Dozier isn't even worthy of holding Casilla's jockstrap considering his numbers so far this year, and I'm no Casilla fan. With that said, I do agree that there is nothing left to evaluate concerning...

What is he, T. Ryan, going to do about it? What are you suggesting? What if the streak does reach 12 or 15 or 18 games?

I'll tell you what he's done about it during the first 9. He sent down...

I like your confidence in the 2016 team, but wonder if it isn't a bit misguided. Alot of decisions will have to be made between now and then to fill out a successful 25 man roster. Also, the...

Seth,

I appreciate your insight and your certainly closer and more informed when it comes to management than most on this site. I'd like to have confidence levels that high, but it's becoming...

Purely based on all the positive reviews/comments about his effectiveness with our minor leaguers over the past two years. I agree, those results aren't showing up for the Twins so far this season.

So your confident Gardy and Anderson won't hurt and will most likely help our pitching prospects such as Gibson, Meyer, and May? I wish I had that confidence. I'm much more confident in our minor...

I consider 88 wins a successful season. It may or may not get you a division championship depending on the year. It may or may not get you into the playoffs. It got the Twins into the playoffs in...

You beat me to it Snepp, couldn't agree more. Our starters are facing their best batters and not throwing as many secondary pitches/off speed stuff as they try to establish and keep the pitch count...

What are Andy's methods? As I recall, back when the Twins were decent he was known as a guy who wanted pitchers to throw strikes and avoid walks. It sure seems like the Twins as an organization are...

I don't know which 9 games your talking about and I'm not a Gardy apologist so I'm not necessarily arguing against your point. However, these starting pitchers have already put our bullpen in a big...

What are the totals for Twins/Visitors at TF and Twins/home team away from TF? What site would have this info most readily available? I did just a bit of looking at stats on yahoo a few days ago and...

I think we're all forgetting one major factor, economics! At the end of the day there are two and only two goals for any mlb franchise, winning the world series and attracting fans. This thread has...

I'm no scout and I don't pretend to be one.

But...

When I watch Worley and Hernandez pitch my thought process is, "They don't have any stuff and I'm not seeing any results." I'm having a real...

Once again, the laws of economics rule. You get what you pay for. Period. End of story.

Thank you Pohlads and Terry Ryan

As far as the Twins philosophy and what they are teaching in the minors...

In the Eastern League (12 teams) the New Britain staff is currently 7th in strikeouts and 8th in walks.

In the Florida...

I've enjoyed keeping up with our minor league affiliates this year. Our AA, A+, and A- clubs are having a great start to the year. So, I decided to compile some stats from Milb.com. Here you go,...

What I find really fascinating in all this talk about under slot/over slot etc. etc. etc. is that people are forgetting that after the top 3 in this draft the other players all basically come in...

There's no reason for Stewart to go under slot at 4. He and his agent realize he most likely won't be around past 6. From a player's perspective, you take under slot money at 4 because you realize...

I'm enjoying re-engaging with Hockey and watching the Wild this season. I used to watch alot of Hockey growing up in North Dakota. I enjoyed the rivalry between UND and UM and also watching the...

Seth, shouldn't the score of the CR game show CR 8, South Bend 4 in 9 innings?

There have been "minor" leagues basically since the inception of baseball back in the mid 19th century. Often times, these minor leagues employed some of the best players in baseball who for various...

Come on guys, when do we ever let fact get in the way of opinion around here? It's true, it certainly sucks to live in Minnesota right now and be a Twins fan. I'm glad I live in Iowa. Oops, it...

Let's bring this discussion back to baseball. Mustard or Ketchup with your dog?

I'm just fine wth Gardy's seat being plenty warm right now. I thought he was the right man for the job back in '02. I think he does a good job with veterans who probably need managed the least. I...

I've got no problems with Target Field whatsoever. I've been there once to experience it's majesty. I was at the Metrodome on several occasions. I can live with indoor baseball. Target Field,...
