  1. Let's just forego the SSS talk, because we all get it, and we all hope things start changing. But how does his OPS change depending on which spot he's in?
  2. Well, why didn't you tell the rest of us? Why'd you have to keep it a secret?!!!!
  3. I never really fell one way or another on the "why risk screwing with Sano's bat by playing him in a new position" argument. But so far, I think that's what's going down. When he missed that ball yesterday, he looked shaken--almost like he was welling up. The next thing he did? Take his frustration out on the umpire (yes, it was a terrible call, etc). He hates playing out there. It's embarrassing for him and he's forcing things at the plate as a matter of overcompensation. Just let the boy hit home runs! He's a good boy! For the love of god, just let him hit the ball!
  4. Nice job here. Something's got to give with the 1B/3B/DH situation. I would like to see one of Mauer/Park/Plouffe volunteer to move into RF for the good of the team. It's an idealistic, borderline delusional concept, i realize. But, isn't that basically how it worked out when Plouffy seized 3B in 2012?
  5. OK, I get where you're coming from. And where you're coming from, Plouffe isn't a Twin anymore. Sounds like a nice place.
  6. I'm as much of a SABRbobo as the next guy, but here's where WAR becomes kinda stupid (or, alternatively, I become stupid for not understanding or bothering to really do so). Aren't you trying to add up all the WAR from everyone on your team? Isn't that the only reasonable application for WAR? If Sano loses half his value by moving from RF to DH, I'll eat my shoe. Add one or two for the defensive value of the RF replacement, keep Plouffy's 2.5, and on the whole, your team should "win" more "games."
  7. uhhh...I think our lines got crossed. We were talking about playing Bocaton at DH fulltime.
  8. Yeah, not even a concern, though. He'll be back to DH before June. Not sure who will be shuffled around, but I'm fairly confident that he'll end up where he's meant to.
  9. Prediction: the twins will be very glad to have faced the Orioles early. Alvarez is going to jack some dingers. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but someday.
  10. Guys, is that guy gone? Are we all clear to cheer on peoples deaths now?
  11. Well, I might have been wrong. The fans aren't winning right now.
