    Keep Kendrys's, he is young and good.
  2. Dr. Evil
    I think Arcia will be a stud.
  3. Dr. Evil
    Baaahaaaaa! Funny but true......so.........I guess it's kinda sad actually.
  4. Dr. Evil
    I just timed myself to the fridge and back and almost equaled Kendrys's land speed record.
  5. Dr. Evil
    Arcia is on the cusp of being a star. You can see him learning and improving.
  6. Dr. Evil
    Too bad we didn't have a MLB batter to hit for fuld there.....doh!
  7. Dr. Evil
    Brings back thoughts of Ricky Henderson and how good he was at getting that early run.
  8. Dr. Evil
    Good call.
  9. Dr. Evil
    Wtf is arcia doing a dance fielding that ball?
  10. Dr. Evil
    Wonder who will replace Nolasco in the rotation.
  11. Dr. Evil
    Started at 19 still doin it at 48. Don't ever start. Real hard to quit.
  12. Dr. Evil
    As I said, Deduno needs to be done. Is today proof or does it take more?

    I think it's pretty simple. The manager's job is to try and win games with the 25 guys at his disposal. For the time being, Suzuki is hotter than Pinto. Secondly, I don't believe that the Twins are doing Pinto and Hicks any horrible disservice by having them on the bench with the big club. That part of it is a bit overblown IMHO. They are on the cusp and they will get there. Both are the club's next best options at their positions. I can't see tossing them in there in situations where Gardy clearly thinks the other guy gives the team a better chance to win. Maybe you do that in the minors but not in the bigs. Yes we are sort of in a pennant race and there are benefits to both of them being part of that while fighting for playing time and maybe in Hick's case generating a little fire in his belly every time Santana trots out to center field.

    Agreed Correa too.
  15. Dr. Evil
    Too much quality on the farm to keep running Samuel out there. Bring on the most ready farm hand now. I see no reason to wait.

    I like the moves. In general I think he Twins should nudge their players along bit more aggressively than they do. They hold on to hope with guys for too long and fall in love with mediocre veterans. I have seen enough of some of the guys on the active roster to know they are what they are. I would rather see some of the guys you are talkin about on the big club. Maybe even 1 or 2 of the AA guys like Vargas. Maybe they deal a few guys and some of these move up. It would be a it more interesting to watch anyway.

    I'm slow but trainable :0)
  18. Dr. Evil
    He's on pace for 45 rbi's. Ok, I'm being silly. That's worth it and I should not be expecting more than that. He's having a great season.
  19. Dr. Evil
    I'm a bit fed up with Mauer. Tired of hearing "he'll be fine" and "he'll get his." He's a go-zillionaire and he is not driving in runs. Get your tail in gear! Tired of hearing "keep your approach the same" and all that baloney. Drive in some runs and make a difference. I would trade him but know one would take his contract. Frustrated.....

    There should be more of a focus on evaluating, teaching and investing major league playing time in those that can or will be a part of the next planned "up-cycle" of this team. Your Willingham/Kubel/Suzuki/Fuld types should be in bench roles if at all. My lineup would be something like this- OF Parmalee, Hicks, Arcia C Pinto 3B Plouffe SS Santana 2B Dozier 1B Mauer DH Nunez Bench - Kubel, Hammer, Suzuki, Escobar If Hicks gets hurt throw Plouffe in center field for the rest of the game. Plouffe's future might actually be in the super utility role when Sano arrives anyway. I would trade or DFA Kubel and Hammer sooner than later. I see no reason for having them around when someone else can do as good and will be part of the future potentially. Pinto needs to catch most games and Suzuki can shut his trap and grab some bench. Yes Escobar is hotter than a pistol right now but if you are going to start him at short then send Santana down. I would argue that this success will not be longstanding and he will ultimately assume the utility infielder role. Put him there now and give Santana the reps in a season that really doesn't matter. That's my take on this mess.

    Might take gardie another three months of "runnin him out there" to come to that realization.
  22. Dr. Evil
    Krypes burton sucks
  23. Dr. Evil
    Them and the rest of the American LeagueLeague
  24. Dr. Evil
    Might not be the weather.
  25. Dr. Evil
    I want to put three woupie cushions behind the mask for protection and move Mauer back to catcher. If he gets nailed.........ppppppffffftttttt......bring him to the dugout and Sid Hartman can blow em back up for safety
