Brad Radke's changeup could be straight filthy at times. Absolute work horse. He had a couple of bad seasons and few mediocre ones, but he was on fire in 1997 and still managed to win 20 games for a team that only won 68. If he had played on a real winning contender in 1998, 1999, and 2000 he would have won 20 games in each of those seasons. He played on some REALLY REALLY bad Twins teams in the mid to late 90's. He should be in the Hall of Fame. I still think that if Liriano hadn't blown out his UCL in 2006, and Radke hadn't torn his labrum and had a stress fracture in his right shoulder, with Johan Santana firing on all cylinders, that team makes it to the world series.

Yes, agreed. All those young guys in the pen and in the rotation need to watch him carefully. Throwing hard is great, but can you really pitch? Ober doesn't throw hard but he can pitch. I'll eat crow, I thought he was utter toast after spring training, but so far, he's looked pretty darn good. Not perfect but good.

Bailey Ober Is Performing Like a Pitcher From Another Era

Interesting analogy but accurate. They have to find other options for the bullpen. If you can't hold a lead or keep the damage to a minimum there's no amount of offense that will be sufficient. I think there are guys they can call up to start remedying the offense but the pen is a different animal.

Mariners 7, Twins 1: A Game of Two Bullpens
laloesch replied to Cory Moen's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
I doubt it. #3 I'd do that trade again in a heart beat. I think Abel and Tait are gonna be good but we'll have to wait and see on that one. 1-2 yep do them again. #4 not so sure. Roden was doing fine until the injury and Kendry Rojas hasn't really had a chance to show us anything yet. #5. Absolutely the right move in my opinion. The Correa trade topic has been discussed ad nauseum on these forums but I think it was 100% the right move to dump in back on the Stros. WaYYYYYY to expensive for his offensive production. -

It's not as filthy as 2006 Lirano's slider, but it honestly doesn't have to be, it's good enough. -

Marco Raya’s Bullpen Transition Facing a Critical Hurdle
laloesch replied to Cody Christie's topic in Twins Minor League Talk
Unfortunately, this happens often with young pitching prospects. His control is just not good enough. He either figures it out and maybe backs off a bit on the velocity to control the results better or he languishes and never makes it. It's a hard pill to swallow considering how highly he was touted, but it is what it is i suppose. -

Can Luke Keaschall Break Out of His Sophomore Slump?
laloesch replied to Cody Christie's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
They could send Luke Keaschall down to the Saints for a bit to figure things out and call up Culpepper and give him a look. -

Lewis and Lee chased pitches out of the zone all of last season. That's why it's so devastating to have them both in the lineup at the same time.
