    Gibby.vs. Chief in the battle of come backers...... Nice job!

    !I think maybe the Twins should hit Rosario third or fourth- he's been so clutch! (Sure- next time he'll hit into DP)

    Gibby is really on a roll tonight! Awesome!

    Hey guys, there are few guarantees in life. Mr. Meyer was never a sure thing, and he might still be fine pitcher. I don't know if he ever was projected a be a No. 1, and that is why the word "project" is in the English language. I think Jose Berrios might be the stud everyone is looking for. He doesn't miss as many bats as Meyer, but he also doesn't walk people. Relax everyone.......the cupboard isn't bare!

    "Oswaldo Arcia needs something." Best comment, best analysis, best observation EVER!!! Love him, BTW!

    I've always been a Mauer supporter, and have oftentimes wondered why anyone would pitch to him with the game on the line. I have been concerned, however, with the "line drive" statistic. The home run he hit on Wednesday was the hardest hit ball I remember him hitting in over a month! When he's on, he'll have 4 AB's with 4 rockets. I realize no one can do that all the time, but it seems like those rockets have been missing for several weeks. Anyone agree?

    Thanks for the information on the age factor with regard to call ups, Seth and Jokin. I had no idea that this was considered! Maybe some of us will understand this when we complain about prospects advancing!

    In scenarios 2&3, who gets demoted?

    An absolutely terrific article by Jesse Lund at SBN today talks about bringing up Josmil Pinto with the demotion of Kennys Vargas. Early in spring training, Pinto was thought to be the leading candidate to be Kurt Suzuki's backup at catcher. Three successive blows to Pinto's noggin from Adam Jones bat took care of that thought quickly! The backup job then landed to the 'versatile' hard-hitting Chris Herrmann, he of the robust .156 average. Now, I agree that there is no doubt a 'ship load' of information that we fans are not privy to. But while some players, no matter how poorly they perform or how little they project to the future( see Bernier, Doug and Duensing, Brian) seem to be favorites of the manager and FO,others (Pinto and Hicks, Aaron) seem to have an uphill mountain to climb. Nevertheless, there eventually has to be a time when you put the best players on the field so your team has the greatest chance to be successful. Some of us feel that Mr. Pinto has the upside to be a very serviceable player, while others feel he is a liability, a poor defensive catcher with no chance to help any major league team. With Vargas gone for at least 10 days, wouldn't it be nice to finally find out if Pinto fits with the 2015 squad? Friday seems like the right time to give this kid an extended chance-what do you think?

    I think I have figured out why these moves were made today after the game: Ryan and Mollie were both embarrassed by the 11-3 loss, and realized that the poor TD fans had nothing to do on a stormy, Sunday night, so they figured "let's make a crazy, ridiculous transaction so everyone will forget how sh**** we looked today!"
  17. curt1965
    Tough choice, but have to vote for Trey. He has absolutely been raking, and wonder what his potential is. As a 33rd round draft pick, I imagine his road to success is quite a bit tougher.

    If I was a betting man.....
  19. curt1965
    Roger that.
  20. curt1965
    How many hits has May given up ahead 0-2 in the count?
  21. curt1965
    Not a good AB for Joe........
  22. curt1965
    Watch us get shut out, but I love this lineup. Young guys at the bottom with speed. Probably the best outfield defensive lineup so far this year. Put Arcia in RF, Santana back at SS, and Hunter at DH, and lookout!
  23. curt1965
    Wish someone who knows (Seth?) would give us the answer to Hick's defensive ability. "I" remember him as a great CF! I can remember 2 games in which he robbed someone of a home run. I thought he had a cannon of an arm. Would someone please give us the real scoop?
  24. curt1965
    Me too. Love me some Berrios!
  25. curt1965
    Max Kepler!
