geaux_sioux Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 First baseball game I've watch all year. It's my least favorite sport but there's just something about October that makes me watch each year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UNDMOORHEAD Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Pitching pretty much absent thus far. Offense is going to have to win this one the way it's going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UNDMOORHEAD Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 The Twins had a better year then I thought they would. Still sucks to lose though, especially to the Yanks. I hope they can find some more pitching and come back strong next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWSiouxMN Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 First thing on the list: Figure out what to do with Molly Next: Thank Colon for his services but it is time for Big Sexy to ride off into the sunset Do the same for Hughes, Perkins, Santiago, and Grossman Give Granite the 4th outfield spot and tell Vargas and Park that the DH spot is open for competition. Sign a pitcher to back up Berrios and Santana in the rotation and give Berrios the opening day start (time to see if he can take the next step and be an ace). If you keep Gibby, make him the 4th starter and bring up one of the kids for the 5th spot. If not, put Meija in and repeat. Upgrade the bullpen. Above all else this needs to priority #1 Tell Sano to figure out how to stay healthy and fit. Buxton needs to take the next step, Rosario needs to prove that this year wasn't a fluke Need to figure out what to do with Polanco and Dozier with Gordon nearly ready.  Will this be it for Joe after this season? They got all they could out of that team and got 85 wins to show for it. Now they need to start thinking how they can catch Cleveland. Big Offseason ahead  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Park went back to South Korea, Twins brought in Morrison for DH spot. Vargas might not make the team. Sign a pitcher to back up Berrios and Santana in the rotation and give Berrios the opening day start (time to see if he can take the next step and be an ace). If you keep Gibby, make him the 4th starter and bring up one of the kids for the 5th spot. If not, put Meija in and repeat. Struck out on Yu (but could be a blessing), got Jake Odorizzi from the Rays for nothing. Just got Lynn on a 1 year deal Santana injury will be a concern but he gets healthy. Berrios-Santana-Odorizzi-Lynn-Gibson rotation is a massive upgrade Upgrade the bullpen. Above all else this needs to priority #1 Boosted the Bullpen, but by how much? Tell Sano to figure out how to stay healthy and fit. Buxton needs to take the next step, Rosario needs to prove that this year wasn't a fluke Major concerns with Sano, I think the other two will be fine Need to figure out what to do with Polanco and Dozier with Gordon nearly ready. Could this be the last season with Dozier? Will this be it for Joe after this season? Will be a big talking point this season They got all they could out of that team and got 85 wins to show for it. Now they need to start thinking how they can catch Cleveland. Big Offseason ahead  They address their two biggest issues in the offseason quite well Should look at a 90 win team this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWSiouxMN Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 Well there now there is one gaping hole in the lineup Polanco gets banned for 80 games for PEDs Of course with Sano's ruling on his suspension lurking the Twins could be without their left side of the infield for a good chunk of the season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
