    Good organization decision... Sucks for Kennys. How far does his pay decrease with this news?
  2. Vanimal46
    You are AWESOME for putting together that document! Thanks a bunch!

    I'd love to see Dubnyk find a hot streak. He still gives up too many softies for my liking. The depth is good. Someone else besides Staal and Zucker need to step up to consistently score goals. Maybe that guy is Nino.

    I don't doubt it. Their pitching, specifically SP, is brutal. They sacrificed everything, including the farm, for that title in 2015. Now it's going to be a loooong road to respectability for our friends down I-35.

    If anyone predicted Staal would be a 40 goal scorer again it's a lie. They're pretty much a middle of the pack playoff team. If they get matched up against Nashville or Winnipeg, I think it'll be a quick exit. If it's against Vegas, there's a chance! The recipe doesn't change in the NHL. Hot goaltending and grinding out close games. Dubnyk hasn't shown yet that he's a Stanley Cup caliber goalie.

    That's his best bet, and I hope he can do so. He can make much more than the league minimum salary, and be a folk hero with his power.

    Is that official Hughes is going to the DL?
  8. Vanimal46
    I'm not concerned with Buxton. He kept switching back and forth from leg kick to no leg kick. Now that he knows what works, he should be ready for takeoff.

    The prizes are tongue firmly in cheek... But, since you volunteered, you better enter the contest so you have a chance to eat your own cookies!

    Does anyone have tips on leash training? I'm luring him with treats lately but even that doesn't work if he doesn't want to go in that direction.

    Sometimes you need to toss up a softball to get the game thread juices flowing!

    Sounds like I'm skipping 40% of Twins starters until Erv comes back. Then it will only be 20% of Twins starters!
  16. Vanimal46
    Do they have local beers on tap at the stadium? Or your typical Bud/Miller Lite?
  17. Vanimal46
    I have Verizon. No idea if the provider has something to do with it or not. The ads covering the comment bubble started happening to me yesterday.
  18. Vanimal46
    That's fair to say. Grossman had a better minor league track record compared to LaMarre (.770 OPS vs. .714 OPS) Still, there wasn't anything to indicate he'd be an .800+ OPS player and he did just that in 2016. I agree with you on seeing a need for a middle IF over a 5th OF. We'll see if there's someone intriguing enough to pick up.
  19. Vanimal46
    The ad makes you want to stop and think, hmm, do they know something that I don't?

    The ads have been covering the comment bubble on mobile...

    How many cute ST stories are sticking on the 25 man for Cleveland, New York, Boston, Seattle, and LA? Obviously I'm not down there every day to see the adjustments he's made, and if it's legit or a fluke. If they found a 5th OF out of no where, more power to them. As a stat geek, there's nothing in his past history that suggests he'll be a successful MLB player IMO.
  22. Vanimal46
    Who's being bumped from the 40 man for LaMarre?
  23. Vanimal46
    This is probably going to read in a negative way.... I'm not interested in cute spring training stories. This organization should be beyond that point. If LaMarre can make an impact better than other players, great! There's nothing in his past history that indicates he'll be better than Grossman or the other bench players.
  24. Vanimal46
    Ah, yeah I misunderstood. I thought the poster meant the context changed in regards to his chance to play more.
  25. Vanimal46
    Both the Twins and Reds tried doing exactly that. He'll be put on waivers again shortly.
