  1. Top 3 defense thanks to Flores and some hard working guys that other teams didn’t believe in. If we keep teams to 17 pts, we will play in the super bowl. Jefferson is gonna be ok
  2. Messy games but its to be expected with all these young guys. Still way better than watching Gallo strike out.
  3. Juliens best position is DH/PH. Every thing else should just be fill in.
  4. Small sample size. He is gong on a heater in sept/oct. People need to calm down 🤣
  5. Welp, he is gonna be in his mid 30’s and has not played close to 150 games so why would that change now? No more MAT’s and Margot’s. The kids are ready. Kiersey Jr. can bridge commitee along with Martin when Buck is on the IL. Erod might win the CF job in March if buck is still not healthy (again). So thats the earliest being 3/‘25 and its a possibility that the same could be said for Jenkins in ‘26. It sure seems like time is gonna pass Buxton by.
  6. Maybe Falvine are feeling the pinch to accelerate the development of some high end talent. Ownership clearly doesn’t want to spend on expensive FA’s. Trades have been all over the success board. Some downright terrible ugly. When these kids are ready, room will be made for them on the 26 man.
  7. By 2027, buck will be the 5th OF’r and semi full time DH. Besides Erod, Jenkins, Wallner and Larnauch, Ka’lai Rosario will be bopping MLB balls around target field.
  8. SF gave up 19 pts to the jets. Their Dfence is average and we can exploit it this coming Sunday. When their offense is off the field, SF isn't that great.
  9. As of week 1, Vikes have the best defense in the NFL.
  10. We need to score more runs and not worry about where guys play in the field.
  11. We are likely to become a younger team in ‘25 and that wont lend itself to running away with the central. No way the Pohlads spend much more on player salary. We are forever stuck in moneyball.
  12. All great points! These 3 guys seem to be fast tracking to MLB in their early 20’s!!! Our drafting and development has been amazing the last 5 years. I see the Pohlads going the cheap route and keeping the younger/ more inexpensive players and trading away guys in their prime earning years. I don’t see either of these guys not being in a Twins uniform in ‘26. 1 or 3 of them in ‘25. Erod will likely get a starting role out of camp next spring. Keaschall will be one injury away from a call up in ‘25. Jenkins will be in St. Paul in Aug 25 if he continues to tear up milb pitching. The next 2 guys chasing their way to AAA are K Culpepper and K Rosario. If they start out hot in ‘25, add them to the AAA logjamb.
  13. Quite possible but he is an asset that wont win an arbitration case and is still twins property that could be included in a trade as soon as he is healthy and plays his first game. Even his badly damaged reputation as always hurt is worth a sweetner in a trade.
  14. Erod had a hit, BB, R and probably did alot more last night for the Saints. He is healthy and has MLB talent. If its not ‘24, ‘25 is gonna be his year and we won’t care when buck gets off the IL. Right behind him is a healthy Jenkins who is making MiLB pitchers scared. Very soon, we will have a very young and star studded OF. It could happen as fast as 10/11 months from now. Jenkins, Erod, Wallner, Buck and Larnauch. AK is gonna play a lot of 1B and DH will be a revolving door position.
  15. Welp, Buck out Kepler out. Helman and Kiersey are in for a cup of coffee. I would imagine that someone is scheduled to get injured this weekend so pencil Erod into the lineup next week 🤣🤷🏼‍♂️
  16. As much as I wanted the twins to sign a snell or monty 9 months ago, I like the fact that we have tons of young pitching prospects coming soon and we keep drafting more of them. It’s sad that Povich slipped away in a terrible trade 13 months ago. Not to mention the guys we lost in ‘22 when Mahle turned into a bumb. Varland and Paddack might need to spend most of next season in the bullpen. Use the talent the best way they can!! Trading for sub par pitching is just dumb.
  17. Takes some guys a bit to figure it out. Ober will be fine. Pipeline will be fine…. even without Cade Povich and others that were traded away….
  18. The lack of runs and the oooo fers on RISP is embarrassing.
  19. They will probably go 4 for 9 combined with a BB and a few rbi tomorrow. Erod is gonna have fun playing in the same lineup as buck!
  20. He sure seems like more than just a warm body. I hope he stays healthy and holds his own so we never have to see Margot and Farmer again strike out or hit into a DP.
  21. As of right now, we are 4.5 (5tie breaker) games from having the best record and #1 seed in the A.L. We should be playing for that. 7 teams are in that mix. We have as good of a shot at it as any of the 7.
