    Well, that's one way to describe Brandon Kintzler...
  2. Vanimal46
    I assume so. Just saw the note this morning that the 1st round pick is protected since the Twins are a bottom 10 team.

    I wouldn't call signing Joey Bats a contending move... It would be a strategic move for the team if he continues to mash at Target Field, and flip him to a contender in July.
  4. Vanimal46
    Also, Jose Bautista related: His career numbers at Target Field: 21 games played, .349/.429/.895 (1.324 OPS!!) 14 HR 23 RBI It may be a pipe dream, but I'd call him up today to see if he wants to rebuild his value with the Twins.

    Doesn't appear that the contending teams want to give up the 1st round pick to sign him. BUT, a bottom feeding team like the Twins? Why the heck not is right! Even in a down year he still managed a .817 OPS. There's room for him here.

    Our old friend Chris Collabello is now a free agent.... Another interesting note I read on MLB Trade Rumors.... Ken Rosenthal explained if Jose Bautista signed with a team that had a bottom 10 record, they wouldn't have to give up a 1st round pick. I'm back on board to signing Joey Bats... More bat flips please!!

    I'm glad the Twins are moving on from acquiring anyone with a pulse that can throw over 95 MPH... They could find someone throwing 115 MPH, but if they can't locate the pitch, then it provides little value for the pitcher.

    Don't let the trolls know that.... It will blow their mind. Wasn't it Coca-Cola's doing that Santa wore a red suit too? So it could match their logo?
  9. Vanimal46
    Anonymous trolls are going crazy on the internet?! You don't say.... Honestly, this should be a story we read, think "Well that's nice" and move on...

    Fun fact: Pedro Florimon's career OPS in the minors is .681 - MLB OPS is .558. Vielma's career OPS is .636. Vielma better be the next Ozzie Smith to make up for that lack of hitting.
  11. Vanimal46
    Not sure if you're watching or not.... If you are, could you give us the cliff notes from the interview?
  12. Vanimal46
    I feel the same way. Agree with the names on the list.... Just disappointed that a majority of them are multiple years away.

    Rich Hill signs with Dodgers for 3 years, $48 million.

    37 year old Rich Hill re-signs with the Dodgers for 3 years, $48 million.

    You could probably eat what I did for lunch today.... A big bowl of chicken enchilada soup!
  16. Vanimal46
    Maybe Falvey wants a couple of his former Cleveland prospects back from the Yankees.... Luis Severino would be high on my list of Yankees players to acquire.
  17. Vanimal46
    No Child Left Behind was a really dumb initiative... I remember being bored out of my mind a lot of times attending public high school. Lessons and topics would be slowed down or repeated if not enough people caught on to the concept. That and standardized tests were a huge waste of time.

    Closer Mark Melancon signed with the San Francisco Giants for 4 years, $62 million.
  19. Vanimal46
    Closer Mark Melancon signs with the San Francisco Giants. Deal is reportedly 4 years, $62 million.

    The Vanimal is on the prowl again for a new team? Call him up!!

    Happy Monday! Today is National Sacher Torte Day! You may be asking yourself what is Sacher Torte? Well, my friends, it is layers of rich, chocolate sponge cake, apricot jam in between the layers of cake, and topped with chocolate icing! Sounds like something I would certainly try! Today is also International Ninja Day! So feel free to go practice your ninja moves out in the garage. Maybe slice up some fruit with a samurai sword.... The world is your oyster today! On this day in 1933, people could pop the cork on their alcoholic beverages... Because the prohibition ended! We really should ask Chief what life was like in the prohibition days....

    So we watched the Shut Up and Dance episode this weekend. Good god that is a mind bleep.... That takes the cake as the best episode in the series.
  23. Vanimal46
    Ross is an intriguing name for sure. Just not familiar with the rehab process after TOS surgery to know if it's worth the gamble.
  24. Vanimal46
    Not the biggest Escobar fan, but he can be a serviceable SS for next season. Ideally I think he's better suited for a utility IF role. If Dozier is traded, I'd like to look outside the organization for SS depth. Zack Cozart is a name being thrown around on other forums. Erick Aybar maybe. Or look to trade for someone else.
  25. Vanimal46
    There's all these rumors out there that the Nationals are interested in acquiring both Sale and McCutchen. Along with being involved in both Melancon and Jansen for the open closer role. Are they coming to the conclusion that they won't be able to afford Harper and are trying to go for it right now?
