  1. I think Rooker and Kiriloff could be promoted at this point, but I guess there isn't much season left.......Hopefully they start next year up a level from where they are (or maybe even in MN for Rooker).
  2. Yikes. Good luck to him!
  3. Plus, way less balls in play makes those guys way less valuable.
  4. My sister actually interviewed at Pokeman US....and asked her nephew about the games before hand.....didn't get it though.
  5. concur.
  6. Unbelievable, frankly.
  7. I agree with this also. I don't get the angst over the comments......they make sense emotionally, if not logically. They should be upset about this, all of it......on reflection, they should also realize why this happened and not be upset over time.
  8. Who's joyful on this site about Stewart? I don't read that anywhere..... but, given that he went unclaimed last year by every team....him showing that maybe (maybe) he will work somehow in the majors is an improvement. So, count me in the hopeful, but doubting, group.
  9. About what I've read.....decent stuff, but no out pitch yet......I'd add him to the 40 man, or trade him, as I'm sure he'll get claimed.....
  10. Ugh. Good luck to him! Nothing bums me out more about sports than these guys getting hurt for our entertainment. bummer.
  11. I still don't understand how there wasn't more demand last year....2B, 1B, DH.....some of the DHs out there......
  12. They went in hard in the off season. It didn't work. The players were mostly bad, or hurt. I don't know what Santana wanted, logically. Emotionally? Sure. But the front office can't act on emotions. And no, there is no evidence they should bring him back. I don't know if odorrizi is the right veteran or not.....
  13. Good decision by Berger.....you can only get your body and brain beat up for so long.....
  14. they've already seen Romero, Gonsalves isn't available for Sunday......and Stewart needs to be on teh 40 man next year, or will likely be claimed. I fail to see the downside. Gonsalves and Thorpe will get their chances. I'm just super excited it is not a 34 yo veteran with no future with the team.
  15. LOFO at number 4.....wow. Imagine thinking that would happen for any team this year.....ever....
  16. I have some issues with the FO, but admitting they were wrong by trading guys is not one of them, imo.
  17. I think they know what they have in Romero.....so I'd rather see Gonsalves or Stewart, but I'm good with any of the three......no interest in Littell for me.
  18. Yup, it is a game theory exercise. Me? I'd like to see what he does in the majors, if I'm the Twins. I think someone selects him next year, there are some really bad teams/staffs out there. He's worth a risk, imo, for someone.
  19. so much to like IN this post.....
  20. Austin, after not playing for 2 days.
  21. I'd guess Romero or Littell.....I hope Romero. Given that Stewart has to be protected again this year, I'd be ok with it being him. Why not?
  22. Or scouting, or physical ability, or lots of things.....most of the online publications have guys and gals that see the people in person, and they don't just rely on stats. They also talk to scouts from every organization over and over. I'd guess that there is some bias for original thoughts, but it disappears over time. After all, a month or two of data shouldn't change your opinion on someone, if that opinion is based on several years of data, unless there is a clear process change.
