Congratulations! You're GM. Now Do Something!
Ahh...thanks, I should have read it more carefully.

Any word on Waldrop?
I hope he doesn't have something more serious going on. We need all the help we can get.

Ben Revere and The Real Estate Market
It's nice to see Revere's BA sitting in the 0.290s after today's game. Hopefully he can build on that and work on drawing more BBs.

Did I miss something? Where is the open spot on the 25-man roster? If Manship got promoted and Komatsu got DFA'd, then we're at 25.

Game 47 - Twins vs Tigers - 5/27/12
Guess I didn't miss much while I was roasting at Valleyfair today.

David Bromberg
Admittedly, I don't know a lot about this guy. But I am excited by the possibility of anyone who could potentially come up and help this team and maybe be a part of the future.

Game 46 - Twins vs Tigers - 5/26/12
Yeah, his BA has gone from .300 to the .260s in the blink of an eye. He seems to be taking a lot of good pitches and whiffing on ones he should be taking. Hopefully he gets is straightened out soon.

Scott Baker - stay or go?
I don't know. Even with a good recovery, most guys aren't that effective their first year back from TJ surgery. I think I still wouldn't pick up his option and if he wants to resign he can do so for less and then prove himself. If he walks, he walks.

That Certain Age
Age definitely brings perspective to life and the game. I remember watching Kirby Puckett play and being happy if he got four hits even if the Twins lost. Now, as a 32 year old, I think I would prefer a good win over an individual player's offensive performance.
-
Return of 13 Pitchers??
I agree. I never saw the point in claiming Komatsu. He certainly has more potential than Clete Thomas but at the same time he doesn't bring much to the table right now and your hands are tied as far as being able to send him down.

That might be a start, but it doesn't explain that level of incompetence.

16 flipping strikeouts and no walks. Simply ridiculous. I don't know what else to say.

Game 44 - Twins @ White Sox - 5/24/12
Let's get some early runs for Cole and take the pressure off a little bit. Hopefully he pitches well and gets a win in his debut and the team gets a series win against their rivals from the South Side.

Let's hope the fan in you is right instead of the analyst.

Anthony Swarzak, Cheer Up!!!
Maybe he looks so serious because he is sick of carrying that pinkish/purplish lunchbox on the way from the dugout to the bullpen. The initiations that ballplayers go through are quite humorous.

Game 41 - Twins @ White Sux - 5/22/12
Dominant showings by both the offense and the pitching have been extremely hard to come by this year. Usually if one is great, the other falters. It was great to see the team put it all together. Hopefully this continues.

Great win for the team and great outing by Walters. That is how you pitch.
-
Cole DeVries promoted to the Twins!
Congrats to DeVries. I hope he does well and proves his worth to the team going forward whether that be in the starting rotation or the bullpen. We've had good results with the pitchers called up this year, so I hope he continues the trend.
-
Hats off to Drew Butera
I was surprised he was hitting 93-94 on the gun a couple of times. I also liked his change up that he stuck out Gomez on.
-
Article: Marquis Out. Who Should Replace Him?
I think the time to get Slama up is now. I'd slide Swarzak into the starting rotation until Hendriks is ready.

Soon one year has passed...
Wow. It's hard to believe it's already been a year.

Game 37 - Twins @ Detroit - 5/17/12
Nice win. Nice sweep. Another encouraging outing by Walters. There are some positive things you can look towards on this team.

Keep the ball in the ball park please. Only 3 hits given up but all 3 have been HRs.
