I simply do not understand why Molitor would send Lynn out for the 7th. Anyone, ANYone, could see that was a really poor idea. I mean, I bet LYNN wondered why the **** he was going back out there.
There aren't many better options. Those two need to hit. Sano's K rate is just out of control. Hopefully he gets that under control I'm actually not that worried about Morrison. I think he'll be about what we expected.
Y'know, I get enough grief around here about my age, I really don't need it from anywhere else, but such is life. I called the incontinence hotline just now, and they asked me if I could please hold.
Van found the FA market verrrrry depressed this winter, and we got him signed cheaply a week or so before opening day. Of course, one gets what one pays for.

If Berrios is just about the best possible development to start the season, this is well down the list toward the bottom. There isn't room for the Twins to lose an OFer for any length of time, or even one to play poorly. There's no plan B. Let's hope this has resolved fully in 10 days.
It's still lazy. No mention of the 29-1 K-BB rate. No mention he was very good last year. Of course he won't have a sub 2 ERA, so there'll be "regression." It's still a lazy answer, or more likely an inability to come to grips with his previous negative stance on Berrios.
