    It seems the more thought that goes into Lewis on the 2027 roster, the more it feels like we’re trying to find a way to make Lewis useful to the team, rather than including him because he’s actually useful. That sums him up.

    Luis Arraaz is the Rodney Dangerfield of MLB
  3. JBK
    Rotate Buxton and Keaschall between RF and DH. Rotating between two players may be easier on the mental aspect of the position.
  4. JBK
    I'm advocating for a backup catcher. Not an alternative to Ryan Jeffers.
  5. JBK
    Jhonny Pereda batted .300 in 90 AB's for Seattle this year. Better alternative than Caratini and Alex Jackson. Just saying. Low-risk investment.

    Can't get them under budget unless they let Jeffers go and they don't sign a top FA.

    There wasn't anything particularly earth-shattering about his 2026 performance. Across 154 games, Bell hit .255 with a .738 OPS. He endured another slow start before finishing with a 106 OPS+, putting him slightly above league-average offensive production. Bell was our best run producer and fairly consistent. Doesn't say much about our lineup.
  9. JBK
    That's a bold prediction. I agree
  10. JBK
    I liked all four choices. Nice to see Perry get some press. Radke always produced after he got out of the shaky first inning. I don't think Torri was picked over Kirby or Killer. They obviously are selected in a different category.
  11. JBK
    Why?
  12. JBK
    RBI's don't matter to today's stat nerds. Neither do wins for pitchers. Josh Bell deserved more than one vote.
  13. JBK
    Lighten up Francis
  14. JBK
    The Varland trade last year still makes no sense
  15. JBK
    Ober, Sands, Banda, Lewis, release. Bye.
  16. JBK
    Did he grade on a curve? I wish he'd been my English literature professor in college. I'd have gotten an "A" instead of a "B-".
  17. JBK
    Keaschall needs to go to the Arizona Fall League with specific instructions to work on defense and his arm. You can't throw sidearm from RF. They made money with Bell. He outperformed expectations. Could be offense MVP. The OF is set for 2027. Buck should concentrate on 1B and DH. Save those legs.
  18. JBK
    Kremer
  19. JBK
    You're just asking that question now?
  20. JBK
    I love reading fiction
  21. JBK
    Hire him as hitting coach
  22. JBK
    Can the marketing team throw together a Kevin Slowery, Nick Blackburn & Scott Baker coffee mug giveaway night? That would be more interesting than this article was. Must be a slow day at Twins Daily.
  23. JBK
    We've been waiting years for Royce Lewis to do something. I think he's already peaked.
  24. JBK
    The Twins "season" can no longer revolves around Byron. He needs to fit in where they need him to fit, whatever/wherever that is.
  25. JBK
    Love Buck. But he's injury prone. Put him in position to succeed. DH. Corner OF once a week.
