    Vargas sighting
  2. diehardtwinsfan
    Bad at bat for Buxton
  3. diehardtwinsfan
    Yeah, I think this offense has a real shot at scoring 800 runs
  4. diehardtwinsfan
    Plouffe!!!!!
  5. diehardtwinsfan
    . I still think he is best served starting in Rochester
  6. diehardtwinsfan
    to be fair to Ricky. He looked much better in the second
  7. diehardtwinsfan
    Buxton!
  8. diehardtwinsfan
    . I'll start liking him if he blows up against the white sox
  9. diehardtwinsfan
    Nolasco isn't looking good. On the flip side, I think the offense will score a lot of runs this year

    Posting from my phone. Someone else will have to post lineups. Nice day to be at the ballpark.

    Got to see a few of these guys in camp today. ABW is a pretty nice guy. He mentioned that it sounds like he'll be starting in AAA. Not sure if that's what he heard from his bosses or just his own speculation (though it's pretty reasonable).
  12. diehardtwinsfan
    . It was a no doubter
  13. diehardtwinsfan
    Mauer and sano with back to back doubles
  14. diehardtwinsfan
    PARK!!!!
  15. diehardtwinsfan
    depends on where you are at
  16. diehardtwinsfan
    Gorgeous day at the park today

    Worst pitching in the league might have had something to do with it.... and lest we forget, Nolasco wasn't exactly a bad option the year we signed him. I'm not liking Nolasco right now, but I think we tend to get a bit revisionist in our history here. It wasn't a good signing based on the results, but it was one of the better FA options out there. There's a reason he got twice as much as Hughes did. This also gets into one of my big beefs with the idea that we just need to go out and sign a guy. When you commit 48 million to a player over 4 years, said player doesn't get cut if he doesn't perform. That's a reality with baseball that I think fans tend to forget.

    people are talking about Buxton as a sure thing to head north. I suspect that he's in AAA and Sweeney heads north in his place. Arcia and Santana are locks as far as I'd guess.
  19. diehardtwinsfan
    Hmmm... I'll look you up on Saturday.
  20. diehardtwinsfan
    I think Kohl Stewart looks like he's 12 in that photo.
  21. diehardtwinsfan
    I'd note that pitchers usually pick up a tick or two over the course of the season, so if Hughes is sitting in the 89-91 range right now, he's probably fine.
  22. diehardtwinsfan
    I suspect Buxton and Berrios both spend a lot of time in AAA this season. In Buxton's case, he needs to show something to send to the majors, and in Berrios's case, there's no room for him short of a late call up for BP duty (this assumes of course that no trades/cuts are made). Park on the other hand, I'll be surprised if he doesn't go north with the team. On that note though, does he have 3 options in that contract should he need AAA seasoning?
  23. diehardtwinsfan
    yeah, if they can reduce TJ surgeries, that would be a huge boon.
  24. diehardtwinsfan
    He needs to be. He was a break out pick last year and had a season that most would rather forget. Granted, there was an injury here, but hopefully he's realized that he has a much better chance of making the team if he's playing a good all around game. The real question is going to be who sits if Arcia earns a spot. Sano won't be sitting. Do they move Rosario to CF, or do they finally trade Plouffe?
  25. diehardtwinsfan
    BTW, that was mostly tongue in cheek... but yeah, pretty much every day.
