    Trevor Plouffe 2.0?

    I've never been a big Trevor fan and thought he was in the process of playing his way out of the league last year. However, I will admit that this impressive start is no fluke - his approach at the plate is markedly different. Plus, he's not really gotten any cheapies that I've seen - he's squaring the ball up and showing great patience in going the other way. I still hate him in the field but with the approach he is now taking, I'm guessing he will be a good enough hitter that they will find a spot for him in the field.
  2. I've always liked the way he swings the bat. I also don't understand people wanting to peg him as a utility guy when he's only 24 and made his way to the big leagues rather quickly. He can easily improve as a hitter and fielder and, if that happens, he's clearly preferable to Florimon. I would give him every chance to win the SS job.
  3. The question really needs to be "why didn't the Twins make this trade with Florida?" as there is only one owner crazy enough to do this. There are no other deals like this out there to be had. It makes a splash but I'm not sure it helps as much as the hype will indicate. Johnson is soon to be a free agent, Buerhle got big money at a late age and Reyes got big money and is already not living up to it.
  4. I wonder if the contact play was on? This should ensure that Lexi stays in Gardy's doghouse for another month.
