  1. That was funny how emphatically the third base coach was on that play!
  2. Maybe Ruesse is right and he needs to prep more in the offseason and get stronger.
  3. I agree with much of what you say.
  4. I politely disagree. Kendrys is a slugger.
  5. I don't like trading a good player who is in his early 30s for nothing. This trade stinks.
  6. Shane I don't totally agree on the concept of blocking. Perhaps I actually do but I have a different way of looking at it I guess. I would like to see a minor league philosophy were top prospects are playing with top prospects, developing chemistry and working together towards the big leagues. I see no value in filler players at each level and that is where I believe the team needs to adjust their philosophy. I'm gunna take some heat for these comments but I really think there is a benefit to having top prospects work together and figure it out together. Even if they are at slightly different maturity levels. I think we agree but in slightly different philosophies. I find that I agree with you on the vast majority of your posts.
  7. What a joke. We need guys like Kendrys. Just gave him away. Should have resigned him.
  8. We gave away a solid player just as he essentially completed the equivalent of spring training and got squat for him. We should be collecting guys like him not dumping them. We should have resigned him to 3-4 years.
  9. Darn it, we suck again!
  10. We have one of the most loaded farm systems in the league. Why give up your core major league guys for more maybe's? The goal is to try and get to a solid to above average starting 9 and back it with solid pitching. Our bullpen is 3rd or 4th in the league. Our starting rotation has a couple keepers on board with some good prospects getting close to moving up and rounding things out. Where we are lacking is in the core starting 9. Right now you could say we have quality in Dozier, Mauer(when healthy), Morales, Suzuki, Plouffe(maybe), and a good utility guy in Escobar. How does tearing down the little bit of top 9 talent we currently have make us better? We should be keeping the guys that are major league caliber and trying to build towards a solid top 9. This team has 4-5 major holes in just fielding a competitive top 9. I get it with Willingham, I really do. But the rest of these guys plus a free agent and maybe one or two guys that develop in the minors gets us pretty close to being competitive. Or, maybe an Arcia or a Parmalee gets it together and figures it out. I can't see tearing that down and starting at ground zero again.
  11. We win! We don't suck again!
  12. Nice play by Esco-star!
  13. I don't even know how to spell Zepplin.
  14. Wish the Twins would rock every day like Led Zeppelin! Some day soon I hope.
  15. Man I sure hope we don't lose 90 games again!
  16. Common fein, change speeds!
  17. Mmmmmmmm caaaaaaake.....
  18. Oh no! We suck again! Gardie/Ryan old loyalties are a commendable principle, results speak volumes.
  19. It will sure be fun to compare his numbers to others in the second half. Hope he does well. He has a good track record anyway.
  20. I think he has played around 33 games this year right?
  21. Watch him I in the second half. He had no spring training.
  22. 167/23/80(hits/hr/RBI) for kendrys in 2013. Which 9 do the twins have that can best those numbers?
