    I agree with your assessment. Just think what we posters would be writing (myself included) if the Twins had done nothing (like the White Sox and Guardians).

    The Twins are a better team today than they were 2 days ago, partly due to this trade. The AL Central is there for the Twins to take. The Twins had to obtain several relievers and they did so. Lopez was the key. I watched a really great video showing his 9 year old son, who has health problems, watching his dad pitch. It was beautiful Welcome to the Twins family, Jorge Lopez and your family.

    A good way to look at this. I do miss Petty though.

    Who has been removed from the Twins 26 man roster and who has been removed from the 40 man roster, to make room for Lopez and Mahle? The Twins are a much better team today than they were yesterday.

    I like this trade. Twins get immediate help this year, and potential help the next 2 years.

    Really good post. Thanks JM.

    Chief, I agree about questionable management. AJ Pierzynski was the color man on the mlb/tv game last night. AJ also questioned why Gray was not sent out for the 6th inning because the bullpen had been overworked already this year and Gray had had a good, short 5th inning. AJ also said Gordan should have advanced to 3B instead of stopping at 2B on the Celestino hit to RF. He said there was now way he would have been thrown out. AJ criticized Pagan's errant throw to 1B, saying when you come in a game, you've got to be ready to play. I had not been an AJ fan, he is too abrasive for me. but AJ kept making really good points. I did not watch the start of the game, so I did not know who the color man was until late in the game. He also said Gordan may be wearing his pants above his knees in order to get more balls called on low pitches when he is batting. A really interesting point. All in all, AJ really show some keen baseball knowledge. I enjoyed his comments.

    Cody, Thanks for this interesting list. Does this rating system also mean that these should be the top 5 players whom the Twins should keep? That's the way I look at it. Hurray for Kep having an outstanding season. I hope he will frequently hit to the left side as long as teams put the shift on him.

    Nice Dave. Thanks for the laughs.

    When Cleveland plays Chicago this year, I submit the Twins fans should hope for a split. I also find myself pulling for the team with the worse record. By the way, another nice article. You have not been writing as much lately. Maybe tied up in a trial?

    Pitching, pitching, pitching.

    Good post. Sabato may do well in Colorado.
  13. tarheeltwinsfan
    I agree.
  14. tarheeltwinsfan
    I appreciate your proposal.
  15. tarheeltwinsfan
    And this comment is why I would not have traded Petty,
  16. tarheeltwinsfan
    Outstanding work Jamie. Thank you.
  17. tarheeltwinsfan
    I feel great about Chase Petty? Oh never mind.
  18. tarheeltwinsfan
    Good point.

    I met Chris Williams when he was just getting started with his pro career in Elizabethton (RIP -sigh). Chris was a very friendly and personable young man who was excited to be in the Twins organization. We kidded each other about our respective schools (UNC and Clemson). Trevor Larnach was also on that team and he had previously hit a homer to help beat the Tar Heels in the college world series. Trevor didn't smile much, but maybe he was having a bad day. .

    The powers that be must have seen something more in him than his batting statistics, because he kept getting promoted even with terrible stats with little, to no, improvement year after year. Sometimes Hamilton wasn't catching much either. If I had a son playing baseball, I would show him Hamilton's batting stats and Hamilton's consistent promotions, and tell my son to be a catcher.

    When you go to San Francisco, wear some flowers in your hair. How's that for opaque? LOL
  22. tarheeltwinsfan
    Meyer, Stewart and Jay...oh my.
  23. tarheeltwinsfan
    I was most impressed with Johnson's comments out of all the draftees interviewed. He is a very impressive young man. I wish the Twins had had the opportunity to draft him.
  24. tarheeltwinsfan
    Amen RJA. I agree 100%. This is one of the main reasons I enjoy being a Twins fan.

    Thanks for your insightful reply.
