  1. Robles outperformed the odds there......the problem was the starter was finally left in like you all have been BLASTING the manager for not doing.......I'll sit here and wait for everyone to talk about how wrong they were about that.....
  2. When I'm at the bottom of a thread and hit next or back, it sends me to the bottom of the new page. Seems like it should be the top. Using my phone
  3. Isn't that true of every club?
  4. Offense is DOWN across the league. The Twins are median in runs scored.....not that you can peanut butter them this early in the season, but over time it should even out. Not that median is good, btw.....
  5. If you have to create a new theme....ugh. I'd move that down your list for sure if it is that much work. Anyway, like the nice clean look and font. Great work.
  6. I couldn't disagree more about sprinting on a routine ground ball.
  7. Big fan of the ability to set it so that clicking on the thread name takes me to the first post I haven't read, instead of the thread beginning! Hoping for dark mode....
  8. I have no interest in Rooker....he won't even come close to Sano's production, and not Kepler's either (esp. if you factor in defense). Lanarch? He should be up in a month, give or take. It's not like he's 19 years old.....
  9. To be clear, you think you'd have to package Sano and Kepler to get 1 good RP? Also, you might want to look at power and walks, and not just BA.....because every team does when assessing players' value.
  10. What should he have done last night? Because there were no good options...
  11. I thought the plan was to piggyback Dobnak and / or Thorpe with Happ and Shoemaker, but apparently not. Like you, I don't understand the plan.
  12. I do agree the FO should be moving on from Waddell, but that's on them, not the manager......
  13. I rip this team a lot for not spending....but I'm not sure who they could/should have signed this off season other than one good SP, rather than two cheap ones. But, so far, Happ has been quite good..... They actually spent a lot of money on Colome.... There is not one non-pitcing position where, given this roster and the minors, that you'd bring in a player other than SS, which they did. That leaves the bullpen and SP.....They weren't signing Bauer. Not sure who else you'd sign after signing Happ. As for the bullpen....which expensive RP was a realistic sign? Maybe they are leaving space to sign Buxton and/or Berrios? But, really, there weren't a lot of players that were realistic at all, that they have space for. I guess you could argue C, but I doubt any FO gives up on Garver after last year's short season, not with Jeffers in the minors.
  14. I really don't understand these thoughts on Sano all over this board. Look at his career, and ask if you want to do anything other than start him at first.
  15. According to the data, little exit velocity comes from the pitcher. You can find studies on line if you want.
  16. KC is legit, if only because they are one of the teams most willing to deal at the deadline if they are close/good, IMO. MN is the most unpredictable of the clubs, for me. I think they should be contenders, but this start and bullpen....ugh.
  17. If the talent pipeline is tapped, this team has very long term issues......
  18. And yet, Arraez hits, so I don't know what to do with him.
  19. no... It starts with the players and the front office.
  20. I said HOPE.....but, ya.
  21. Shocker that he's suddenly ready. Truly. He should play, and play every day. I'm not sure what to make of Gordon, but I'm hoping he's at least a good defensive backup.
  22. sometimes the manager does....and they still don't make the play. Why is that so hard to believe?
