Between possible regression with any of our starters and/or injuries, I would place money on Festa getting his shot before AAA is over.

I don't think Farmer is going anywhere until Lee is ready. His hitting in May has been better (still not great) than April. Hopefully, Farmer can bring his average up more and make him interesting to another team that has infield depth problems. But I think he is a Twin at least through June. And of course, I could be 100% wrong!

I wouldn't wait for Lewis. Julien needs to get has act back together at St. Paul, not with the big club.

What Should Happen to Miranda When Lewis Comes Back?
Jeff K commented on LA Vikes Fan's blog entry in LA Vikes Fan
Miranda has to stay with the Twins. Kirilloff's bat seems to be waking up. I don't think you send him down unless he goes back into a slump. I think the easy call is to launch Margot. I could also see a scenario where Julien is sent down and Castro becomes the mostly full time 2nd baseman while Julien gets a reset at St. Paul. I would also consider bringing up DeShawn Keirsey to help in CF. If the call up were today; launch Margot and send down Julien. When Julien re-establishes his hitting, then another decision will be in order that could involve Farmer. -
And I think Miranda is a better candidate for first base with Royce lewis coming back shortly.

I'd bring him up and lose Margot. There will need to be another move made when Royce Lewis is ready. Then they have to figure out which hitter isn't making enough progress to stay on the big league roster. But we need a better choice in CF when Buxton isn't out there.

I think our top 4 starters can have that level of trust. Not for SWR and not when they have an off day following.

I'd like to see Margot exit the team and bring back Wallner. And I agree that Martin should be sent down when Buxton is back.

I think Miranda and Larnach are two of the best stories to the season thus far. Wallner appears to be finding his game at SP and then our outfield depth will be even better.

Hopefully we get a healthy Buxton back this week and the Margot experiment can come to a close. Regarding the relief pitchers, obviously Brock Stewart is needed. I am hopeful that Staumont will be a solid contributor going forward. I don't trust Jackson or Sands.

I've been wondering the same and prefer to see Varland in late inning relief roles. Unfortunately, I think the answer is that we still need depth in starting pitching. Our 5 are going great, but we all know that injuries, or regression will demonstrate that another starter is needed. Right now, that's Varland.

I believe the "Sands of time" are turning against him. With Brock Stewart on the DL, they need to be more creative with the late inning pitchers...and I don't think that should include Sands.

I agree with your comments. I would add that there is a saying from my business days that "the fish rots at the head". And by that I mean the Pohlads. I know that their revenue was certain to go down this year; however, they did not get it done in finding a new way to keep our games on TV. They have to own that. Additionally, it's not like the Pohlads are poor. With the Twins wide open performance window, they should have dug into their savings and kept the team salary at last year's level.

Ranking the Twins Veterans Most Likely to Be Let Go
Jeff K replied to Cody Christie's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
I don't think I understand your comment that Julien is stuck on 2nd. That's where he belongs, his fielding has improved and Polanco is on the downside of his career.- 75 replies

I agree. I also see it as "addition by subtraction". Polanco could only play 2nd base and that needs to be Julien. I would not bet on Jorge returning to previous performance levels. He appears to be on the downside of his career with diminishing returns.

Miguel Sanó Finding Second Life in Los Angeles
Jeff K replied to Cody Christie's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
Well said. I usually don't actively dislike players (unless they are Yankees); however, I despise Sano for wasting the Twins time, effort and money while squandering the talents he was given. It all feel apart when he had to work for it. I would not be surprised to see him fall back to his lazy ways.
