  1. Right now 3B is Lewis's & 2B is Lee's. Castro is the Utility Player. Temporarily, Lee may shift over to 3B & Castro subs at 2B. But long term it's Lewis's & after that Correa will move there. Lee is our main short & long-term replacement for Correa at SS so I don't see a path for Lee to be our future 3B. I don't see Lee having problems moving around the INF. If he'd be moved to the OF then most certainly would have trouble adjusting & would affect his hitting.
  2. Hope this isn't typical of what we'll see from Duran during the season
  3. Yeah me too. But maybe could be used for mop up until he proves himself.
  4. I walked away & DET score 3. How did that happen? Bummer
  5. Balazovik picked up by DET. They like to pick up Twins rejects. But Castro was a nice MN pick up from DET.
  6. I can't follow the game but what I can listen Ober is having his usual good game
  7. Good baseball execution, 1st run
  8. I can't get gameday today, I miss it.
  9. Again my point that you want to debate on is not about their ability to play 3B. It's about the condition of Miranda's arm & the health management to keep Miranda on the field. The fact that Keaschal shouldn't be playing OF now isn't because he can't normally play there. It's a matter of health management. Grant it that they are at different places in their recovery but the idea is the same.
  10. As always you miss my point. The point I made is that Miranda's arm is overtaxed at 3B, especially since his injuries from playing there. Miranda is no Bergman, in that moving him to 1B is a gigantic waste of talent. Which could be only temporary until he is 100% again. Again my point is the condition of Miranda's arm that asks for no pissing contest between him & Lee. For me, stats have no meaning if underlying conditions aren't present. Which I want no debate on the matter, it's my opinion & has no meaning on this thread.
  11. I'd love to agree with you Jocko. I'd like to see Martin have more playing time at the MLB level but not under these conditions he's playing under. Switch him to 2B & let him compete there. More than likely it's too late, so I'd send him down to be reacquainted at 2B & get his hitting back. Julien is a defensive liability, he needs to be sent down to AAA to learn 1B & keep on working on adjusting his hitting. At this point, I'd take Gasper over Julien, which isn't saying much.
  12. Both are RH, Bader was acquired as a RH bat to cover the corners & replace Buck when injured. I wrote Keirsey should but Falvey acquired Bader, every player acquired by Falvey, will get every opportunity to shine & will play more than they should. While our own capable inhouse players will get the shaft.
  13. Keirsey is the only true LH CFer, he also had a good spring training. He should have the nod, leaving camp.
  14. Julien should be sent down to AAA to learn 1B & continue his hitting adjustment. We really don't need Gasper at 1B, 2B or catcher & as they like to say spring training doesn't count but Falvey will give him every opportunity to succeed no matter if we need him or not. Unfortunately, because of Lewis, 3B Lee & Castro should be our 3B options, Lee & Castro our main 2B options with Gasper. Keirsey is our LH CFer to sub Buxton to give him a break against RHPs.
  15. If we want to compete in the postseason, we need Lewis. His soft-tissue injuries are not uncommon after surgeries. IMO they should decrease in severity & frequency. IMO trading Lewis is senseless talk. He'll recover & hopefully Baldelli is able to take us to the postseason where anything can happen,
  16. Yes, I do. But I think Lee is better. Twins fired the old INF coach maybe the new one can help him correct his throwing. When Lewis is out, I hope they put Lee at 3B instead of pushing their luck with Miranda.
  17. I forgot to mention him in this text but I believe Castro is more established & more needed as a super utility player than settled at 2B.
  18. Hopefully it's not that bad but yes it's a bad beginning for him after having a good ST.
  19. Twins lost but still an enjoyable game
  20. After a taste of fairness, the league will demand it. NYY will fight it,
  21. Watkins lost again, seems like he doesn't know what to do.
