I'm not advocating for Bundy by any means but it's not very difficult to imagine Sands would be worse.

Maybe so, but if Sands can't improve on a 9+ ERA he's going to have a hard time keeping a 40 man roster spot. Finding out if Sands is a major league caliber pitcher seems like a lot more useful way to use the innings that continuing to give Bundy starts.

Agree.  Bundy is known.  Try the unknown.  All it costs is a DFA'd Bundy which is nothing.

Cano seemed to have figured out his control issues in AAA this year, but he's right back to being unable to throw strikes. They need to get him back to AAA and work on that, or he's just not going to work as a major leaguer.

The good news is this is only one game, and Baltimore is currently leading Cleveland so if both lose, the Twins will keep their 4.5 game lead. 

I’m not sure I’m really interested in extending the playoff losing streak. Im 35 years old and have seen 6 total playoff wins since I started following the team. I’ve had my fill of “it’s good just to make it”. Maybe in a couple years, the young pitching prospects can take flight, but anyone going into the postseason with this weak offense and someone like Ober or smeltzer expected to start a playoff game…yeah, no thanks

I'd be with ya if a hadn't put money on them winning the division

How the hell does Angel have a job? He's unquestionably the worst ump...maybe in MLB history. Does he have his eyes closed most of the time?

I could wager a guess but I don’t want any warning points

I'm with you, on another thread I mentioned I'd rather see them not make the playoffs than get swept again.

Yep, the same thread where someone suggested trading multiple prospects to get some help for the playoffs. Yeah, no. 10 of our 55 games have been against teams above .500, for a record of 3-7. I think I’ll pass

I'd be with them making a deal to get a bullpen arm, but not give up a major prospect, but someone like Polacios ?
