    FTFY.

    Ah...the "nice guy offensive." I remember it well.

    Made it up there last year for a couple. All the stadiums are in the Phoenix metro area, and all of them are really nice, they use spring training stadiums and they're all mostly pretty new. I plan on taking in 3 games Oct 9-11, in case anyone's thinking of attending...you might want to avoid those dates. Of course, Ashburyjohn will be there as well, so you might want to put up with me being there in order to get the benefit of John's witty banter. Or is it banty witter? Whatever.

    My theory, which is still a work in progress, I admit, as that it all boils down to the difficulty of turning "Josmil" into something which ends in "-see."

    Make it look easy, Eduardo.

    We were under full scale hell and damnation watch for like three days. Literally, schools cancelled and everything. As of this moment, which is right in the middle of what was forcast to be the worst of it, we've gotten about a quarter inch of drizzle off and on over the past 24 hours. Right now the sun is breaking through. pffft.

    Pinto didn't get a start against the White Sox. Fryer did, though. BTW...where are you watching the game?

    Do you know what "ebola" is, in Spanish? "Ebola."

    Camp? This one time, at band camp... As to Pinto, it would be a lot easier to buy Gardy's "integrity of the game" excuse if he had found a way to play Pinto at catcher in the White Sox series just this past weekend, which, if I'm not mistaken, even included a doubleheader, pretty much necessitating Suzuki take a seat at least once.

    I doubt there's one chance in ten Meyer starts in the rotation out of spring training next year no matter if the Twins add zero starters. As for your question, only one of the five names in your list is there due to merit...it seems to me the better question is which of the other four shouldn't get bumped?
  15. USAFChief
    Right back atcha...it doesn't have to be one or the other. Improve the rotation, and find a LFer.

    I've mentioned Latos before as someone with enormous upside who might be available this winter. I think this is a realistic target and someone I hope Ryan takes a real shot at. They're not going to sign any of the top FA's, and I can't see the internal options being enough to turn 2015 around.

    Quietly having a very nice second half for Pittsburgh. With all the handwringing and gnashing of teeth over the Twins lack of top notch starting pitching, it still boggles my mind how anyone could have been in favor of letting Liriano out of the organization. It would have cost less to sign him than it cost to sign Nolasco.
  18. USAFChief
    Held back from what?
  19. USAFChief
    According to fangraphs, 2012 and 2013, 4 seam FB average velo, 95.2 2014, 4 seam FB, 93.4 His slider is off about 1 MPH, too. Hopefully, he gets the lost velocity back next year. To me, that makes a big difference for him. He was at 92 on the TV gun tonight, FWIW.

    I seriously thought about calling a walk off infield hit, too.
  21. USAFChief
    Winnah!
  22. USAFChief
    I'm making a call. Walk off balk.
  23. USAFChief
    I know Plouffsie isn't the fastest guy, but do we really need to pinch run for him while he's on the bench?
  24. USAFChief
    Nice decision by the center fielder.
  25. USAFChief
    No, but he WAS in the ballpark. This $#!( didn't happen when he was in Rochester. I'm not sayin...I'm just sayin.
