    Neither is better than Hicks was in his early years; it would make no sense to bring in under-performing rookies to see them fail. Hicks has experience, his numbers in left field are good, he knows how to do things right, NOT , a flailing rookie.

    Either would be a waste of money at best.

    Hoskins is a gaping hole in defense, leave him alone.

    The spitball was not outlawed until 1934, which makes what Ruth did even a bit more memorable.

    Billy got 100.000 last year.
  6. RpR
    He is heading to Japan.

    I was semi-sarcastic in my first post , but, they could get Billy Hamilton for FAR less money who is no worse at the plate and is a 10 times better fielder, just as quick runner, if you are going to only use him for special purposes. It would be interesting but makes no sense to pick up Bubba.

    Jenkins -- NO!

    They would do better bringing back Billy Hamilton; he is top rank fielder with a similar bat.🙂

    Maybe we can do a repeat of 2021: Blankenthorn, Celestino, Refsnyder, Cave, Rooker, there is always some one just as good in AAA. 😬

    Buxton, with Bellinger as a back-up. I do not play God as to what goes through a ball players head.

    Most likely would be in Left Field most of the time with stints at First Base.

    Without Taylor, Farmer, Gray, Maeda, Castro, Solano, Vazquez all varying aged veterans, the Twins would have NOT gone as far as they did. 2019: Cruz, C.J. Cron, Schoop, Garver, Castro, Gonzalez the Twins would have been the same 2018 also rans. The Prospects/rookies are not all that you/some here claim them to be. Absolute Rookies are a crap-shoot with a less than 50 percent chance of being equal, much less better, to the persons they replace.

    Sanchez would be nice to have; not sure why he floats around the league.

    A Man of Many Gloves

    RpR commented on Paul D's blog entry in Paul Danesi

    Ah Sandy, only had one real good year but he did on a team that went to the World Series; the aim of many who never do.
  16. RpR
    Hicks would be a hole in the outfield; his fielding dropped far worse than his bat.
  17. RpR
    Unless he falls apart with the bat like Simmons did, he is NOT going downward and he is too young for that .
  18. RpR
    It would be interesting to have a player who won a batting title both with the Twins and another team, and again with the Twins.
  19. RpR
    He has to string together a LOT of well above average years to do so.
  20. RpR
    For Minnesota -- it has been an extremely mild winter, hmmm, very similar to the action the Twins Front Office has done so far, maybe there is a correlation?
  21. RpR
    Ryan's Strike Out rate was up, but then his home runs increased by 50 percent, that is probably why for Ryan.
  22. RpR
    How many more runs and how many more losses would we have had without Taylor and his Buxton level fielding in Center Field?
  23. RpR
    His performance last year made it obvious. You are comparing 3 months to 4 years, my oh my.
  24. RpR
    As MLR inferrred, AA is not AAA and AAA is not Major League challenge. Eve some veterans when they have rehab. in AAA do not rip the cover off of the ball, so not great in AAA, may mean not average in the Big Show.
  25. RpR
    aI would like to find one of the crystal balls so many here seem to be gazing through. Julien has shown he has large gaps, in his performance; he is below average at Second on his best day., and some here think if he keeps batting agaist pitchers that already own him, he will magically get better, good grief. Polance in 4 seasons at Second is average, not below. Lee is an unknown rookie; could come up and not be below average in any manner, or could be another De La Cruz: come up and looking like the next Joe Mauer , and then quickly fall down to Celestino level. IF, if they would trade both it would be foolish to do so for any pitcher not at leaat at Gray's level, but that will never happen.
