  1. That game was not enjoyable to watch. Taj was terrible. I get that Keaschall's play in the outfield did not make the difference, but so what. It was an embarrassment. As others have noted, how can an excellent athlete be so bad in the field? I've been a fan of his, but good grief, he truly is starting to look like Julien.
  2. And I am hopeful he gets a chance with the Twins. But I believe that Walker Jenkins is a better choice to go up and help the team. He certainly should help defensively and hopefully offensively. Mid to late August is a tough time to come up for Emma and his strikeout rate. Unless there is an injury, or both Martin and Roden fail; I don't see Emma coming up until maybe the small roster expansion in September.
  3. I am also ready for Jenkins to be called up. His hitting post return from injury has been excellent. And Emma's strike out rate is very concerning. The Twins can sort out his eligibiity in Spring Training. If he doesn't make the team, then so be it.
  4. Brandon Winokur oozes potential. That home run cleared the fence by a lot and it didn't look like he even caught the pitch flush.
  5. While it felt terrible at the time, I was fine with all of the trades with the common exception of Varland which inexplicably truly angered me. And I still don't like it. I loved the Bradley trade at the time and love it even more now. I take it from an A to an A+. Regarding Rocco, I don't care what he does for the rest of his career; he was a terrible manager with the Twins and seemed to get worse each season. His spreadsheet management was terrible.
  6. Well, they didn't make the trade, so that's a good sign.
  7. This is a solid bullpen. I think last night's game demonstrated who the bottom two are based on their low leverage use.
  8. Walker JenkinsVahn LackeyKaelen CulpepperMarek HoustonRiley QuickEmmanuel RodriguezEduardo TaitHendry MendezGabriel GonzalezBrandon WinokurCarson TinneyCharlee SotoRyan GallagherKhadim DiawEthan WachsmannBrett RenfrowJames EllwangerEnrique JimenezYasser MercedesCJ Culpepper This is a strong list! I pulled off Young from 17 and replaced him with CJ Culpepper. Speaking of Culpepper, with Kaelen called up today, I would pull him off and add back in Marco Raya.
  9. I'm a bit curious why Emma is still rehabbing and not back with St. Paul. File this under wishful thinking, but perhaps he fills Jenkins slot after he get's called up today.
  10. His hitting is encouraging. I also think that with experience, Royce can be an above average fielding first baseman. I would 100% stop playing him at 2nd base and only in rare situations at 3rd base. He is now the Twins 1st basemen unless the hitting stops.
  11. This is an impressive list. Kaelen Culpepper was called up today so I would be nice to add a 21st player. That would get Marco Raya back on the list.
  12. You've got to give to get. I like the trade. I suspect we lose Jeffers after the season, and maybe they could have gotten a haul from the Red Sox; but Rutchman has team control for another year.
  13. I see you are working hard on garnering the most on thumbs down. You're a fun lad.
  14. 2nd or 3rd for Lackey as many have said. I think Houston should be 4 and Winokur should be a couple slots higher.
  15. 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.
  16. Festa is officially gone off the radar...at least for me. Dang it.
