  1. Great article! I was just thinking that having Kreidler everyday is the way to go. You get your runs from the other positions. SS and catcher are defensive positions.
  2. Remember that the Twins won two World Series Crowns with Greg Gagne at SS. You want a solid glove first guy at that position. Hitting is a bonus.
  3. Finally MLB gets a female ump and unfortunately she is not Jackie Robinson. Hopefully she ups her game.
  4. I wish him well. He spoke at the TD preseason event last year and struck me as good human being and thoughtful in his responses. Unfortunately, good people sometimes can't get major league hitters out. Best of luck!
  5. He actually was sick in his 4 for4 game so they gave him a day off. Ut will be curious how far up the prospect rankings he goes.
  6. Alfredo Griffin of the Blue Jays stole third on one of those throws.
  7. With a 6 run lead, Topa walks the leadoff man. A rookie does that is one thing, but a veteran major leaguer? You lay one in there and he goes yard...tip your hat, but free passes? Adios Senor Topa.
  8. If Lewis is sent down, and he needs to figure it out at AAA, perhaps Culpepper is ready to next step. We'll probably see Fedko before that happens.
  9. Royce doesn't do slumps. Perhaps this is not a slump and is really who is. I certainly hope not. I have some terrific crow recipes because I've been eating a lot of it lately. Ober and Larnach in particular.
  10. It would sure be nice if the top prospects were performing at a high level to force a change. Culpepper would be a serious upgrade at short and Lee would be an upgrade at second. Fedko couldn't do any worse than the Outman/Wallner/Clemons dynamic trio.
  11. Duran with an oblique injury? That was always the concern with relievers. One would view the trade as a slam dunk if Abel didn't tweak his elbow.
  12. Marek Houston can hit .230 and be an asset if his fielding is first rate. Remember Greg Gagne was a glove first asset to two World Championship. We don't need Arod, we do need Greg Gagne 2.0
  13. While Buxton is an igniter, he has become a non-competive AB with runners in scoring position. With a runner on third and one out, I would rather have Carafini up. And how is the most competitive, most productive hitter not in the line-up everyday? What does Martin have to do to at least get that opportunity versus righties.
  14. The product offensively and defensively at 3B has been better with the Gray/Kreidler combo. Think about that. Brooks Lee ABs all night were very non-competitive. The Culpepper express has cooled a bit, but Brooks needs to hit because the glove is...uh...a bit suspect.
  15. Just when you start to think about cutting loose Outman, he does something good. The same with Wallner. He breaks up the "No-No" and does something Brooks Lee seems incapable of doing: DRAW A WALK!
  16. When was part of a season ticket group at the Dome, if someone was abusive, profane, or overserved we would get security involved. I remember Jim Eisenreich's treatment from, ironically, Boston fans when he was dealing with his tourette's. Heckling is part of the game, but.....
  17. If Outman was coming off a good, productive year at the plate, you give him some time to come around. He is who we thought he was.....Fedko can steal a base as a pinch runner as well.
  18. Duly noted: Wallner and Bell are on pace for 30 HR seasons, we are getting very little production from Buck so far, Carafini ha been solid with men on base. Also (breaking news): starting pitching can carry a team! Haters can go fishing or whatever you do. I'm just really enjoying this ride. "Babe" Fedko is waiting in the wings!
  19. Yesterday I called for sending Brooks down and DFAing Outman. I may have to drag out my crow cook book again. Taste like chicken!
