    Miranda can play DH, too bad C.J. Cronn is not available.

    Get him and his brother.

    Molitor babied him , it was written in the Tribune, he felt bad that Sano had to stay in lessor motels, play in lessor ball parks, ride busses when he sent him down. THAT is what Sano needed more often.

    The Vikings may make to the Big One this year because they do not have a team that is one of the best of the best but what the hell are they doing here.

    All time utility should go to Cesar Tovar.

    Ranking the 5 best MLB shortstops of the last decade By Daniel Santiago Modified 22 May 2022 https://www.sportskeeda.com/baseball/ranking-5-best-mlb-shortstops-last-decade Twins need to keep Correa or sign number 4 or number 3.

    Bogaerts, despite one good year, is putting a whole at SS. He has never played 2nd base so ya-sure just move him to 2nd base, and pray. Twins need defense at SS, not a good bat, Simmons is still rated at 81 OAA, if Correa leaves.

    Very true but the four, Combined , played a toatal of 56 games first years in the majors before they showed they belonged there; Miranada and Larnach have played, combined , 215 games and have not shown the total ability they belong in the majors. MIranda's fielding AA level and Larnach's batting average is too close to the Mendoza line. The boys from this article have to prove they can avoid those detriments , when they do, they may be called up. Two of the rookies called up this year showed they should be in , at best , AAA, the Twins cannot afford to be the equivalent of a AAA training ground.

    Reality is not what wishful thinking wants it be , most often.

    They are not good enough to move up, yet, if ever. Brunansky was in major league by age 21; Hrbek by age 22; Gaetti and Gagne by age 23, they had the talent to start early, and did. If these Minor league rookies were talented enough for the Bigs, at this point , they would be there.

    Where did you get that drivel? I am one of Simmons biggest supporters ? a slick glove is the item I have supported above anything at Short Stop without exception., this dude does not hit as well as Simmons did in his good years, and not a good SS fielder which is why in 5 years he has played there 37 times. plus in 5 years he has 4 home runs and a whole 39 rbi. Yeah it just simple to find some one who is a superior fielder in Right as it was in left. They could put Wallner out there, yep, Wallner -- here comes da ball, oh darn , there goes da ball .?

    They abandoned starting relievers and finishing with starters to answer the threads question.

    I do believe another poster stated up higher , remember thses are pretty much AA games and players, which is a long, long, long way from Big League challenge. IF any one has shown long term superior talent, he would spend a few weeks in Minor Leagues before give a shot at the Bigs, WITHOUT having to replace an injured player.
  15. RpR
    Where do these ideas come from ? Trade a superior fielding right fielder for a poor hitting , below averag SS, good grief! Just what the Twins need a big hole at Short AND Right Field.
  16. RpR
    For the Saints maybe, LOL.
  17. RpR
    As the team heads for 100 losses again.
  18. RpR
    Also as a back-up catcher for Sanchez.

    I remember well, over a decade ago when Buxton, Hicks and Sano were going to be the future of the Twins, on TV talking heads. What has changed, back when Twins were World Series winners, many rookies first year they Twenty or Twenty One and full time , including in production by by Twenty Two and Twenty Three.
  20. RpR
    They bought out Sano for a couple of million rather pay him 14 million hoping for the best.
  21. RpR
    Do not hate them, but sure as heck do not talk about them like they will be the second coming as so, so many here do, Chimeras are not reality. There are a lot of - up and coming - that never come up or show they do not belong, I treat them all that way until they prove other wise.

    Well over at Baseball Ref. his Player-value Batting is: oWAR 1.7 -- Urshela 2.8 dWAR -1.2 -- Urshels 0.7 oRAR 17 -- Urshela 27 He is not a, sure in, by any means; spring training will be very important for him. (DH may be his place)
  23. RpR
    LORDY, I have not heard that for over 55 years; brings back good memories.?
  24. RpR
    All this piece shows is some one is a BIG Jeffers fan and does not like Sanchez regardless of performance.
  25. RpR
    In seven years Narvaez has had one year field ing percentage was above average, this is better than Jeffers how? His batting and fielding are both worse than Sanchez, getting him would not be an upgrade in any manner.
