KW on the Score tomorrow morning at 9.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 3, 2015 -> 04:10 PM) It's not that bad for the Twins. They save over $6 million and it's not like they had any chance to compete this year anyway. That's one way of looking at it, but I'm sure their front office would rather start building toward respectability. Terry Ryan is a hardass.

I'd really like to see the look on Terry Ryan's face when he found out. Seriously, what the f*** is wrong with Ervin Santana? Dumb ass.

QUOTE (ChiSox59 @ Apr 3, 2015 -> 03:17 PM) I thought Tuiasosopo wasn't w the organization anymore. Just re-signed the other day.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 3, 2015 -> 03:21 PM) Is Charlotte that low on outfielders they have to play Leury? For some reason Beltre is on the Sox side tonight. Maybe all of the final roster cuts are after the game. https://twitter.com/SethLakso/status/584073731213025280

Sox-Opening Day Lineup with Danks starting and a bunch of lower level guys coming in in the 5th inning. Charlotte lineup https://twitter.com/KnightsBaseball/status/...081792971440129 Yeah, I don't care either. Just nobody get hurt.

Speaking of Ventura, he's talking to the media right now, so we'll probably know shortly who the 25th man is.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 3, 2015 -> 02:02 PM) If the team gets off to a slow start, then he absolutely should be let go. The sloppiness of the last two years seemed to continue during ST. 15-20 years ago, a guy like Robin wouldn't have been hired in the first place. He wouldn't be given a contract extension after a 99 loss season. I know where you're coming from, but Robin Ventura is bullet proof.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 3, 2015 -> 01:27 PM) I'd prefer Avi batting 5th, but maybe he will on Monday. However this Charlotte lineup today may be our Opening Day lineup. Based on recent spring training games, this is Monday's lineup.

QUOTE (shipps @ Apr 3, 2015 -> 01:09 PM) Good God, seeing it on paper it really hits home of how important Johnson is going to be to the bottom of the order. If he doesnt exceed expectations it will be a huge whole in the lineup for the bottom three. We really need to see Gillaspie not be terrible too. Make the routine plays, hit .275 with 10 homers, and knock in some sac flys when needed.

Monday looks real good in KC. Wednesday and Thursday...not so much. Next Friday is typical OD Weather. mid -50's, maybe some rain.

Terrible. Cheer up, people.

Released today

What a Merkin thing to say... https://twitter.com/scottmerkin/status/583688608659349504

Penny and Carroll have been reassigned to minor league camp.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 2, 2015 -> 12:07 PM) Or maybe they want to give him more opportunities to show that he's MLB ready before the season. It's also amusing how whoever makes those always misspells "Putnam". Good catch. Which reminds me, I CANNOT STAND how Rongey says Putnam wrong.

https://twitter.com/CST_soxvan/status/583669195511967744 Read into this meaning Drabek is #7 in the pen?

I really hope Hawkins is 1. Not saying he will, but that would be great.

Alexei batting 5th on Monday?

KC on Monday- 77 and cloudy & windy The rest of the time in KC looks ok. Charlotte is sunny and 80 tomorrow. Chicago next Friday- Sunny and 54 Saturday is sunny and 61
