    Sigh...... Gibby is back. Can't wait!!1!
  2. Vanimal46
    This is too bad... But makes a lot of sense after watching his start yesterday. He was throwing beach balls right down broadway, and couldn't command his off-speed stuff.

    I'm going to break in the new couch today by watching the Twins and trying not to die from a hangover!

    The ads really, really want me to fly to Branson, MO.

    So let's say you order new furniture.... Is it normal to expect the company to pick up and discard your existing furniture?

    It sounds like this could have been preventable, which is the worst.... The family believes he didn't know what he was doing as a result of taking too much Ativan... Prescription drugs are a scary thing.

    I don't know.... because we want society to evolve?

    The icing on the cake is he blamed it on being competitive and frustrated.... And my favorite cop-out line, "it's a part of the game"

    It's a tough choice, but I think I would roll the dice on Greene. Wright is a nice consolation prize, and what do I know? From all I've read, and KLAW's quotes above, he's got a prototypical SP body and a good attitude. If he's a hard worker like Berrios, I'll certainly be rooting for the kid to succeed.
  10. Vanimal46
    After reading the other KLAW thread on here, McKay certainly seems like the boring pick... Especially if he's now only topping out in the low 90's on his fastball. Wright or Greene and I'll be a happy guy.
  11. Vanimal46
    I haven't followed this as closely as others here, but McKay at 1:1 sounds disappointing to me.

    Did I miss something in regards to Gibson? He's getting called up again?

    Chris Cornell passed away last night... He was 52 years old
  15. Vanimal46
    Haley is another subject in itself.... 89 MPH with minimal control of his pitches by the 2nd time in the batting order? I don't understand why he's worth protecting on the 25 man roster.
  16. Vanimal46
    Melotakis or Burdi is an easy call up IMO. I've said this before in other threads and will continue beating this drum. Relievers don't need x amount of innings at A, AA, and AAA in order to be "ready" for the majors. Ride with the hot hands and get rid of struggling relievers.

    Nice!

    Still bitter about Little Falls knocking out the hockey team I was on in the state tournament...
  19. Vanimal46
    Hate to say it, but I think I'd go with AAAA filler or a bullpen game on Saturday. Much like Berrios earlier this year, Gibson has goals to accomplish in AAA before getting the call to Minnesota again. I doubt he's accomplished those goals in 2 starts.
  20. Vanimal46
    I agree with you definition of an ace. And through May 16th this season, Erv can be described as such. Another huge piece to truly being called an ace IMO is doing all of those things for several years in a row. That's where Erv falls short....
  21. Vanimal46
    If you have to ask the question whether someone is an ace, he's probably not an ace. Nothing wrong with it, as I believe there are only ~5 true ACES out there in baseball. Staff leader is a good term to describe Erv. He's been lights out and a good signing for this team.
  22. Vanimal46
    Not a lot of chatter about this show on here.... But once again, they're hitting it out of the park for season 3.

    Counterpoint: Since not all visits the Fangraphs thread, The Ringer put out this article today: "Twins Fans, It's OK to Freak Out Over Jose Berrios"
  24. Vanimal46
    Whoever is making the decision, it's a good one. They know the weakness is finding 5 competent starters... Might as well use the off-days to their advantage and use the 4 best pitchers available at the time.

    Fresh off the presses at The Ringer. "Twins Fans, It's OK to Freak Out Over Jose Berrios"
