    Dude, chill with the attitude. Or keep pounding your head into the wall, eventually maybe the CTE kicks in and makes you happy. If Ober can stay at the 93'ish velocity he can be a legitimate starter.

    Post of the day.

    They didn’t trade Rosario, they non-tendered him and let him walk. And who cares? He has been terrible this year and was on a downward trend the past few years. It was smart allocation of resources. I also give credit to Polanco, because as he was struggling he never shied away from interviews, often in English and without an interpreter. That is character.

    Yeah, this is pointless to discuss if you're just going to go Joe Morgan on the bit. Good day sir.

    Wow. Batting average? Is this 1998?

    That isn't how vaccines work. They do not always prevent disease. Vaccines limit and minimize the disease process by jump starting the acquired immune response. Instead of 10 days of illness you have 3 days if you are vaccinated, or for COVID you don't die or suffer long haul symptoms. The fact is the mRNA vaccines were so good initially pre-varianasty it made evening getting sick seem unlikely and have made this "they don't work argument possible." Simmons is making the same invalid argument you are. And no legitimate research has linked cognitive disorders and vaccination.

    The return on the position players, would not fetch the front office what the players bring to the team.

    It is just lazy to say the team wasn’t prepared to play. If the bullpen’s ERA wasn’t 5 what would the record be? And the narrative would be drastically different.

    Where's a leader like Kyle Lohse taking a bat to the manager's door when you need them?

    Defending Rosario with thinly veiled accusations of racism is hilarious. Nick posted the screenshot from MLB savant. The only thing Rosario is above average at is striking out. These are no longer just numbers but actually physical measureables. He isn’t making hard contact, swings at pitches outside the zone, isn’t a great fielder and makes idiotic mistakes.

    This. I can’t imagine the clubhouse would love dumping Rosario at this time, I do hope behind the scenes Baldelli is somewhat vocal about the sloppy play.

    May, and his combination this year of hard contact when he does give up contact is a little scary for a 31 year old reliever with control issues.

    He was finally cleared from COVID the past week. He's at Fort Myers I believe working out. But no idea if he'll ever report to saint Paul this year.

    For however many years he was part of the Twins for me on TV. I think it was also my generation that was the most involves and vocal in getting him into the Hall of Fame. But it was grossly past his time to retire. I wish him nothing but luck.

    How many “aces” exist in MLB? Unless a team wants to rebuild and the Twins give up a load, that is a pipe dream.

    Um they didn't play last night. And I'd be happy if the company I work for and the federal government cared enough to actually supply enough PPE for me to do my job safely.

    Littell down for Hill.

    "What's wrong with Nick's column?" Not a damn thing.
  20. a-wan
    Yeah, cause I'm pretty, pretty sure we don't want to hear Rosario's thoughts on gay marriage.
  21. a-wan
    What's the old cliche? Don't meet your heros you'll only be disappointed? That was my thought when all this came out about Kepler.
  22. a-wan
    This. His K% this is great, yet, I still cringe when he pitches. Same with May and his inability to throw strikes.
  23. a-wan
    I would agree, for any team but the Twins. As a fan of the team I want them to not suck now. Trading Santana for something in the future makes the Twins suck more now, in hopes of sucking less in the future. Or maybe I'm just not confident in the front office because I forget that JR isn't running the team anymore?
  24. a-wan
    I'd argue that this roster is crazy close to those division winners. Sans Santana and Radke and the insanely good bullpens.
  25. a-wan
    I'll make a suggestion, Kyle Gibson. Peace out, holmes.
