    Keaschal has been real fun to follow and although this is his rookie year, he sure seems like the real deal. Glad the twins are having him learn multiple positions so that when he does get to the show, they'll have options for where they can play him. Hopefully we can keep him healthy:)

    Great to see Priellip back. Hopefully we can do the same for Canterino eventually. It's too bad, but it sure seems like Festa and Raya are really struggling and may be folding a bit under the pressure of being a top prospect. I think if a team is willing to offer up a controllable starting pitcher then we should build a package around one or both of Festa and Raya. Seems to me Zebby Mathews and Morris have both passed up the other two on our pitching prospect lists

    Why on earth would you DH your backup catcher who is also the worst hitters on the team? Especially on the same night you have Margot hitting leadoff?! Did Rocco even want to win this one? Why call up Camargo just to DH the automatic out Vasquez. His only value is being a good defensive catcher, so naturally Rocco sends him out there as a DH....
  4. LambchoP
    I'd think Flaherty or Kikuchi would be within our price range?
  5. LambchoP
    Barring injuries, our lineup is fine. Maybe try to trade Farmer Margot and possibly Santana for some prospects. Bullpen should be solid if we can trade for a lefty reliever. I do think we need a playoff caliber starter to take the place of Paddack or SWR. Eovaldi would be great, Flaherty or maybe Fedde, if they'd be willing to trade with us in the division. I highly doubt we spend the farm on someone like Crochet or take on any large contracts...
  6. LambchoP
    Keaschal sure looks like the real deal, moving really quickly through the minors. He's probably our best trade chip besides the untouchable guys like Jenkins, Lee and E Rodriguez.
  7. LambchoP
    I think at the very least we need a lefty for the bullpen. Maybe we keep one of either Theilbar or Okert for our playoff roster but I've got little to no faith in either of them in close games.
  8. LambchoP
    I think we need an impact starter with another year of control at least. We could then move Paddack to the bullpen strengthening our rotation and relief corps. All we need then is a set up type lefty reliever and I'd be happy with our deadline. Of course, if we could trade Farmer, Margot and or Santana for anything at all would be a bonus:)
  9. LambchoP
    I also think either Julien or Severino could be a good trade piece. Both seem blocked in our infield. Maybe we can package them with a few others to gain some pitching help? If they do trade these young guys, I hope it's for a starter, and one with at least another year of control. Fedde looked pretty good against us yesterday....Crochet and Luzardo will be too expensive but Fedde? Kikuchi? Tyler Anderson?
  10. LambchoP
    I'd take Kikuchi. Give him Paddacks spot in the rotation and have Paddack pitch in relief. Strengthens our rotation and bullpen. Would be nice to have a lefty starter on the staff too. I would rather them go after a starting pitcher with at least another year of control however. I'm not too impressed with Paddack being a starter next year, and as good as SWR has looked so far, I'm expecting some regression soon once the league has had a good look at him...
  11. LambchoP
    I think our best infield alignment for the best offense would be Miranda at 1b. Lee at 2nd. Correa at SS. Lewis at 3rd. Julien and Castro as backup. This will require Miranda learning and playing more first, and Lee learning to play second. Didn't he play 2nd in the minors though?
  12. LambchoP
    Good first half,but if we're going to catch Cleveland or even TRY to win a playoff series, then we need a solid starter and at least one reliever. Preferably a real good lefty and a good righty. Time to move on from Farmer Margot and Santana. Trade them for whatever we can get, even if it's just a salary dump. We're getting much better production from our prospects and young players and it will be great for their development to play meaningful September games. Should be a fun second half of we can stay healthy, especially the pitching staff.
  13. LambchoP
    It was only two starts, Festa will be fine. Needs to work on his command and his changeups which got crushed. He also either needs another pitch, or figure out a better way to attack lefties. This was his first cup of coffee in the majors, I think Festa will be pitching for the Twins for many years still.
  14. LambchoP
    Is Emmanuel Rodriguez still hurt? I thought I read he was back again after jamming his thumb sliding into second.
  15. LambchoP
    Nice to see Stewart, Gabriel Gonzalez and Emmanuel Rodriguez all healthy again. Getting Stewart back will be a real boon for our pen down the stretch and into the playoffs. Hopefully Topa can follow suit.
  16. LambchoP
    It's nice to see a young guy walking as much as striking out. He'll be a good player for us I'm sure, but he's still years away. I think Emmanuel Rodriguez will be the outfielder to look at for a call up next year if he keeps hitting like he has this year. Maybe eventually take over left field. Rodriguez, Buxton and Wallner is a pretty good OF.
  17. LambchoP
    None of these guys. We need a playoff caliber starter and a lefty handed reliever. If we can get those, I'd be happy with our deadline. If we can get anything for Farmer and/or Margot, then all the better.
  18. LambchoP
    Donaldson was a total dousche. Anyone else remember him getting ejected AFTER hitting a home run a few years back? That was so stupid, first time I'd ever seen that!
  19. LambchoP
    I think our offense is good enough. What we need is an impact starter who can take the rotation spot from Paddack and move Paddack to the bullpen the rest of the year. With him, Stewart and Topa, we've got plenty of righties. We need to find a solid late inning lefty and I'll feel good about our playoff chances. Need a starter and lefty reliever. If we can dump Farmer for anything at all, even better...
  20. LambchoP
    Would be great to get Eovaldi, especially if the rangers agree to eat some of his salary. Robertson would be a nice upgrade to our bullpen, but I think we need a lefty more than righties. Theilbar has looked better lately, but I've got little to no trust in Funderburk or Okert in close games.
  21. LambchoP
    I think we'll have enough righties in our bullpen. Duran, Jax, Stewart, Alcala, Topa...maybe Varland or Paddack. What we need is a high octane lefty. Oh, and a playoff caliber starter would really help too.
  22. LambchoP
    Having both Larnach and Wallner hitting well makes it a little easier to whether a trade of Kepler. All three are lefties, although Kepler is a better defender than all of them. Not to mention we also have Keirsey playing real well in AAA who can play all three OF spots. Both Martin and Castro are decent defenders. Plus we have Em Rodriguez coming up... Good depth is a nice problem to have! We got some trade options if we want to go for a pitcher this year, which we should
  23. LambchoP
    I'd be all in on Eovaldi. I think the only way we bring on his contract is if we can find someone to take on Kepler, Farmer maybe Margot to open up some payroll ....would still rather have Crochet or Luzardo but either one of them is going to be extremely costly prospect wise.
  24. LambchoP
    I'd say trade Farmer for anything at all if we can, otherwise cut ties and be done. We've got enough infielders and if we need another one due to injury, Severino has a hot bat in AAA
  25. LambchoP
    I think a solid lefty in the rotation could help in a number of ways. Same for a high leverage lefty reliever. I don't see the Twins spending or taking on any big contracts, but if we could get a decent starter and move Paddack to the bullpen I'd feel good about our pitching staff.
