    Brock, you're actually pretty close with the Royals. They were going to clean house in 2013, but stayed the course. Better times are just around the corner.
  2. howieramone2
    The one thing our favorite team can do fairly quickly, is improve the defense. I would move Brooks Sano to full time DH, trade Parks, and Pinto Arcia. There was a lot of interest in Parks during free agency, and he has a team friendly contract. We should be able to get a modest return. Assuming good defense is still valued, you can't have players like Pinto and Arcia on the squad. Fix the defense by the trade deadline, then concentrate on the main event, which is revamping the stating rotation.

    No one will convince me it was.
  4. howieramone2
    Two All-Stars would make this team a contender. Certainly it would forestall the need for any type of massive rebuild activity which is what I originally responded to.
  5. howieramone2
    Yes they would.
  6. howieramone2
    I've got nothing better to do, demonstrate it to me.
  7. howieramone2
    Who was the last Twins starting catcher who wasn't an All-Star sometime in their career? Giving up on Murphy this early is silly.
  8. howieramone2
    Actually, all it will take is for Sano and Buxton to play up to their potential.
  9. howieramone2
    If TR decides to get back into it in 2016, he will need to trade the most valuable commodity in baseball, which is young starting pitching. Berrios or Duffey, Stewart or Jay, Gonsalves or Thorpe. You are not going to get future board favorites, for current board scapegoats.
  10. howieramone2
    Anyway you could come up with the name of the individual who screwed up in 2010? The board is running out of scapegoats.
  11. howieramone2
    Target Field would become a parking lot.
  12. howieramone2
    Or 2 of the top 8 anyway.
  13. howieramone2
    Our favorite team would like Sano to be one of the faces of the organization over time. Why would they have him embarrass himself over the next year or so by putting up 20-25 errors? This board is running out of dead horses to beat IMHO.
  14. howieramone2
    Buxton will do better than Zach Jones, Pinto, Sano at 3B, May as a starter, or any of the decline phase NL relievers the board lusted for.
  15. howieramone2
    Maybe even fall off the toilet.
  16. howieramone2
    Put me down for lack of hitting.
  17. howieramone2
    Actually. the pitching has been good. Who would you get rid of?
  18. howieramone2
    You will see the ballboys or ballgirls play 3B before Sano.
  19. howieramone2
    Our favorite team will be contenders this year, and the next 6 or so no sweat. It's too bad baseball isn't like Dancing With the Stars, where the fans get to vote.
  20. howieramone2
    Sounds like a myth to me. It's not that challenging to put a negative spin on any move whatsoever.
  21. howieramone2
    Having depth is the opposite of painting oneself into a corner. If a spot becomes available, most likely they will have multiple choices. Too many major league ready pitchers is a good thing. As TR always says, these things have a way of working themselves out.
  22. howieramone2
    SSS
  23. howieramone2
    Of course winning games in 2016 is the top priority. They did not ignore the bullpen in the offseason, they just didn't do what you wanted them to. The bullpen will be much improved this season due to our depth and by 2017, I wouldn't doubt we have power arms to deal. I would be very surprised if our favorite team ever signs any additional decline phase pitchers in free agency.
  24. howieramone2
    May was an option, he just wasn't the winner.
  25. howieramone2
    Mike, one or two doesn't add up to most.
