  1. However, after today..........
  2. Just don't be surprised if it ends up not being sustained. A zebra doesn't change his stripes.
  3. The strikeouts will always be there too. The "league" will be just fine with him hitting singles.
  4. Lets get over a 23 game sample size and remember what the 2300 at bat sample size looks like.
  5. He MIGHT miss out on breaking the team strikeout record--IF he misses enough games. '
  6. Funny how folks think ERA is no longer a valid stat unless they think it's gonna win them an argument. Berrios was better last year than any Twins starter not named Joe Ryan. End of story.
  7. He would have been our second best starter last year and would be in the rotation this year whether you like it or not.
  8. I assume you mean an OPS over .800 rather than HITTING over .800 which would typically mean batting average. If he merely hit over .800 he'd be worth $111 Million. F YOUR I, I spent most of the off-season prior to the Arraez trade shouting from the rooftops on this and other sites calling for the trade and pointing out that he won a batting title last year with an OPS UNDER .800 and how difficult that was to do. D.J. LeMahieu won a title with only 10 home runs and his OPS was over j1.000
  9. That's my whole point. NOBOBY on this roster is producing. I've said all spring that they did nothing to improve the offense. They scored less than 700 runs last year and are pacing even less this year.
  10. Would probably be willing to bet $11 Million that he doesn't end up with a 1.000 OPS.....
  11. What Berrios has or hasn't done in Toronto has no bearing on what he would or wouldn't have done here.
  12. Not angry at all. Just leery of some fans who blindly buy in to every move the front office makes. Yes, I know Berrios didn't seem to do much in Toronto last year but he would have been one of our top two starters. Could have made a difference for us last year. He'd still be part of our rotation this year and deservedly so. AND we might not have had to make the Mahle trade last year and we still might have a guy who IS producing at the big league level. And, yes, I agree that 22 is young for a pitcher but when that pitcher was a a big piece in a major trade at 19, 22 is not that young anymore. Not only do I think the fan base too easily buy into some moves it almost feels like some are based on what the FO reads on some of these websites. I constantly harp on moving on from Rosario. I'm 60 years old and old enough to remember when a front office in these parts would have been LAMBASTED for moving on from a guy who got MVP votes in his last two years here to save $8 Million. And, yes I know the move was made to make room for Kirilloff & Larnach. That has not panned out at all. Bottom line, I don't think that having an expectation to get some production within two years when you move the best starting pitcher you have developed in a generation is unreasonable.
  13. so you want to get me started on the primary part of the trade.... no expectation for immediate return but SOME return would be nice. can't have an SWR discussion without the trade being part of it. sorry
  14. ZERO return.
  15. He's been developing for half a decade. We still have ZERO return on the deal.
  16. Cuz we're pushing two years out on the Berrios trade and still have ZERO return on it????
  17. Still suffering from the fact that Kiriloff & Larnach have not delivered on the promise that precipitated the release of Rosario.
  18. Philadelphia fan complaints about their team: Trea Turner one home run, Nick Castellanos none. J.T. Realmuto K/BB: 21/2; Bryson Stott 18/1. Jake Cave getting regular playing time.
  19. If you expected him to do what he's doing you shouldn't be surprised.
  20. Gallo & Sano have the EXACT SAME career on base percentage. But don't let facts get in the way of whatever point you're trying to make.
  21. He's hit .250 once in his lifetime which was his only time over .223, I'll take the under. Under on the top 30 hitter as well.
  22. Some of those offensive number will improve. Some will also regress. Especially those far outpacing career based expectations.
