  1. I'd love for Parker or another TD writer to discuss the fall of Perez this year. I thought the new cutter was going to save his career. Now, from my untrained eye, teams aren't biting on the cutter anymore.
  2. Not sure what kind of voodoo magic Perez was using in April but he could use some of that again. That option next season doesn't look appealing anymore.
  3. If they're relying on someone who hasn't pitched more than 102 innings in a season to be in the starting rotation we have problems. It's time to admit and plan on him being a bullpen arm.
  4. Meh, it's not like he would play over Sano or Marwin at that position either.
  5. Concur. I also think he's destined for the bullpen. Might as well use the bullets in that electric arm up in Minnesota.
  6. Schoop is good insurance if Arraez hits a wall. It's possible he becomes the odd man out entirely on the playoff roster if the Twins need more flexibility. Overall he fit his role well this season for the team. He was signed as a placeholder until other options hit their way into the equation. Mission accomplished.
  7. He was just DFA'd by Arizona today. He was one of the 20+ relievers the TD writers featured in July at the trade deadline. Now there's an opportunity to acquire him on the cheap.
  8. It's that time of year where I have way too much hope in seeing a good Gophers football team. Like the past 60+ years, QB remains the ultimate question mark... Sounds like Annexstad will be out for the season, so the competition is Murphy vs. 2 true freshman. Looking at the rest of the roster, I don't think I've ever seen this much talent on offense. 3 RBs with 1,000 yard seasons on their resume, 2 very good WRs, and all of the OL returning. Given the schedule this year (No Ohio State, Michigan, Michigan State games) this is their best opportunity in a very long time to make it to the B1G championship game.
  9. Ideally if the Vikes can absorb the cap penalty releasing Treadwell I would do that. As far as getting RB depth too, I'm curious how Jay Ajayi's recovery is going after tearing his ACL last year. He could be cheap insurance for Cook who also hasn't proven he can stay healthy.
  10. I hope Treadwell is a healthy scratch every game this year. I also hope he saved his money because odds are this is his last year he will receive paychecks from an NFL team.
  11. How far can I push mortgage lenders to get the very best offer?
  12. I missed out that season... The first Twins game I went to was in 97 or 98 because I remember Bob Tewksbury throwing beach ball change ups for the Twins.
  13. Joe Panik DFA'd in San Francisco.
  14. Twins and Angels can claim him again if he falls to them. Kennys Vargas dealt with the same DFA battle a couple of years ago before he came back to the Twins AAA team.
  15. Mejia DFA'd again by the Cardinals. Being in DFA purgatory sucks.
  16. Mariners SS Tim Beckham suspended 80 games for PEDs. Gonna be turning 30 next year, only one season at 2 bWAR in 2017. It's over for him, right?
  17. I'm trying to think of the position battles at camp, and not a lot comes to mind. The roster is mostly set. Backup QB - Sloter vs. Browning vs. Mannion. If any of these guys is a starter for more than a game the Vikings season is over anyways. Backup RB - the 3rd round draft pick vs. Abdullah WR #3 - Someone HAS to beat out Treadbust for his snaps. DT #2 - Shamar Stephen vs. ???
  18. Hector Santiago is back in the MLB! The White Sox purchased his contract today.
  19. Yes... But get back here before the street lights come on.
  20. Tell me about it... I had to bite the bullet and sell low to free up cash for a down payment... That was painful.
  21. Gotta promote that New York..... Mets? Game.
  22. Could be. You would think a dangerous hitter like Garver isn't sitting 4 out of the last 5 games...
  23. Aaron Gleeman tweeted about Garver only starting 28 of 54 games since returning from the IL in early June. I don't know why he's not getting the starts at 1B over Adrianza...
