    The dearly departed John Hicks was the first casualty, and Pat Dean should be the second one....IMO.

    I think it should go to Stuart Turner. He is hitting as well as he ever has in Pro Ball and his confidence in his hitting may never be this high again.

    Buddy, you gotta let it go.....or visit your therapist.

    Has Milone lasted twice through the lineup yet this season?

    Thanks for the info. Either AMF Pat Dean or just foggettabout David Murphy would have been sufficient to protect Hicks.

    That doesn't correct the error. The Twins acquired THREE good defensive catchers this offseason. (Murphy, Hicks and Centeno) Likely only two, one or none of them will hit MLB pitching. Hicks was a valuable asset because he may have been the ONLY one who can hit in MLB. Like Nick Nelson suggested: Put Pat Dean (or Logan Darnell) on waivers and protect Hicks.

    Too much inbreeding!

    Yes, from Nick's article. I just said "prosecuted", not "convicted". I doubt if Terry Ryan has a previous criminal record. I would ask for probation and restitution.

    IMO, the Twins' losing John Hicks to waivers was BEYOND STUPID. Whoever engineered that move should be fired or prosecuted. Suzuki and JR Murphy are both failing and there were no other catchers on the 40-man. If it was done to add another outfielder, it was Beyond-Beyond Stupid. There are several worthless pitchers on the 40-man roster who should have been kicked to the curb instead of Hicks, who was probably on pace to replace JR Murphy on the 25-man roster, at least temporarily.

    From Twins Centric: "We have our early favorite for most inexplicable Twins roster decision of 2016. Over the weekend, the team outrighted catcher John Hicks, presumably to open up a spot on the 40-man roster for an impending David Murphy call-up. Hicks was quickly claimed by the Tigers, so he's gone"

    What shortcomings led to John Hicks being placed (and lost) on waivers?
  13. sane17
    Great day for Daniel (Beer Barrel) Palka. My bad!, but SOMEBODY was eventually going to call him that.

    I keep losing the ability to comment on a given account. I go through the procedure to restore that ability and usually forget my password, don't receive the required email message to change existing password. Finally after wiffing at all the curveballs thrown at me, I am left with one option....."create new account".

    Thanks, but I'm a vet who has been forced to change monikers a few times.

    How can you "pitch to contact" against hitters who can't make contact?

    Park was originally signed as a third-baseman.
