  1. Geezzzzz, I remember when the MLB teams rarely had starting pitchers with ERA's over 4....
  2. Gotta wonder how long its gonna take to get the starting pitching up to speed...
  3. Now we're gettin' somewhere! OK, not so much...
  4. http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DOIHQ1As5qY/Ubgu4I73wxI/AAAAAAAAMQU/1Hxp5HLPb5U/s1600/babe.gif
  5. Could really use a big hit by Dozier!
  6. Had them short arms going for him....
  7. I see the Padres asked the Yankees if they'd trade Gleyber Torres for Hand. They said No. So that would be something of a guide for what to offer. OTOH: Scout.com says the Padres are looking for "an "Aroldis Chapman-like" package for the reliever." Clear as mud, eh? At the very least, Hand looks like the real deal. I'd make an offer and see what happens.
  8. Ok, so help me out with this. I saw this on the Strib site earlier today. Are foul poles painted yellow only on the 'fair ball' side?
  9. According to Tom's 'Bullpen Usage' graph, Hildenberger threw 40 pitches in his 1 appearance. So guessing they're giving him extended rest.
  10. Hughes would/should be fitted into the long reliever spot once he get's more inning in. I, too, want to see more of the Twins prospects than some else's rejects.
  11. I like what the brass is doing here.
  12. I'm not so sure any of this matters. His pitch recognition is horrible. Throw Buxton breaking balls outside the strike-zone and he'll swing at it. If he get's close to it, fouls it off, whatever, bust him inside and dump another break ball outside. He will swing and he will miss.
  13. Getting tired of Gibson's "bad luck". Seems like game after game, he has "bad luck". But glad to see Hughes back in the pen and, maybe, adding some stability.
  14. Fantastic! I'm hopeful the Twins are finally done with Gibson and Santiago. Time to replace the mediocre with prospects.
  15. In any discussion on acquiring big league assets, I would think Byron Buxton should absolutely be in play.
  16. To get something meaningful, yeah, Dozier+Gordon is a starting point for "something meaningful +1 or 2".
  17. Nice to see Mejia have a better game. You can definitely call it a better game when he worked his way out of jams. Wasn't that long ago that he'd fall apart. Still needs work, but still trending up. I'll take that! Really, really need legitimate bullpen help. Can't keep running Duffey, Rogers and Kintzler out there every game.
  18. Viscosity? You want to measure how thick and sticky a ballplayer is? That's just sick...
