  2. Dr. Evil
    How do you tune in opposing teams game call?
  3. Dr. Evil
    Gotta love Rosario!
  4. Dr. Evil
    Chi town Gomes is cranky!
  5. Dr. Evil
    Gee looks like we got a starting shortstop, I like it!
  6. Dr. Evil
    Escobaaaaarrrrrrr

    Joba can suck just enough to fit in with our pen, Teeerrrryyyyy!!!!!!
  8. Dr. Evil
    When Hicks comes back will he be in left field and Rosario in right?
  9. Dr. Evil
    So, the Twins are cheaters? Hmmm.... I don't like that.
  10. Dr. Evil
    Back in the day, when they discovered that a person was left handed, they would chop their left hand off and make them a regular person. Cruel, but true story.
  11. Dr. Evil
    I'm really pulling for those call up guys. Especially Vargas and Santana
  12. Dr. Evil
    He is one of our top six players. Keep him.
  13. Dr. Evil
    May is dominant in the pen
  14. Dr. Evil
    I would not mind if Hunter stayed around next year as a bench bat. He would have ben a better pinch hit option than what we have now. It's sort of a shame that bench bats and bullpen don't seem to be given much attention.

    Maybe Buxton had to poop?
  16. Dr. Evil
    That Buxton is fairly swift.
  17. Dr. Evil
    Hope Shane can swing from his heels and send one over the shortstop.
  18. Dr. Evil
    Geeeze nice job Duensing!
  19. Dr. Evil
    In a perfect world your highest paid assets are your best producing assets. It seldom works that way.
  20. Dr. Evil
    I agree, just like Kendrys.
  21. Dr. Evil
    The percentages I chose to use were arbitrary. My point is that what's best for the overall group is an additional consideration to be made. Not to minimize other factors at all. Those are also real important.
  22. Dr. Evil
    The net value of a starter vs a reliever can also be looked at relative to the strengths and weaknesses of the current staff. If his replacement in the rotation is 10% worse than him and he is 50% better than the next late innings pen option(Fein or Duensing as examples) then I would say it is a net gain for the staff in it's entirety if he is in the pen. Especially when you consider he would be in high leverage situations late in games out of the pen.
  23. Dr. Evil
    Either way, I hope next year we have a solid pen. The value of a solid closer/setup combination seems to get understated at times(not pointing fingers at anyone here). If you can consistently shorten the game to 7 innings there is a lot of value in that. We have more options at starting pitcher than we do quality pen arms. Some of our pen arms are more suited for mop up duty. This imbalance can't continue. If that means May as the setup guy and Berrios or Duffy in the rotation next year, I see it as a net overall gain for the team in it's entirety. If a guy like Meyer suddenly emerges and figures things out while becoming a flame thrower in the pen too, I have no problem with that either.
  24. Dr. Evil
    Yea, I get that. I'm just sort of saying that it's maybe a little more about the productivity of the team as a whole and pointing out that power can be spread out over the entire team if it adds up to the same total.
  25. Dr. Evil
    There's no rule that says a team's power must come from the corner infielders and the corner outfielders. The team as a whole seems to get enough home runs. His defense is adequate and his hitting productivity is far from being our most glaring offensive weakness. I catch myself getting annoyed with him at times just like a lot of people do though.
