Justin Upton to the Twins?
Cap'n Piranha replied to AlwaysinModeration's topic in Minnesota Twins Talk
We need to define the terms though--when we say backup CF, do we mean a guy who can play in CF max 1x a week to give Buck a rest? If so, Kepler and Gordon are perfectly acceptable. If by backup we mean a guy that can handle the position daily if Buxton is out for 10 days on the IL, then Celestino is the only option anywhere close to big league ready. That said, Upton doesn't change any of that, so if the Twins sign him, it is at the expense of PAs for Kiriloff, Kepler, Sanchez, and Sano. I don't think I'd rather have Upton getting PAs over any of those guys, all of whom have at least some upside that Upton does not, particularly when you consider that the Angels would rather pay Upton not to hit for them. -
Buxton, Correa, Polanco 1 for 11 (a single), leaving 9 on base. Not gonna win many games like that. Pitching was a little unsteady, but ultimately good enough to win.
-
Incorrect, there were 4 pitches in Sano's plate appearance.
-
As I think about it, I actually think Rocco should have left Urshela in. Clearly, Urshela would have gotten on for Sanchez to hit a game winning HR, mirroring what happened in the Bronx.
-
Concur--Arraez needs to DH 3x, 2B 1x, and 3B 1x, at a bare minimum.
-
Come on now Bocaton--get a hold of one.
-
Are you familiar with the term "jinx"?
-
And scoring the winning run was Twins legend IKF. The Twins say "You're Welcome" to the Yankees.
-
Probably getting on base.
-
Seems like the game is putting some posters to sleep.

Ah, so your wife is the one who imposed the MNCAADO! And lucky you, you get to be Mr. MNCAADO!
-
If it's over the weekend, does it still count as a work event? Shouldn't it be more like Mandatory Non-mandatory Corporately-planned Appropriate Amount of Diversion Occurrence (MNCAADO for short, or Mancado).
-
Seems like this is our best path to the AL Central crown Step one; tread water until the ChiSox have to put their entire 26 man roster on the IL. Step two, profit.
-
Welp.
-
So much for the Perfect Game. I can't believe the Twins traded Cruz for a guy with a WHIP of 3.
-
I once participated in a cake walk--I did not win a cake. As such, I hope today is indeed not a cake walk for the Twins.
-
Nothing like a super exciting challenge to determine if the Mariners should get a runner on first to start the season.

Clothes?

Danny just called Eugenio Suarez "A-Hoo-Nuh-Way". We're off to a flying start.
-
Did we win yet?

Game is Tied 0-0, Top of the 1st. This has been your Circus Boy update.

Korn: Blind. Specifically when Jonathan Davis screams "Are you Ready?!?"
