer. What issues would you want addressed (other than RP)?
