  1. It sure does look like Austin Martin has hit real well since he got sent down. Surely he would be a great improvement over someone like Margot if management would accept they made a mistake and dnf him. Looks like Lee should get moved back to AAA to see if he's ready for the show or not. Jenkins looks like he should go to high A and work towards a late season call up to AAA. Hope E-Rod isn't hurt too bad, I think he's earned a promotion more than anyone this year.
  2. It all depends on how much we'd have to give up. Keep in mind, he's already injury prone, and young guys throwing 100 plus are most likely going to need tommy John at some point, not to mention to volatility of relievers from year to year. That said ittd be nice to have a cheap closer locked in for a lot of years.
  3. How about Jeffers? He's been our best power hitter this year, and it's not even close.
  4. Glad to see Cory Lewis pitching again. Raya seems to be all over the place. Hopefully Festa has another good start tonight. If he continues to pitch well he may get a shot with the twins soon. I think Paddack will need a 15 day break to limit his innings soon.
  5. It's been fun to watch Miranda and Larnach hitting their tails off like they don't want to be sent down anytime soon. Julien looks absolutely lost at the plate and I think he really needs a reset in AAA.
  6. Best move would be to DFAd Margot, but I doubt it will happen. Next best idea would be to send Julien down for a reset. Then he can battle with Brooks Lee to see who gets the call back up. Miranda and Larnach are some of our better hitters right now, we need them in the lineup. If AK continues to struggle, replace him temporarily with Martin or Keirsey Jr.
  7. Doncon looking like he can really hit. I'm also curious about the glove and where he'll fit defensively. Keaschal looking like the real deal. Another infielder that can hit! Nice to have, but what I think we really need are pitchers
  8. Love the idea. Been wanting to get a look at Festa in the majors to see what he can do.
  9. I think when Lewis comes back Julien should go down for a reset at AAA and try to find a solution for the strikeouts. Castro and Farmer can hold down 2nd base until either Lee is ready or Julien figures it out. I also think it's time to accept Varland is not a starter and try to use him as another high leverage bullpen piece like late last year. Duran, Alcala and Varland would give us 3 guys in the pen throwing 100mph.
  10. The fact that a lot of Falvey and Levine recent trades have blown up in our faces, shouldn't discourage them from ever trying again. Just stop taking on injured pitchers! Mahle, Dyson, Disco, Topa....nothing you can do about a guy that GETS hurt while playing for us, but guys that end up hurt before throwing a single inning for us? Are we not doing thorough physicals?!
  11. I sure hope Keirsey, E-ROD and Mathews aren't too hurt. It's nice when all of our top prospects are both healthy and producing. Until this injury I was hoping for a Keirsey Jr call up which would open up an every day spot at AAA for Rodriguez.
  12. I think Farmers the kind of guy that needs steady playing time in order to hit well. I couldn't understand why the twins gave him that much money, in a payroll crunch, to be a backup IF when we had younger cheaper guys that could do the same thing. I just keep thinking of what we might have been able to get if we didn't pay Farmer, Santana and Margot. Probably could've used that 15 million plus in the rotation or a power bat at first base or left field...
  13. They'll find somewhere for him to play if he keeps hitting. Wasn't Miranda a 2nd baseman in the minors? Maybe have him take over for Julien for awhile, give him a reset at AAA. I do think the twins need to spend some money and finally get a long term, power hitting 1baseman
  14. I think it's been great what we've been able to get out of him. He's still only 23, maybe there's even another gear there yet to be unlocked... I still say we need a top tier starter and one or two high leverage BP guys. Would be nice if Stewart could get healthy. Duran, Jax, Stewart, Alcala and Varland looks like a powerful bullpen to me.
  15. They can't afford another 20 million dollar salary. If Miranda continues to hit like he is, then he might be our long term fit at 1b. If they somehow do decide to buy at the deadline, I'd like to see a top tier starter and one or two solid bullpen arms.
  16. Nice to see our prospects healthy and producing now. I say give Keirsey Jr his much deserved shot in the bigs. This will also open up everyday playing time at AAA for E-Rod.
  17. I think once everyone's healthy we swap Julien for Lee. Margot for Keirsey Jr with E-Rod sent to AAA waiting for his shot if Keirsey doesn't show much. Miranda could play 1b once Lewis comes back and takes over 3b.
  18. While not a top prospect because he's a bit older, I say Keirsey Jr!
  19. Twins still need another top tier starter if they hope to win a playoff series this year. It's good to see Ryan doing well but he looked this good last year too, and then the second half happened.
  20. Keirsey deserves a shot. Replace him with AK or Larnach short term and see what happens. Also move E-Rod up to AAA, he's got nothing left to prove at Wichita.
  21. Julien definitely needs a reset at AAA. We could cover 2nd in the short term with Farmer and Castro. Might even be a way to get Miranda more consistent at bats if he can still play second. Long term, Lee should be back up in AAA soon. Will be interesting to see how he handles AAA pitching this year. He's looked great in a tiny sample since coming off the IL.
  22. Sure is nice to have most of our top prospects both healthy and producing again. Festa could get a call up later this year if he keeps this up:)
