  1. That's assuming those guys are available, but yes. That's still a short list of rested options if you can call it that.
  2. And what does Paulie do tomorrow if Berrios struggles? His pen is still spent because he didn't use his fresh arms until it was too late.
  3. If that's all Molitor is going to use, what's the difference?
  4. Pitchforks and torches are coming out again!
  5. It's sprinkling again...better roll the tarp back out!
  6. Me neither, that was a joke. I was reading this thread as they were rolling the tarp out without any fear of my phone getting wet.
  7. No doubt. It's rained for 30 seconds multiple times. Nothing has changed on the radar. Just a waste of time really.
  8. As I sit here at Target Field during the dumbest rain delay ever, all I can say is that was a tremendous waste of time. It basically stopped raining before they even had the tarp out.
  9. (Puts pitchforks and torches away)
  10. Using aging, ineffective players to try to compete was a hallmark of the old regime. If this team is to actually move forward, it needs to see what it does have in deserving younger players. If that means they flame out this season, so be it. You don't know what holes you need to fill long term unless you see what you already have.
  11. And I get that. I'm willing to roll with a Duffy spot start, or even a Tepesch start though. Bullpen arms are more plentiful than starters, no doubt. I'm in no way in favor of Duffy starting again, but I'm willing to go that route in the short term even though it would be a shorter start. I understand that this probably does make the most sense for a team trying to complete, but I've had enough of older ineffective players eating opportunities of younger players for a team that should be finding out what they have. I see that happening here and I'm not a fan of it. I'm just trying to think outside the box a bit.
  12. I get what you're saying, and I don't​ disagree, but Gibson should also be discussed. Either move him to the pen or send him down. He's done nothing to warrant the call up or to remain with the big league squad. I'm still very much on this team evaluating players this season rather than trying to win a division, right or wrong.
  13. While I agree with this and it definitely makes sense, you've got to wonder how much of a leash Gibson has. I know schedule has an impact, but I'd say Gibson has done nothing to deserve getting called back up or to stay up.
  14. I would disagree that he has, but I'm far from sold in either direction. I'd still like to see him playing almost every day. I know he played more recently, but I don't really think he's been given much of a fair extended audition. Unless someone else is pushing to replace him, he should still be up here as far as I'm concerned.
  15. I get the circumstances, but is Vargas ever going to get a real chance to show this team what he's got? My God...
  16. 98 mph 95 pitches and with a devestation slider to go with it. Just doesn't seem fair.
  17. Lull the opponent into believing that you're incompetent. Works every time.
  18. Missed it by that much. - Maxwell Smart
  19. What's the opposite of en fuego?
  20. That slider is just plain filthy. Fun to watch really. I just wish the Twins weren't the "beneficiary" of it.
  21. I propose that when we get bad Pressly, we call it a Fat Elvis outing.
  22. I think he's just who regressing to who he is. I'm not sure "worry" is really the right word.
  23. You were kinda right...just for the wrong team.
