Hey...there are SO many craters with the Twins right now including many unproven pitchers....look at this roster.. Gasper stinks as do others on this roster. There are players like Lewis who are not performing. Yes, Clemens is a 3rd option emergency .
Well...there are not many options..Perada doesn't probably know the system or signs yet...only been on the team a couple of days...guess they could put Clemens behind the plate as he was the 3rd backup ...or maybe bring Conger out of retirement
I so much enjoy watching Buxton as a player, but his injuries (understand that he can't help it) over the years must be close to setting a team record.
Also note that there are basically 4 AAA players in the Twins starting line up today Gasper, Fitzgerald, Martin, and Rodent ....they have spent most of their season at a lower level.
I sincerely like Royce as a player...but i watched him from the front row play in Sacramento...he needs guidance ....part of it is psychological based on his behavior after his at bats in my opinion..
