Twins (Ober) vs Orioles (Baz): 3/29/26, 12:35 pm CDT
jaimedude replied to C-Gangster's topic in Archived Game Threads
To me neither Outman or Clemons are very good MLB hitters. Clemons was lousy the enteire series and he got a lot of at-bats. Cody is not a lead-off guy, he doesn't make enough contact or walk enough. -
I saw Culpepper play one game with Wichita last year, and first thoughts were that guy not only looks like a short stop, he fields like a short stop, has the tools of a short stop, and he did not look scared. He's the best short stop prospect the Twins have had in some time. Culpepper is gonna help the Twins, hopefully this year. He has a presence about him and is confident. I like that. I like Culpepper a lot, maybe because I got to see him, both him and Walker Jenkins have a swagger that they can play. I will stop hijacking the Tristan Gray thread now. These guys coming up with the Saints are better prospects than we are used to seeing.
-
Pitching was great today.
-
We have 3 guys in AAA Saints better defensive players than Larnach.
-
Can we be done with Larnach and his sad weak arm already.
-
33 pitches by your pitcher and Wallner has a 2 pitch at bat. Very dumb.
-
Wonder we find out if anyone on this roster can make contact. Not a fan of Sheltons line-ups so far.
-
I would take Alcala back.
-
Well that 1st inning was rather limp for the bats.
-
I want Culpepper starting at SS for the Twins not the Saints. The time is now to get more athletic up the middle.
-
Agreed, we don't really have a first basemen on the big league roster.

Improve the defense up the middle. Hell i would rather have Lewis at Shortstop and Lee at 3rd base just for some more range. We don't have very good options at 1st base that's only reason I mention Lewis at 1st, to get Lee out of the short stop spot.
-
I'm ready for Brooks Lee to play third base and if Lewis cannot play some first base move on from him. This team needs Culllpepper at SS just for his range.
-
Topa has a mediocre fastball with little to no movement. He stunk last year, and he stunk during Spring training, and has a penchant to hang pitches in the hitting zone. No idea why Twins are rostering Topa beyond the money they are paying him. He has not been successful during his Twins run. One of my least favorite Twins players in the last decade. This is a poorly constructed roster. There is some talent but the bullpen is very below average. This doesn't appear to have the makings of a team that will win very many games.
-
Agreed, need to free up some outfield spots by moving on from Larnach and Outman. Would like to see them move on from a logjam of cement shoe guys.
-
I predict 63 wins and I'm a diehard. Unless they dump some of these struggling veterans and go with the younger outfielders, move on from Royce Lewis, move Brooks Lee to third, get rid of Larnach, and bring up Culpepper from AAA, this will be a wasted development season. Starting pitching looks like a potential flop, and bullpen is bubble gum, and band-aids. I don't see Royce Lewis or Larnach as reliable major league hitters. Rest is just average, to below average.
-
I would trade Larnach for International bonus pool money, just to open up a roster spot on 40 man and 26 man roster.

Nah you have to keep Roden over Outman, that or trade Larnach. .
-
Twins should dump Larnach.
-
I would shop Larnach too, we a have a good amount of young outfielders that need playing time. Gonzalez or Rodriguez will need to be called up this year after May, I presume. Walker Jenkins will be on the horizon too. We got guys that need major league experience that we do not want to get stale.
-
Same, would like to see Twins move on from Larnach. I only mentioned Wallner in the same light because he would bring back more in any potential trade. Would prefer the Twins trade Larnach.
-
They need to trade either Larnach or Wallner. They are same guy. Honestly Larnach they should trade while some teams still think he has upside.

Spring training game thread: week of Feb 21
jaimedude replied to mrtwinsfan's topic in Minnesota Twins Talk
Travis Adams does not look like he is a big league pitcher at least not last year and so far this Spring. -
Would seem logical that the Twins should be in the market for another veteran starter with the injury to Pablo Lopez. I know they have a stable of young guys in Abel, Bradley, Festa, Woods Richardson and Festa Matthews. I would think Matthews, Festa and Bradley or Abel may be candidates to help us out of the bullpen. Bradley and Abel both have bullpen experience. Not saying with certainty they sign a guy like Giolito but it would not hurt to have a veteran starter near the top of the rotation. Giolito was always tough against us when he was with the White Sox, think he could help the Twins. Money will be the question.
-
I would sign Couloumbe back, and I like Kinley too.
