    I was hoping Sabato would get at least a little opportunity, so it’s a bit disappointing. First, I think we’ll probably give Lewis more chances, or this will end up being another season where we try to patch things together with internal options. I don’t really see many free agents who seem like a particularly good fit for our team, but there are quite a few players from the NPB and KBO who are hoping to make the jump to MLB through the posting system after this season. Most of them are pitchers, but there are a few hitters as well. And as for infielders... hmm... There is one third baseman who could probably also play first base...?? In the NPB, there’s Teruaki Sato. And in the KBO, there’s Roh Si-hwan. Of course, given the current posting system, I’m not sure there are enough incentives for either player to choose our team. But in the end... I guess the most important thing is money, right?

    Setting the new negotiations aside for a moment, if the Rule 5 Draft is conducted under the same rules as before, which prospects do you think will be added to our 40-man roster after the season? Kala’i Rosario and Sabato, both mentioned in the article, and Danny De Andrade, who was mentioned in the comments above? In a normal year, I feel like all of these guys would probably have had a hard time making the 40-man roster... But looking at RosterResource’s information and the 2026 stats of the players who are Rule 5 eligible, it seems like we have an unusually weak group of candidates this year. Are there any other players I’m overlooking?

    Exactly. I appreciate everything Kreidler has done for the team this season, but I agree that, with no minor-league options remaining next year, there really isn’t much reason to include him in the plans for next season. And I feel the same way about Alex Jackson. Honestly, I think it would have made more sense to move on from those two before Ross... Feddeco was the same way, and now Ross as well. Despite putting up excellent numbers in the minors, I feel like they’ve been given far too few opportunities. I really just wanted to see Ross get at least one hit.

    Wow, finally... It’s a little disappointing that Ross didn’t get many opportunities, but seeing E-Rod get called up is very exciting news!! For the first time, it really feels like a new generation is on the way. I hope these final two weeks can give us some real hope for next year.

    It’s already been three years... At this point, I have far more memories of Lewis struggling than playing well, but even so, I’m not ready to give up on him yet. He can provide some versatility at third base and first base (and maybe even second base or shortstop?), he still has one option year remaining next year, and a right-handed bat is valuable for our team. On top of that, I don’t think his arbitration salary next year will be all that expensive. So I’m hoping we give him at least one more year to see what he can do.

    I still had hope, but after today, I’m slowly reaching the point where I’m starting to give up. Looking back on the season, I feel like those two losses to Dobnak were just devastating... I never thought Dobnak would pitch this well...

    Back in 2015, Kohl Stewart was ranked No. 28 by Baseball Prospectus. Although his MLB career left a lot to be desired, he was actually one of my favorite prospects. Please mention his name as well.

    Wow, this is the news I've been waiting for. Canterino is coming back!! I've been asking GPT from time to time throughout the year to look for any recent news about Canterino, and I guess today is finally that day. I sincerely hope that he stays healthy from here on out. And, hopefully, he can continue wearing our team's uniform next year as well. Thank you so, so much for this wonderful news.

    Is that Manny? That has a nice ring to it lol.

    Wow, I just found out from this post that Ross is getting called up. I was disappointed for about a second that it wasn’t Emma, but I’m really glad Ross is finally getting a chance. I wonder what they’re going to do with the 40-man roster. I don’t think there’s anyone currently on the injured list who could be moved to the 60-day IL. So maybe Fedko?
  31. Mai.K
    I’m waiting for the call-ups of E-Rodriguez and Rojas, but knowing the Twins, it’ll probably be Gray + Woo-Suk Go getting called up instead…....
  32. Mai.K
    I mean, seriously, what are they even doing? Unless Jeffers or Caratini is injured, what the hell is the point of this ridiculous three-day stint?
  33. Mai.K
    It may be a bit too extreme in some ways, but I agree with the overall point of the post. I just hope players like Ross and Sabato get at least a few opportunities before they end up going to another team.
  34. Mai.K
    I still believe Ross is not a minor league free agent yet, but there’s no doubt that he is Rule 5 eligible. With the kind of AAA numbers he put up this year, I think he’s absolutely the type of player who could get selected in the Rule 5 Draft by another team as a versatile backup who can play shortstop and center field — which basically means he can play anywhere except pitcher and catcher. Are we really going to use Kreidler again next year? What about Gray? Probably not. If that’s the case, I think it might be a good idea to give Ross a chance in the majors right now and see what he can do. Kreidler has options remaining, and there’s already an open spot on the 40-man roster. Isn’t this a good opportunity to give Ross a shot?

    I still haven't given up on Canterino.
