  1. Have you looked at catcher stats on other teams? I think you haven't, given your first sentence. I'm glad the FO has more patience than many of you. Jeffers hasn't even played 162 games in the majors yet. (that's not aimed at the OP, as he's talking this year, but others).
  2. Sometimes, often, stuff happens and it isn't anyone's fault. Why is this so hard to understand? Not just in baseball...
  3. I too prefer Susac, but I literally have no idea who any of these gentlemen are, so I'm going to trust the FO (even if they take way too many bat first guys early for me).
  4. Disappointing is an understatement. They could do everything to win, or choose not to, for zero good reason.
  5. Imagine not having enough trust to hold a 5 run lead (now 3)....I think Cano needs to go down to AAA.
  6. 1 pitch per out would be amazing!
  7. Stop with the logic and assumption of reasonable intent..
  8. Looks like that won't be an issue.
  9. Doesn't leave the manager many options. They definitely need to find another 2 arms they trust.
  10. Yup, I'm hoping they don't repeat history....if they do, I'll jump on the 'fire them" train and drive it.
  11. This. The Twins banked on the M&M brothers carrying them. Then they got hurt, and the time passed. I am assuming this FO won't make the same mistake if they are in position to win the division.
  12. Gary Sanchez was on third. You really want bunts?
  13. You want bases loaded bunts? Really?
  14. Were any of the pitches to Gordon strikes?
  15. I live in Portland, which the national media would have you believe burned to the ground. It hasn't. Not even close. I've never felt unsafe here. Good friends of ours just moved from Iowa to downtown Portland and didn't blink an eye. Crime is up in other cities more than Mpls, but the reasons are complex and the media is lazy......so they just parrot what they are told or believe or want you to believe.
  16. It's too long and boring. So much time without anything happening. I can't imagine going to a MLB game that isn't a playoff game. Among all the other issues mentioned.
  17. To be clear, I haven't lost faith in the long run. My comment was about this year, even the next couple months. The depth is not there.
  18. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/more-young-players-who-should-be-next-to-sign-long-term-deals/
  19. Cavaco was just a mind boggling choice.
  20. It only happens in one country, so it isn't anything but easy access. The data is very clear on that.
  21. I don't judge anyone that doubted Kepler before the season. It's the people still saying he should be replaced I just don't understand at all
  22. Which really good team is trading good pitching for him? Because a bad team isn't trading for him. And which playoff team has a lot of extra pitching to trade?
