Twins Daily's Top-20 Prospects Gets a Post-Draft Shakeup
Jeff K replied to Cody Christie's topic in Twins Minor League Talk
2nd or 3rd for Lackey as many have said. I think Houston should be 4 and Winokur should be a couple slots higher.- 42 replies

Bring him up now. It looks like the Twins are waiting for a trade to open a slot for him, but they should get him up now.

David Festa And Mick Abel Likely Out For Rest Of 2026 Season
Jeff K replied to Cory Moen's topic in Minnesota Twins Talk
Festa is officially gone off the radar...at least for me. Dang it. -
I fully respect that. i've seen him a few times in spring training and find him intriguing to watch.

And all moving from positions where they were less successful. So very encouraging and Shelton absolutely deserves a great deal of credit for making these moves.

Great day on the farm and for the Twins. Nice to see Brandon Winokur with 3 hits.

Do NOT trade Ryan. Contend, don't contend, leave him on the team. They can trade in the off-season or try to extend. Do try to trade Jeffers IF you can get a reliever that can help the team. Doesn't have to be an 8th or 9th inning guy, but a good depth piece. Do trade either larnach or Bell. The team needs flexibility and two DH's doesn't cut it. Either (Larnach especially) or Bell should be able to bring a solid relief pitcher. It's time to find out about Walker Jenkins.

I think if you need at bats for Caratini, then maybe once a week, Lewis could play 3rd. In addition, he has a day off. That gets Caratini two days a week at 1st. And if I want my best team without making trades, I find a way to get Walker Jenkins in the lineup. Martin or Roden can be the 4th outfielder and Martin can still play some 2nd base.

Moving Buxton to DH weakens the team defense and that is a no go for me. Larnach and Bell should both be DH's. They should move one of them so the other doesn't need to own a glove. The only way to find out about Jenkiins is to call him up and play him. Assuming he goes to LF, the defense is improved and we start to find out about this guy. Is it a gamble? Of course. But teams have to make informed decisions and hope they work out. Of course, they have to trade Jeffers. Why let him go for nothing?

Which Twins Prospects Are Next in Line?

I mostly agree with that. My point is he will play pretty much every day, regardless of the two options.- 36 replies

Which Twins Prospects Are Next in Line?
Jeff K replied to Sam Caulder's topic in Twins Minor League Talk
I don't like the idea of holding back Culpepper or Jenkins. If they are ready, then bring them up and find playing tine. I suspect that Larnach or Bell will be traded to improve the Twins relief pitching. Culpepper can play SS, 3rd or 2nd and plays most days either as a back up to the those positions or a starter elsewhere. Obviously, the trade deadline influences these calls, but I don't want our promising youngsters held back.- 36 replies

Where Does Vahn Lackey Rank Among Twins Top Prospects?
Jeff K replied to Cody Christie's topic in Twins Minor League Talk
This is precisely how I see it. Culpepper is successful at AAA and ready for the majors. Lackey is a fantastic pick and looks like he has a great future, but the future is now for Culpepper. Lackey #3. And Houston #4.- 50 replies

Twins Minor League Report (7/12): Marek Houston is Incredible
Jeff K replied to Matt Braun's topic in Twins Minor League Talk
I've seen Winokur in spring training a few times and he has looked really good in the field whereever he has played. He is one of those players that are worth watching because you never know when he is going to do something. Such a unique player.- 44 replies

MLB Insider: Twins “Look Increasingly Unlikely to Sell”
Jeff K replied to Cody Christie's topic in Minnesota Twins Talk
Jeffers should bring a solid relief pitcher; do it. I would trade Larnach as he will never be worth more than now. I think he could bring a solid relief pitcher as well. After that, this team ought to be even more competitive. And let's not forget that Sands should be back soon; and hopefully Abel. It feels weird having a positive vibe & hope in the short term, vs. only looking to the future.
