  1. Really? We're going to start Tristan Gray over Luke Keaschall 70 percent of the time at second base?
  2. We'll play him and we'll like him Rock the Gaspar Rock the Gaspar Sorry, couldn't help throwing in a little bit by 'The Clash'
  3. That is just wrong in so many different ways. If I were a better person I would not have been greatly entertained by this article. Keep up the good work!
  4. While I too would like to see Jeffers catching 60-70% of the time I agree that a 12 inning game behind the plate plus a shot to the chin(bit his tongue) entitles him to a day off(maybe pinch hitting duties?)
  5. I've stopped beating the dog and screaming at the neighbors kids. God bless Royce and AK!
  6. If he does not end up playing a lot in left field I would like to see Larnach get two thirds of the DH at bats. I think if we can keep his bat in the lineup this year he will put up some better than league average DH numbers.
  7. I'm upping the ante here. My grandma used to give me a $20 bill on my birthday. I am donating the last one she game me to the Carlos Correa fund. A great player and a great clubhouse leader is worth the obscene contract and the $20. Come back Carlos!
  8. The team we put on the field last night is the best defensive unit the twins have fielded in a long, long time. Kiriloff moving in at first would be the only improvement I could see defensively. I think we can stop wringing our hands about not having an ace starting pitcher. Go Joe Cool!
  9. It was an interesting game to watch yesterday but I have to throw in one caveat. If Urshela hadn't been so far off the bag the throw from Larnach would have easily gotten Bogearts at third. The throw looked on target but Urshela was 6 feet out toward left field??
  10. I BELIEVE! AMEN BROTHER! I will take my share of the shame if that is my burden to bear. Please let them be better than we think they will be.
  11. I think we would be foolish not to move Sano into the DH slot for 80% of his playing time with Alex Kirilloff taking the majority of the starts at first base. It gives us a dramatic improvement in defense at the position and lets Sano concentrate on what we really need him for, anchoring the middle of the lineup and cutting down on his strikeouts. I know it is a fairly small major league sample size but Kirilloff, when healthy, has shown that he wields a bat that we need to have in the lineup everyday. We can rotate Garver through the first base and DH spots when Sano or Kirilloff need a day off. Burn Sanos glove. We don't need to field the worst first baseman in the American league any more.
  12. I am old school. I have followed the Twins since I listened to Halsey Hall with my dad. I have been a loyal Twins fan through the good and the bad (and the really ugly). I know that there might be a logical, financial reason to trade him but if they don't resign Byron Buxton I am done!
  13. I love the idea of seeing if Escobar could hold down the shortstop position until Lewis/Palacio are ready to take the reins. While Eduardo may not win a gold glove as someone mentioned, his defense has always been solid and he has some good offensive tools and he was a great clubhouse presence. In addition, he is someone we wouldn't have to beg to come play in Minnesota as it is likely he still has some fond memories of his time here. Sign Eduardo, Sign Buck!
  14. I really like the upside on Gray and I think he is someone who would be willing to sign with the Twins unlike some of the top tier free agent starting pitchers. Sign Buck! Sign Buck! Sign Buck! Sign Buck! Sign Buck! Sign Buck! Sign Buck! Oh, and did I mention I think we should sign Byron Buxton to an extension?
