  1. Are you watching the games, my question is how often does he have to restock it.
  2. There is no going big anymore this year, you will just set the franchise back. Bold talk but I hope he waits until the offseason to back it up.
  3. It will depend who got thrown to the wolves the game before. They will send out the one who can't pitch for a few days unless it is Rogers, Gomez or Morris.
  4. Just keep the $2 beer nights and we will be happy for this year.
  5. They have 12 outfielders between here and St. Paul. While they may not all be proven players at either level. But how do you find at bats for everyone and make sure they continue their development. Log jam may not be the right word, but they do not have enough AB's to go around and it will start to impact development if they don't clear some space. Of course they have to pick the right players to keep but you can't have a forth of your 40 man roster be outfielders.
  6. And if I remember correctly from the Falvey quotes, Zoll led this trade, so are we sure we want leading this trade deadline.
  7. Let's see how Bradley does for the whole season. Because I am still seeing the same issues he had with the Rays. The Twins have smoothed some of those out but he still has command issues and can be very streaky. Even though he seems to have minimized the streaks where he struggles.
  8. And that is my frustration with this team, there is not a commitment to quality players. I know my posts can come across as negative. But in all the years I have been following this team, I have always been able to see some kind of plan, which as a fan you should be able to, even if you don't agree. But for the last few years I have no idea what this team's plan is. And I am beyond frustrated with this team.
  9. He had a walk off hit, I am sorry that doesn't make the trade a success or Roden a valued member of the team.
  10. You are saying Roden and Outman were good evaluations. Is this a Falvey burner account.
  11. And they had already traded for Outman, so they just continued to add which made it all the more baffling.
  12. Falvey has never valued the bullpen and always operated as if he could plug and play guys into a role in the bullpen. This started when he traded Pressley with a year and a half of control with no replacement ready. I don't believe that they thought it would be a year or two, his prior actions don't support that.
  13. They were throwing about 70 to 80 pitches last year IIRC. This is why they haven't been able to go very long when getting up here. I know there are injuries, but you have to have someone ready to step in if needed. Paredes is a great example, they started to stretch him out and then they pulled back.
  14. I get it, I am trying to figure it out. I was in Cedar Rapids and saw Quick pitch, his command was not good, but the strike zone seemed to be tight. But he threw three innings and they pulled in a close low scoring game. That is where I saw the stat about the innings pitched. And shortyly after that game they promoted Quick. So I am not sure what their goal is anymore.
  15. The baseball operations needs to be blown up, maybe the scouting director can stay, he seems to know what he is doing. But this team has no plan or knows how to identify and develop talent.
  16. I want a baseball guy first who knows how and when to use analytics. Falvey was a numbers guy and there has been no balance. And Zoll seems to be the same.
  17. Yes with every pitcher from what I can see looking at the box scores. Very seldom does anyone throw into the 5th inning and at 60-70 pitches they are pulled. They are doing this at every level. In Cedar Rapids their starters are averaging 3.1 innings per start which is the lowest in the Midwest league. I could understand for some younger guys, but I don't see them developing any starters to be ready to pitch up here as a starter.
  18. This is the biggest reason I want Zoll gone and new leadership on the baseball side, because I am not convinced he is going to operate any differently than Falvey.
  19. Interesting point from Provus, Cleveland has 7 rookies on their team and have a better record. Maybe playing all these AAAA types isn't as productive as letting the rookies play and learn. Of course you have to develop them as well.
  20. Maybe keep Paredes stretched out instead of moving him back and forth between the bullpen and starting. He actually gave us a couple of good outings and went into the fifth inning which is acceptable for a fifth starter.
  21. True, but at least if we had some pitching it makes watching a little easier.
  22. We have no starters in St. Paul, we better hope Preliepp can hold up, because they have no starters down there. And we will be seeing a lot more games like this if he doesn't. They are throwing a bullpen game in the first game of the week.
  23. Were you in a hurry to get Nance or Anderson in there. In fairness to Shelty, he has to choose between crap and crappier.
