  1. Julien playing 3rd? Am I understanding that correctly? First time that I have ever read that. I’m too lazy to confirm but I don’t believe he ever logged an MLB inning there. If it was sarcasm, well you got me there.
  2. Naw I didn’t think he was outstanding, per se, but as a local fan from the Twin Cities he created slightly more interest in a franchise that has been shedding fans/supporters in recent years.
  3. I’m not offended or upset by the use of the term “pipeline “ but would observe that in the Twins context it seems more like a dented, partially collapsed culvert sometimes.
  4. Fun list, thanks. I’m ok with Radke. Agree he was never “the best” but I always looked forward to his starts.
  5. Count me with those who were blindsided by the Varland trade. It’s likely that I can’t be completely objective given I was born and raised in the east suburbs of St. Paul. But if all things were equal (an argument) wouldn’t you do something, anything, to build good will with your local fan base. Even if we view this as a Proof of Concept, where the organization can reliably churn out players like this, why not keep what appears to be a stable asset? I don’t profess to be all that driven by the economics, I just love the game as a fan. So much has been done by this organization to alienate people like me over the past few years. Here’s to a successful rebuild that I might see in my lifetime.
  6. I want to be a “Lee guy” because of his pedigree but the product on the field has been a mixed bag at best. I don’t like his range and he’s part of dearth of team speed. I’m hoping some other option presents itself in next year or two, and guys like Arcia aren’t really a talking point.
