  1. Does not matter and the answer is: How many more.games would they lost if Wallner, Julien and Jeffers had 100 more at-bats?
  2. Rortvedt 2 for 2 before being replaced. I do not follow minor leagues the way many here do, but I have never heard a lot of names being put in the game as substitutios.

    So What Now?

    You are cherry picking, those three teams all had bomba squads and excellent pitching, you also ignored the Dodgers . Twins had good pitching through Free Agency and that is probably gone; the Front Office wants a bomba squad but three members of that are gone.
  4. What Dr. Gast says makes sense; Farmer is a Good Second Baseman, Julien is a Not Good Second Baseman. If Julien needs more practice then send him back to St.Paul, it is a long way from getting better to being good. Last season players were pulled not for their bat but because a good defense man was needed, and Julien is not the latter.
  5. I cannot see why they are looking at him but then I do not have their information, still seems odd.
  6. Twins are not a minor league training camp, he is on the field IF he earns his way and so far, that is not working out too well. It took three years before teams learned Santana was a good First Baseman and not a good catcher. In his first three years Kirilloff has shown he is not a good fielder any where, especially Left Field. With an increasing strike out rate, a lot not to like there. That is why Santana is here and Kirilloff may not be.
  7. Santana 2023 Kirilloff 2023 Defense Santana Kirilloff Sanatan is not here to just fill in; Front Office said they were looking for First Baseman and this is why.
  8. The point is to win now, keep what works and do not use, except in, pull- in case of an emergencey, those which are a crap-shoot. Kirilloff is not a good Fielder , any where, which is why Santana is here, let him go like Gordon, some where , where, new atmosphere may re-energize him. Worse do not become a holding pen stock-yard treating men like cattle.
  9. If his glove equaled his bat, he would have a better chance.
  10. They have no one to replace him; Wallner simply is no where as good as he is, and they have no one to take Wallner's place in left field. All the let x, y or z play in the outfield so a, b or c can play in the infield is just silliness; having a proven proffesional like Taylor last year made a huge difference in the Twins results. The Twins now are on the verge of being a post season regular and wishful thinking about rookies, which dominates this site, will not maintain that level especially with the rookies experience they have had for the past decade. That Lewis stays at the promise level he showed is some thing the Twins front office are counting on, while fingers crossed hope that Jeffers fielding skills equal his bat is another. IF, if the Twins start dumping what is left of the veteran squad, they are going to be also rans again.
  11. I remember them saying he's going to focus on 1B, but I don't remember anything about him being a 1B only.
  12. They picked up Santana, a First Baseman, end of story.
  13. Kiriloff is not a good fielder, he has poor range. Kepler is going nowhere.
  14. That they picked-up Santana shows they see problems at First Base with Kirilloff.
  15. Do not destroy all the Fantasy Baseball that has been floating around this site lately.🤣
  16. Correa has been up and down his whole career, varying from average to among the best. This was not the first time he was average.
  17. I was surprised the Twins let him go; good bat with competent defense.
  18. Does not matter, Sanchez was primary, and from defense results, that was a good thing.
