  1. It's that tricky "IP" part giving him trouble.
  2. A good team and Cashner's taking a shower by now.
  3. Yup...and nice job of lollygagging by Gomez in CF until he saw the ball get past the infield.
  4. Sano's got an arm. big league play right there.
  5. There's a strong argument to be made to see if he'd accept a 3 yr deal, IMO. Where are the Twins going to get 7 better starters than him over the next 3 years. Enough with "rebuild." Let's put players on the field who can win. Santiago is a major league starter. Not a star, but good enough to be in the rotation of a winning team.
  6. There shouldn't be ANY suspensions over this.
  7. I'd have went with "nobody asked you."
  8. English only. 'merica.
  9. DaveW's Bans/Suspensions - 1.5 kab21's Bans/Suspensions - 0.5 Seems like easy money to me. Over. Way over. Book it.
  10. Santiago has actually been more "meh" than "mediocre" for the majority of his big league career, if you ask me.
  11. I'll take Hughes over Gibson every day, personally. Hughes knows where the pitch is going, and knows how to manage a game.
  12. My two cents: There was nothing wrong with Machado's slide. MLB has already ruled on what is, and isn't reckless or dangerous or malicious regarding take out slides. His slide met none of the definitions. And I sure as **** don't want baseball to eliminate the take out slide. Throwing at someone above the shoulders should result in immediate and severe suspension. There's no excuse for that in this instance, or any other. That said...Settling on field disputes with a fastball planted in someone's arse has been and should continue to be how these things are harmlessly diffused. These are grown men, playing a zero sum game, and ownership of the diamond is one way those sums get divvied up. And owning the inside corner has always been a battle between pitcher and hitter. We need to be careful not to upset that balance.
  13. Not like Springsteen?? To each his own I guess. I don't understand, but then I think Jimmie Hendrix is massively overrated, so what do I know.
  14. I guess I'm on the Santiago bandwagon. I was pretty confident he was one of the Twins best 5 starters going into 2017. Top 3, actually. What would not signing him have accomplished?
  15. Exactly. We all hate us. We're Minnesota.
  16. Y'know...now that I think of it, Springsteen lyrics are ALL about the Twins pitching staff: Gibson: "...another runner in the night." staff ERA: "All that heaven will allow." "Glory Days" = Every Twin high school pitcher drafted since 1961 I could go on, but it's pretty clear, no? Springsteen is a closet Twins fan.
  17. It's still an 8 man pen, but they are down to a 12 man staff. Otherwise...concur.
  18. O'Rourke to the 60 day DL is possible.
