    Joe will be just fine. The defense as it is right now, will do him no favors
  2. LambchoP
    Buck is one of the few reasons to watch the Twins this year. Hopefully he stays for his whole career. He could be a great mentor for the young outfielders coming up.
  3. LambchoP
    Grey should be getting more reps at SS if Lee can't get it together. Culpeper will take over sometime this summer after they secure another year of service time. It is beyond obvious that Outman needs to go and give his spot to Roden. As someone said he can platoon with Martin in LF, pinch hit, pinch run, late game defensive sub. There are opportunities for him.

    Nice to dream, but all these guys are either injured or coming off Injuries:(
  5. LambchoP
    Maybe he can learn a knuckleball? 😆
  6. LambchoP
    Releasing Outman and calling up Roden would be a start. He probably clears waivers anyways if they want to keep him in AAA as depth. Give Lee another week or two of everyday playing time. If he doesn't show anything, send him down and call up Culpeper. Maybe that gives the team a little life?

    Zebby struggling to start the year does not bode well for the Twins starting rotation. Ober looking like he might be cooked, Abel not finding his control. All this is much worse when we have no legit arms ready to step up in St Paul...

    Twins should just sell off all our veterans at the deadline and get the best talent back that they can. Call up the next wave ala Jenkins, Rodriguez, Gonzalez and Culpeper. Fans will be more forgiving watching the team lose as long as the youth movement is underway building for the future. Much better than watching a bunch of slow veterans flailing away at the plate and booting balls all over the field .

    Outman needs to go. He would probably even clear waivers at this point. Bring up Roden. Then, if Wallner can't learn to hit by the end of April send him down for a reset and call up Rodriguez. Give Lee a month or two to figure it out. If he can't, give Culpeper a shot.

    Seems like the same issues we had last year. Starting pitchers inefficient. Early exits, overworked bullpen leading to lots of blow ups and losses. I can bet that our pen is going to be one big game of musical chairs throughout the year with lots of waiver claim type guys coming and going.
  11. LambchoP
    At this point early on, Larnach looks locked in while Wallner looks completely lost at the plate. Not sure if Larnach can play RF opening up LF for Martin, but Wallner may need a reset in St. Paul. It worked last year anyways:). On the pitching side, I really worry about Ober. If he's only throwing 88-89 this early I don't think he's going to last. With Abel being a crapshoot and Zebby not looking good in AAA, I think they should really sign Giolito. That is if they really want to compete this year, which I'm not sure they really do....
  12. LambchoP
    Seems our bullpen rebuild plan is just sign as many minor league guys as we can and see if any can stick as a serviceable big league arm. Would be nice if we'd swing a trade or something to get at least one legit MLB late inning arm. Relying on Sands, Topa and Rogers to consistently close games is pretty laughable...
  13. LambchoP
    Keaschal and Buxton may be the only offensive guys worth watching in this lineup, unless Lewis keeps hitting. If the rest of the "old guard" ( Lee, Wallner, Larnach, Clemens)don't show much, I'd like to see them lose playing time to the new wave.( Rodriguez, Gonzalez, Jenkins and Culpeper. At least we have some bats to look forward too. Our pitching still needs work.
  14. LambchoP
    Taj Bradley has some nasty stuff. When is the last time the Twins had a SP that could hot 100mph? If he can tighten up his control a bit, he could be a fun guy to watch this year. I know it's still the first series, but so far Lee has not looked good at all. He looks lost and can't seem to hold off breaking balls down in the zone. At the same time, Culpeper went 3-5 in game one and hit a 3 run HR in game two. If it continues like this I think you need to make a move. Call up Culpeper to start at SS and let Lee be the infield utility guy who can cover 2nd, SS and 3rd.
  15. LambchoP
    Looks like Ryan, Buxton, Keaschal and any top prospect debuts will be some of the few reasons to watch this year. I'm worried game one will be an indication of the season. Poor situational hitting and a daily pounding off our bullpen guys:(
  16. LambchoP
    I'd like to see Festa in the pen. We need some quality RH arms out there. If they are worried about SP depth they should sign Giolito. I'm sure this late in the spring he would agree to sign with us for pretty cheap. It would also signal to the fans that ownership does actually want to compete this year.
  17. LambchoP
    I'm more excited about seeing the debut of some of our prospects this year. Rodriguez, Jenkins, Gonzalez, Culpeper. If these guys have success along with Keaschal and a rebound from one of Lewis or Lee, our lineup could be fun to watch. As far as pitching goes.....:(
  18. LambchoP
    I'm just hoping to see the next wave of young talent get an extended run of playing time. I'm anticipating another sell off at the deadline and I hope we do well with the players we get back, and not acquire more redundant players or positions like LH outfielders!
  19. LambchoP
    The team did nothing to improve their defense or rebuild the bullpen that was torn apart at the deadline last year. And yet they are trying to say we are going to compete this year. Total incompetence. Hopefully we get the right kind of player returns at the deadline. I'm guessing Ryan, Jeffers and maybe even Buck will be gone. If we can get some quality, near MLB ready, young athletic, controllable pieces back we might be in a better place in a year or two.
  20. LambchoP
    This season should be not about chasing a wildcard spot, but debuting and assessing our prospects and young talent. They need to figure out which of our vets need to go and how many and which of our young guys are ready for everyday starts. That way in the off-season we can start to actually construct a functional roster.
  21. LambchoP
    May be the worst pen in baseball:(
  22. LambchoP
    He just needs experience. He has missed so much development time due to injuries. Hopefully he can put together close to a full season of at bats and log a lot of OF innings this year.
  23. LambchoP
    They should be trying to trade Jackson and Larnach for some RH relief help. We need someone who can handle the late innings and protect the rare leads we might have:)
  24. LambchoP
    The roster management for this team has been terrible. At least we're trying to shop Jackson but I doubt they'll be any takers. Maybe we can package Larnach and Jackson and get some RH bullpen help. Or a legit backup SS?
  25. LambchoP
    I'm just hoping for health and full seasons for these guys. Prelipp, Hill, Quick, Soto. We have some interesting arms if we can develop them right.
