  1. Anyone added now is a project for sure. I fear an injury.... Heck, not sure I even like the starters, but we'll see
  2. Garver showing he can hit. And he seems to call a good game. Now he needs to catch and throw better.. but he's a legit MLB player, imo
  3. Agreed, it's more of a value question. That seems early for a kicker. So, one OL, and he's not strong. And depending on who you read, not a starter this year. Hope those people are wrong.
  4. A kicker? In round five?
  5. Did this front office add Moya and Buesnitz? Because those are the guys that seem to get called up first.
  6. I assume he's old, and never been good? That's their MO. Do NOT promote young players. Meanwhile, plenty of other teams have rookies, and have called up real prospects already.
  7. Call up Wade. Rosario or Kepler to center. Wade in a corner. No chance they do this, this FO loves their veterans....
  8. I liked that last post, because it was brave and well written. Wrong, but well written
  9. Those teams have a lot more talent and room for error. When people look at this pitching staff, do they really think it is even average? Or close?
  10. Gonsalves was promoted, but I loved your post.
  11. Hughes is done. That's obvious. Let's discuss the money..... If you cut Phil, and replace him with a minor league player, your costs go up by less than a half million dollars this year.... Are people thinking the team's budget is such they can't add less than one million dollars? If this is a playoff team, this year or next, they can't afford a pitcher like Hughes being on the roster. Let's discuss depth.... They have three guys in AAA, Romero, Gonsalves, and Mejia..... Four of you like Slegers. There is plenty of depth. The probably get Santana back this year, and have Pineda for next year. ... There is no good reason to keep him around.
  12. I don't even know what to say anymore. Is there an actual plan?
  13. But he's doing a great job with the pitching staff
  14. I'm not sure Hughes is good anymore. Call it a hunch.
  15. Even though four of the next nine picks were on the OL, I should believe there was no good talent there? Like, the data is just bad?
  16. In going by years of history here, not just this year.
  17. Four now, all interior. Every other team must be wrong about the talent.
  18. Three interior OL go in the first five picks... But there were no good OL worth taking?
  19. they seem reluctant to move on from belh starter to potential RP for some reason.
  20. posnanski has one of his frist Athletic articles about the Twins/Yankees....btw.
  21. So, I think this is behind the paywall, so I'm only going to post this one answer..... Hi Eno, long time caller, first time listener. I'm hoping you can shed light on something for me. What's wrong with the Minnesota Twins? Eno S. STAFF 2h ago @Ben S. They weren't that good last year and they didn't do enough to improve the pitching staff this year, is my guess. There's some regression from bats, which will hopefully right itself, but I wouldn't have signed Rodney and as bad as Yu has been, I would have gone to great lengths to improve the pitching staff instead of nibbling around the edges. https://theathletic.com/331500/2018/04/27/eno-sarris-live-qa-4-28-18/ I highly recommend the Athletic, if you like sports' coverage. Really good.
  22. Odds it is one time, and when Mejia is back, he goes back down? 80% for me (not what I'd do, but what I think the FO will do).
  23. It's a great magazine.....even if the beat writers are just like the other bear writers in terms of how they seem to just let the FO talk w/o ever really challenging them at all.
