    How about the former Twins that went on to other teams to develop into good pitchers- Megill, Headrick, and Hoffman. Why weren't Twins able to develop them when they were Twins?

    Thanks for article, Nick. Most of time, the average fan knows little of pitching coaches background except maybe where they coached last.

    To me, this is Twins saying they will carry Sabato on 40 man over the winter. Would the Twins be worse off with Sabato at 1B compared to Lewis? We have not seen Sabato against MLB pitching, but Lewis does not set the bar very high.

    Don't think they need a fall guy, Twins had year that was expected.

    I noticed Twins only have 3 players signed for next year, post arbitration players- Buxton, Lopez, and Caritini. Wondered how Twins compare to league. There are 5 teams with less than 3, Marlins and Cards with zero, Twins are in a group of 4 teams with 3. Dodgers lead with 13, total of 7 teams at 9+. It does not seem very surprising, high payroll teams have more experienced players signed for next year with low payroll teams relying on younger less experienced players.

    Twins should be sellers at deadline. Wishlist includes potential high leverage relief pitcher. Twins should not be trading prospects for established bullpen help, that won't move the needle for playoff chances this year.

    Options for RH batters/LH batters a little out of balance presently. Can bat 9 RH bats against a LH pitcher with another RH bat on bench. Can only bat 6 LH batters against a RH pitcher- 3 of those switch hitters. I would like to see what Fedko can do, so my choice would be to send Martin to AAA and promote a LH bat. I prefer Rhoden at this time, Bell has heated up hitting, not may ABs for Wallner at DH and Wallner's defense has not improved at AAA. Move Clemens back to more of a utility player getting playing time at 1B, 2B, RF, CF against RH pitching. Gray presently safe, waiting for Culpepper to get healthy and some time at AAA to get timing back. I have no problem keeping Jenkins at AAA rest of year.

    I agree with most of what has been said here. Twins have 3 free agents at end of year- Jeffers, Bell, and Rogers. I would try to trade all 3 at trade deadline. Jeffers not resigning with Twins, Bell and Rogers are not part of Twins future plans. If trade Bell and if Wallner gets back on track, Wallner DH. Ryan trade value high, trade if get enough in return, no if not sufficient offers. Ober, not likely to get much for him, and can't have too much pitching- keep if trade Ryan. Larnach, probably not getting much for him, but time to move on so can see what young players have. Get Culpepper up with Twins when healthy, Gray expendable.
  29. 4twinsJA
    This last injury was very disappointing. Rodriguez definitely would have been called up by now, probably when Wallner went down. Hopefully he can get healthy and can still get some playing time in later in season.
  30. 4twinsJA
    Besides Culpepper, not really an infielder pushing for callup at AAA.
  31. 4twinsJA
    Hitting always drops off the year after a wrist fx, look at Rooker, took him a couple of years to get back to hitting like he was before the injury. Confident Luke's hitting will improve 2nd half.
  32. 4twinsJA
    Winokur has really filled out this past year. Agree 3B and OF are most likely, but what about 1B. 6'6" target, power bat, already can field ground balls. I really like his development, may see some time at AA this year.
  33. 4twinsJA
    I don't think anyone is saying Fedko is the next Twins AllStar outfielder, just that he has proven himself in minors and deserves an opportunity at the MLB level. Maybe Fedko doesn't produce, but it is time to see if he can.
  34. 4twinsJA
    I am excited to see how Mendez progresses. He has probably moved up to next call up to cover an injury to outfielder.
  35. 4twinsJA
    Would like to see some of these position players at AAA get an opportunity with Twins. The top 6 hitters in May are at AAA. Unfortunately only one of the 6 are on 40 man-Mendez, so calling up any of the others would require letting someone else go. Trade Bell soon, has not been a good pickup. Outman is also a candidate for release/trade. Is Wallner done?
