    Good to hear the Twins roster is so good that they can have a pitcher in the minors at age 25 that looks like and is pitching like future top of the rotation starter. If he is pitching that well, there sure be no problem jumping any of those guys not pitching that well. So yes there is a chance that those 8 are so good that Prielipp doesn't get a chance, but being honest how many times has something like that happened in Twins history? I also understand they will be limiting his innings this year and that is probably easier to do in the minors, but at what cost to the major league team.

    If he is looking like a #1 (which I hope he is) why would he be pitching in the minors?
  16. TwinsDr2021
    Prielipp is 25, and will start next year at age 26, not sure if at that age you are really a prospect anymore. Doesn't mean he won't be great but not sure how many prospects go into there age 26 season with rookie of the year eligibility. IMO if he isn't pitching in MN at some point this year things haven't went well and isn't likely he would be a top prospect going into next year. But totally agree on the rest.

    2021 95-67 1st (division) lost in the division series 2022 86-76 2nd (division) missed playoffs 2023 92 - 70 1st (division) (division) lost in the NL wild card series 2024 93-69 1st (division) lost in NL Wild card series 2025 97-65 1st(division) NL championship series Maybe the Brewers fans take a breathe and realize their front office might have something figured out that the Twins front office doesn't.
  19. TwinsDr2021
    Maybe more of those card board people they put in the stands in 2020 season? They are going to need to the fill the stands one way or the other and it looks like they don't care about it being with real people buying tickets.

    if replacement level is success, than yes Larnach has been an overwhelming success. My math is Culpepper is 23 during the 26 season, 24 during the 27 season, and 25 for the 28 season. Who cares when he rule 5 if he is already 25. Julien and Miranda didn't really start doing good in the minors until they were 23, So if he isn't up this year, he is on the same path as them. (and Larnach and Wallner). Again I think the hope is Culpepper is a future core starter and not an unknown for years.
  24. TwinsDr2021
    IMO, the hope is he isn't another Miranda, Julien, Larnach, etc.... and if he isn't up this year (age 23 season) it is likely he falls into the mid 20 something young guy they are still trying to figure out when he gets on the wrong side of 25. And with the way the 26 season is looking, I would rather get him and sooner than later and see if he is somebody they can count on in the future and hitting his stride in his prime, not trying to figure it out in his prime. Like pretty much everybody else on the roster.

    No Santana or Blyleven (49.9 career WAR in MN)?
  29. TwinsDr2021
    Haven't looked, but based on this comment I assume Grand Casino and target center are suffering from an attendance drop?

    But, but, but Josh Bell, he could be as good a Ty France</sarcasm>

    If you compare the opening day 26 man roster for the 2025 Twins to the 26 man roster right now, the 2025 one is considerably better and that team won 70 games. With that said I have high hopes guys like Lewis, Wallner, and Lee will be much better this year and a rookie or two will step up. but I have reservations about this team staying healthy enough to compete for a division title because that is something they haven't really done (staying healthy that is).

    so OBP (.399) and SLG (.464) are new? Jenkins has a minor league batting average of .295, 114 RBI in 854 plate appearances (115 walks, 137 K's) with a 16% K ratio and still below 20% if you exclude walks all while still under the age of 21.
  33. TwinsDr2021
    all that and 4 3rd place finishes or worse in 5 years. Which should have been enough to fire this FO.
  34. TwinsDr2021
    As a 20 year old in AA he put a .912 OPS, and .719 in AAA. Would you prefer he was playing in A+ doing better than he did as a 19 year old? (.862) Sometimes guys with his type of skills don't need to dominating before moving on, (Jackson Merrill for Chourio for example both have lower career minor league OPS than Jenkins) Would I like to see his number more like Langord, yes but he also played college ball.

    Lee actually has a negative one WAR. (top 50 prospects for two years) Lewis (age 26) has a career WAR of 4 (over 4 years and has played 258 games, really 3 for 246), after being a top 50 prospect for 4 years. Is this bad? the games played isn't good but overall when he plays he is pretty decent, I just don't think you can call him a average or better everyday major league player yet Wallner (age 28) has a career WAR of 4.6 (which again is pretty good, but only once in his career has he even played half of the games in a season and the one he did (104) was his worst (.6 WAR). As with Lewis it is tough to call him an average or better everyday player when he has never accomplished being a every day player. All three are first round picks and each one by themselves looks pretty good, I mean getting this kind of career WAR from any pick is an accomplishment. You add in Jeffers career WAR (8.3) and you would imagine the last 4 years probably were pretty successful, but when guys like this only play half or less of the games you have a problem.
