  1. Keaschall is struggling with both hitting and fielding. As I mentioned some time ago, there seem to be more popups to the right side of the field than solid contact. Slide Clemens into second base where both his offensive and defensive are better.
  2. It's time for Royce to come home and bring his "buddy" with him. He can be Culpepper's mentor on how to break into the big leagues.
  3. Extend Jennings to begin the climb up to what will eventually be the "floor level" salary requirement of the new CBA.
  4. It may be time for a Keaschall reset at St. Paul. A lot of popups to the right side and his defense makes Julien look like a gold glover. Perhaps Lewis back to third and Lee to second to see if that works better.
  5. Beginning to worry about Keaschall's bat. A lot of pop ups to the right side is usually an indication of a slow bat or misread of a pitch.
  6. Extend him for four years, long enough for him to help with Tait's development.
  7. With everything else that is wrong with this team, Buxton is the last thing to worry about.
  8. Why is there not a discussion of moving him to first base? Mauer did it, as do a lot of catchers. His offensive numbers could increase if he does not have to take the beating behind home plate.
  9. As an Indiana University graduate, I was told for years that our football program would never succeed in the tough Big Ten conference, that we were a basketball school and a minor bowl game was our best hope each season. We hire this unknown coach from a small school (James Madison) who told us all that "google me, I win". He goes 11-2 his first year, makes the Division 1 playoffs, only losing to the two teams in the national championship game. This year they are 5-0 ranked fifth in the country. It can be done if you hire the right people.
  10. The first step in getting quality coaches would be the dismissal of Tommy Watkins.
  11. He wasn't the total problem, but he did not help the matter. Falvey needs to be the next one to go, followed hopefully by new ownership so that this franchise can regain its footing.
  12. Am I the only one who thinks that resigning Vasquez at a smaller contract would not be the worst thing we could do? Also, I have had enough of Larnac and Wallner.
