    Fernandez has gotten TJ surgery out of the way at least...Berrios has not...just saying we're not usually very lucky in that department
  2. lukeduke1980
    He'd be a decent option for the 7th inning, with Perkins in the 8th and Jepsen in the 9th, right?
  3. lukeduke1980
    I'd think if Buxton or Kepler aren't ready it would be some Santana, some Rosario.
  4. lukeduke1980
    Wow if trading Hicks (for a part time catcher) garners 17 pages of posts what will happen when Plouffe is traded for a AA control-type pitcher no one has heard of?
  5. lukeduke1980
    If Arcia figures something out we'll all be okay with Robinson coming in as late inning defense, and to start against Sale.
  6. lukeduke1980
    Shane Robinson

    It's a fun conversation per usual w/the anti Jobos- I just think back to Escobar's year this year, and how he didn't really settle in at the plate until he was everyday SS. To me it would give Joe (another) excuse for inconsistency.
  8. lukeduke1980
    I would pay many dollars to see Perk and Mauer get into it like these guys did
  9. lukeduke1980
    speaking of Beane, I've wondered if their catcher Vogt could be had, for someone like Kennys Ortiz.
  10. lukeduke1980
    After last night I'd say 6 For 3
  11. lukeduke1980
    I was a little surprised Cotts wasn't brought in, seeing it was the middle of an inning. Definitely would've screamed for May if he would've blown it also though.
  12. lukeduke1980
    Maybe we could call up Jim Bowden
  13. lukeduke1980
    I would slide Player A into the 8 hole in the lineup
  14. lukeduke1980
    Does anyone track whom in the league hits the most 3-hoppers back to the pitcher?
  15. lukeduke1980
    Agreed - if you think someone is worth enough to take up a roster spot for a season they must be worth working out a trade for, to be able to send them down in the chance you'd like to maximize your roster spots. But remember the days when we would have a Rule 5 guy and a 3rd catcher?!

    TR doesn't get it. He did not address the bullpen this offseason save for Blaine Boyer and JR Graham, two examples of TR despondency. We all knew it was an issue. We all saw Casey Fien get exposed last year, and Duensing continue his mediocrity. This was all after watching KC's bullpen in October. Every team we play brings in pitcher after pitcher throwing 95+ trying to miss bats. That's not the TR way though.
  17. lukeduke1980
    I think the Brewers are a good candidate but not for a Blockbuster - Arcia for Will Smith?
  18. lukeduke1980
    I'd say Shane Robinson has some pictures of someone, but I think TR is still basking in his Tommy Millone pickup for Sam Fuld and hopes to recreate it by dealing Robinson...
  19. lukeduke1980
    We will resign Mike Pelfrey. And extend Kevin Jepsen. That's it.
  20. lukeduke1980
    Ortiz's spot is currently reserved by Kennys Vargas
  21. lukeduke1980
    This is Terry Ryan we're talking about. Bowden gets innings 1-3, Graham 4-6.
  22. lukeduke1980
    Can he go into the offseason and work on lateral quickness, do heat yoga or something, and come into camp 2016 ready to compete for starting SS? The guy was an athlete, right?
  23. lukeduke1980
    I think most fans' frustration is that there still seem to be some organization philosophies that we're not interested in, like swinging hard (in case you hit it) and trying to make the opposing batters miss our pitches. We assume they're driven from the TR down
  24. lukeduke1980
    Can Joe play SS?
  25. lukeduke1980
    I do imagine Terry Ryan's 'war room' as him sitting in a rocker, wearing readers and an afghan, reading the sports section from a 2002 pioneer press, and dialing other GMs on a rotary phone. I think that's what other GMs imagine too...
