Don't Forget About Jose Miranda

To get more at bats for Vazquez? That wouldn't interest me at all.

I'd only be interested in finding extra spots for Jeffers to play if Camargo or Cossetti are crushing it and ready for a promotion. And from the sounds of it, Camargo would likely be the one playing a secondary position.

I was not suggesting he catch less in order to play 1B.  The idea would be for him to play more games by also playing some 1st base.  The theory being playing 1B is not as strenuous as catching.  Watching Vasquz bat was painful.

Miranda will likely be a solid everyday 1st baseman when healthy. The Twins should not give up on him.  He is an affordable bat that should be given a chance. His upside is too great to not see what he can do when healthy.  

What a story of depth and talent though. To have players like Miranda and Gordon on the bubble shows how deep of a team the Twins have.
