zamboni Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 A RF playing Left??? Yep, big stretch. A pitcher trying to be a catcher is a stretch. A RF playing left- not so much. See ball, CATCH ball shoulda been his Twins commercial last year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zamboni Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 delmon, could definately get around the bases faster...all of Cuddys trips and summersaults would slow him down Hey Sled, after Cuddyers triple friday night, would you bet on that now?? He was actually flying around them bases, don't think Mr Young could do that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zamboni Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 i can't take anyone who thinks cuddy is faster than young seriously. If Delmons so fast, and I mean seriously, why do they always pinch run him when the games on the line? Must be either bad base running or lack of speed- so which is it? They just pich ran him last night, and it wasn't the first time. I can bet Young would not have legged out that triple Cuddy did friday night.

SledNeck Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Condolences to the Young family. Quote:CHICAGO — Bonnie Young, mother of Twins outfielder Delmon Young, died Monday night at her home in Camarillo, Calif. Young left the Twins after Thursday's game to be with his mother, who battled pancreatic and liver cancer for 3 1/2 months. Young will remain away from the team until after his mother's funeral, expected to be Saturday in Vicksburg, Miss. Dmitri Young, Delmon's older brother and an infielder with the Washington Nationals who has been out all season with a hip strain, also was at the family's home this week. Delmon Young has been on baseball's family emergency list since Friday, allowing the Twins to call up catcher Jose Morales to replace him. But the seven-day maximum stay will run out before his return, likely forcing the Twins to play a couple of games this weekend with a 24-man roster.

Stratosman Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 I know what's going on in his personal life, but, uh, yeah. He looks lost at the plate and in the field. 6 so's in 8 at bats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's bad, maybe he's just not ready to play...hasn't done much this year. Tied for 2nd last in XBH with minimum of 80 at bats or something like that.

fishin58 Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 He still makes me cringe when someone hits the ball to him Why because he doesnt have one of the worst fielding percentages like Cuddles?Delmon 5 bombs in his last 10 games. Wish he had played more..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zamboni Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Hes playing everyday now. How much more is there? There is no comparing these guys, I would rather have Cuddyer on my team anyday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greebs Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 I'm surprised that delmon is only that few rbi's behind cuddy given that cuddy's had a pretty decent season for extra base hits. maybe they need to move cuddy to batting 1st in the lineup as he really is a good batter when nobody is on base but his numbers drop considerably once a baserunner is on. given the weakness of the bottom of the lineup, he'd get a lot of opportunities to bat with bases empty.
