Ryan Kreidler is Turning Back into a Pumpkin at the Plate

I truly don't understand the desire to get Culpepper up?  Without a move - who goes?  I prefer to leave him where he is until necessary at this point 

He's possibly a much better hitter than Kriedler, who becomes super utility guy. Trade or DFA Bell. Or trade Martin.

I totally understand the Twins Daily cycle of writing an article, it getting edited, then get scheduled for publication, but I still can't help but chuckle at the timing of this article's release.

What a weird sight...

A negative article and the comment section being overwhelmingly positive.

Agree he's not been great lately, but on the year his OPS+ is better than the following guys who play lower on the defensive spectrum:

Bell (who, as we know, has no position)
Keaschall
Martin
Lewis

...and he's only a point behind Brooks Lee.

Since the All Star break the lineup is a vegetable stand of pumpkins in the batter's box.  Until Culpepper or someone else is ready though, I'll take Kreidler at SS.
