    Complaining we didn't keep a guy who played with heart. Get used to it. Correa and Urshela are the only guys on this year's team that do and will probably both be gone next year too.
  2. dxpavelka
    I'm focusing on heart. You know, that thing that can't be measured but is sorely missing on this squad. And actually, your guy Gio might be the one that actually does have it. Probably why he'll likely be elsewhere next year.

    Interesting that Eddie Rosario's in Atlanta and Nick Gordon is the only one of the dozen left fielders we've used since he left that's on your list.
  4. dxpavelka
    The only way one of these guys ends up here is if Correa agrees to something in the 5 year $180 to $210 million range. VERY unlikely.
  5. dxpavelka
    Those stats are from a very small sample size and Kiriloff can't stay healthy. Not to mention one of the other two will probably regress a bit.

    On the one hand everyone commenting on here is willing to let Sano walk and on the other hand our lack of hitting is what has pushed to two games down in the standings...
  7. dxpavelka
    Every damn time I hear this team described as lifeless and lacking heart the words "eddie rosario" come to mind.

    Sano will contribute in the post-season. Laugh. I don't care. Baseball's a funny game. Stuff happens every October that nobody saw coming. You heard it hear first.

    75 RBI or 75 RBIs?

    dxpavelka commented on Greglw3's blog entry in Greg Allen

    On this Twins team, this year, 75 is a number that may not matter. Let's try this again and use the number 71.

    Surprised he found a Buxton jersey that fit.
  12. dxpavelka
    Because salary caps aren't capitalism.
  13. dxpavelka
    It won't not be the fans.
  14. dxpavelka
    I know draft position doesn't count for as much in baseball as in football and basketball but it's gotta count for something. From 2012 to 2015 we drafted 2, 4, 5 & 6. We've got Buxton & Gordon to show for that and it took Gordon 7 years to reach the big leagues. The only thing the current regime has to show for their first round picks are 136 games of an injured Larnach with 12 home runs and a .226 batting average and Sonny Gray. They have developed some pitching but nothing of a high end nature. Disappointing to say the least.
  15. dxpavelka
    It's gonna be the players or the fans that pay for it. You decide.
  16. dxpavelka
    Farm system rankings are very subjective. I've seen our ranked in the middle and I've seen it ranked top 10.
  17. dxpavelka
    Maybe the 71 Orioles. But nobody after the first four starters won more than six games.
  18. dxpavelka
    Never happened in the history of baseball.
  19. dxpavelka
    Would not be the least bit surprised to see him back and contributing in the post-season. Baseball's a funny game sometimes. Sometimes you've to expect the unexpected.
  20. dxpavelka
    Perfectly willing to see the ''real" Correa show up in October.
  21. dxpavelka
    To be fair, Carew was a singles hitter and Sano is more of a power guy and Harmon's dead.
  22. dxpavelka
    He could still resurface in the post-season. We know Kiriloff won't.
  23. dxpavelka
    OR he could be just another guy who won't hit at the big league level.
  24. dxpavelka
    Actually I'd say the prospect pool is fairly similar now to what it was then. The difference has been the performance of the major league team--at least until the playoffs. Of course I would be remiss to fail to mention that a good portion of the on field performance of the big league club can be attributed to folks brought on board by the previous regime. Just sayin. What will truly be interesting going forward is what impact changes to the draft and minor league systems will have on prospect pools of the various teams.
  25. dxpavelka
    I wouldn't claim him but if nobody else does and they end up letting him go in 10 days I'd certainly consider it. 10 days is a long time. Hard to imagine Larnach or Kiriloff won't suffer another injury by then--even if they're not playing.
