    It will go 4 games if Roberts continues to bench Muncy, Bellinger, and Pederson against lefties. They're getting too cute with their platoon decisions.

    It's not like the program is missing out on another great coach who will turn it around faster. Might as well play this out like every other coach.
  3. Vanimal46
    Why is Roberts continuing to play Hernandez? Ice cold. Good thing Puig is clutch.

    Thank you for taking the time and effort to build this out tvagle!

    'Murica. Land of the free, home of the lawsuit.

    Some fans got sick of Molitor within the first 2 years... Managers are short term, hence what I want from a manager is going to be short term. 1. Fix Buxton and Sano. It is imperative for the organization to do so. 2. Help young players take the next step. Berrios is close to becoming a front line starter... Find someone who will help him make the leap. 3. Someone who can quickly identify what they have and makes quick decisions. Don't let someone toil as a fringe SP if they can be better utilized in the bullpen. 4. Find a way to be competitive immediately.

    Sigh... Dalvin Cook ruled out again. Probably going to remain out until after the bye. Hamstring injuries are a killer for RBs.
  8. Vanimal46
    The depth is there... I hope they use some of that depth to acquire someone who can help the MLB team immediately.

    Great news! Here's to hoping he put the demons behind him.

    One positive development: beer is still good and doesn't need to be boiled to consume.

    It is a trying time for certain... My boss jokingly proposed making a run for vodka and red bull because we're all grumpy without coffee in the morning.
  12. Vanimal46
    I guess the Keurig doesn't heat up the water enough for it to 'boil' and be safe for consumption.
  13. Vanimal46
    It's definitely intriguing and worthy of discussion for sure. I know some want to throw out the baby with the bath water in regards to Buxton... I still believe he's going to get every opportunity to prove himself with the Twins next season. It's nice Kepler can fill in at CF if Buxton falls on his face again. However, I wouldn't let that stop me from exploring trade opportunities. Cave or someone else could fill in for 30-40 starts when Buxton is banged up.

    Without coffee in the office I am basically a dead person walking.

    Don't forget OF Boomer Batts... With a name like that you would think he's a big bodied HR hitter. But he can slap the ball around as hard as Ben Revere.
  16. Vanimal46
    They need water, and they need it now!
  17. Vanimal46
    I guess we'll never know what numbers were discussed while he was with the team. Or if it even progressed to that point. It could be as simple as Falvine asking if he will commit to playing for the team in the future and he didn't accept.
  18. Vanimal46
    I'm guessing it's the latter and he didn't want to be here anymore. He must like Arizona enough where he decided not to pursue free agency. It's not just the Twins who low balled him or missed out.
  19. Vanimal46
    The Twins nor any other team could offer him a contract right now... So I don't know why you say the Twins low balled him.

    Austin issued a water boil order for drinking water today. We've had so much rain over the last month they had to shut down the water treatment plant because debris got caught in the filters. I can say with this minor inconvenience many people in this city would die if a real emergency happened. You would think the world is going to end at the grocery store. People are sticking up on a week's worth of bottled water when the issue will he resolved in a day or 2. Do you have faith in your community to not lose it over a minor inconvenience?
  21. Vanimal46
    Ah, got it. We're not seriously expecting Kepler to play a bunch in CF are we?
  22. Vanimal46
    They don't have to only look internally for a replacement. There are several corner OFs available in free agency.
  23. Vanimal46
    Agreed. This is where the FO needs to make a judgment call. He still has 3 years of control left, which is valuable alone. If they keep him for 2019 and he remains a 95-96 OPS+ player his value is lower in November 2019 than it is right now. I'm not confident he'll take the next step at the plate, hence why I'm beating the drum to trade him with a package of prospects to acquire a difference maker.
  24. Vanimal46
    I love Rhodes but he seems to get banged up every game. Hopefully he was taken out for precautionary reasons because the game was already sealed up.
  25. Vanimal46
    Not sure why they thought a second season was necessary. Have there been any developments on this case since the 1st season?
