    If he could drop some weight and take some stress off that huge frame the man could be an asset for many years.

    Was hoping for Moran

    Give Gordon a $50,000.00 gift card to Five Guys. Problem solved

    A shortstop who hits dingers? I'm in

    A big part of Polanco's greatness is being a switch hitter who's big power stroke is from the left side. Plenty of right-handed pitchers to terrorize!

    Under paid AND humiliated ? I'm craving some Sauerbraten

    Well I guess this FO aren't complete morons after all. Gleeman tweeted that the Twins called up Moran (pronounced moron)!

    How can you be old-timey and also post memes?

    I'm only halfway through this thread and it is awesome! The level of discourse is high and disagreements are completely civil; the US could use a dose of this!

    Albers is just trying to make Ryan's start last night even more impressive.

    What a bummer! I was looking forward to seeing him again tonight and now it's Albers. Gaaaah! Definitely a DVR night with the thumb on fast forward. Anyway was wondering if that new slider he developed in spring training may have caused this finger strain.

    Schoop was hoping to block Arraez, but your right he just lost his job.

    Maybe it would be better if you saw a list for the whole league. I would guess this happens with every team. Player development is more of a crap shoot in MLB than any other sport. Hindsight is 20/20. All teams make minor trades that include young lottery tickets like Gil and some of the Twins prospects you read about were acquired this way. What happens if Baddoo settles in as a 4th outfielder type and Miranda is an all-star? Do we then criticize the Detroit FO for taking the wrong guy? I will agree that there are some fringe vet types on the 40 man at times that I would love to hear the reasoning explained.

    It seemed in Ryan's start that he came out firing 93-95, but after a few innings he was sitting 90-92. Not sure if he gets gassed or if I am misinterpreting things.
  16. wabene
    Every day up counts and since he is already 25 the time is now.

    Thankfully you are not in charge. Look at Happ's track record. Seems like a solid choice for your 4th starter. He just got old this year and that was exactly the risk with him. Signing Shoemaker for your #5 is reasonable. The problem with that is you can't just send him down if he struggles, but I would have had a shorter leash on him and had Randy in AAA starting and ready. His cheap contract is actually perfect for a guy you stash in the minors. He has 3 options left.

    FTFY

    That 3rd innings was hard to watch. Things might have been quite different if Sano makes the throw, Gordon plays that double better and it's a single and if Jeffers blocks that slider (it didn't look that difficult). Randy was all over the place there, though. Let's watch him make a few more starts he might surprise the doubters.

    Dobs might just get it together
  21. wabene
    Unfortunately Rocco will nullify my prophesy.

    One thing you gotta give Randy is he doesn't get rattled. A good quality

    If Dobs has the success Colome has had we would all be surprised/happy
