We will never “know” but it’s definitely manipulation so since we are past the lose eligibility date, they can still manipulate no more than 128 PA. Expect Jenkins to be called up this week. We are only a game out of the playoffs so he can immediately impact the race and playoff service time doesn’t count.
The Twins definitely need more skilled players so saying TL, AM or LK are blocking WJ, is a bit of a stretch based on what may be a short term hot streak. AM is not on one atm and should be used only for late game PR and in game situational matchups.
A run at next years ROY will be exciting but so should this years playoff run!
