  1. Disagree strongly with your take. If they're making moves in April designed to tank the season, then they hired the wrong people to run a front office. Molitor's contract is over at the end of the season. No reason to conspire against him in order to hire a different manager.
  2. Tonkin is my choice to go. He's been the low man on the depth chart for over a year now. Molitor doesn't trust him pitching anything other than low leverage innings.
  3. Sorry not sorry for missing the Buxton bashing on here... Yikes.
  4. Crazy bread from Little Caesars... Not that bad! The pizza.... As Chi would say, ick.
  5. I'd hate to pass on a player because of bonus demands... If Greene is the guy, don't low ball him and pony up to get the best player. Especially if they think he has star potential.
  6. I'm with Loosey and others on the thread. Draft this guy and don't think twice about it.
  7. Pictured: Derek Falvey sleeping on August 1, 2017 if Erv keeps it up until the trade deadline. http://mrwgifs.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/Huell-Babineaux-Sleeping-On-The-Money-In-Breaking-Bad_408x408.jpg
  8. It would be interesting to learn how the new regime measures Berrios' success. Having a great stat line has never been the issue in AAA.... When I hear about measuring strike rate, "pitch to contact" enters my mind... Berrios has too good of stuff to be a pitch to contact player. Do they measure him by how accurate he's hitting his spots during an at bat? Since catchers do set up for a low and away slider to get a batter chasing for example....
  9. Is Del Rosario pictured in the article? Wirey is right... Somebody donate a steak to that man!
  10. As do I, Bark. I'm not ready to give up after 4 games. Also, maybe we have to look at him differently for this year. He made 2 highlight reel catches tonight.... does that make up for a lack of offense? So far I'd say so.
  11. A run!!!! Yes!!!!! I'm so positive right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  12. If only Phil Hughes wore white and black pinstripes....
  13. Hughes owes Buxton a few beers tonight. Jesus he's getting crushed.
  14. Very! It's been years since I had Green Mill... They don't have a presence in the south.
  15. It's really boring, isn't it?! It must be mentally draining to be a Dodgers fan...
  16. The one game I paid attention to it looks like he lost the leg kick again.... He needs to find a method and stick to it.
  17. It's almost like ST doesn't matter... Weird!
  18. I hope the FO dictates the battle between Vielma and Gordon for SS playing time. Vielma from all we've read is the better fielding SS right now, but long term Gordon is the better prospect. I'd like to read about Gordon starting at SS the majority of the season. Potential wins be damned.
  19. I'm not hoping they lose baseball games either. Literally a week ago the concensus on this site was this is a ~75 win team. So if that's the case, what good is it to have Erv Santana doing well on a 75 win team? He can provide real value in a trade getting MLB ready players in return. And the Twins get out before Santana's end of career decline. If they are above .500 and sniff a wild card on July 30, **** it and go for it. Until that happens I'm operating under the assumption that this is a non playoff 75 win team.
