    Byron has been injured for 9 years. He has rarely if ever been someone to rely on. What this kid could have done with a healthy body and some physical self control could have been historic. But after all this time it just comes down to this is who he is. If he goes to center, or any outfield position he will wildly run into a wall or dive needlessly for a ball that only 22 year old Byron could catch, and that will be that. His season will end. We should not be surprised. It has happened almost every year of his career. It's too bad. We all wanted him to be great. I'm afraid that was only a dream.

    For me Rocco is #1. I just think he has his face in the analytic manual too often and forgets to watch the game. Or maybe he just lacks some instincts for managing a pitching staff. 2. Of course, I'm disappointed in Miranda, but he started slow last year too and then suddenly settled in. Now he has no place to play because of #3 3. Byron's inability to play CF negates any flexibility at DH. Plus he seems to always get a pass from media. Injuries or not the kid has been a disappointment for nine years. 4. Correa yes but he will bounce back. He's a pro and looks to be great in the clubhouse. The PF is concerning though. 5. There are more I suppose but we are in first place in a terrible division so it looks like they have time to work things out and run away with the central. Go Twins 6. Bally Sports North

    Hate to put it this way but, it doesn't really matter. It was a business decision and once you pull the trigger on these things there really is no looking back. Good luck to the former Twins prospects but frankly they are of no concern. Making a run in the 23 playoffs is the goal and Mahle gives the Twins a real chance to do so.

    At 65 yrs old I cannot remember a Twins season that has left me feel so empty. The game has changed so drastically, and the players play so infrequently that it's difficult for me to feel a connection or an allegiance to a group of young men that I can't identify with. I could bemoan the injuries or the complete lack of continuity in our manages everyday lineup, or the mystifying way pitching staffs are managed these days, but it would not help fill the void I feel in the sport I grew up living and loving. It's difficult for me to watch a 9-inning game these days. Never thought I'd say that. Maybe its time for me to just remember the game as it was and be done with it, before the oversized bases and the new pitch clock frustrate me further. Don't care to see another 7-inning double header game or an extra inning runner again either. Maybe I'll break out my old Strat-o-Matic cards and play my own season next year. There may be some comfort to be found, for me at least, in the simplicity of the past.

    All Star Absolutely. He reminds me of the way the game used to be played and in my opinion still should be, however, 5th place hitter in our lineup, no. Needs to always lead off instead of Buxton. This is your father talking.
