    I'm skeptical Romero is even close to ready at this point...
  2. Vanimal46
    Probably. I just want the pitcher with the highest ceiling... Their MLB ETA should be the last thing on their scouting report to focus on. I'm very skeptical when people say Wright, for example, could reach the majors by 2018.

    Excellent intro!

    Soooo, who takes over Hughes' spot in the rotation if he moves to the bullpen? Even though he's been smoke and mirrors so far, he's still light years better than Gibson this season.
  5. Vanimal46
    And it will more or less settle any dispute between the FO and Molly... Since Molly wanted Wimmers on the MLB team out of ST. I'm more than fine with calling up the fringe 40 man players first so they can make a final decision whether to hold them or fold them.

    That's too bad if this is the last season of the show... I agree with others on here that this season is not the best. It's been a slow burn up to this point. Haven't watched this week's episode yet, but planning on it tonight.

    Ugh... Another lost season for a Twins RP prospect.
  8. Vanimal46
    The Angels have 2 MLB players, and the Twins only have 1 (!!!!!!) The Twins lost ANOTHER trade! http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m8oa1wxBd91r44jtbo1_1280.jpg

    Is Craig Breslow available the next couple of days? He's wile e. enough of a veteran to pull this off.
  10. Vanimal46
    HYPOTHETICAL: Let's say you're Randy Rosario.. Maybe you'll have a good career. Maybe you'll only pitch 5 innings total in the majors. Would you groove a pitch to Pujols in order to be on his highlight reel for the 600th HR? Also, in this scenario, the bases are empty, and the Twins are up 27-0.

    Piggybacking off of Craig's suggestion that now may be the time to offer a subscription to remove the ads for good... As someone who spends an unhealthy amount of time on this site, I would certainly put my money where my mouth is to remove the auto-play, auto-sound ads, and ads that redirect you to spam sites. How many members would have to buy-in to have a similar subscription fee to Fangraphs ($50 a year)?
  12. Vanimal46
    I concur with Craig... Maybe that idea needs a thread of its own.
  13. Vanimal46
    Little did we know they have a couple of Billion Dollar arms on staff! Impressive!
  14. Vanimal46
    There's so many little things to point out in that monster HR clip... Lidge immediately knows he messed up and goes down to his knees devastated. The Astros catcher immediately asks for a new game ball and runs out to calm down Lidge. Frankly, what on Earth could he have said in that moment to make Lidge not feel an inch tall? The crowd was going wild and after that moon shot, you could hear a pin drop.
  15. Vanimal46
    That's true. Targeting a single rental is similar to 2015 and won't get them over the hump. This thread I'm sure is the first of many potential pitchers to target throughout the season... My game plan would be: - Find a SP (aiming high -- #3-ish guy) - 2 bullpen arms If it can't be done, then you could convince me to do a 180 and trade off a couple of veterans...
  16. Vanimal46
    I don't really care that Wimmers and Rosario are the first ones on the list to call up. As long as there's a very long list of people to shuffle through during the season. And they can finally cross some people off the list this season instead of hoping for something in the future that's not there.
  17. Vanimal46
    So Trout is getting all of the praise these days for being the best player on the planet... BUT, how quickly we forget that not too long ago, Albert Pujols was literally the perfect baseball player for the first 10 years of his career. His stats were unbelievably consistent where his lowest BA was .299 (his 10th full season) 30+ HRs and 100+ RBI every year. I'll always remember when he broke Brad Lidge psychologically for years because of this monster bomb... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Fntuc9cmy4

    You may also see Wile E. on the streets as your local Uber driver... That dude knows how to GRIND for his cash!
  19. Vanimal46
    Little known fact about Wile E. Coyote...He's actually the person who's behind all of the "I made $67k last month working from home! Click on the link below to learn about the secrets of making a TON of money from home!" posts you see on every comment section ever. It's a pretty lucrative gig!
  20. Vanimal46
    Correct. All they really have to worry about is the Central. Cleveland's pitching is feeling that WS hangover, Detroit is nothing special, and the other 2 teams could lose 100 games.
  21. Vanimal46
    At this point he's hurting the team more than helping... And isn't that his job as the middle reliever? To have ~60-70 appearances, pitch 70+ innings, with a reasonable (3-4) ERA?
  22. Vanimal46
    Not ready to throw up the white flag yet... Houston is a great team. Maybe even the best team in baseball record wise when it's all said and done.
  23. Vanimal46
    Figured I would beat Dave to this... He should have been sent down weeks ago. Something is broken with him this year. Keep him in Rochester for 15+ appearances until they can figure out what's wrong with him.
  24. Vanimal46
    He's been terrible.
  25. Vanimal46
    Probably similar, if not worse, than 2016 Jose Berrios. The dude's not ready, and probably won't be ready for 12-18 months.
