    ....and also eliminate the Dodgers' unique, sweetheart revenue deals that were because of owner's divorce 15 years ago. Ridiculous that this is still a thing. NFL model is the gold standard. Raise minimum salary substantially. Raise salary for MiLB players, too. True, 100% financial disclosure. True, 100% revenue sharing except concessions and novelty sales. Need strong leadership to make this happen. Never will.

    Re: Lee or Culpepper at 3B, in the SSS so far, Culpepper has not shown a sure glove at SS, fighting the ball. That is not going to get better at 3B. He needs to get better and more confident as a fielder. Future could be SS, 2B or 3B quite frankly. Lee doesn't have his arm velo, but seems pretty nimble and does not seem to fight the ball as much.

    Is there any chance that Buxton just retires rather than yet another surgery and rehab? He has given his all, but his body is just not holding up to the challenge.

    Comment above is correct: Until MLB fixes the financial side of the game, we are all just arguing about which chairs to put where on the Twins Titanic. This boat 'aint gonna float competitively. It can be a cute and fun boat, but it is never going much of anywhere. Maybe a runabaout.

    I am still not sold that Lewis' bat justifies taking 1B. Hope he hits well, but skeptical.... Lee or Culpepper to 2nd once Houston arrives would be fine. Culpepper might settle in better with time and experience at SS, too.

    It is interesting to look at Jenkins, Culpepper and Keaschall. They actually look like athletes for a change.

    And the Dodgers and Yankees will still have the best holographic robots.....

    Jenkins has to learn to stop stinging the ball like that! :)
  20. SteveLV
    This roster should have substantial turnover by next year--and it should start now with the current homestand. Keaschall needs to learn how to play second base or may have to be a DH next season. Bell, Larnach, Kreidler, Jeffers (FA) all gone. Clemens should get fewer AB's. Twins should be replacing at least 40% of the PA's next year. The pitching is another story.....

    The apparent angst over Jenkins taking a roster spot on the 40 man confuses me. If it is concern over being locked out in the Spring, I kinda get it. But if it the idea that we can't find anyone to drop from the 40 man to make room, this is ridiculous. We can cut 10 guys right now and have no material impact on their competitiveness, maybe more. This is hardly a loaded roster.

    Unfortunately, those of us who advocated trading the Vets at the deadline (or sooner) largely because we felt the Twins' playoff viability was a mirage were, indeed, correct absent some miracle. That water is now over the dam. Time to make the best decisions possible at this point in time, and clearly it is time to clean house and bring up and give playing time to players that can be part of the future for this team. And I don't mean one player, either. 5 weeks left in the season, so make the most of that "early Spring Training".

    Jenkins, 5 AB's today: Single, 2 HR"s, and 2 BB's. Slacker. We can't use you up here, Walker. No room. Silliness.
  26. SteveLV
    Only 2 HR's for Jenkins in Game 1 today (1 was hit last night). He sure seems ready to me.
  27. SteveLV
    Please face reality and bring up some youngsters and get them some MLB experience. They were dreaming at the trade deadline, and now they must wake up. Too late to recoup the lost assets for players like Jeffers who will now disappear with no compensation, but at least don't fall into the sunk cost fallacy and keep running these aging no-hope Vets out there. Play for 2027 now.

    I like Ryan. But c'mon. Skubal >>>>> Ryan. Skubal can win a WS for your team. That is worth everything.
