  1. Cold in Minnesota: Any news on Sano’s progress? Is there hope for him contributing anytime soon? Or even at all this season? 10:16 Jeff Sullivan: With the Twins basically out of it, there’s reduced urgency to get Sano’s bat back into the lineup. They’re going to take their time and they’re going to get Sano into better shape. I’m sure he’ll return, but I don’t think it’s happening within a few weeks OddBall Herrera: Think Jorge Polanco’s activation is much of a difference maker for the Twins, or is this too little too late? I for one am a believer in him but not so much this team. 11:02 Jeff Sullivan: Polanco is fine, the team is not
  2. They won't identify any if they pay EE twice what he's worth.
  3. All of this. I will feel bad if the front office doesn't do this.
  4. Just like they did in the fifties and sixties. Those damn civil Rights protesters were just not polite enough. Change does not come by keeping the comfortable comfortable.
  5. If you never make trades until one player fixes everything, you never make trades. No one is saying they are one player away. No one.
  6. Nice. I have no idea what that last sentence means.
  7. He shouldn't have. Professional scouts rip college coaches that do this left and right. Teams stay away from drafting pitchers whose coaches do this. Certain schools have seen their pitchers go later in drafts because is how they treat them.
  8. That's true.
  9. The way some of these posts read, it's almost like the Republicans don't exist, and the voters don't like them, and it's all the Democrats fault. I think people are underestimating the GoP and their voters.
  10. Golly that intentional walk was stupid. Amazingly, fire the manager now, stupid.
  11. under control....as if that wasn't obvious. I'm not dealing Buxton, Sano, Kepler, Rosario....not unless it is something amazing. Nor Berrios or Romero. sorry if somehow I wasn't clear.....
  12. doesn't matter if they won't promote one for Wilson, who has no business in the majors right now.
  13. because getting something for Dozier, or Rodney or Escobar or any other FA is better than nothing, and you can get lucky. Or, they can be used as part of packages. I'm not trading anyone under control past 2019, and probably not anyone not a FA this year, but I'd listen on Reed (not sure who else is a FA after 19 other than Castro). they don't have a competitive team, imo. Not tearing down when they could have was a mistake. Standing pat for a few extra moments of fun this summer doesn't help this team in 19 or beyond, and, imo, 18 is gone.
  14. I see zero chance Mauer is dealt. And, I don't think many people here will be excited about the trade returns they do get, if any, from trades. Unless they bundle a couple players together, I see ok prospects coming back.
  15. I can't believe they intentionally walked someone. unreal. So bad. I'd consider firing the manager right now.
  16. there is a problem, agreed. there are some interesting studies about the ineffectiveness in getting people to change their minds by using facts, btw.....so I'm not sure that is going to work on enough people. But, I'd hope we at least try both logic and emotional appeals.
  17. intentional walks....stupid. make them pay!
  18. people have used phrases like lazy and doesn't care....among other things. I think that's the part that some of us push back on.
  19. about to enter the 13th inning of glorious baseball. Soccer has more action than this
  20. they got Mejia for Nunez....Mejia is a number 4 or 5 starter...I'd be thrilled if they added a SP that good, who had 6 years of control.....
  21. How is Wilson still in this game? I mean, it is a day game after a night game, and extra innings? He's a gamer!
