  1. I really like Rosario and with his speed and arm he absolutely should turn into a good defensive outfielder, but for the love of God he needs to work on his routes to the ball.
  2. Yeah my bad, the 90-day period refers to the player being active. I got a little confused by a tweet I saw.
  3. Molitor had Graham pitch in a bandbox in a key spot despite all the evidence in the world that he is not ready for those situations. edit: never mind to the rule-5 draft stuff, I'm dumb : )
  4. I hate to be pessimistic, but I 100% agree with Nick. It's too late this year, but hoping Perkins regains form next year, deal him at the break when his value is highest. If we expect to contend in the next few years, we simply cannot rely on a guy who, despite his talent, has routinely proven incapable of standing up to the 162-game slate. And regarding Gibson, he needs to stop trying to locate every damn pitch and just trust his stuff. This year it feels like he's behind on almost every batter.
  5. I don't want to complain about balls and strikes with a 4-0 lead now, but that last pitch to Sano was at least 2 or 3 inches outside. That sucks because garbage calls that like aren't helping his K numbers.
  6. I'm torn on Meyer going to the AFL. On the one hand, he definitely needs the work, but on the other hand I think the more rest he gets, the better, especially if he is returned to a starter's role next year. Also, what would happen if he does go and gets lit up?
  7. I've been lurking on Twinsdaily for almost 2 years now, and I just signed up today to vote on this poll (I suppose there was no reason to sign up or vote on polls when they were terrible). Quite frankly, what most of the people here have been saying is absolutely true: This was a bad move. I would say it reeked of desperation, but when you go out and get a league-average reliever, your desperation levels are either out of whack or your perception of how to manage things is. Wu might be years off and he might not impress the majority of scouts despite his stellar numbers, but I don't think anyone can argue that giving up the #20 prospect in one of baseball's best farm systems (and his #20 ranking is so low because the guys in the big leagues like Sano & Buxton are still listed) plus another power arm in an organization bereft of them to get someone who will be in all likelihood only a somewhat noticeable improvement over the calvalry of bums we normally trot out of the pen is a god damn travesty. I've always understood Ryan's conservatism and kind of shook my head in a 1950's black&white tv show sort of way, but now, in 2015, when the team is exceeding expectations and is on the road to long-term success, you absolutely cannot make such a stupid deal. This has gone beyond the precedent of conservatism--it's now a precedent of ineptitude. Get a new GM asap.
