    If only there were a way to keep his bat in the big league lineup without having to worry about him learning a new position in the middle of the season at the big league level. Difficult I suppose with Nelson Cruz entrenched in the DH spot.

    everybody wants change but nobody wants change......

    Suggesting Donaldson for Price only works if the Dodgers are interested in such. Guessing they'd not have been.

    Actually the organizational philosophy change occurred when Ryan took over for the second time but few of the players manifested it at the big league level until after he was gone.
  5. dxpavelka
    Ryan's second stint signaled the change in philosophy from "pitch to contact" and hit to the opposite field to power pitching and hitting. Most of the results of those changes came after his departure.

    The only Twin who I stop whatever else I might be doing when he's at the plate since 3.

    "to succeed with his stuff he would have to pitch very well with good command and also not get rattled if there are misplays or cheap hits" would seem to apply to every pitcher. Some do, some don't, some will, some won't. Nobody will every time out.

    You know you're posting this comment on a "fluff" website right? The nice thing about power rankings is that they mean absolutely nothing. You want something to make you feel good about your team? Watch them play. Power rankings will be sorted out in October.

    My guess is AK pulls something on the trip from St. Paul.
  11. dxpavelka
    Unless one of them is going to DH on a somewhat regular basis.......

    The Twins are always rich in potential something. You can't make soup out of potential.

    Coulombe has one fewer appearance and 2/3 fewer IP than Duffey & Pagan. Maybe I'm thinking of a different meaning of "invisible"?

    Don't know but I'm willing to bet that such a move will be fairly quickly followed by the team falling out of contention. The good news is that we DO have a guy with an .059 BA guy waiting in the wings. Of course he's only played five games since July 19.

    If they preferred Sisco more I'd have thought they'd have brought him up. More likely that it becomes a 4 man OF than Kepler becoming 4th OF.
  16. dxpavelka
    And some say I'm negative.....
  17. dxpavelka
    Facts are a hard thing to ignore.

    So the cavalry consists of a SS who might take half a decade to become as good as the current guy, a 3B who might be as good as the current guy, or might not, and a guy who along with Arraez will give us two no power no glove guys. Trying to be positive here but struggling to do so.

    I saw Nolan Ryan live once in my lifetime. 1985 All Star Game. Back then starting pitchers actually got to bat in the game. Saw him take the three ugliest swings of a stick I've ever seen. Nuff for me.
  20. dxpavelka
    Robot players would then be the logical next step.
  21. dxpavelka
    There's 58 seconds I won't get back.
  22. dxpavelka
    Sure. But then look at the "box" that is supposed to represent the strike zone and then read the rule book for the definition of what the strike zone is actually supposed to be....
  23. dxpavelka
    Also important to point out that when they had a chance to get Correa they found and escape hatch from what they owed Donaldson.
  24. dxpavelka
    You can't have a taxi SQUAD without a taxi DRIVER
  25. dxpavelka
    yes
