  1. He does look much better. I still think his hands are too high making his swing longer than necessary
  2. It doesn’t matter if is one year or a career. To compare Polonco (who I like) to Carew is ridiculous. He would have to perform at his career all time level for the rest of this year for an annual comparison and another 10 years for a career comparison.
  3. You cannot be serious. I love Jorge but to compare him to Carew? You need to seriously slow the roll
  4. The exciting thing is guys in double A are potential 25 man adds. Not everyone can hack it but some can
  5. I was one of the doubters. He has looked very good throwing way more strikes than his history would suggest. I will hold off on buying in until the league sees his cutter for a bit
  6. Fair enough. I don’t think he is the same hitter he was then. I sincerely hope he gets it back but he can’t keep on flailing away like he has been
  7. If playing the outfield for 6 weeks messed him so badly then there is no hope for him.
  8. Your assessment of Sano is quite optimistic. He hasn’t been good since the first half of his rookie season. The league adjusted to him and so far he has not adjusted to that. In my mind the jury is definitely out on him
  9. Don’t buy any of the numbers and I think his defense is overrated. That said I would keep him unless they are out of it at the trade deadline
  10. I’m with RB on this one. Condition your pitchers to go two or more and the chronic running out of relievers will end
  11. DSP of course but the concessionaire but control the prices. It is a little strange how he slammed his own related product
  12. I don’t know this but perhaps the concessions are contracted out and that company sets the prices?
  13. The big question with Miggy is whether can regain his rookie year approach. If not it’s not important when he comes back
  14. Many of us pointed out that due to the swing and miss nature of our lineup the offense will be inconsistent. And everyone except Falvine apparently knew our bullpen would suck
  15. He’s had 3 good starts out of 4. Coming off TJ I’d say that’s pretty good
  16. I think we are finding out whether it is Molitor or Baldelli there is no such thing expert management of a crappy bullpen. This is on Falvine and their hubris
  17. The Twins are fun to watch and not just because they are winning. They have several really interesting players. I disagree with most about bullpen usage. This is smoke and mirrors and guys are pitching a lot. Not sustainable
  18. So what we gave up in draft pick compensation for Lynn nets is a nothing prospect. Another move that doesn’t move us forward
  19. My main concerns going into the season were the bullpen and the all or nothing nature of the lineup at the plate. I’ve been surprised by the bullpen but today is an example of the pitfalls of having a lot of swing and miss guys. Eflin was begging to get smoked and they couldn’t put anything together
  20. Very interesting. I hope that this new approach leads to greater command. I think most fans are too focused on velocity right now. Plenty of hard throwers in independent baseball
  21. If you have a bad bullpen the only thing riskier than signing free agent relievers is not singing free agent relievers. That had nothing to lose and did nothing I don’t get them
