  1. Is one of Jenkins, E-Rod, or Roden close to coming off of the IL? Seems early to shift away from a position if you're clearing for someone else.
  2. Isn't he currently on the team as an outfield instructor. If we are going down that rabbit hole, we can try to give Grady Sizemore a glove. He already has the uniform.
  3. This comparison is for 2026. For reference, McCutchen was just DFA'd by the Rangers. Although he hasn't played CF this year, I bet he still could in a pinch and would be a better crafty veteran holding a spot for the younger guys than Outman.
  4. I don't specifically have an issue with role players as well. The Twins had Billy Hamilton for half a season in 2022. Willians Astudillo for four seasons. Even Kyle Farmer gave a small pork processing plant in Mandan, ND named Cloverdale Meats some breath for a couple months. They still need to be a glue piece that can help the team on some way, shape, or form. I'm not sure where Outman is helping the team over anyone else that could be called up or shifted to replace him, even if he is a great teammate.
  5. Customary bullpen report. Following the lead of @C-Gangster. Panic level: Yellow. Orze, Rojas, and Adams seem to be the freshest out of the pen.
  6. I can see the 4K performance combined with a bad ABS challenge as being Wallner-esque and possibly the final straw that he has to go. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong. Gabby was called up while Gray was on the paternity list so he should be available for recall right away without the traditional waiting period? The Saints are playing in Louisville so it's not that far of a drive or flight to Chicago. Gabby could play RF and Martin or Kriedler in CF. I guess playing Clemens in CF is desperation to get more LF/Switch bats in the lineup. Seems crazy with going from too many LH batters to not enough. The Skor North Twins Show made a report today that Buxton has not been cleared to play CF yet. I'm not sure how his hips work for hitting the ball, but not for playing CF since the amount of stress you put on your hips swinging a bat or running the bases. That is for someone with more medical knowledge than I. They also speculated the reason Outman is still on the team is "chemistry" when talking to Shelton about it. Think Kyle Farmer. All discussion concerning Outman is about how great of a teammate he is and very little about his actual play on the field.
  7. Update: Looks like Martin will be pushed back a day. The White Sox are calling up David Sandlin from AAA Charlotte to make the start tonight. Hopefully a boost for us against Prielipp.
  8. Make him take Amtrak back to the Twin Cities. The station stops at St Paul.
  9. Alright Twins, unlike in real hunting, there is no limit with bagging more ducks!
  10. Had he not swung the bat, he would have been on 1st.
  11. And I am going to send my apologies to Josh Bell and his defense.
  12. Didn't say it was smart. Just that desperate times call for desperate calls
  13. I think the send says more about their chances with Keaschall or Outman getting a hit than it did with Clemens running.
  14. Hence why that was listed at my most annoying commercial this year.
  15. I may not agree with the spirit of the call, but at least the ump explained it where you could see it.
  16. I thought that play was closer than the HBP that they allowed to stand. I honestly thought this play would stand as well.
  17. I was concerned about that. If anyone was going to mess up Joe's start, it should be Joe.
  18. I agree. You only work on sending him down if it starts affecting his defense or if it doesn't seem like he is responding to coaching or instruction.
  19. Call stands not confirmed. I'm not sure what they couldn't see.
  20. That likely kills Ryan's chances of completing the game. I'm not sure he comes out for the 8th unless there's a batter they think he can get.
  21. Garcia did accept his assignment to St Paul after being DFA'd so there are replacements waiting in the wings.
  22. I'm going with this one from Rotowire since the TD page one from yesterday didn't seem to format well. It looks like from here that everyone but SWR would be available. Maybe not Rojas if they have a specific plan for him.
