  1. Yes I said ALCS for this team's ceiling because they could make the playoffs and then anything could happen. Unlikely. A deadline bullpen arm at minimum and some more decisive roster management to spark this club. Maximize the healthy, performing talent on the field at all times. Some hard decisions must be made.
  2. I agree with your first statement. If you want to beat good teams you have to make the plays that are there. The Jays got their double plays 3 out of the first 4 innings, they didn't mess up. I think it is way too early give up on Julien in the field. He can be a great sparkplug for this team, what does worry me is he seems to have a hard time moving on after a bad play in the field.
  3. You could say the Bird's use of Cimber was similar.
  4. Fricken tough loss I thought they had this one, damn. Oh well back to chores, glad I got all that piss and vinegar out, thanks for being there for me, lol.
  5. This is a big start for Louie V after that last one and Maeda pumping the 91.5 HEAT on rehab.
  6. I'm not sure Mahle showed us much. Even if he gets the elbow in order, how's that shoulder looking? The deal for Pineda was a good one for the Twins, maybe something similar with little commitment or risk would be ok. On the other hand we already have one of these deals on the books with Paddack, isn't that enough?
  7. Interesting that the man who wasn't fit for the job last year, the bashful Mr Maki, is riding this group of starters into the stratosphere of pitching coach super stardom, lol. My impression is Maki, while lacking his predecessor's big personality and salesmanship, is quite sharp behind the scenes. That being said it is always the players that make or break their coach's reputations.
  8. IDK we now have the young Joe banker scion who seems to like baseball and definitely has the means... we'll see
  9. This could be debatable but I scratched the interim Rob Anthony, but included one year answer Howard Fox and the do everything man Calvin Griffith. 6 GM's in 62 years. And the over under is 10.33 years.
  10. Total System Failure. Just rolls off the tongue, doesn't it? That is why they make the big bucks.
  11. True that, good post. Even Kirilloff couldn't resist that change. Nice to see the boys pick up Ryan who grinded out a nice start today.
  12. Concur sir. As much as young guys like Julien and Wallner sparking the team and MAT hitting bombs, bunts and stealing bases will help, Correa hitting for 100 games like he did last September is the key.
  13. Good point the first grand slam. Remarkable really
  14. Carlos has got to be relieved. He's gotta turn it around now, eh? Go on a roll Carlos
  15. Ssssssssssssssssssss! Ah, that was Carlos
  16. Sux lose, two game win streak against a tough team, not bad.
  17. Just grinding on Brock these days.
  18. Yep I think that's right the consensus is the size of the love handles is crucial factor
  19. I think the record keeper was fired
  20. One thing about this squad is it doesn't matter who they are playing. The only time they looked over-matched was against Tampa
  21. Nice Kirilloff was due Hitting IS contagious
  22. Chapman is chapped, "geez I can't buy a hit against these guys"
