  1. Fangraphs has an article on trading him....
  2. Jarious 1:49 For about half a decade of bottom dwelling, why is the Twins farm system not better? Eric A Longenhagen 1:49 Meh, I think it's pretty solid.
  3. Guest 1:39 Royce Lewis seems like he could leap into an end of year top... 15? Eric A Longenhagen 1:40 Sure, that's not crazy.
  4. The chat on Texas on fivethirtyeight is great, btw. As is the Nick cage article...
  5. I don't know if there are many options to bring up players right now. Probably a RP for kinley, one who can be sent back down if needed, but other than that? This is the roster. Oh, and someone for Hughes. I'd go Mejia. For sure
  6. I didn't say you couldn't say that....I said it had nothing to do with what they should do with kinley. I agree completely he is not why they are losing, but the front office can't fix Sano... But they do have control over the roster construction. I think that's the point I would make to those saying kinley isn't the problem, and not worth discussing. I agree, he's not the biggest, or fifth biggest, problem. But, the front office can't fix Sano, or Buxton, or Duke..... But they can decide who is in the team. I don't know what a discussion of "Sano needs to hit better" looks like, but it's probably not really interesting, or something that needs more than a couple posts. Roster construction? The use of players with options versus those without at the end of the bench? Etc? Those are things that people can disagree on, and we can have conversations about. Imo
  7. Not relevant to what to do with kinley, though. Not even a little.
  8. I think it's hard to say right now, and anyone that is sure probably doesn't know squat. I'd rather trust someone that says we don't know, than someone making bold predictions. I remain optimistic the Dems will take the house. I don't on the Senate, or a huge majority in the House.
  9. Kind of showing talent matters too...imo. Gonsalves and Gordon should be there, that would help. But they aren't.
  10. I really don't know what to think at this point. But, my thoughts are less positive about this team than they were a month ago.
  11. AAA is a barren wasteland, other than a couple pitchers.
  12. But is Granite really a prospect in Minnesota? With Cave, Wade and the the guys in the majors?
  13. I'm guessing Phillies or white Sox, with Yankees right behind them.
  14. I was hoping for bacon of hope, but beacon is good too.
  15. The lack of team options is a big deal, imo. They could be cycling guys to see who is ready, or to give guys rest.
  16. I may have misunderstood your post. I thought your point was that the season didn't hinge on kinley. Does the season hinge on Grossman? Garver? Duke? I totally thought that was your point. Imo.... Every roster spot matters.
  17. I expected a competitive game. This team is better than this. They are how many years into this rebuild? I expected better, much better.
  18. Couldn't you make that argument about a third of the roster? The point isn't that their entire season hinges on him, the point is that they are using a roster spot on a guy that isn't good. On a playoff contender, not a rebuilding team.
  19. He's 27 and wasn't good in AA last year. IMO, this is a terrible waste of a roster spot, for a team that thinks it is a contender
  20. Because this thread is about the one guy. You can't have a thread that covers every problem. I don't understand how this is even a question. And if we start a thread for every problem, well, then the site is too negative to be fun
