    IF Dyson is right, the Twins have a decent 7th-8th-9th bullpen with Dyson, Romo and Rogers. Collectively, they won't blow your hair back, but more times than not, they'll get the job done. At least that's what I want to believe.

    They're delicious, is what they are.
  3. Puckett34
    2 out of 4 or better please.
  4. Puckett34
    You heard 'em ladies and gents. Pack it in.

    The Romo deal was sort of unexpected for the timing of it. I'd expect the same from any deal made today. That said, getting pretty anxious here with 75 mins to go.

    I don't think its a question of who has more coveted prospects. Both organizations have plenty. I think its more of a question of who's willing to part with said prospects. 2-3 pitchers today please. Preferrably more of a priority on the bullpen.

    Or meet it in the middle. August 15th deadline

    1) Game 7 1991 WS 2) Game 6 1991 WS 3) Game 163 2009 4) Johan 17K's game 5) Dozier Walkoff vs Detroit 2015 6) Scott Baker 1 hitter 8/31/2007 (3 outs from perfection, probably ranked too high, but remember watching live in college)

    To echo what others have said. I like this trade so long as there are others to follow in the next 3-4 days. Romo is decent enough as a 7-8th inning guy that is probably at minimum marginally better than the 4 recent DFA's, if not significantly better numbers-wise than 2. Now go get Giles and/or Greene, and maybe one of the starters the rumors have the Twins attached to. Then we're in business.

    Got to figure one activation would be Buxton, but Cave down would probably be the corresponding move there. Beyond that, Poppen (meh), Eades (hasn't pitched in a game since 7/11) or Romero (pitched 3 innings last night)? I'd suggest Jake Reed, but his numbers don't look great lately. Maybe they dip into AA, Jax perhaps? Unless there actually is a trade that gets announced within the next few hours. Maybe Colome switches locker rooms.

    If he's the headliner of bullpen additions before 7/31, I'd be disappointed. If he's one of say, 2-3, would feel far better about it.

    Win some, lose some. Go get 'em today. Never like bunting with the Twins best hitter, even if the situation may have called for it. Thought Parker looked better than he had recently. Still not all that good, but better. That said, kinda want to start seeing Harper and Parker switch roles.

    The Twins have a .671 winning percentage currently, they went 70-32 the last 102 games in 2006 for a winning percentage of .686. Roughly the same pace, albeit a smaller sample size. So about every 13 years or so.
  17. Puckett34
    Bullpen as it stands is mediocre as a whole, worse with Rogers on the shelf. But dang no bullpen can overcome 5 errors in 3 innings. That Buxton homer was awesome though
  18. Puckett34
    A couple of those walks were unintentional, intentional walks to Encarnacion to get to Vogelbach. Perez didn't look great, but he certainly looked better than he did in his previous 2 starts. Edit: Whoops, echo chamber in here with the post above me.
  19. Puckett34
    1) Rogers 2) Harper 3a) May 3b) Parker 5) Magill 6) Morin 7) Duffey
  20. Puckett34
    I was told there would be no math
  21. Puckett34
    More of those 9-1 ten game stretches please.
  22. Puckett34
    I'd leave him in the 9th spot for the time being. Small sample, but he is doing well in the 9th spot that some managers consider the 2nd leadoff spot. As others have said, his OBP is still lower than Kepler's, although probably splitting hairs at .338 vs .333, but I digress. If Buxton can get his OBP up, maybe you consider moving him up around the All Star Break. I'd just let him thrive in the 9 spot for the time being. Bigger question maybe is where does Sano hit when he returns? 5th or 6th?
  23. Puckett34
    How many infinity stones does Kimbrel have?? Is that why his original asking price was north of 100 million?
  24. Puckett34
    The North remembers

    Didn't know George RR Martin was a Twins fan!
