  1. Development is not linear. Doesn't cause any concern unless we are having this conversation next fall.
  2. Are there any options for 1B on the free agent market?
  3. Have no doubt Shelton will develop a good plan to get the kid his at bats but also shield him in certain situations. There are different ways to win a game and I like that Rodriguez, Walker, Keaschall and Lee all bring that ability to the park.
  4. With Lewis being able to play 1B, 2B and 3B would he not be a candidate for an utility role? He has decent speed and a decent glove. I am hoping the Twins find a left handed 1B to possible platoon with Lewis. He is too young to give up see Larnach and Lee from last year. If the Twins are going to play in October they must strengthen the back end of the roster. At 5 million I think Lewis can help in that area.
  5. There are few 2B out there better than Clemens defensively or batting. He can even hit LHP.
  6. All the more reason to have starting pitching depth of up to 10 pitchers. It is today's baseball so if you want to win you had better have the depth.
  7. Kendry Rojas ?? Bailey Ober?? Both candidates for bullpen if they don't make starting rotation.
  8. Jeffers is not a good catcher. He has more than his share of passed balls and some wild pitches that should be passed balls. His value is in his hitting and that maybe a bit of a gamble to the team he signs with. He reaches for too many balls instead of moving his body and his throwing arm is average at best. Let Caratini play 4 or 5 games in a row to see what happens. I don't think we will as bad as people think at the position next year.
  9. Time to switch Hoffman and Gomez. Looks to me to be a more logical way to deploy the bullpen.
  10. Would it not be wonderful to have on any given night a Keaschal, Buxton, Rodriguez, Clemens or Jenkins on your bench to insert into a game if needed. This is where the Twins need to get to. Quality depth wins divisions and championships. That is the first step. Next year the Twins will be there with their hitting and pitching. Having to find playing time for good players is a problem Shelton would love to have. We all know injuries play a big part in a winning season. The Twins should be able to do that next year and I am looking forward to that.
  11. Put him in the lineup everyday next to Culpepper and Jenkins. Hopefully they will provide a glimpse of next year"s Twins lineup.
  12. After this weekend E Rod should be with the Twins with regular at bats for the last 2 weeks of season.
  13. There is no quit in this team. Who gets credit for that?
  14. Hopefully Jenkins, Rodriguez and Gonzalez follow in Culpepper footsteps.
