    The role he can't fill wont be with the Twins, apparently.

    Be afraid. Be very afraid. The Brewers released Manny Margot. I'd imagine Falvey is hearing from Rocco as we speak.

    How *** **** hard is it to understand "keep this thread for actual moves?" There are 47 other threads to discuss the whys and consequences.
  4. USAFChief
    Yes.

    A little lesson on the importance of stolen bases and not striking out. Rocco scoffs

    Gladden... He never answers questions. Today's example: "Can a lefty hitter like Wallner eliminate the 2 seam fastball that a pitcher like this throws to RH hitters?" Gladden. "He threw one there." "Well that was a cutter." Gladden: "Well the 2 seam is where a pitcher pronates his wrist..." ... Dan...ATFQ. Drives me nuts.

    I'm having a hard time putting "essential" and "Brooks Lee" in the same sentence.

    This one's tough. I'll go Denny Hocking
  10. USAFChief
    To be fair, that's also exactly what you've done. "Muscle bound is a myth."

    I expect Rocco to Pinch-IL Correa in the middle months as well.
  12. USAFChief
    Hahahaha. Lee scratched from today's game with lower back tightness.

    I don't even know what point you're attempting to make. Nor have I said anything about Vazquez not being a catcher. I DO know that every reliever in the pen for more than a series WILL pitch important innings with games in doubt.

    Don't drink and run, Van.

    I believe i said Castellano will make the roster. If he's an effective reliever, I hope he stays. If he's not ready to be an effective MLB pitcher, I dont think it's practical for a team trying to contend to hide him in the pen for an entire season. I predict he won't be an effective MLB pitcher. I admit that's a perspective from 2000 miles away.

    Bingo. Starting about a week after finally winning a post season series in 23, it seems to me the Twins have gone out of their way to dampen enthusiasm and optimism. The average Minnesota sports fan right now doesn't have a very high opinion of this franchise.

    1. I'm not wrong. There is no such thing as a low leverage reliever in today's baseball. You prattle on about Jay Jackson while showing he blew 2 games by early May last year. Thanks for proving my point. Every reliever on the roster for more than a series or two will be in close games, multiple times. Every. Reliever. You can call Castellano a mop up guy, that won't make him one. He'll pitch with the game on the line of he stays on the team. If that's the plan, he shouldn't be on the team. 2. I have no idea who said Vazquez isn't a catcher. I doubt anyone did. But if they did, what the heck does that have to do with ANYTHING. As for the OP, Here's a prediction: the Twins will try to keep Castellano, but the plan will crumble before game 30, because its unworkable.. Let's just hope he doesn't cost them more than a game or two before that happens.

    The double earflap and distinctive leg kick made this one pretty obvious, IYAM.
  19. USAFChief
    But someone said "there is always blame?" Other than you, I mean.
  20. USAFChief
    Miranda takes a called strike 3 after swinging at two pitches in the dirt. Against a LHer, no less. And then Lee takes the infamous called strike three NOT looking. Heck of an inning.
  21. USAFChief
    No more silly than the notion there is never blame
  22. USAFChief
    As I understand it, "hamstring" injuries refer to both muscular and/,or tendon issues. Could not tendon injuries result from loads caused by overdeveloped muscles? And do we know which type hamstring injuries Lewis has suffered?
  23. USAFChief
    Color me officially concerned about Lopez
  24. USAFChief
    Let's see some production out of Lopez, if you please.
