    I saw him pinch run for Bell and score the winning run. Jokes aside his spot is as a backup. We are running with Caratini and Jeffers the rest of the way. Better hope neither gets injured.

    I personally think we have still done screwy things with our bench.

    Roden. Actually what I would have done is traded Jeffers at the deadline.
  12. Hawkeye Bean Counter
    I didn’t see Jackson as a reason we lost a game. That’s my personal opinion. Now we have carried worse players including Gray who is in AAA.

    He’s not but he was a good option at good value.

    Dodgers traded for 2 catchers worse than Jackson - Red Sox traded for 2 catchers 1 worse than Jackson and I believe 1 - more fringe catchers were traded as well.
  20. Hawkeye Bean Counter
    Then why did we carry 3 catchers for 5 weeks and not cash in on him at the deadline. Thats what has confused me. I don’t understand the rational or what changed.
  21. Hawkeye Bean Counter
    And yet he has 2 years of positive WAR. 2025 Jackson is not the same player as 2020. Using these career statistics is beyond lazy. He is good enough quality to be a backup. With no options and a higher arbitration number for next year it may get him through waivers yet again.

    Any time we have taken a big swing it has failed. Donaldson, Correa. So I’m not sure you can say the Twins are not doing what you want them to do. We are still paying for Correa hence why we have gone the bargain bin route.
  30. Hawkeye Bean Counter
    The issue is we have had a solid brand of baseball but nothing exciting. There is no one player that I have to take the family to each year. Donaldson wasn’t here during a playoff run so likely not a fair assessment of Twins fans.
  31. Hawkeye Bean Counter
    He is a short term potential depth piece. He has opt outs in August and Sept. For a playoff team has to be on the roster by Sept. 1st. The Twins can likely see if they can find something to pair with the 93 mph fastball. Of the MILB teams he probably felt his best chance to be called up to the MLB was with the Twins and he is probably right.
  32. Hawkeye Bean Counter
    It shows I was incorrect on my rational why they were keeping him. It happens. The issue is it doesn’t make sense to me when you could have gotten value at the deadline. We will see what happens. Maybe he passes through, I doubt it for a cheap catcher that has shown flashes.
  33. Hawkeye Bean Counter
    No it shows the rational for carrying during that time frame was pointless. Ultimately his production can be reproduced but will have to pay or trade for it next year.
  34. Hawkeye Bean Counter
    Should have traded him. Really odd to carry him this long when you had a good demand for catchers at the deadline.
  35. Hawkeye Bean Counter
    I would argue playing the Royals and Orioles is as much of the calculation. Both teams that are slightly anemic on offense and neither team is known for having power hitters which has been his bugaboo.
