Corner OF is/was where the Twins’ prospects are/were—Rooker, Kirilloff and Larnach—with Wallner a year behind. None of them has stepped forward yet and Kirilloff might have a chronic injury and Rooker was traded. I won’t make a judgment yet on either player still with the Twins, but it is concerning.

We aren't expecting miracles; we're hoping against hope because the rookies are all we have. There ain't nobody else. Open to other ideas if you got 'em. Agree with you on the unis though.  

Aren't those song lyrics?

 

Ain't nobody here but us Rookies... er, chickens.

 

That's it. Let's enjoy us some chicken.

I hope other pitchers and teams are not paying attention to Buxton's inability to not swing at the out off zone high fastballs. Center of the plate, but way high. Or.... that Buxton can adapt and lay off them now. Those at bats were ugly against Giolito. Giolito sure noticed.

The Archer/Winder piggy back gonna last the rest of the season?

Maybe they will eventually swap the sequencing on this. Winder is looking solid.

From the way Gladden describes it, Archer is getting by on grit, gumption and not much else. I’d be ok if they swapped roles too

I don't think Martin is ready to contribute, at least not until after the trade deadline, and I think he's probably limited to 2nd base and left field. It doesn't make any sense to bring in an equal hitter at best (for now anyway) in Martin and bench/DH Kepler when he is one of the best RF defenders in the game. 


Maybe so, but my perspective is that the Twins are probably too tied to giving lots of ABs to mediocre veteran players. Time to start finding what’s next
