I love the "bookend" look that Sano at third and Vargas at first give us.
Couple biggg boys.




Mr. Ed -> RE: Players and prospects III (7/14/2016 1:32:54 PM)

So at 6"6", Joe Mauer isn't a big enough bookend?

Dang those off-season workouts.

Considering that bookends hold in place the things of value called books but have no real value in themselves, a nickname of bookend seem appropriate for Mauer.

He is a bookend. Not a book. He is never in the middle of anything good.

Always on the periphery.

Anything happening in Dougie Alphabets world?
Been vewwwwwwy quiet down there.
Are we hiding him? is he angry? Waiting in the weeds?
Will be interesting to see how that situation progresses.

He has them with a winning record. That's an accomplishment given the talent that he was given.




SoMnFan -> RE: Players and prospects III (7/15/2016 8:12:58 AM)

Would really hate to lose him.




Mr. Ed -> RE: Players and prospects III (7/15/2016 8:15:31 AM)

13-8 in the second half, leaders in their division

7 over for the year

Lost Palka, just keep winning. Add some pitching, lose some pitching.

Have a feeling he'll force the issue if necessary this off-season.

Jesus is JR Murphy having a nightmare season. 0 for his last 17 and his average has dipped below .200

That trade (Hicks for Murphy) has ended up Gonorrhea for Syphilis. No better way to explain it.




Black 47 -> RE: Players and prospects III (7/15/2016 5:54:34 PM)

Had to laugh at Hick's stare into the Twin's dugout after his HR. He sure showed us! As bad as Murphy has been, it was still a good trade.

The fans are starting to turn the heat up on him. I don't watch Yankee games, but I did listen to WFAN this week when I was in my classroom. There were a handful of calls saying WHAT'S THE DEAL WITH HICKS? A lot of complaints about Girardi sticking with him too long.

In the long run, the Catching depth is good, but, the guy has been brutal.

At least Hicks isn't around to Block the young stirs

McMurfy -> RE: Players and prospects III (7/16/2016 10:55:39 AM)

Walker, Walker, Walker.

How long until he goes to Detroit, cuts down on his Ks and hits 50+ HRs?

I say in three years.




McMurfy -> RE: Players and prospects III (7/16/2016 10:56:50 AM)

18 Es by Gordon.
And they thought Polanco couldn't play SS

Yep, that's my thinking. He'd be the 4th, maybe 5th best outfielder on this team. Didn't need him here blocking youngsters. Heck, if we still had Hicks, Kepler might still be in AAA.

I still have hope for Murphy too.




ewen21 -> RE: Players and prospects III (7/16/2016 11:37:35 AM)

Murphy is a major disappointment, but for anyone to lament the loss of Hicks anymore is way off base.

I never liked Hicks and I am GLAD he isn't in a Twins uniform anymore. He was one of those guys who just didn't get it on so many levels. He just didn't have a major league bat or a major league head. He's going to turn 27 in October and the Yankees are finding out what we already knew. He's minor league livestock, imo.

I never had the feeling he was totally committed to his craft. Can't remember where I read it, hicks and Carew set a time to meet and work on things, and he showed up late? Who shows up late to work with rod Carew?




McMurfy -> RE: Players and prospects III (7/16/2016 11:38:38 AM)

I'm holding out hope for Murphy as a back up.

Ramos is a Free Agent after this year, good chance to right a wrong

He just doesn't have it. The quintessential ten cent head if there ever was one. He might be real athletic and all, but you need to be more than that. The guy just can't hit major league pitching and Yankee fans are hitting their boiling point with him. When that happens you can forget it

Oh I don't see the Twins getting him back. They probably saw character issues
