    Berrios IS our best pitcher. If you trade your best player and you get better, he wasn't your best player.
  2. dxpavelka
    You don't get better when your best players are playing for other teams.
  3. dxpavelka
    This is what happens when you don't give up on a talented player too soon---David Ortiz.
  4. dxpavelka
    It's almost like the guy who kept this type of thing from happening for the last half decade will be in the other dugout tomorrow night.
  5. dxpavelka
    He had BETTER be the savior. Or SOMEONE had better be. If not, it's going to look a lot like something is missing with the year's group. Something that can't be measured. Heart. Miles and miles of heart. Almost as if someone whose value to the team could never be measured in measurable things is no longer here. Someone in another comment mentioned that we need a spark. If only we some guy who for half a decade always seemed to be around to provide that spark when we most needed it were here to provide it.

    um, cuz, nothing gets won in April
  7. dxpavelka
    If he'd hit in the spring he might be here. Expecting a kid who doesn't hit in the spring to make the big league club in April is ridiculous.
  8. dxpavelka
    Last year was a fairly small sample size as well.
  9. dxpavelka
    Rocco's made it pretty obvious that he doesn't necessarily believe in the closer concept. However, if he does, I wish he'd send his starter out there for "one more" as much as he does his de facto closer.
  10. dxpavelka
    I'm excited to see him but willing to let him get a big league hit or two before I go overboard with the superlatives.
  11. dxpavelka
    Good. Send him to US Bank Stadium.
  12. dxpavelka
    I don't care if Cave is the best defender on the planet in left. If they have to use him it won't be enough.
  13. dxpavelka
    That's nice. Too bad. Nobody cares.
  14. dxpavelka
    And I think letting him go was a mistake of epic proportions as well.
  15. dxpavelka
    Still the most entertaining hitter this team has had in decades.
  16. dxpavelka
    Hindsight is 20/20. There wasn't a fan in this state who disagreed with the Donaldson move a year ago, yourself included.
  17. dxpavelka
    Sure. If the goal is to NOT be competitive.
  18. dxpavelka
    With Simmons most likely headed for a bottom of the order spot in the lineup, the Twins need to replace the middle of the order bat left behind by Eddie Rosario and (potentially) Nelson Cruz still has yet to be addressed. COULD also bring back Eddie. Younger, maybe cheaper AND was our leading run producer each of the last 4 years.
  19. dxpavelka
    Teams don't trade top starters for for 2nd basemen.
  20. dxpavelka
    May well end up with the White Sox merely as a preemptive strike to cripple our lineup. I know I'm gonna get a bunch of rubes jumping on here and telling me that RBIs are a flawed stat but if Nelly walks, 30% of our run production from last year will be playing elsewhere in 2021 and the only thing flawed is likely to be our lineup.
  21. dxpavelka
    no
  22. dxpavelka
    Ronald Torreyes
  23. dxpavelka
    How about we bring back three man post season rotations? Nobody wants to see 4th and 5th starters or bullpen days in the playoffs.
  24. dxpavelka
    Agree that we MIGHT be overstating our OF bounty. Especially if we trade Eddie. Trading Eddie likely puts us right back to having to rely on a .221 hitter as the 4th OF. I know many are not enthralled with Eddie's defensive prowess but I'm also not sure that throwing a guy with less than 10 professional games in LF is the answer to that. Keep Eddie and include Kirilloff in a 4 man OF rotation with each guy getting about 120 starts. IF Kirilloff knocks the doors off then you think about moving Eddie at the trade deadline.
  25. dxpavelka
    He's already gonna be a Twin for six of those seven years. Extending him now would just be throwing away the money that so many have seemed so concerned about paying Rosario. I'd at least like to see him get a big league hit before pulling the trigger.
