  1. Can you also tell us how long he will stay activated 😊? Seriously, the Twins are a different team with Buxton out there and he fully earns what he is being paid, even with the amount he plays. I will welcome his return.

  3. What's your opinion as of now - can he actually be a catcher in MLB? I keep reading that he can't throw out runners. Also, if he's not a catcher, what do you think his chances of making it to MLB are? Seems a much steeper climb at that point.
  4. Jenkins looks ready. With only a week or so to manipulate his service time, we will find out if the Twins are actually doing that.
  5. Tait and Lackey will be interesting. Lackey is older and played college. He should move faster and should surpass Tait at some point, possibly even at the start of next year. Do we really want both on the same team if we want each to catch more than 50% of the time (I haven't paid attention if Tait is currently playing catcher more than 50% of their games)?
  6. Answer this question - would we be happy if Houston got to AAA and hit .250 with 10 HR's in 373 AB's? Interesting question because that's what Noah Miller is doing with the Dodgers AAA team (for some who don't know, we traded Miller for Manuel Margot and Rayne Doncon - both out of the Twins organization).
  7. Why do I cringe any time I read "Emmanuel Rodriguez" and "dive" in the same sentence. Just keep those thumbs safe.
  8. I'm not saying I wouldn't call them up but the poster asked for possible downsides. My only question is call them up now or in a couple weeks.
  9. Biggest downside - they aren't ready. With Culpepper, it's coming back from injury after a lengthy layoff. Jenkins it's just some more reps and maybe adding some homers. Other minor downsides - No rookie of the year next year and no extra 1st round draft pick (more looking to 2027 rather than win this year). And, as you said, they can't play in AAA if there is a lockout in 2027.
  10. Culpepper for Gray and Jenkins for........... Roden I guess, barring injury, at some point.
  11. For some, yes, and then the last one: We traded Varland??????!!!!!!! Falvey needs to be fired!
  12. I believe they are acquiring guys who are controllable in at least 2027. Gausman isn't so they got rid of him.

  14. Radio announcers are saying Lewis failed to cover 2nd base on the Robles single........................
