Projecting the Minnesota Twins’ Shortstop Plan for the Next Five Years

[Trov]

Personally, I think the FO feels Culpepper can bring what CC was bringing overall.  CC bat was not doing much, and his defense was falling to average to below average.  So CC was becoming very over paid. If Culpepper can be above average at both defense and offense he will be a nice fill in.

Brooks Lee doesn't look good today at shortstop versus KC. I'm not sure he projects but we will need to be patient.

Culpepper is the obvious heir apparent at shortstop, given his great arm,  excellent defense, and offensive profile that shows some power.
