    Mendez plays almost exclusively LF and DH. With Roden, Rodriguez, and Jenkins hurt, he has to get called up to AAA, correct?

    Nice to see Wallner with a couple hits. If the Twins were looking to send him down, who comes up - Roden, nope, injured. Rodriguez, nope, injured, Jenkins, nope, injured. Wallner's living a charmed life. Here's his chance to go on a hot streak.

    Here is the report: 1. Kody Funderburk The list ends there as we could not ethically include any of the other relief pitchers.

    As @DocBauer said yesterday, Ferrer is really playing well. Great minor league story this year. But guys who bat 9th consistently, as he still does, have like zero chance of playing for the Twins. Still, fun to see him killing the opposing pitchers this year.

    Two hours later - Matthews up and Joe Ryan to the IL. Guess that's why we don't put guys like Matthews into the pen in a closer role.

    But remember since we arent really trying to win we can let this play out longer and find out which starters make it.
  7. FlyingFinn
    We certainly have enough Pena's in the lower minors!

    Great to see Larnach and Jeffers doing well as both will be traded in July. Don't want to see Jeffers go but his agent will demand top dollar.
  9. FlyingFinn
    Sorry to say that Jeffers will be traded in July.

    I disagree on labeling Mendez a first baseman. He has started a grand total of 1 game and played 11 innings this year at 1B. His 17 games played at LF is odd to me. He's behind Rodriguez, Jenkins and Roden in the minors. He's has almost zero chance of playing LF for the Twins.

    Our Twins are who we thought they were!! Very good starting pitching, a mediocre offense that can get just barely more runs than the starting pitching allows, and a worthless bullpen (who will have some spurts where they look okay).

    Watching low A baseball has to be hard sometimes. I notice all the errors in the boxscore - Mercedes with two fielding errors in the OF and Young making his 11th error of the month. Got some work to do in the field.

    LH corner OF hurt - that is one place we have depth. E-Rod's OPS is decent at AAA. If needed, he will be called up. But let him play 6 days a week for now with the Saints. Besides, it seems like Martin deserves more playing time against RH's right now with the Twins.
  14. FlyingFinn
    The Ellwanger news is terrible.
  15. FlyingFinn
    Nice to see Yasser Mercedes off to a nice start this year.
  16. FlyingFinn
    Certainly a hot start for some of our pitchers in the minors - Ellwanger and Moring have combined for 24.2 innings without allowing an earned run at Fort Myers.
  17. FlyingFinn
    If Rodriguez is about here and surely Jenkins will be coming at some point, why do we have Roden again? With Buxton, we have the outfield covered and Austin Martin complements the lefties (Jenkins and Rodriguez).
  18. FlyingFinn
    We have a problem in Cedar Rapids. In just 3 innings, the opponent stole 7 bases on Jason Doktorcyck and Eduardo Tait. Does one of them have an issue in this department or both of them? Maybe someone knows better than me. I'm thinking the hit by pitch knocked Tait out of the game. They did steal 11 bases in the game not getting caught once.

    Has Ben Ross set a new TD record for being hitter of the day for the most consecutive days!!
  20. FlyingFinn
    If other teams even think Caratini or the Twins are doing this, it makes them doubt when they are thinking about challenging, possibly not doing so when they should have. Seems like Wallner and the Twins batters who were always wrong early on have stopped challenging (haven't caught every game so someone can tell me if I'm wrong).
  21. FlyingFinn
    Improving another pitch, not adding to pitches he's capable of throwing. He really doesn't use 6 pitches when in the majors, at least not all in any kind of frequency that I recall. Zebby needs to add to his quality pitches that he can throw in the majors. If not, he is surely heading to the bullpen. As @Bangkok Twins Fan said above, not terrible if he turns into Louie Varland.
  22. FlyingFinn
    442 feet from Ben Ross! He is different than last year, in a great way.
  23. FlyingFinn
    Really feels like he's on the Louie Varland route at the moment.
  24. FlyingFinn
    Matthews velocity being down is a concern. But according to the Saints radio broadcast, the Twins want him to work on improving another pitch, one that adds to his arsenal. Thus he is throwing more of his bad pitches right now (not sure if the stats prove that to be the case). I forget exactly what pitch that is. Maybe someone can help me out on here.
  25. FlyingFinn
    Ben Ross looks to be in the lead now for minor league hitter of the month for the Twins. Ellwanger for the pitchers, though I'm not sure Moring has given up a run either.
