  1. If Chargois isn't on the roster, are they just punting on using any young RPs? That would make no sense to me at all. In fact, it would greatly disappoint me.
  2. Did you say ground ball tendencies? That's good, with Sano and Polanco out there?
  3. I'd like to see Wade in AA, but I agree, it might not work out that way to start the year.
  4. I'm not convinced that deciding between mediocre RPs is really a make or break decision for Falvine, frankly. Me? I'd prefer more young guys getting shots. Their arms getting healthier..... I would also prefer Hughes back in the bullpen, unless there is a miracle and he can throw hard as a starter. I think Nick has it right, prediction wise.
  5. who, exactly, have they promoted too quickly that is a RP? And why do stupid teams like the Cardinals keep promoting young pitchers to be RPs?
  6. Uh, wth were the Atlanta coaches doing passing the ball late in the game? run on 2nd down. run on 3rd down. Kick FG, go up by 11.....I blame them for being stupid.
  7. biking, hiking, skiing, snow shoeing, .........
  8. 10-15 years? No way. It didn't take CLE that long, since we know the tools didn't even exist then. This can show immediate payback.
  9. Punto was a much better player. But yes.
  10. A guy that a playoff team didn't think was good enough to be on their playoff roster......I also am surprise this isn't a minor league deal.
  11. Value? hahahahahahaha.
  12. I don't agree. They can try to implement changes, see how well the existing people do under the new system then make necessary moves. You just don't fire everyone when you take over an organization. This article is great news, imo. I think they've been behind on development for some time. I'd like to lead. Start with providing proper nutrition, for free, to every minor league player (paid for by the Twins, not the minor league teams). Add in better training (like above) and individualized plans for development (with a core philosophy behind it). That's how successful orgs run, and I, for one, am glad to read this.
  13. Not me, but I can see why someone would want to.
  14. I think Seth has it correct, to start the year. Once the season starts, it will depend on whether or not Murphy and Garver hit (assuming health, of course).
  15. Great article. Really well done here. Thank you.
  16. They also said not to get too attached to any current Twins......
  17. Uh, I agree completely. OTHER people are posting they are 1 SP away from the playoffs.....
  18. Meh. Not exactly exciting, but not bad either. Cheap, might be decent, RP on a 1 year deal. I mildly endorse this mild move.
  19. Welcome to the site! Solid base hit with your first post!
  20. Wishing i hadn't now.....
  21. Several people have posted that once these young players mature this year, and they acquire one more legit SP .... that the team is a playoff team. Those are the exact people that I have asked why Ryan was fired. I have not asked anyone else. I have not implied everyone believes that. I have not stated that everything was working fine. Not sure how this is about me, rather than the question to those that have stated it....
  22. I was just trying to understand.... I like both the ESan and Castro signing (assuming those are two of what you meant). I am trying to guess the other unsuccessfully right now.
  23. Aren't all those working, if they are 1 FA SP from being in the playoffs? I think it's a legit question, if people think the system is a playoff caliber system, why fire the GM?
  24. I have posted the Ryan question, to those that say we just need the young guys to improve, and the team will finish aroun .500 or better, and they just need to sign 1 big time pitcher to be in the playoff hunt......if all that is true, then why fire the guy?
