    It only cost some cash so why not have an emergency backup with Correa, Castro, and Miranda all hurt. When people are healthy, I suspect the Twins will DFA him as well.
  2. FlyingFinn
    What happened to Castro? Seemed like an innocent bounce off his foot at SS the last inning he played.

    Matthews and Adams in their piggyback couldn't be fun for the opposition. Surprised Emma Rodriguez wasn't pulled from the game when Wallner hurt his hammy. Normally that happens to the player being called up.
  4. FlyingFinn
    Yes, hamstring. Didn't look good.
  5. FlyingFinn
    Hardly any position players left on the 40 man - Emmanuel Rodriguez and 2 catchers we really don't want to see right now.
  6. FlyingFinn
    No, but his wrist may be broken - as he leaves the game.

    So many great pitching performances by our top rated pitchers. Keep it up! Bummer for Martin getting injured. He was really having a good week. Schobel with a very nice week. Kendle, Amick and DeBarge with great weeks. Jeferson Morales - had a great spring but he had a tough week along with Rosario, Olivar and the Cardenas/Cossetti catching combo. So much hope for those two catchers last April and their bats have been dead since. Bummer!

    For a team that can't hit right now, you want to get rid of our hottest hitter in Julien???

    Lots of good reports on starting pitchers and piggy back pitchers who are prospects - Hill, Doktorcyck, Bengard, Prielipp (apologies to Rozek, he pitched great but I just don't put him in this category). Preilipp's stats aren't great but it appears that was great for two plus innings. Just so positive to hear this news on him.
  10. FlyingFinn
    Keaschall is scheduled to be pulled early whenever he plays the field, for now. They are building him up to make sure he's healthy. I just don't think he gets the call before he's 100% ready in the field.
  11. FlyingFinn
    Kasper (or Gasper or Casper)? Whoever that guy is, like a ghost, I agree he should disappear.
  12. FlyingFinn
    Kudos to Severino and Amick and their hot hitting starts. While other hitters are having slow starts, they have done great. The Twins haven't shown any trust in Severino (in signing Ty France for 1B, about the only position he has a chance to play MLB at) and I was very surprised he resigned with the Twins.
  13. FlyingFinn
    Can we at least try to run our fastest to first base in case someone bobbles the ball??
  14. FlyingFinn
    The way Morris and Matthews are pitching, I sure wish one of them would get called up to replace Paddack in the rotation. On the down side, Jenkins injured again. How bad is it? With over half of the starting rotation injured as well, that's a rough looking roster in Wichita right now. Winokur and Doncon showed flashes of good baseball in spring training. Yikes, they are off to a tough start, both batting below .100 in the middle of the Cedar Rapids lineup.
  15. FlyingFinn
    He needs to be able to play in the field for 9 innings though on consecutive days. So far, he has mostly played DH or planned games where he plays 5 innings in the field. He won't be up until they are confident he's 100%.
  16. FlyingFinn
    The Twins baserunning is the worst in the league. They have Lugo on the ropes in the 4th inning. Larnach inexplicably rounds 2nd and gets out. If the throw went to home, he's still not going to 3rd with 2 outs. There is no reason for that to happen. Vazquez leads off 2nd with 2 outs and gets picked off. Why? Even he will score on most hits to the OF with 2 outs. These two weren't being aggressive. They were just bad running mistakes. The Twins are really slow but they can still be smart and slow.
  17. FlyingFinn
    Love to see so many good starts from our starting pitchers. Matthews and Questad get the headlines but Olivares and Bowen seemed almost as good. Severino in right field, woof. He's just a warm body at this point and so bad on D. As @tony&rodney said, just give his playing time to McCusker.
  18. FlyingFinn
    I hope that was the last Gasp(er) for Mickey.
  19. FlyingFinn
    I can't believe Correa and Buxton have started all 10 games. That's even more amazing than, with them, the Twins are a lifeless 3-7.
  20. FlyingFinn
    Lots of good starts for almost all of our high rated pitchers, including piggy back starters. Bullpens were terrible.
  21. FlyingFinn
    Looking at the Fort Myers box score, I'm wondering if this has ever happened in baseball before, 3 players with the same name - Pena, Pena and Pena. And two of them hit homers.
  22. FlyingFinn
    Some good pitching performances from Bengard, Soto and Raya. Working out of jams is something you had better be good it. Listened a little bit to the Saints radio broadcast. The announcer said Funderburk and Blewett are going to be throwing multiple innings in preparation for doing that with the Twins. Funderburk was great, Blewett was terrible.
  23. FlyingFinn
    I think you are first person who thinks Winokur is overrated. Not sure he will make it at SS but he keeps moving up my ratings, ahead of Bengard and De Andrade.
  24. FlyingFinn
    FYI - Kyle Jones is listed on the Wichita roster on the website.
  25. FlyingFinn
    Great question - injured... or forgot to put on the list??? That OF should hit. The infielders are mostly in the category of "hit this year" or you are a career minor leaguer. Schobel, Rucker and Ross are repeating AA. Cespedas and Ortega are older than average for AA. Important year for the catchers as well. Cardenas and Cossetti looked great coming into last year and through April and then flopped. Hope one of them masters AA pitchers. And Olivar is a major leaguer if he's a catcher but there's serious doubt about his defense at that position. Pitchers don't look great other than Nowlin and Prielipp, unless the guys @Rigby listed are actually on the roster.
