    Go Twins. Be smart.
  2. tarheeltwinsfan
    What?
  3. tarheeltwinsfan
    It's simple. In order to avoid long losing streaks, a team needs two or more starters who consistently pitch outstanding games of 7 + innings and even a complete game every now and then. When was the last time a Twins pitcher pitched a complete game shutout? Successful teams have several pitchers capable of this...the Twins do not.

    Nice post, backed up by facts. Thanks.

    So we don't draft Kolek because he throws the ball too fast?

    A ship is always safe in the harbor, but that is not what it was built for. Don't take a "safe pick" on the 5th draft choice. We desperately need a SS, the rarest quality position player on a team. If you don't take a risk, you are guaranteeing things will remain the same. If the big 3 pitchers are not available, draft Gordon.

    Great article and posts. Thanks.

    We need a SS more than we need a middle of the rotation guy (Nola). If we don't select Gordon, where will our future SS come from? Santana and Gordon have equal chances of becoming a competent major league SS and I predict Gordon will be the better of the two.

    No way the Twins should draft him 5th.

    Who says this isn't the classiest web site in all of baseball. Thanks Paul.

    Levi, Repeat, I say again, repeat. This is Tar Heel -out,
  12. tarheeltwinsfan
    Make that a resounding "YES".

    Thanks for this update. Some I miss, some I don't, but all used to be Twins. I wish every one of them well, especially the three classy ex-Twins playing for the Rockies. Did any of you read the recent article about LaTroy Hawkins? Great article about LaTroy, a really nice person, who happens to be a baseball player. One last thing... I don't want Big Poopi to whoop the Twins anymore.

    Did I say something wrong? If so, I'm sorry. I realize this is a Twins fans' site in which many intelligent Twins fans are posting. I have been a Twins fan even when they were the original Washington Senators. Yes, I'm older than dirt. However I really have enjoyed the posts. I wish I could back up my posts with better stats and sabremetrics (I don't even know if I spelled this correctly). But the truth is that I can't back a lot of what I write up by stats. I just let fly with my comments which I think are relevant or funny and sometimes my fingers type faster than my brain works. I'm relatively new here, still a rookie, so bear with me. I'll try to use more facts and less emotion in my posts.

    If the Pittsburg Pirates don't want the guy, we certainly don't. Free Meyer!
  16. tarheeltwinsfan
    How is this an improvement?
  17. tarheeltwinsfan
    If his best Cy finish was only 5th, that shows he was not HOF. HOF should require the player to have been the best in his league, at least several years. HOF should not be awarded for above average performances performed for many years. Just saying.
  18. tarheeltwinsfan
    Not me. I'd rather beat the White Sox, so I can post "HE GONE!"on the White Sox mbl sites when the Twins beat the ChiSox. To paraphrase Big Poopi: "I love to whoop the White Sox".
  19. tarheeltwinsfan
    Everything is so much clearer in hindsight.
  20. tarheeltwinsfan
    I repeat my comment of yesterday: Fien has been a fine find.
  21. tarheeltwinsfan

    Fantastic Fien

    Fien has been a fine find.

    Very touching and inspirational story. I wish Cola all the best. He is a winner at baseball and at life.
  23. tarheeltwinsfan
    Dave, please sell your tickets.
  24. tarheeltwinsfan
    Shhhh! Not so loud. The Yankees might hear you.

    People who live in glass houses, shouldn't throw stones. We who chose to post here, among some really smart baseball minds, need to be careful not to be mean spirited with our criticism. After all we are all Twins fans and we are all in this together. And we need to remember that as much as we like the Twins, no one wants to succeed more than each individual Twins' coach, GM, manager or player, whether he is on the 25 man roster, the 40 man roster or in AAA or low A. Gooooooooooooo Twins!
