Keep Lee up - just keep him at the bottom of the order and preferably use him at 3B. At some point, it has to be sink or swim for young players. Sending him to AAA at this point...not sure what it accomplishes.

Maybe it accomplishes wins for the Minneapolis club.

Do it for Bailey!

Ha. This is a good one...

Castro ?  can hit - i think we will see him at 2b alot ,  Lee is better suited backing up 3b and s.s. and Bader seems to be  in l.f. alot

True. I just don't know if his replacement is going to necessarily mean more wins and if he truly is a building block, then they need to find it out. But yeah, it would be nice if he started to produce.

Luke will be the Future at 2b ,  kids a born to succeed guy

[thelanges5]

Castro back to the dirt and call up McCrusher to play in the OF

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Correa...ugh.

[thelanges5]

Paddack tomorrow and Joe on Saturday. 

[BrokenCompass]

Castro and Lewis look rusty as heck. 

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

WTF was that. That was a foul ball. Or...not.

Correa barely hitting the top of the ball all week

[BrokenCompass]

Kremer and his 8.31 road ERA is tossing an absolute gem against our feeble Twins. 

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Approach at the plate is just dreadful today.

Castro hitting well today. His average is worse than Lee.

A whiff. Upper cut swing on balls in on the hands rarely result in contact.

Do you send Kiersey back down? Send Lee down? If McCusker comes up, you would essentially have five outfielders with Kiersey. I like McCusker a lot, though.

The back of their pen is actually pretty good so I'm not sure that's going to be the solution for the Twins...unfortunately.

[BrokenCompass]

Ooooh, Jax time. 

Morneau says "the stuff is there and you can trust him in these spots". 

Let's see. 

[tony&rodney]

Good time to move Lee to 3B and put a player at 2B.

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Wow. Jax back out today instead of another inning for Topa. Bold move, Rocco. Bold move.

were gonna find out , !!!

Jax 3 days in a row😬😬😬😬

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Keirsey shouldn't be on the roster. It would be fine if we're talking expanded rosters for the playoffs but not at this point. He's an automatic out and I don't think the threat of him as a pinch runner is enough to keep his spot.

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

If we get Manfred ball - would we see....Alcala?!?!?

Jax missed his spot badly there. Lucky it wasn't clobbered into the RF seats.
