  1. I dont know how long Suzuki will be out, but if it is a leg injury or knee , he needs to stay off for at least a week or two, that basically takes us to the last 10 games of the season, I would try to trade for Pierzynski to take his place till he comes back, couldnt cost us too much..........now if Suzuki is out rest of season, then you have to play Fryer or Herrmann so they can get as much playing time for possible post season play. That is my opinion.
  2. What happened to Lapanta, the post game announcer, looks like someone slugged him in the eye.
  3. Difference is Joe takes the first strike, almost always, Sano doesnt always take the first strike, maybe the first pitch, but i havnt noticed that, but will from now on and see if that is true.
  4. Sometimes winning when you are suppose to is not as easy as it seems, SEE THE WASHINGTON NATIONALS!!!!!!! But I dont think Matt Williams is much of a manager.
  5. That is for sure a pitcher cover play, so easy, why should the first baseman have to make that play, he is expecting the pitcher to be there.
  6. What do you do?????Bottom of 8th inning, runners on second and third, 1 out, do you let Buxton bat again this game????
  7. Well CB Bucknor is and has been a terrible umpire, and tonight is terribly inconsistent on pitches, but with that said, I am now worried the Twins players and coaches are more worried about arguing balls and strikes that they will give themselves an out if they lose this game..........JUST CONCENTRATE ON WHAT IS AHEAD OF YOU!!!!!
  8. I think Vargas on the 1st and maybe Pinto for hitters, and Achter and Tonkin for relievers. If they call up Berrios, I hope and think they should b4 Sept 1, in case he is lights out in the bullpen , they can use him in a playoff situation if we get there. They have to leave some players in AAA , and dont rob to many from AA cuz they are in the playoffs.
  9. I like this idea, BUT, if neither Vargas or Arcia can handle the DH duties, I would prefer keeping Plouffe, untill we do find someone to DH other than Sano, when that happens then I would be more inclined to trade Plouffe.........with that said if we get someone willing to overpay just a little even, then I would trade Plouffe and take my chances with Arcia or Vargas coming thru.
  10. Hunter, that is the wrong way to show the young guys how to run out a ball.
  11. I think keep it at 162 games, have 6 home and 6 away DHeaders a yr and have a 27 man roster........I want records to still have a chance to be broken.
  12. I have never been a Dean fan, as far as his ability to be a Major leaguer, what is he doing different that he is getting the results he is getting, no one talks about him as a possible Sept call up, I dont think he is a Major leaguer, but would be nice for him to get some love(sept callup) for a very good season, when it only looked like he was a AAA placeholder waiting to be waived.
  13. I have no problem with May being in the pen this yr, and maybe next yr too, if we dont find other quaility relievers.......he was mostly a 6 inning pitcher, and did it pretty well, but we had no or little quality to follow him coming out of the pen, and I think he was a much better bullpen option than Pelfrey, but i guess we wont know for sure since Pelfrey never relieved, but May has strikeout ability were Pelfrey not as much so...........but unless we find or develop a couple more starters by next yr, i prefer May in the starting rotation long term as i think he has the makings of a #3 starter.
  14. For a game 163, I would want Gibson, mostly a ground ball pitcher again HR hitters, on both teams and in case of Yankee Stadium HR haven.............secondly lefty Milone, he is very wily and i dont think gets rattled...........If we made the playoffs, Hughes, Milone, Gibson, and if we had to go with a 4th starter, Pelfrey now, but could change my mind if Duffey, keeps the good starts going and looks like he is not gunshy for the playoff games against a Blue Jay or Yankee team.
  15. I am high on Navarreto myself, he is young and I think has a chance to hit .250 or better in the future.
  16. Well if it is any consolation, those HR were not hanging pitches, Toronto is just a HR hitting team, bigtime.
  17. He had a one hitter going at that time.
  18. Can you imagine the howling if May was left in and Rodriguez hits HR, Perkins is our closer, he had a rough outing, it happens, get over it!! Id much rather have Molitor than what we previously had.........and the Twins are one of the few teams above where people thought their teams would be, i can only imagine if you were fans of those teams you wouldnt like any of the managers. And i will let Molitor take credit for the wins we were not suppose to have up to this point , if he is asked to take the blame for this loss.
  19. I am only on page 4 reading as i write this so someone maybe already corrected it, but Dozier is only $3 Mill next yr not 7.5.
