    Maybe so. I'm not sure what I'd do with them, to be honest. They seem to have allowed the game to get way deep into their heads. How does one get a young player to turn off an overthinking brain? Crash Davis, where are you?
  2. Dozier's Glorious Hair
    No, I get that argument. But are we 100% certain that the experience they've been accumulating lately has been helping them? Certainly the Twins have reached the conclusion that facing MLB hitters right now is doing them both more harm than good.
  3. Dozier's Glorious Hair
    While I certainly understand why people are perplexed by these moves, Berrios and Duffey are getting absolutely bludgeoned right now. At some point, the referee needs to step in and stop the fight.
  4. Dozier's Glorious Hair
    That's 30, baby!!!

    The young guys on the team (Sano, Polanco, Kepler, Rosario) seem to be getting plenty of at-bats, so I assume the "benched" player is Vargas. It definitely sucks to lose him for a few weeks, but if Antony is shopping Plouffe to the contending teams right now, putting him in the lineup everyday makes sense. If he's not being shopped, then demoting Vargas obviously becomes much more difficult to defend.

    Is it really an either/or, though?
  7. Dozier's Glorious Hair
    If Mauer isn't in the starting lineup for 120+ games in 2018 (barring injury), I'd be pretty shocked. He's been the face of the franchise for well over a decade, a franchise that's loyal to a fault. I just don't see it.

    If the Twins see Polanco and Dozier both playing for the 2017 Twins, then Jorge should be getting plenty of playing time on the left side of the infield (like he is now). An occasional start at 2B isn't a big deal, but if Dozier isn't going anywhere, I don't see how playing Polanco there helps him or the team. If Mauer's getting half the starts at 1B (with Park, Vargas, and maybe Sano and Plouffe sharing the rest), I wouldn't see a problem with that (there's always DH for Joe). Bottom line for me: Mauer isn't going to be a bench player in 2017-18, so he shouldn't be sitting much in September.
  9. Dozier's Glorious Hair
    He did call for Vielma. I disagreed with him. I don't mind Suzuki, Escobar, and Plouffe having their playing time cut down. It was including Dozier and Mauer in that group that made me raise my eyebrows.
  10. Dozier's Glorious Hair
    Well, he said all those guys can sit for a month. I assumed that meant sitting on the bench.
  11. Dozier's Glorious Hair
    Whoa, if benching all those guys for the last month of the season is the truth, I'll take the lie. This was touched upon in the thread about Stephen Gonsalves, but the impatience and urge for the Twins to "do something" is causing many folks to push for things that would be severely detrimental to this team's future. Making Engelb Vielma our new everyday shortstop for the last month of the season would be bad for him, bad for the Twins, and bad for the fans who would have to endure watching this poor kid struggle to hit his weight. Letting prospects develop properly IS long-term vision, in my opinion.

  15. Dozier's Glorious Hair
    I agree he should be shopped in the offseason, since the team has more pressing needs than 2B. The return would have to be worthy of an All-Star player in his prime, though.
  16. Dozier's Glorious Hair
    Yeah, I'm good with trading Dozier, provided the return is substantial (the 2016 equivalent of Liriano, Nathan, and Bonser would suit me fine).
  17. Dozier's Glorious Hair
    If consistency (as you define it) is so necessary, then why would any other team want him? How is it possible to "sell high" on a guy who is only good one month a year (and who won't even have that good month "one of these times")? It seems like the return for that guy would be pretty minimal.
  18. Dozier's Glorious Hair
    Dozier. Again.
  19. Dozier's Glorious Hair
    Ham.
  20. Dozier's Glorious Hair
    God, I hate it when Bremer uses his "home run voice" for any fly ball hit longer than 250 feet.
  21. Dozier's Glorious Hair
    Just don't pull a hammy, Miguel.
  22. Dozier's Glorious Hair
    You just knew Dozier was going to get in on this home run action.
  23. Dozier's Glorious Hair
    To be fair, Grossman's July was very good (.402 OBP, .278 AVG, .750 OPS). He has a .343 OBP in about 900 career AB, and he's likely not yet entered his "prime" years. There's room for him on this team.
  24. Dozier's Glorious Hair
    Will somebody please ban this guy?
