  1. Alcala, Farrell (who?), or Smeltzer are your choices.
  2. Who is a better option? This is the bullpen he's been handed....
  3. When the Twins win, does the scorer give Rogers the win? Can he/she?
  4. You think many managers would send out a short reliever for a 4th inning?
  5. It's hard to imagine any manager sending Rogers out there for another inning.
  6. Kiriloff, Lanarch, and all the others "aren't ready".
  7. The starters aren't too good this year either.....yet. Now, I think Happ and Shoemaker are both #5 pitchers...so that's an issue.
  8. Mighty kind of the A's to keep swinging early in counts. Gotta send him out next inning also, right?
  9. And Kepler. I get people are disappointed in him, but he's a legit starting OF (whereas the others not named Buxton are not, imo).
  10. I said I'd give the FO one more year before starting to judge their "pitching genius"....but they are testing my patience right now.
  11. The reports from scouts, and the rankings on boards, say he's good at D (which, we'll see, I guess).
  12. There isn't enough alcohol in the world for this game.....
  13. Hence...unfounded..... If you have no idea it is true, why accuse them of it? They've worked hard their whole lives to get here. They've dreamed about winning it all since they were kids. Can you offer any evidence to back your accusation at all?
  14. That's not what the post said. It said they didn't care about winning and only cared about their paycheck.
  15. This is an unfounded, likely untrue, post.
  16. I don't think this is a manager problem. He didn't suddenly forget how to manage. The bullpen isn't good. The hitters aren't hitting. I'm not sure what to do about the second problem, other than promote Kiriloff, who might be a legit MLB player. Cave and Garlick are backups. As for the bullpen, no quick fix is available. This is the staff this FO built. That's on them, not the manager.
  17. Imo, u have to do all three well.... And no place did I even imply the last two years were meaningless.
  18. My post was pretty clearly not about free agents..... Or trades. Like when ryan's teams developed players, but I criticized him for free agency issues.
  19. They are also responsible for developing the players drafted before they got here, right? But, like I said, one more year before I can feel like I can draw conclusions.
  20. That's my point.... I'm waiting one more year before starting to make conclusions... But so far I'm not optimistic.
  21. I'm still waiting for this FO to develop good to great players. At some point, we need to see something from the minors.
