  1. If I had to guess, they are trying to get those two as many ABs as possible to see what they have in Rooker, and to get Max out of his funk (hopefully). Much more important than Ws. Also, batting order doesn't matter much....some, not much.
  2. Curt Carlson always said the best way to make money was to use other people's money.....My friends sold their UHG stock to pay off their kids' college costs. We kept ours, and borrowed. We have SO MUCH MORE MONEY now than we would have, it isn't funny. I'd much rather borrow money at 3% and invest my excess cash than not. To each, though, their own, as they say.
  3. I'd say it is likely their presumptive closer also comes back. Not sure I LOVE this bullpen, but it is taking shape.
  4. I think you missed the bit......I was talking about their new call up....
  5. I wouldn't. He's thrown a good number of pitches at this point. I'd bring in the new guy. Young, needs to learn about pitching in the majors......
  6. Rogers, Duffey, Gant, Minaya, Alcala (most likely)......that leaves a few spots. I'm guessing 1 FA and the rest from the minors. They need that FA money for SP and SS.
  7. No idea. I never listen to announcers other than sometimes soccer or golf. Music, baby.
  8. Sano was ok....he got a walk. Not sure how that's dog poop....
  9. Cave's beard>>>>Cave's play. Like Rooker, I'll be somewhat surprised if he's on the roster next year. Though at least he can play some D, so it's possible.
  10. I'm guessing he's up until the season is over.....not sure who would replace him on the roster at this point. I'll be shocked if he's a Twin next year.
  11. your feed is about 30 seconds to a minute ahead of YouTube.....sigh.
  12. I'm ok with that....they need to see the RPs too. I'm also ok if he comes back out.
  13. I don't watch much baseball these days....but Ober looks to have decent movement on his pitches. Looks like a legit #4/5 type, hopefully.
  14. Is DH a position? He also did an awful job on that popup....
  15. Given this, probably time to just pull him off the list.....I get it, he's still eligible, but not for long...
  16. 68-69K people streaming it......technology is amazing, really. That picture is perfect. As were those three pitches from Ober to Vaughn.
  17. The Twins just traded for Martin.....so some teams must put value on 2B types. Are we sure they don't have a decision on Arraez vs Polanco at this point? I bet they do.
  18. There is a zero percent chance Kepler is not on this roster next year to start the year. Most likely Sano also. Refsnyder has the inside track on the 4th OF spot at this point, imo. I have no idea what you think will happen with Donaldson, care to expand on that? He's signed to a massive deal, he's not getting DFAd...and is hard to trade.
  19. Not sure what that means about the Twins, but it might mean something. Frankly, he was getting back on track when dealt, and I'd rather have Gant at this point, but still....wt?
  20. Agreed. Plus, Ryan is about the only guy I expect up as a starter the rest of the way.
  21. I really think he's got a chance to be a bullpen arm long term. I am less confident he's a starter, but hey, weirder things have happened. To Brock's other point..... Bring up more young bullpen arms! That babip is not sustainable, no way.
  22. The impending heat must be getting to you .... Imo, Rooker is a great AAAA player. If he had defensive value, it would be different, but he just doesn't have a spot on this roster looking term. He might elsewhere. I am intrigued by these pitchers.....
