    What's that tongue-in-cheek definition of insanity? I question why anybody would be eager for more of the same.

    And give ERod all of Larnachs at bats to see what they've got. Larnach is (as a platooning outfielder) a slightly above average hitter with defensive liabilities. Let ERod platoon, and it's my opinion they will have improved the ballclub.

    It goes right along with that definition of sanity. Maybe (certainly) it's time to try something different. And I don't mean hoping there will be no injuries next season.

    Somebody please tell me what Orze is still doing on the 40 man.

    No offense to Maggi, but I never expected to see his name associated with "that's impressive company", even though I thought Baldelli did him dirty by not getting him into a game when they called him up.

    "continues to work the edges of their 40 man roster", Frayed edges. Fixed it for you. As long as Clemens is basically the starter at 1st base, you have to believe they have a lot of work to do.

    Fedko is puzzling. He has some power, he steals bases, he has played center moving Rodriguez to right, and he even played some 2nd base in an emergency. , and yet, you never hear him discussed.
  26. Fred
    I think the motivation for a position change (I'm all for moving hm to 1st) will be getting back to the bigs. If he wants the bigs more than he doesn't want a position change, the Twins are in. If he's stubborn, well, he has, at least , helped his trade value as the Twins upgraded their defense.

    Please, please, please be right!

    The silver lining here is that they know who will be batting 9th.

    I said, as the season started, that I wanted Larnach gone, but I wanted a final look at Wallner. I've seen enough. It's nice of Larnach to show other clubs that he can handle a platoon job against righties. They might just get more for him than I expected. I still don't want him blocking promotions from AAA, however. Remember the trio, Kirilloff, Larnach, and Wallner? It looked good at the time; what a disappointment!
  32. Fred
    And yet, I can recall many cases where a fielding liability with a big bat has been stashed at 1st to keep them in the lineup
  33. Fred
    I'm glad you mentioned Fedko. He's second on the Saints on HRs and OPS. And I have seen them move Rodriguez to RF to put Fedko in Center. He's 26, so it's time for them to see what he has
  34. Fred
    I would be shocked if no one had ever tried Wallner at 1st base. He's just too big and too defensively challenged in the outfield for that thought to have never occurred to anyone when he was in school or the minor leagues.
  35. Fred
    All by itself the Varland trade could, at least, be explained. Rojas and Roden both look like they could contribute in the future. But, they had just gutted their bullpen. Varland was the sole remaining reliable guy out there. Right now, I'm not sure how big a lead needs to be, to be safe. It will straighten itself out in 2 or 3 years, but Buxton isn't getting younger, and the next wave will be asking for more money about that time.
