  1. 100% He was our next closer and homegrown on top of it! As of now, we don't even have a plan going forward.
  2. I am waiting for the mods to choke on carrots for their bashing of the Caratini signing. Talk about rubes running a site SMH. Do they have Alec Jackson huggy dolls?
  3. Exactly! Follow the Brewers script and lock up bats and trade pitchers before free agency. Ryan should be moved before the deadline IMO
  4. And since when was Jackson a legit backup? He hasn't ever hit in the majors and no other team wanted him. Jeffers is in his walk year too.
  5. Is there seriously no interest in Larnach anywhere? Everyone knows the Twins have 3 deserving guys waiting at AAA and yet all will wallow in St Paul until an injury. We have little to be excited about this year, let's get a good look at a few of these prospects.
  6. Kent was moved to full fulltime RP last year with Cleveland's AAA team and the #s look good. Have no clue if he was used in high pressure situations
  7. Having spent 6 days at camp, I believe Culpepper is our best option at SS right now. His range is superior to Lee, his arm looks better than Lee's and his bat has been far better than Lee. Maybe I'm being too hard on Brooks, but he looks like a super utility guy and not a MLB starting SS
  8. Didn't say anything about Bell, I like the signing
  9. Talked with an Asst GM from another team recently about Abel and this was his opinion. He said Abel gets flustered easily and couldn't handle the pressure in Philly. He thought Abel would do better in MN with less pressure on him and definitely not as much scrutiny as he got in Philly. Sure hope he is correct
  10. I know Tampa offered him $7 and Littel's agent wanted over $10. At this point, you could probably get Littell for under $10m
  11. Honestly, I don't care what kind of numbers you put out there, Arraez can hit a flipping baseball. As we are moving closer to sanity from all the moneyball dumb decisions, GMs still will employ guys that don't strikeout 100+ times for the hope of 15 HRs. See balll, hit ball, advance the runner. I would love to watch 9 Arraez type bats in our lineup
  12. Still gotta have Bux in there! Those 3 plus Bux and Wallner and you cover the OF, 1B and DH.
  13. I didn't realize he made it to big leagues this year and discovered what a bat is
  14. Where there is smoke, there is fire. Boston is strong in the OF, which doesn't really match up with our needs. Whichever way we go with Ryan and Lopez, hope Galvey takes a page from the Brewers playbook. Go get guys that can contribute next year, not in 2028.
  15. Why trade for an 18 yo SS when you have an offense and rotation that can compete? Trade to fill holes, not just top prospects.
  16. Spot on! Why does it have to be someone from the Twins family? How about grabbing a coach from a successful team? Winning is a culture and most Twinks haven't won since college or A ball. Sure as hell hope Derek has a great pitching and hitting coaches in mind
  17. How do you make Wallner look great? Bring up the gross name of Alan Roden! God forbid, leave Roden in St Paul and ride ERod. Give Wallner a 1B glove now and have him take 500 grounders a day, he can't be a regular OF if we want to actually win. As for the bat, is there a way to help batters with pitch recognition? If so, he needs it! He has the power, but you don't need to swing for Target Center every time. Next coach and hitting coach have their work cut out. Would love to see him hit .240, with 30 HR and 90+ RBIs.
  18. Biggest part with either, they would be cheap hires and that is the #1 criteria for the Pohlads
  19. GG was gone before we made it to CR game this year. How is he regarded on defense? Are his 8 SBs an indication of his speed or just a lack of attempts?
  20. Would probably cost the cheap a_s Pohlads a few thousand bucks if Outman were cut. I'm surprised they haven't went with a 24 man roster to save $$$
  21. Thought the same, nothing but a click bait crap article
