    If he is more than just hype, he should be in the big show mid 2024 or penciled in starting in 2025. He will still only be 24 yrs old with a fresh arm. What a great draft pick!!

    Miranda could be the team MVP this year. He changed his diet and worked his ass off to become an allstar. Doesn’t matter where he plays in the field if he hits ba .290 , ops of .990. With 30+hr. He could be around and raking for a decade.
  3. Fatbat
    We need more guys with .400+OBP. Stop trying to change every guy into 30+hr!

    Lets ask this question every year for the next 10 yrs and track how the answers change….
  5. Fatbat
    Gallo might have 23 hr’s by the trade deadline and a .260 ba

    We have lots of really good young arms. One or two will transition to the BP this year and ear up the 6th, 7th and 8th innings. We don't need to keep signing older retreads.
  7. Fatbat
    I wonder if Dobnak is gonna get a shot at working the 7th inning to get 3 ground ball outs….
  8. Fatbat
    Both SP staffs look very solid with depth in the minors. Its really all about who stays healthy and performs above expectations.
  9. Fatbat
    @Brandon Spot on. Carlos got his payday (what the market would bare) and he get to play with guys that he gets to mentor.
  10. Fatbat
    @LA VIkes Fan thats a lot to digest. I was just looking on the MLB app depth chart for the twins. It has Miranda starting 3rd, 1st and DH. Seems like they think we need more players.
  11. Fatbat
    When Royce Lewis is playing, he should be lead off. I’d use Polanco there on the other days. Gallo should be batting somewhere behind AK which puts him right in the #7 or 8 spot and it’ll be entertaining to listen to some clamoring for him to move up when he hits an HR and everyone else will shrug because he also stuck out twice and walked once in that game. Limit his PA’s to limit his K’s. Gordon is a great #9 guy cause he can set the 3rd inning table for the big boys Polanco/Correa/Buxton/Ak/Miranda etc. limit Gordon to 500PA for the year. He will still be super productive but shouldn’t be the face of the franchise. Insert Julien anywhere in the top 6 if his bat indeed plays at the MLB level.

    They should be fully motivated to play great in St. Paul and basically force the team to bring them across the river. Its just a matter of time when someone is tearing up AAA.
  13. Fatbat
    Lack of college stats would be my guess.
  14. Fatbat
    I agree on Mahle if he can stay healthy. Extend Lopez as well so we dont have to dislike the trade of Arraez even more than we first did. I’d rather see a couple of young guys make the show out of spring training than see another vet brought in.
  15. Fatbat
    Im always overly excited about young pitchers. It would be pretty cool to see Varland and SWR stick with the twins but thats a double edged sword because it would mean that the injury bug bit hard.
  16. Fatbat
    Can someone please teach Julien how to play defense…. Somewhere on the diamond? The guy can hit but he needs a couple more years of learning a defensive skillset.
  17. Fatbat
    One name that may go back into the 2024 list is Keoni Cavaco. He needs a developmental spurt tho.
  18. Fatbat
    He needs to find the strike zone and not get behind in the count. Mechanicals and confidence and he will be just fine.
  19. Fatbat
    If things go sideways (i doubt it) Gray will be for sale to a contender. What do you think would be a good return for him? A late 1st rd draft pick?
  20. Fatbat
    Winning will cure everything that is wrong with the twins. Fans will always have a favorite if the team is exciting and winning. They are finally paying enough talented guys to be competitive and developing the homegrown kids. There will be a new “fan favorite” but it will always suck that Arraez got traded.
  21. Fatbat
    I thought that changed but obviously not.
  22. Fatbat
    I really like him. I hope he pitches against us someday and we light him up. Lol
  23. Fatbat
    Both Celestino and TL will start in AAA. Ober will be on the 26 roster as a 6th starter for april and either he or maeda will throw some BP innnings. Probably just have buck, gordon, gallo, kep and taylor in the outfield most of the season. AK, Polanco, C4, Miranda and Farmer as IF, 2 catchers. Thats only 12 position players and 14 pitchers. Something will change when Lewis makes the roster.
  24. Fatbat
    We wont measure the success of 2023 by comparing HRs or wins to the 2019 bomba squad. We need to measure it against the 87 and 91 WS champs teams.
  25. Fatbat
    Buxton needs to learn how to RISP. Thats his job. No to Gallo anywhere before #6
