    Seriously just want Molitar gone at this point. Either try to win or give the youngsters playing time. Starting Wilson and Motter does neither.

    Unless they are actively tanking, starting Astudillo at 2nd is inexcusable. Escobar has experience there at least not to mention Polanco. Or even better, let him catch, Wilson being used as the primary catcher is ridiculous.

    The Rockies had to make that deal, even if they likely won't like the deal toward the end. Blackmon is one of their most popular players, they don't have a ready replacement like the Twins do for Dozier and, most importantly, they need to show this kind of commitment if they want to get Arenado signed to a long term deal. Get those two locked up and they're in good shape to be competitive for the next few years. They definitely make some odd decisions (that Desmond deal is completely stupid) but I don't think this is one. As a fan (they're my second team since I live in Denver now) it's nice to finally see some commitment to at least try to win.

    I think Mauer retires when his contract expires. Stewart won't get picked, the only reason to suggest he would is his draft status.

    Can we bring back Pat Neshek? Has the experience the Twins could use even if he hasn't spent much time as a closer.

    Curtiss hasn't given up a home run since 2015 and, unless I'm mistaken, has never given up a home run in the minors as a reliever.

    Hate me if you want, but I'd love to see them draft Nick Allen here. Then load up on pitchers.

    All I can think at this point is the FO is aiming for another year of control on Berrios.

    Vs Righties 1B Mauer SS Polanco 3B Sano 2B Dozier RF Kepler DH Park CF Buxton C Castro LF Rosario Vs Lefties DH Grossman SS Polanco 3B Sano 2B Dozier 1B Park RF Kepler CF Buxton C Gimenez LF Rosario I don't want Dozier leading off, wastes his power. Put Buxton behind the power, let him be aggressive and steal bases.
  27. Tecmo
    I think Adrianza is going to get a very long look at being the starting shortstop in spring training. Polanco can get plenty of at bats spelling 2nd, SS and DH and injuries happen.
  28. Tecmo
    Guthrie's kid with one of the 30s picks makes sense. College shortstop who could maybe be ready fairly soon and the Twins have already drafted him once.
  29. Tecmo
    I have to admit, those numbers do surprise me. But until we find someone who can get on base consistently, I don't think that having him bat behind Escobar, who tends to get into scoring position when he gets on base, is a bad thing. Maybe we let Escobar lead off as previously suggested and Mauer hits two behind him.
