Interesting concept. When I was coaching HS JV in Texas I encouraged my centerfielder to play shallow. The varsity coach liked his centerfielder to play deep. I guess that is why he was the varsity coach and I was JV.
Did I miss that the Twins have 2 Smeltzers on the team? Or is Delvin double listed on the bullpen chart? Really disappointed I wasn't naked to a crisp watching the Twins in Arlington last week. Sigh, it's good to have the Bombas back in action!
If MLB is going to ho to a super short season I would suggest playing all games in the division and take the top 2 teams in each division into the playoffs. Seed according to plans then record. Top 2 division winners get a bye. 9 game series 3 game home stand 3 times first team to 5 wins takes the series. Go back to a traditional 7 game World Series.
STUPID!!!! Please don't rewrite history or attempt to place your morals on the past. This both eradicates the truth of the past and sugarcoats the harsh reality that triple endured. There was only one perfect person. And he died on the cross 2 thousand years ago. Please stop with this politically corrupt nonsense!
What? Noooooooo Bombo Rivera, Willie Norwood and Hosken Powell outfield? I remember Castino as a 3rd baseman. Memory could be fading! I would put Dan the man from Gladden in left field.
Arraez concerns me the least. Could Luis "regress" to a .300 hitter? Is that even regressing? His hand eye coordination and strike zone knowledge will continue to propel him to being a valuable member of the Twins.
Falvey and company are looking very astute in their decision making prowess. Try finding a really bad decision. Not everything works out, but problem mistakes are tough to find.
