    SHOULD be MLB ready by now and yet by all accounts are NOT.
  2. dxpavelka
    Hopefully SWR's 6.79 plays better at the big league level than in the International League.
  3. dxpavelka
    Obviously their opinion differs from yours.
  4. dxpavelka
    Trading Berrios precipitated the need for the Mahle trade, which precipitated the need for the Pablo Lopez trade.

    They haven't won it yet and if you haven't won, you've lost.
  6. dxpavelka
    "Easily replaceable" players would have been gone long ago.

    Congrats. Your hindsight is 20/20.

    Nick Senzel might be a name to watch. Can play 3B or any of the outfield spots, including CF adequately and hits the snot out of left handed pitching, something which I've heard a time or two (thousand) on this very website is a need for this team. Price might not be prohibitive since he's not a pitcher. Might be a great year for the Twins to zig (seek bats) when everyone else zags (seeks arms).

    Call me crazy but I like to keep track of HIT rate.
  10. dxpavelka
    Might be a fine addition to our plethora of ultra talented superstar type left fielders.

    The day I'd rather see Vasquez at the plate than Buxton, in any situation, is the day I turn in my fan card.
  12. dxpavelka
    tough to prove it on the mound when you only pitch 32 innings and only accumulate 12 saves. Cano has more innings pitched, a better ERA and a better WAR. Part of the reason Jansen gets in is because he has more saves.
  13. dxpavelka
    DON'T want a .193 hitter.

    I said all off season that they basically did nothing to improve the offense. Correa was here last year so that's a wash. Vasquez' only redeeming quality is that he's not Omar Narvaez. Gallo? Please! Don't try to justify a guy whose batting average is below the Mendoza line. Farmer? I know it wasn't an actual trade but he basically replaced Gio Urshella. It was NOT a clear win. Solano? C'mon. Quit lying to yourself. Makes you look as stupid as when you were gushing about guys like Jake Cave & Kyle Garlick. At the end of the day, they took a team that scored fewer than 700 runs last year and turned it into a team that will almost certainly score fewer than 700 runs this year with better pitching. ONE team wins the World Series each year. The other 29 had better be entertaining. This one is not.
  15. dxpavelka
    And who on this team has?
  16. dxpavelka
    And we're not lining up Hall of Famers (or All Stars) to replace him. Take a look at our last few season with and without him in the lineup.
  17. dxpavelka
    A pitcher can't be the heartbeat but if we hadn't made that trade we'd be screaming for a similar pitcher now.
  18. dxpavelka
    Twins haven't had a "heartbeat" since Rosario, Cruz & Sano left town.

    I CAN'T DIDN'T YOU READ WHAT I WROTE? BASICALLY ALL THE WORST PARTS OF THE BIBLE. DOGS & CATS LIVING TOGETHER. A HOLOCAUST OF MANKIND. WE MAY INSTANTLY BECOME BLOOD & FLAMES. GOD HAS GIVEN US MANY MORE REASONS TO KILL EACH OTHER THAN TO TURN THE OTHER CHEEK. IF A NEW STRUCTURE IS TO RISE IT MUST BE BUILT FROM THE BOTTOM NOT ON TOP OF WHAT HAS COME BEFORE. THE POETS WILL REST, THE SONNETS WILL BE SILENT, WORDS OF LOVE WILL NOT BE SPOKEN. A STORM SHALL ROLL OVER US AND TAKE THOSE THAT ARE NOT PREPARED. THE TOILET IS FULL. DEATH RIDING A PALE HORSE. SIX HUNDRED SIXTY-SIX MORTICIANS. THIS IS SERIOUS STUFF. HELP ME. SCREAM FROM THE ROOFTOPS.
  20. dxpavelka
    Lots of folks act like batting average is not important. Including, seemingly, unfortunately, the ones that run the local nine.
  21. dxpavelka
    OMG. THIS TEAM IS TERRIBLE. A GAME UNDER .500 ON JULY 1. NO TEAM HAS EVER COME FROM SO FAR DOWN AND WON A WORLD SERIES. NO TEAM HAS EVER OVERCAME A ONE GAME LEAD IN THEIR DIVISION ON JULY 1 TO WIN EITHER THEIR DIVISION, THEIR LEAGUE OR THE WORLD SERIES. THIS TEAM IS TERRIBLE. EVERY PLAYER ON THE ROSTER HAS UNDER PERFORMED THE EXPECTATIONS WE HAD FOR THEM COMING INTO THE SEASON. THEY ALL MUST BE RELEASED OR TRADED IMMEDIATELY. WE HAVE 26 GUYS IN THE MINORS WHO WOULD WIN THIS DIVISION BY A COUPLE DOZEN GAMES. THE MANAGER, ALL THE COACHES AND THE ENTIRE FRONT OFFICE AND SCOUTING DEPARTMENT MUST BE FIRED IMMEDIATELY. WOE IS US. THE SKY IS FALLING.
  22. dxpavelka
    Yeah, cuz MY second guessing and rehashing is what's creating the sour taste.
  23. dxpavelka
    Moved on from Rosario with no adequate replacement ready. And now we can't hit. Wonder why? Eddie would be tied for the Twins lead in Home Runs & RBI and two points of the pace in BA.
  24. dxpavelka
    How good were the Twins last year with Arraez? Or the year before?
  25. dxpavelka
    So MUCH traces back to trading away Berrios. Tyler Mahle trade was made because we needed to plug the hole left when we traded Berrios. Didn't work out which precipitated the Arraez trade. Can probably factor the Sonny Gray trade in this mess too. Have never replaced Rosario either. I hate to keep harping on these two moves (actually, no I don't because SO much of the mess from the last two plus seasons traces back to them) but all the discussion in the world of the current state of affairs gets you nowhere if we ignore these two moves.
