    Apparently Berrios has yet to allow a hit with a runner on base this season.

    I like the way he thinks. I might have to become an O's fan too!
  3. wsnydes
    It would seem that those guys don't have a major at all...
  4. wsnydes
    Maybe that's a sign that he's finally realizing that he's swinging at the wrong pitches.

    The efficiency that this version of Berrios is exhibiting is impressive.
  6. wsnydes
    Would that even be considered a solo act?
  7. wsnydes
    Seems like an inefficient use of a box big enough for a band.
  8. wsnydes
    Sounds like some mighty sloppy play by the O's so far.

    California math and the math of the rest of the world aren't always the same.

    I don't know. I'm not convinced that Bert would have gotten the math correct.
  11. wsnydes
    But Baltimore was batting!

    I liked this only because of how painfully true it is.

    Best make it extra devious for making you late to post the lineups in the game thread. A guy's gotta have priorities in life.

    I agree, but this team isn't at that point yet and they aren't even close to where the Cubs were when they got Chapman. They need to shore up the pitching for sure, but selling the farm for it this year would be foolhardy in my opinion.

    That's a practical joke that I'd wish were played on me on a daily basis - both when I was a kid and now as an adult. Enjoy the day and the game!

    We're required to document our copies for reimbursable purposes. Our CEO likes to use a red pen for some reason and he's the only one. I switched the ink to blue and when he used it, he laughed, called me an SOB and then threw the pen at me.

    I'm one of those non-believers, but I'm still watching the games and enjoying the ride regardless. I was still watching games in September last year though, so I'm not sure what that really says about me. Either way, winning is still more fun than losing and they are playing cleaner baseball.

    That's just it, it's May. This team might take off and become more legit than anyone could imagine, or they could go in the complete opposite direction. There's a lot of baseball between now and the deadline. Shoring up the rotation or bullpen is a good idea at any point, it's just a matter of the cost.

    I get what you're saying, but they've only got 22 games against those two teams remaining and the Twins record against the rest of the league isn't nearly as good. They're 12-4 against KC and the ChiSox and 11-14 against the rest of the league. I have a hard time believing that this team is legitimate enough against good teams to make a serious push. I'd love to see them in the playoffs, but I'm only willing to give up so much for another first round slaughtering.

    I'm not sure anyone is wanting them to stand pat. They should make moves this season, whether it be now or at the deadline. Standing pat is definitely not the way to go. Those that are still a bit more patient, myself included, see this team as a pretender so trading away prospects doesn't make a lot of sense unless it's the right fit. To us, myself included, trading the veterans with value for younger players that will contribute long term makes more sense. This team is more than a few pieces away from being a legitimate contender, so trading away the farm doesn't make a lot of sense in our view. Two or even three added pieces simply brings the Twins closer to legit, but likely won't make them legit. That's why those of us in this line of thinking wanted more action in the offseason so that the potential to make some moves at this deadline would actually make a difference now. That's not to say that we're correct, that's just our opinion.

    I think it's far too early to make any sort of evaluations. There is still a lot of season left before the trade deadline. Get to July 1 or the AS break and then we can start having this discussion. It's still just too early. I still think they're playing over their heads. I'd also unload the Dozier's and Santana's before I start dealing the youth unless the right fit comes along that makes dealing said youth more sensical.

    I thought this game was in Baltimore?!
  23. wsnydes
    I'd say they nailed that one, eh?
  24. wsnydes
    I've seen the Twins blow enough leads over the years or take a close game late an absolute blowout.
  25. wsnydes
    Games not over yet... plenty of time to re-turn the tides. Blake is right, I'm a Twins fan indeed.
