Rocco is making some inexplicable decisions.
-
You have to PH Adrianza here.
-
We all know we're scoring 3 runs here, right? OK. Just checking.
-
He can join the all-time team with Mark Lemke and Adam Kennedy.
-
Blyleven would have drilled him multiple times by now.
-
I'm OK with him giving the public "all is well" spiel if he's keeping guys accountable behind the scenes. I'm not convinced he is.
-
He is. But as our 3rd or 4th reliever making $5 million bucks, I'd gladly take him back. Wouldn't you?
-
I'm starting to feel the same way about Rocco I did about Gardy: Let him manage the regular season. Bring in TK for the play-offs.
-
I mean Castro can't hit either, but Garver is not right. And god forbid something happen and Adrianza has to catch. What more could really go wrong?
-
Why is Romo throwing a 2nd inning when Duffy and May are rested and available?
-
Honestly, if Garver's as hurt as he appears, Astudillo should have been catching. Or least available as an option at 1B
-
I'm on the fence on Sano too. Could we get a high-end starter for each?
-
I enjoyed your last bomba as a Twin Eddie.
-
I feel like Rocco "rewarded" Kepler and Gibson by giving them spots when he shouldn't have.
-
Polanco and Arreaz are not intimidated by the Yankees. Kepler and Garver are hurt. Cruz seems to have hit a wall. Eddie is Eddie.
-
Honestly, that was our chance to break the curse. Kill the monkey. Slay the dragon. Then Ervin $%% the bed.
-
Cannot. Catch. A. Break.
-
Ballgame. Season.
-
16 years of make-ups? Hmm, my MN Sports math, that's about right. We're still paying for the Gophers final four run in 1997 too. And here I thought sucking for most of the 90's and contraction were enough to make up for it.
-
Son of $%%. Is it really too much to ask that the sports God's for a break at least once?
-
Close Sano. Get 'er done.
-
It certainly seems that Kepler, Cron and Gibson should not be on the DS roster. None of them are healthy enough to contribute in a meaningful way. Wade, Astudillo and Perez may not be great, but at least they are fully functional.
-
Playing the Yankees feels like the Gophers playing at Wisconsin in basketball. Most of the time they're better then you. But even on the occasions that you have a shot, the refs will give them every 50/50 call and a few that aren't even 50/50. It's like playing 6 on 5.

Line-up 3B: Arreaz 2B: Polanco DH: Cruz RF: Kepler 1B: Sano LF: Gonzalez C: Garver CF: Buxton SS: Gordon Bench: Astudillo, Adrianza, Billy Hamilton, Wade or Cave Starters Cole (5 years/$175 million) Syndergaard (trade a package of Rosario, Balazovic +) Berrios Pineda (1 year with option) Dobnak/Graterol/Smeltzer Bullpen: Rogers Duffy May Romo (re-sign 1 year) Littell Stashak Lefty FA Dobnak/Graterol/Smeltzer/Thorpe Total payroll $130-$135 million I think this improves the IF defense at all spots except 1B. If Gordon flops and/or Kierloff is ready, Gonzalez moves to 3B and Polanco/Arreaz go back to SS and 2B and Kierloff/Wade/Cave take LF.
-
Yeah...I'd have preferred to shake it up a bit. At least put Arreaz in the lead-off spot and drop Rosario down a bit.
