  1. How will they know if they don't try? He's probably not a MLB starter, is he?
  2. I think it's fair, but it is hard to know what the plan is right now, and you would, I hope, admit it is hard to give them the benefit of the doubt on having a plan right now.
  3. Still waiting for someone to be promoted in this system..... I don't know, I don't care if Rochester needs SP, Rogers is a MLB LOOGY, and he should be up here doing that job. Can someone explain why he's starting, and not in the bullpen?
  4. Here is a list of people saying his career is over
  5. Can't tell if serious. Park is 29..... He is ready. So is Sano.
  6. This 100000000000000000000000000000x this.
  7. Ha, well, I am supposedly also working today.....
  8. This can't be a serious comment.........Puckett played OF his entire career. Try harder.
  9. I think two things: 1. yes, they are under performing in nearly all areas.......that tends to have a multiplier effect on scoring. 2. I don't think the OP is absolving the FO, it is just pointing out another issue. One thing this board tends to do is take a comment about the FO as absolving the player, or a comment about a player absolving the FO......neither is true in most/any comments, I think.
  10. We have no idea what is going on inside anyone's head. I just don't get how anyone can say anything that isn't an assumption.
  11. Or worst ever, traded for a RP or minor league A ball Catcher that is 4 years away.....
  12. Letting a backup catcher go so you can call up a guy that has NO BUSINESS being on this roster, and who then retired? Ugh.... this isn't about under performance, this is total system failure.
  13. I was counting the second Suzuki signing as a FA move.....but agreed on the Hughes extension for sure. That was just not a good idea. I have no issue with the Dozier extension.
  14. Ya, I'm not buying anything other than: 1. They refused to commit to a plan, win, or rebuild, and this is the result of 4 years of denial. The short start by May last year was so bad, it is unreal. They don't have a clear plan, nor do they seem to have a plan for how to deal with adversity. 2. Ryan isn't good at figuring out what to do with FAs, maybe him not buying them in the past was a good idea, because he's bad at it (according to the people on various sports sits, that uses to work in FOs, FAs signing is one of the things the GM actually owns). The Suzuki signing is one of the worst cheap signings in MLB history. 3. Molitor is in way over his head. The early sacrifices, batting Mastro lead off, the "use" of his bench, not PHing for Suzuki late in games.....the list is too long to type. I won't even go into how he handled Meyer. 4. They refuse to promote the young RPs, yet are perfectly williing to promote the young hitters (see above, where the plan is unknown). 5. I'm not sure, but the Twins' minor league system might need an over haual again. The team is lacking in fundamentals, they haven't (despite the awesome farm system) developed 1 hitter other than Sano since Dozier/Plouffe. Not. One. 6. They aim low. The Hicks for Murphy trade was an aim low fix to catcher. Since Suzuki signed, something like half the starting catchers have switched teams, and nearly all are better than Suzuki......aim low, score low. I have zero confidence in this leadership team at all.
  15. y'all really need new software.....it seems a bit outdated, this posting thing is a great example
  16. Has any prospect been promoted within the minors, or just filler guys?
  17. Remember when people thought they could trade Nolasco?
  18. Am I reading this correct? Is Santana at second? Not SS?
  19. I do appreciate the owner coming up with an honest slogan.....maybe we should do that for all the local teams....
