If he continues on the path he was on, he will be one of the best players in baseball I know you have to give something to get something,I think this was NOT having to give up Lewis and Kiriloff, I was just getting ready to slam Twins FO, but they have indeed added valuable assets.
love Arreaz who doesnt? J Scoop hits an occasional homerun, but is he worth keeping around? Id have trouble deciding between Scoop and Sano for next player outside looking in.
Its beyond me how TD staff doesnt think suppying their readers with pre season game results. I had to go to er..that other site to find out about games, that should not happen
on Eduardo Escobar, the best and most important Twin in the last several years. As a latin player he can probably be effective to his late 30 s , His dugout presence is worth a majority of the money, I heard a player say, that when he was traded from the White Sox, it was the first time he had seen MLB players cry. Thats how I felt too...but on the flip side, if you can get 3 respectable prospects AND resign him, what a coup that would be huh? Anyway Falvine, overspend on him bring him home a
Yeah, yeah..9-2 on the home stand, yes they won as I said they had to, but you know what they beat the best college team in baseball, dropped one to the lowly Royals and most disturbing, couldnt throw a pitch the third place Rays couldnt hit..nope its over....there are some promising thoughts..1- Did Falvey assist with the draft in Cleveland? Lets hope so, they have built an incredible team. Did you see those numbers of the Indians in the All Star Game? Ramirez 29 Hr's Lindor 25...I want some
I was just thinking today, Im gonna free up a lot of my time and let the Twins be....sick of watching them... but THEN..they call up Astudio? gulp..im back in!
Whats with all the Molitor Criticism? He should be blamed for Sano beng a child? Buxton Injuries? Morrison ineptness? Have you noticed Molitor cant bat? Wow...this guy the only coach in HISTORY to take a team from worst to the playoff, is the problem? Did Molitor make Polanco PED? Did Molitor make Dozier look like Father Time? Cmon...get a grip!
Trevor May D Enns M Littell Please vote.. As bad as Enns was, May was beyond awful, I think LIttell will be back, smarter and more determined, but this performance sends him to the back of the pack of the Next wave PLEASE VOTE!
I shudder to think about the Twins with what I think is there best player Escobar. That said, you have to rest him, Watch him swing, he's exhausted, love him but he cant play all the time, not to the level he's capable of. How good is Magill? Was he awesome last night or what?
Trevor May would NOT be an asset to the current Twins Pitching staff when Hughes was around yes but who do you replace now? May got battered around at Rochester tonight conjuring up memories of his former self, If the Twins are smart...they will only bring hm back in case of an injury
Why would I diss Dozier? Have you seen what happened to Grossman and Rodney after I dissed them? Rodney has been phenomenal, Robbie much improved so here goes Dozier. Dozier looks sooooo old...I think he's still upset about the Twins refusal to extend him...um Brian you are old and Gordon is coming get it? So old man, start carrying your weight or at least hit it! (might take a few games but his improvement is virtually assured)
Sanos value to me is questionable. I do wonder if Escobar has me spoiled. ! I dont know that Sano should be playing anyway, and 2- How long will we ever have him? Anyway Id like your input if you would trade Sano for a catcher or just what you think we should do with him
Im predicting before the year is over...Jose is going back to Rochester. Here is what he has to do to stay up. Berrios has good stuff, but he is scouted to death at the major league level...Good stuff alone is not enough. Berrios has to learn how to deceive hitters, mixing pitches, changing speeds, otherwise he is going to remain batting practice. Remember how exultant he was after dominating Baltimore? A quote from him was something like, I was able to do it throwing my pitches, hopef
When Santana returns, what to do with existing rotation? 1. Romero 2. Gibson 3. Berrios 4. Odorizzi 5. Lynn This is how I rank the rotation so who does Santana replace? To further complicate this Gonsalves is ready, wow we are going to be pitching rich...who would have thunk it?
Im interested to know what Twins fans think of Miguel Sano. Please choose one of the following positions: 1- Franchise Level Player, when he's healthy he will carry the Twins 2. Serviceable, but to this point disappointing 3. Get rid of him and his strikeouts if you can get anything for him
The minor league report said that Jimmy Kerrigan was promoted from Ft Myers to Rochester? Anybody have any info on this? Ive never seen that before, have you?
Romero has good stuff, anybody can see that. But what will make him stalwart for years to come, is his POISE. He was not intimidated one bit today, this guy is as advertised, somebody in the rotation is going to the pen or DFA in the very near future!
#1 DFA the Putrid Bat of Robbie Grossman, while his former ability to get on base was a powerful aphrodisiac, his now lack of ability to hit or walk, has made him an unbearable burden...goodbye and good riddance Robbie #2 -Opportunity lost, the player I have been the most interested in is Mitch Garver, cmon Mitch, hit a little and become the full time catcher, so what does he do? stink it up! Castro couldnt hit a barn and one game after watching the two hitters before him walk on pitches th
Obviously one game, but what pitching! Odorizzi sp? Was terrific, Reed unspeakable, and even the guy who kept throwing it into the ground I can see is gonna be a big help. seems Falvine knows how to construct a team. Biggest disappointment is Sano, Im so sick of him going to the plate and not even coming close to the ball, If the the wins can trade him, move Escobar back to third and Ehire to Short Anyway excited about this season we are gonna be in it, be real contendters!
I really hold back what I would like to say about then payroll arguments here. The fact that people don't accept the amount taken in dictates the amount going out requires one of two things. Extreme financial ignorance or fanatical bias that prevents the acceptance of something some basic. I did not change the argument. It's the same idiocy over and over. Do you really want to be on the side that suggests revenues does not determine spending capacity?
At this point in the pre-season, I’m just so happy to be seeing games again, I don’t care about the Twins record in 2023. I think they’ll win it all, unrealistically speaking 🙂
