    Very nice start from Ober. He was throwing well and absolutely shouldve been out there to start the 6th inning. Yet another game the BP gave away. They came into a tied, winnable game and made it a blowout again.

    What a clutch hit from Clemens to tie it up. Too bad it was wasted. 2 hits. No walks. Lucky to score twice Back to winning ways with Kremer tomorrow!

    He has become my favorite player on the team. Anywhere you put him, hes been good to great on defense. Has good power. Been a great teammate.
  4. soyouresayingtheresachance
    I agree. Its a natural progression down the defensive spectrum. My opinion, with Buxton still being a capable CFer, I'd discuss the move with him 1st to make sure hes ok with it. I feel like hes earned that.
  5. soyouresayingtheresachance
    Trade them both. Larnach is a platoon hitter that cant play defense. No room on the rosyer for guys like him. For Ober, the rotation already has 6 guys fighting for 5 spots before adding Ober to the equation. Plus Rojas, Festa and Zebby at AAA. Again, just no room for him with e eryone else waiting.

    Nothing like snatching defeat from the jaws of victory!

    His bat is usually quite good. High OBP. Hes a guy you definitely want in the lineup but man he needs to learn a defensive position that isn't going to constantly hurt us.

    The #1 team in the way of us making the playoffs is the MN Twins. If we got out of our own way months ago, we'd likely not need an article like this. The talent is here. Just too darn many mistakes on an almost daily basis. Not just on the field, the front office, too. The questionable roster decisions. The inexplicably keeping guys like Outman, Gray, etc around far to long. Its all brought us to this point. It wont matter how well of how poor other teams play the rest of the way if we dont clean up our own messes and play better baseball.

    Keaschall is just awful on defense. Its tough to watch. The bat, though. The has been quite good since he broke out of that early season slump. OBP around .400 since May or something like that? Rough day for Taj. No ABS cost us on both sides of the ball tonight. Short memory. Prielipp is up next. Let's get that W

    100% agree. Usually get jumped all over when criticizing recent call ups, so i wanted to word it differently. But definitely agree. He doesn't seem to have it.
  11. soyouresayingtheresachance
    Its very possible. He definitely has potential. Hopefully he can harness it.
  12. soyouresayingtheresachance
    Proves my point even more, I suppose.
  13. soyouresayingtheresachance
    It would've been selling low, absolutely. Hes had 3 pretty terrible years since hes done anything. Playing 1B generally comes with a pretty big bat. Im just not sure he can consistently provide that.
  14. soyouresayingtheresachance
    I was hoping he'd be traded at the deadline. He is such a streaky player. Can he maintain this production? Can he hit enough to play 1B? I have my doubts. But I hope he proves me wrong.

    Jax was and is far and away my favorite trade to bring in Taj. Jax had a bad attitude and wanted out. Glad hes gone. Meanwhile Taj is here and doing well. Grade A+ Most hated trade was Varland. Still is and its only gotten worse. Controllable through 2030, how many more games would we have won with him in our BP all season? Didn't like Roden then and like him less now. Rojas is intriguing, but I'd much rather have Varland. Grade: F The Duran trade was also bad. Another example of how many more games would we have won with him in our pen? Getting an A ball Catcher made little sense when we needed a C much sooner than he would be available. Mick has potential, but outside of a couple starts right before he was injured, hes been ineffective in the MLB for both us and the Phillies. Grade: D- Bader for 2 prospects was a good get for an expiring contract. Mendez is looking decent and has potential. Grade: A Paddack and Dobnak for Enriquez. At the time, it looked fine. Getting anything for Paddack and someone taking on Dobnaks contract seemed good. Man has Dobnack made that trade look awful now. Grade C Carlos Correa for nothing and paying 30M for him to play for Houston. He was a cancer here and well worth the trade off. Grade: A Willi Castro for Gallagher and Armstrong. Again, getting 2 arms for an expiring contract is decent. Gallagher has performed well his last 4 starts and is possibly figuring it out at AAA. The overall numbers aren't good, though. Turned nothing into 2 arms. Grade: A Danny for a lottery ticket. Grade A

    Rough night for Ober. Getting any sort of hit from Roden would've been great. He still looks completely lost at the plate. Yes hes young. Less than 200 ABs, I get all that. Swap him out for ERod or Jenkins and see what happens. Hopefully the bats are awake tomorrow...
  17. soyouresayingtheresachance
    As much as I want to see Jenkins at Target Field, and I really do, I think seeing ERod against major league pitching is a must in his last option year. Sure would be nice if they could find room for both of them.
  18. soyouresayingtheresachance
    I just commented on an article last night about this. I'd like to see Adams swapped out for Anderson. Adams has done well at times but is so inconsistent, its hard to trust him with even low leverage spots. We dont know what we have with Anderson, but he performed better than Adams in the time we saw him. Release Rogers. Call up the Lefty Rojas to take his place. Rogers has been hittable all year and hes not a part of the future. Rojas can handle long relief, mop up duty, low leverage, spot starts. Much more versatile BP guy. Everyone else in the BP I like. Even Funderburk in low leverage situations is getting it done this year. A final comment...it sure does hurt to see all these guys we had either on the roster or in spring training in previous seasons excelling on other teams. Like paying SO much for Hoffman when we already had him 😭. Trevor McGill closing in Milwaukee. Brent Headrick in NY. And others.

    😂 You got me there! 😂

    With ERod finally back, give him a little time to get up to speed in AAA, then it would be nice to see him at Target Field. He's in his last option year. Gotta let him get his feet wet and see some MLB pitching. Is Houston going to be moving up to take Culpeppers spot in St Paul?
  21. soyouresayingtheresachance
    Very nice start from Kremer. Martin with the 🔥 bat tonight. Wow. Havent seen that in a long time. Won't happen, but I'd like to see Adams sent back down and replaced with Anderson. He been too inconsistent. While we dont know how good Anderson is, he performed much better than Adams. Also Rogers can get released and bring Rojas back up. Rogers isn't part of the future and has also been quite inconsistent. Give more ML experience to someone that will still be here next season.
  22. soyouresayingtheresachance
    No. Just no. That would've been such a massive overpay.
  23. soyouresayingtheresachance
    Some great, close games against the Brewers. That was some fun and frustrating baseball. We were so close to taking the series. We are right there. Still making way too many mistakes. Royals just seem to have our number this year. Its unreal how much better they play against us compared to the rest of the league. Its a shame that almost every bat has gone cold at the same time here.
  24. soyouresayingtheresachance
    Hope he heals up well. Good luck.
  25. soyouresayingtheresachance
    Culpepper's 1st ML hit is a Home Run! Incredible! Need to get this defense cleaned up. Its a daily problem.
