  1. He's had one good game in the last month and that was today. His OPS is actually less than it was in April. He needs to be playing a couple days a week. This continued playing him every day makes the poor roster construction even worse.
  2. Yes that is the schedule they had him on in St. Paul as one of the bulk guys. He was not starting down there since he came off the IL.
  3. It was good to see Gomez get the save but let's pump the brakes on him being the new closer. Maybe they found something here but we have seen this many times before and many times it has not worked out.
  4. My guess is they will go with another bullpen day on Thursday, this will keep Rojas on his every fourth day schedule. I read they want to push Preilepp back to manage his workload. They are trying hard to bring the bulk pitching to the major leagues. Soon we will have no starters or relievers here in the major leagues either.
  5. He can be DFA'd, it's just the Twins are to risk averse and think he will all of sudden become the next Mariano Rivera.
  6. And Caratini hasn't done well against any pitcher for the last month. I would take the hitter that will at least give you a competitive at bat.
  7. Larnach is still going to give a better AB than Caratini.
  8. I don't want to see Topa, but why is he even here if he can't pitch in the late innings. If he can't pitch in high leverage bring back Klein or Fundy.
  9. I think I would rather have Larnach up here instead of Caratini.
  10. What was wrong with the throw. Lewis had to make an off balance throw because of the short hop, not every throw will be right in the chest.
  11. It's hard to do a bullpen game when you don't have a bullpen
  12. He will be down there at least for two weeks unless there is another injury, which would not be surprising the way the season is going.
  13. I wasn't referring to you saying Fundy is the problem, I meant the Twins organization. I get your point about usage but I think Rojas will be the one getting the bulk innings after Morris. And I am not sure Banda will be available or would I want him to be.
  14. Funderburk has 15 walks and HBP in 16 innings, Banda has 13 in 16 innings with an ERA over 8. But sure let's say Funderburk is the problem.
  15. So we get to keep seeing Banda run out there. Options can not be the only criteria they use to make moves. Give me a reason to watch, I do not want to keep watching the washed up 30 somethings that are contributing nothing.
  16. Who did we walk off, and I thought Morris has been pitching out of the bullpen for a couple of weeks.
  17. Exactly, this was my whole issue with Falvey, he thought he was the smartest one in the room. And it doesn't look like this is going to change with Zoll.
  18. It has been interesting to hear about the drills that Sizemore has put him thru and the work they do before games. This was my frustration with Rocco, it seemed he let the players dictate how they prepared but that is what you have coaches for. Especially ones with major league experience, they know what it takes to be successful and can help others learn that as well.
  19. Well Kriedler is in St. Paul, so as long as we keep him there that is one problem solved.
  20. And yet Lewis has had two balls hit to the right side tonight. Maybe he's starting to figure it out, let's hope.
  21. Shelton was Falvey's hire, you would never have gotten a big name manager making big money to take the job even if you tried. The biggest thing the Pohlads are guilty of is not getting rid of Falvey last fall.
