Wallner's bat seem to be hitting the ball in better places.

Watching the Twins today, God knows why, thinking we just keep running the same guys out there year after year after proving they aren't major league talent. We add marginal or less talent to these mainstays and expect different results. What a pathetic organization. In for a long year(s).

Wallner's home run ties it up.

Liam Hendricks has had a decent spring. He's not pitching great right now, but as a righty he has a decent chance of making the Opening Day Roster.

He looks Horrible at bat-  new name is Royce Reacher-  he has zero sense of a strike zone , Pitchers are never gonna groove it knowing he will EXPAND

He has always had a horrible glove in Spring Training at 3rd and it has not changed - sad.

So was there a triple play to end the game?

The three games I’ve been to, he played in two of them. And his at bats have not looked good. He’s not likely going to be sent down, so I hope he comes around.

Barring injury, zero chance Lewis isn't the Twins 3rd baseman on opening day.

Yep, was quoting someone who said he needs to go to AAA, and that’s what I was saying that that’s not happening. Although, I misstated my comment … his at bats did NOT look good. Still, you are correct, he’s not being sent down to AAA.

I'd go a step further: BUST, time to move on.

Wow, just wow. Twenty spring training at-bats and he's labeled a BUST. Lewis might not be an All-Star, but next  to Buxton, he is the best bet to be a 3 WAR or better player on this team IMHO. He's healthy and running well. If his health holds, he'll be fine.

Wow just wow.  He was terrible last season and this season no difference if not worse. It is what it is.

I think Lewis can be a solid starter, but in comparison to the superstar we all hoped for, I think he is a bust.

That being said, I think he's fine to stick around.  Just not going to be the one to lead us to the promised land.
