  1. If this is true it doesn't bode well for playoff ball.
  2. Rooker was in 7 games in 2020 and 58 games in 2021 with over 200 plate appearances. He hit a whopping .201, with a 37% k rate
  3. I still watch most games, but find myself picking up a book and reading after a couple innings. I leave the TV on and watch if anything happens.
  4. Stewart hamstring, Canterino season ending surgery, Tonkin extended spring training to start the year. Some thins never change.
  5. Just a small bone to pick with the title. There are no positive returns until they get to the majors with good results.
  6. Outside of our top 3, everyone else is a big question mark due to health concerns or age. I hope they have several back up plans in place.
  7. This!!! I'm so tired of them thinking everyone needs to be able to play multiple positions and learn them after getting to the majors. Most players can't do it.
  8. Can he stay healthy? If he is given the chance to settle in I think he would be ok defensively, but just like all the other Twins players he seems to be hurt a lot.
  9. Camargo must not be considered much of an option considering he got ZERO playing time when he was with the team this year.
  10. Keep Jax and make him a starter. Put Festa and in the pen. If Jax doesn't make it as a starter move him back and bring Zebby up or stretch Festa out. This will give Festa time to refine his pitches and maybe bulk up a little so he can go longer as a starter when he is ready. Trade Paddack for salary relief and keep Vazques but prioritize letting him work with all the young guys who will be pitching no matter what because of the payroll.
  11. I agree with Blyleven2011, Castro will be signed and then traded.
  12. Everyone wanting to fire Rocco and the coaches should consider this. They are doing exactly what the front office wants them to do. The days of the field staff having the freedom to run the team the front office put together are long gone. Decisions on what the hitting, pitching , and fielding philosophy should be are made by people above the field staff. Right or wrong this is the way it is now for most teams. I'm not saying the manager doesn't have a say, but he has to live with the group decisions that are made. If you want the team to emphasize other things Falvey and company have to be fired .
  13. None of us knows how bad his knee is. Its possible his knee wouldn't let him run any farther. It's also possible he was trying to stay healthy enough to keep playing knowing Buxton isn't coming back anytime soon, as this team rarely tell the truth about injuries. Also you don't have any proof that he is thinking about free agency in that moment. He could have stopped for any number of reasons.
  14. An ability to hit White Sox pitching doesn't mean much. Lets see what he does over the week or so.
  15. Not only does he have no history as pro, There's not much of an amateur record either. Most of his ranking has been based on potential not actual results.
  16. Probably not rational but I don't want the Twins giving the Sox anything that has the remotest chance of coming back to bite us in our backside.
  17. Did that god awful catchers gear gear distract Woods-Richardson enough to affect his command of the strike zone in the first inning.
  18. I don't disagree with you at all. However part of the fun of baseball is its the one sport where if you understand the game at all you can second guess the team management every game. We like to pretend were experts even if we know were not.
  19. I think the Twins are trying to turn AK and Julien into power hitters instead of letting them be high av. hitters with moderate power. They have them so confused trying to make them into something there not. If the Twins give up on them we'll see them become good hitters with another team.
  20. I'm sure Renden would b cheap, and we specialize in players who can't stay on the field. He's already on the 60 day so we wouldn't have to wait for the inevitable injury.
  21. This is something that should wait until the end of the season. The only way forward for the Twins is to trade away every player except Royce Lewis. Take what ever they can get. If Buxton and Correa want to enforce their no trade clauses DFA them. This includes every minor league player that has been exposed to the major league players. Fire the coaching staff and front office then change the name of the team to the walleyes or some other Minnesota appropriate name. Only half kidding here
