    We don't want to see you with you're shirt off.

    He's Canadian!!!!! Or do you disown your French ancestry?
  3. diehardtwinsfan
    Then how do you explain Morneau?

    Math alert: That sums up twitter in less than 140 characters.
  5. diehardtwinsfan
    very positively

    You guys are going to make Chitown's head explode.
  7. diehardtwinsfan
    I thought you Canadians preferred the three letter dipthongs.
  8. diehardtwinsfan
    I'm going with B.

    I know the ERA looks nice, but I find it really tough to get excited about Jorge. He's striking out 6.4/9IP in AA, and while he's young, we aren't talking as young as Gonsalves or Romero. I do think that Jorge and Gonsalves (in particular) should be headed to Rochester in the next week or two, but other than 40 man adds at the end of the year, I don't see either in MN other than that September cup of coffee.

    ah yes, amish crack...
  11. diehardtwinsfan
    I seriously don't know what to think about this team...
  12. diehardtwinsfan
    I'm going to go out on a limb and say there might be a moderator forcing that one.

    Nothing quite like setting Gibson up for success.
  14. diehardtwinsfan
    now that I think about it... is there a Twins pitching affect that works kind of like park affect?
  15. diehardtwinsfan
    This is Merica. We don't do crazy metric numbers and don't you be touching our dates

    Kolton Kendrick has an OPS of 2.100 and a four figure ISO... I think we need to expect that out of him every day...

    I do hope they have enough cash to bring this kid in. That's usually what those HS picks are for after round 10. Grab a few and see which one(s) will jump on board for whatever cash you have left.

    love the article... guessing since they used a tendon in his knee that this was the reconstruction and not the repair (which means longer recovery?)... Where's Heezy when you need him?
  19. diehardtwinsfan
    I kind of assumed this time at Etown was more to get him acclimated to using wood bats before he makes the jump to a much tougher league. Pretty sure DH allows for that.
  20. diehardtwinsfan
    Interesting info. That said, in our case there's plenty of 40 man chaff that can be let go... but I can see a scenario where this makes sense. I'm sure the player won't mind getting major league pay (and back pay) along with a crack at FA quite a bit sooner.

    I still do not get push for Granite. I certainly understand the need for a bench bat, but that is the least of this team's problems right now. We need relievers and starters, and Granite cannot help in either of those capacities. If he replaces a pitcher, that just makes that problem worse. If he replaces a hitter, he's likely a downgrade.

    I think the bigger issue is the cost to get someone, especially in July. This team is a pretender. They are playing meaningful ball in late June, which of itself is a God send, but we all see the writing on the wall and don't see the point in paying a lot of prospect talent for someone who will ultimately not help the team... now that said, this needs to be addressed this offseason.
  23. diehardtwinsfan
    I think that says a lot about the evolution of baseball thought... you're seeing more and more dead pull guys.
  24. diehardtwinsfan
    I'm pretty excited for Hildenberger. I got to meet him at ST in 2016. He is a nice guy. I hope the Twins give both him and Busenitz a reasonably long leash at this point, as both of shown in AAA that they are ready for a taste.
  25. diehardtwinsfan
    The real question is how many innings will he get. I'm setting the over and under 1.1
