    And Severino over the last month plus.

    Wow, Sabato gets moved up to Wichita. Let's see what you got big guy. Holland goes up with him.
  3. FlyingFinn
    Wow, they must like Varland better this year than Sands last year (unless, in hindsight, they think they should have given Sands this experience last year).
  4. FlyingFinn
    Is Martin ever coming back this year (not that I want us to put him back at SS)?
  5. FlyingFinn
    I am guessing the Twins will be very cautious with his coming off surgery. May not even see him in a game this year - me totally guessing.
  6. FlyingFinn
    The only ones that didn't sign were our 19th and 20th round picks.
  7. FlyingFinn
    I think the Twins also want to keep playing both Miller and Lee at SS full-time rather than them splitting time or one not playing SS at all. Miller is really young and struggling a little with the bat (but almost everyone does in that league). Does this say anything about the Twins belief in Miller? I say probably not, yet.
  8. FlyingFinn
    Noticed that. But the guys that got traded for them are looking good as well.
  9. FlyingFinn
    He's been pitching poorly of late. ERA is up to 4.71. SO/BB ratio still isn't bad though.
  10. FlyingFinn
    At age 30, you look for best opportunity to get another chance in the show. He correctly sees that an injury or two to starters on the Twins gives him a prime chance to be called up again. Cotton, also age 30, goes through the same thing.
  11. FlyingFinn
    Moran is actually on the active roster and pitched on Friday night for the Saints. It will be Archer, Sands and Pagan today. If the game is tied or you have a close lead, you go to others. But I don't think there is any way we see Duran, Jax or Lopez. Still, I wouldn't have let Bundy go out there for the 5th and liked the bullpen usage yesterday to go for the win when you have the chance.
  12. FlyingFinn
    Pagan was warming up. Did we really want him to come in and give up 3 base runners and then Lopez to give up one mistake pitch for a homer? Imagine the comments then. Take the wins when we can get them and be happy.
  13. FlyingFinn
    Urbina, Severino and Helmin continue their one month or so streak of hitting well but Palacios is simply on fire! 2 more homers tonight. What has gotten into him! Nice pitching from the top three levels - Enlow seems to be getting a little streak of good outings going.
  14. FlyingFinn
    No, Palacios is really playing well at AAA and is a great fielder. He would be used until Lewis returns. And maybe beyond that if he plays well with Lewis also playing SS and OF.
  15. FlyingFinn
    Agreed. If you are the Twins or a border line hitter, wouldn't you practice bunting for a half hour every day. MLB players are so bad at it now that a border line player could get the last roster spot just because they are a great bunter.
  16. FlyingFinn
    Gordon, Jax and maybe a little bit of Cave are the surprises for me. That's why I'm not a GM. Love the hustle from guys, forcing the defense to make errors.
  17. FlyingFinn
    If Kepler, Larnach, Jeffers and Ober got healthy (without others getting hurt), St. Paul could look like a good team. As it is, they are playing well. Some very good pitching performances to go along with a lot of runs scored tonight. Derek Rodriguez, SWR, Headrick, Mullenbach, Hanner, Lavallee and Rimmel all go multiple innings and don't allow a run. Maybe we have some pitching left in the minors. Brent Rooker continues to be one of the all-time best AAA players, no matter what organization he is in.
  18. FlyingFinn
    I believe we are talking about guys who may come back yet. Maeda is #1 in my book. Alcala doesn't count as he is done for the year. Jeffers is better than Sanchez. Once Sanchez started catching every day, his batting tanked.
  19. FlyingFinn
    Is Varland better than Sands was last year in AA? I just think it takes these guys a year or so at AAA before they are really ready for MLB, and of course some don't make it. The Canterino's of the world, with better stuff, can make the jump more quickly IF they could just stay healthy.
  20. FlyingFinn
    Indeed, Perez is adding to his frequent flyer miles and going to Cedar Rapids today. Severino moved up to Wichita as well!
  21. FlyingFinn
    Helman - how does he compare to Nick Gordon? Same speed? They seem to play the same positions with what seems like the same level of effectiveness. Gordon with a big advantage in that he is already playing in the majors. Helman would provide tons more flexibility with max options left. Every time I count Gordon out after an 0 for 15, he gets 4 or 5 hits in two nights.
  22. FlyingFinn
    He still scares me. Doing better as he doesn't let the runners score when they load the bases, but there are still runners out there against him. Baby steps.
  23. FlyingFinn
    Agreed. Mikey Perez, probably temporarily to cover for Steer, is up with the Saints right now. Rucker's #'s surprised me. I didn't know he was doing this well at high A. Severino is really hitting now!
  24. FlyingFinn
    With Miranda looking like the real deal, I think that opens up dealing CES. Hajjar is the one that concerns me but he is a long ways away from the majors. We got rid of both of our lefty starting pitchers from the 2021 draft.
  25. FlyingFinn
    Covid related. Didn't count as using up an option.
