  1. To be fair [ and if my recollection is worth a crap ] Buxton, Berrios, Chargois, Kepler were brought up because of need and not an actual judgement of their readiness for the MLB. I think that can be said for all of the MiLB'ers that were brought up this year, with the exception of Buxton. And that move still puzzles me because there was no backup plan in sight, except for super-sub Danny Santana. Last players called up and became stars? Mauer, hell yeah. Perkins, eventually, after the move to bullpen. I'm leary of these list and MiLB rankings, overall. Not a criticism of those who create them. Maybe it's just me getting over excited and calling for them to be brought up immediately. Like Buxton.
  2. I was in and out of watching the game, but caught all the fun parts. And Nolasco's typical nutty. Great Win!
  3. shoulda been a butt-crack warning on this one...........
  4. A not good fielding Arcia is acceptable. A not good fielding AND not hitting Arcia is not. It's a mystery to me why he's still on the roster. Edit: change last line to "why is he not in the MiLB honing his craft"
  5. There will be much singing and dancing! As Dozier keeps moving up towards his career BA [ .239 ] he will be safe. Park: for what was paid to him, you don't farm him out this quickly. Buxton is looking a lot better this time around. I would really hesitate to send him down just yet. Grossman may be sliding back to earth. Or this is a short down-spell like Mauer had. I'd like to see a faster person in LF than Grossman, but the lineup with him, Buxton and Kepler in RF is much better than what the Twins have had this season. I'd really like a bench that starts with Nunez and Santana. Nunez, of course, will be in the starting lineup for the foreseeable future. To me, Arcia is the guy to go. Maybe he'll end up hitting and fielding better elsewhere. But this is no David Ortiz situation.
  6. i was just thinking Kepler could use a pick-me-up
  7. Oh my. Am I reading correctly?? Home Run for Kepler??
  8. I just read that. Me no understand....
  9. Tonkin following Abad. I like the setup
  10. MLB.com shows Nunez just walked on 11 pitches on my TV, he just got to the plate......
  11. Coming up next, postgame comments from Paul Molitor. Molitor: I quit.
  12. Never seems to be the same thing, either. Which brings me back to my question months ago: What the hell were they doing in Spring Training??
  13. On my service, Ortiz just hit into a double play....
  14. http://www.azquotes.com/picture-quotes/quote-a-little-snark-properly-directed-can-change-the-world-shannon-hale-41-72-28.jpg
  15. Dick & Bert just getting to Neil Ramirez. 3rd team in one year. Jepsen replacement?
  16. pull Dean NOW! ok, cool. They've been leaving these young pitchers too long.
