That Sox team would be dreadful outside of Sale and Q.

QUOTE (Scoots @ Apr 13, 2018 -> 02:03 PM) It's a wonder why they didn't just push it to like 3 o'clock central time. Sure you'll lose fans but the game will at least have a reasonable shot at getting pplayed. Ehh. Its not exactly sunny.

It has actually stopped snowing / sleeting here in Mpls, and Radar looks relatively clear for next 2 hours, but picks back up early evening.

QUOTE (Sarava @ Apr 13, 2018 -> 12:37 PM) Yeah, it's bizarre that they wouldn't at least put a retractable roof on a baseball stadium up there. I think it was the difference between the stadium being financially feasible and not. Its not like adding a retractable roof is a small expense. But I agree....definitely a climate that a retractable roof would be ideal.
-
Twins execs have already stated earlier in the season (during their home opener series) that the Twins will not be playing at US Bank Stadium this season. I doubt that has changed in the last 10 days.

Already snowing heavily here in Minneapolis.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Apr 12, 2018 -> 04:30 PM) I’m guessing they don’t want to stick with an eight man bullpen for very long and there’s little risk of losing Volstad when they decide to outright him back to Charlotte. I guess that makes some sense.

QUOTE (Scoots @ Apr 12, 2018 -> 03:59 PM) Or better yet, why not Milwaukee? It's closer There's a roof, and the Brewers are away this weekend in New York. Weather isn't supposed to be all that great in Chicago this weekend either, at least not for playing baseball. I think they made these kinds of accommodations for the Astros last year after the hurricane. Because the Twins are never going to punt 3 or 4 home games. Why would they? I'm going tonight (I live in Mpls). I have tickets to all 4 games. See basically no chance Friday and Saturday gets played. Sunday should be clear of rain and snow by 10am-noonish, but it will be 30 degrees and will have precipitated for the better part of the previous 48 hours. So there is a chance for Sunday, but probably worse than a coin flip.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 12, 2018 -> 04:22 PM) Hot take...Volstad lasts 2-3 weeks on the active roster, trade return is nil No one is going to acquire Chris Volstad in 2-3 weeks.
-
Please give the Charlotte opening to Guerrero or Stephens. Both have nothing left to prove in AA.
-
Don't see what Volstad accomplishes over Gomez, but whatever.
-
QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 12, 2018 -> 08:26 AM) Vieira, Rondon (already up), Stephens, Guerrero...even Adams and Fry will get shots before Volstad. If they go with vets, it will be Gomez or Ross, Jr., first. I HIGHLY doubt they're going to go with 4 lefties in the pen (Ross). It is Vieira or Gomez, I suspect.
-
Nice. Didn't really see the point. Wasn't very good, and it already 30. He was never going to be an asset via trade, or a part of the future.

QUOTE (Lip Man 1 @ Apr 7, 2018 -> 09:11 PM) They need to cut this stiff. One day you’ll learn that cutting controllable players isn’t something teams do. Minaya is nothing special, but he’s proven he’s capable of getting major league batters out and there is absolutely zero reason to “cut him”.
-
Lets get this one.
-
76-80 sounds right. KC and Detroit suck. The Twins still aren't anything special. We play those three teams 35% of the time. I could see 30+ wins against against those 3. Sub 20 games under .500 against the rest of the league seems....almost too low. We'll see.
-
Guesses on lineup? I'll go: 2B Moncada 3B Sanchez 1B Abreu RF Avi LF Delmonico DH Davidson C Castillo SS Anderson CF Engel

QUOTE (TheTruth05 @ Mar 28, 2018 -> 09:35 AM) Cordell I think. This.
-
HOLY MOLY! ITS ALIVE!
-
Has he appeared in the IF at all yet?
-
He is young enough to bounce back from this (assuming torn achilles), but man...poor kid.
-
I am hoping for Leury. I'd be cool with Cordell. Engel kind of sucks.
-
Hahn continues to stockpile arms.
