    I think to be successful, teams need several to try to fill this role. Amongst Rogers, Duffey, Colome, Robles, Stashak, Alcala, the Twins look to have some decent options.
  2. yeahyabetcha
    The reality is that his major league production has been underwhelming. I lean towards seeing what he does this year before extending him.
  3. yeahyabetcha
    He looks little or a bust to me.
  4. yeahyabetcha
    I still expect Arráez is the opening day LF and Kirilloff won’t make the opening day roster. I am hoping they choose to go with 4 bench players, Cave and Jeffers look to be locks, which would leave room for one of the 3 mentioned above, or Drew Maggi?? And then one other, Rooker??
  5. yeahyabetcha
    I expect a .240 average, 20-25 home runs, .725 ops., .315 on-base %, anything above that would be a bonus
  6. yeahyabetcha
    Because he is not Grifffey, Acuna or Sota. While some are ready earlier, most are better served gaining experience in the minors.
  7. yeahyabetcha
    It might be a good idea to see him perform at the AA level before calling him a replacement for Buxton when he gets injured
  8. yeahyabetcha
    It would not surprise me if he never gets an major league at bat
  9. yeahyabetcha
    It seems to be all about approach. Instead of trying to be Mike Trout, he should have been trying to be more like Ricky Henderson. I hope I am wrong, but I don’t see him putting it all together.
  10. yeahyabetcha
    Given The likelihood that Donaldson and Simmons are going to need multiple games off, I will be surprised if a Gordon or Riddle type backup is not on opening day 26 man
  11. yeahyabetcha
    Spring training and injuries might decide things, but the Twins may consider Arraez, Cave, Garlick, Broxton and maybe even Kirilloff as better left field options.
  12. yeahyabetcha
    Rooker does seem to appear to be the most major league ready of the prospects. The problem is with the signing of Cruz, he would have to make the roster as the everyday left fielder or as one of the 4 bench players. Given his lack of defensive abilities, I don’t see him making the opening day 25.
  13. yeahyabetcha
    Could Arraez be the opening day left fielder and lead off batter? And then stay out there. Then Austidillo can be left off for more of an utility infielder
  14. yeahyabetcha
    What are the chances that Arraez is the opening day left fielder and is used more of an outfielder to start the season and less of a utility fielder?
  15. yeahyabetcha
    I would much rather have Ehire in as the 26th roster spot than Willians.
  16. yeahyabetcha
    What I don’t get is how Marwin, who is twice the player that this guy ever will be, is vilified by most posters, and this guy is seen as a legitimate backup.
  17. yeahyabetcha
    He should not be on the 40 man roster. Although he has the ability to fill several roles...he does all of them at a below average level.
  18. yeahyabetcha
    I go back and forth on bringing Cruz back. On one hand he was the Twins best hitter the last two years and based on that he definitely would be worth another reasonable, 1 year deal. On the other hand, maybe it is time to see if Rooker, who would likely be the odd man out, is ready for the bigs.

    WHAT'S NEXT?

    yeahyabetcha commented on mike8791's blog entry in mike8791's Blog

    “Best signing since Josh Donaldson “ ?? I would rate year 1 if that as a complete disaster.
  20. yeahyabetcha
    No to both. Spending money for the sake spending money is not a very good strategy. Rosenthal is not helping when he is on the DL. Would not offer Hand two years. And I don’t understand the fascination with Yates
  21. yeahyabetcha
    I don’t quite understand the venom towards Marwin on this site. I get 2020 was a down year and maybe he is cooked, but before that was pretty decent as a super utility guy. Keke had a down 2020 as well and probably not the career Marwin has had, but yet it seems most are all in favor of signing him.
  22. yeahyabetcha
    Some interesting suggestions but most are either unproven, not Twins property (Baez) or horrible in the field (Austudillo and Rooker), probably not what they should be looking for in super utility spot
  23. yeahyabetcha
    I find it odd that many of the same people bashing this trade are now upset the Twins didn’t $50 million plus on Hendricks. I guess hindsight is 20/20
  24. yeahyabetcha
    Who exactly are the cheaper internal candidates that can field average or better at 1b, 3b, 2b and corner outfield?
  25. yeahyabetcha
    All recently injured or ineffective. Not the type of starting pitcher I would be seeking. If this is the best, go young or go bullpen
