    Rightfully gave that error to Rosario there. Why did he do that?
  2. bighat
    In theory they have enough prospects/projects starting right now. KC for example is just running a steady diet of the same young 5 guys out there. They want to get those guys work, rather than bring in Mejia and see if he can fix his stuff. Better the devil you know.....

    Yeah, I agree - don't think the Twins could have beat that deal: primarily because the Jays didn't think our deal was any good. They wanted either Lewis or Kiriloff, and if they were firm on that, Twins had no chance to make a trade.

    Neither are listed in the Top 100 prospect list from MLB pipeline. I think Kay is just outside the top 100, and you're right he's not garbage. But still a shocker from my perspective and I don't think I'm alone.

    Reports said Jays demanded one of either Royce Lewis or Alex Kiriloff be included in the Stroman package. Twins said no. Time will tell if that was the right decision.

    Wow, Mets asked for Buxton in the Syndegaard deal? Seriously that's just wrong on so many levels. And the Blue Jays' asking price for Stroman demanded that one of either Lewis or Kiriloff be included? And then they took the garbage pile prospects from the Mets? I don't get it. MLBTradeRumors article says Twins have pivoted to look for more bullpen arms now. Okay, okay, let's get some already and play ball!

    The season Minor is having reminds me way too much of Martin Perez. An average to below average lefty who's been bashed in prior years who is getting lucky with smoke and mirrors. I wish I felt like you do about Minor, but I feel like he's on a lucky streak and history points to that streak ending very soon.

    They'll end up with one of the less-inspiring guys from the starters listed. I'm guessing Minor or Leake. They may also add another reliever in a similar mold, maybe Kennedy or something like that. They'd better stay far away from Lance Lynn and not even entertain the idea. The bats are going to have to carry this team all the way.

    At this point you can't justify sending Arraez down. Sure, if he was on fire for a week or two, that's one thing. But the kid is on absolute fire and I don't think anyone in the Twins clubhouse, ownership, or front office are interested in sending him down. It ain't gonna happen. So yeah that leaves Schoop as the odd man out. And that's okay. Remember, the Dodgers unloaded Logan Forsythe on the Twins last year. He had just a half-season remaining on the deal. The Twins got something extra back from Los Angeles by taking him on. So, the Twins can foist Schoop onto another team, but they'll have to probably give up a higher ranked prospect if they do a deal with Schoop included.

    I was kinda joking about that, I know that a RT flight from Chicago-MIA isn't much for an MLB team. Just thought it was kinda funny that - of all places - the Twins go to Miami today.

    One school of thought says this means they're going to move Syndergaard. Stroman is under control for 2020 so he'll essentially replace Thor, and the Mets will replace the prospects they lost in the Stroman deal with better prospects when they trade Syndergaard. In the end though, it's one more pitcher gone off the market. Nice to see the rebound game. More. Of. This. Cleveland lost and Bauer blew a gasket, all very nice to see while winning in a laugher. Taking 3 of 4 on the road against any MLB team is a great series. Was Romo in the bullpen today? Twins wasted a plane ticket, could have just left him in Miami and met him there. How about a good old fashioned hot streak right about now? 5-6 wins in a row would be just what the doctor ordered. Create some space.

    I'm going to press pause on my frustration-o-meter for this game. If the Twins win Sunday's game, all is forgiven with this clunker. If they lose, I'll be extra grouchy. Nibbly Gibby is on the hill for a huge game. His last big game test against the Yankees did not go well. Twins need this guy to perform at his best from here on out, can't just rely on Berrios any more.

    Garver in a bit of a rut after that NYY series.
  14. bighat
    Is this Ian Nova or Max Scherzer on the mound? What the heck is going on?
  15. bighat
    Great pick by Arraez! Nice game defensively. It looks like he's earned his way into the main lineup with Schoop moving more and more towards just starting against lefties.

    I DID have chicken. Spent the day traveling, MCO-PTY-GUA. Followed by a 1.5 hour taxi ride through the mountains. Needless to say I was in no mood to cook anything, so I walked down to this little fried chicken joint and got some wings. Being a health-conscious individual, I also bought lettuce, carrots and tomatoes and made myself a little salad. Tried to grab a pint of ice cream as well but they only had rum-rasin. No gracias! Just exhausted, as evidenced by me posting all over another thread on this board, thinking it was the game thread.
  17. bighat
    Here I am, commenting away thinking this is the game thread. Ha. Sorry all.

    Kep dawg with the 3-run blast! Here we go boys!
  19. bighat
    Head's up baserunning by Arraez! If you're a White Sox fan that outfield play's gotta get the blood boiling.
  20. bighat
    Double-digits, thanks Jorge! Must see TV! Cruz is up!
  21. bighat
    Nice K, Berrios! One more and let's hand it back to the offense!
  22. bighat
    Ugh, c'mon Jose.
  23. bighat
    The White Sox lineup isn't exactly NYY but they can hit. C'mon, Berrios, hold steady here buddy. Twins need a couple more scoreless here.
  24. bighat
    LaTroy with the call, too. Hold 'em where they're at, Berrios!
  25. bighat
    Attaboy Kep!
