  1. The prospects will have to pitch in front of the same lousy Twins defense as the current bullpen.
  2. No amount of practice will turn Brooks Lee into a good shortstop. He has maxed out his athletic ability.
  3. If Kreidler can hit well enough to be a backup outfielder then why isn’t he playing SS? Use him at the position where his defense will help the team the most.
  4. The ball hit him in the glove. I am blaming him for booting a ball that hit his glove.
  5. I don’t care about the accounting tally. Bell should have caught that ball. Fielders are taught to throw low. A ball that bounces once is easier to field than one that goes over the first baseman’s head.
  6. Should we trust defensive evaluations from the organization that thinks Brooks Lee is an everyday SS and Josh Bell is a first baseman?
  7. Complaining about the same player every day over and over again is just whining. Wallner is a low batting average, high power batter like Joey Gallo. Whining about that isn’t going to change him. In yesterday’s game it was “sure thing future All Star” Luke Keaschall who didn’t come through when the team needed him. If he’s just a rookie we can’t depend on then why is he the #3 batter in the lineup?
  8. Are you referring to the ball in the dirt that almost every first baseman in the league except Bell could scoop?
  9. Keaschall has continued to play subpar defense too. It isn’t just his arm injury.
  10. Why do people want to skip over four outfielders on the AAA depth chart to bring up a mediocrity like Fedko? If Wallner is struggling the obvious first move is to give some of his playing time to Larnach. Alan Roden doesn’t have extreme platoon splits in AAA. Gabriel Gonzalez is a RH bat who can field almost as well as Wallner. Rodriguez has looked ready this spring. Fedko would be who I try after I try all of those other options and possibly the waiver wire as well.
  11. Isn’t Austin Martin the RH outfielder everyone has been asking for?
  12. I don’t think the Twins have ever had a player of that caliber in their 60 year history. I’m sure they would be better if they added an inner circle Hall of Famer but it’s not super helpful advice.
  13. “Outman has been utilized so sparingly that his not yet generating a hit over 15 plate appearances while striking out at a 53.3% rate has been inconsequential. Roden is more deserving of a 26-man roster spot than Outman. Given the minimized role he would have with the major-league club, however, it makes more sense for the optionless Outman to occupy this very minimal role than Roden, particularly this early in the season.“ Why is “guy so bad he doesn’t deserve playing time” a role with a 13 player roster?
  14. My god, tip your bartender $1. Cheapskate Minnesotans. Based on crowd sizes I have seen on television, three stands should service the whole crowd with no issues. People waiting too long is an execution problem that can be fixed.
  15. The Happy Hour is the best promotion they have come up with in years.
  16. Lewis platoons with Gray when he returns?
  17. I would like to see Festa pitch for a week without injuring himself before declaring him likely to do anything. He will need the full minor league rehab to show he is healthy and effective.
  18. I don’t think the Twins need any more help hitting lefties. They’ve beaten the best ones.
  19. Fedko plays both CF and 1B the same way Kody Clemens plays both CF and 1B. Roden would be rightfully pissed if he was passed over for Fedko after being passed over Outman. That’s a Montgomery Burns level of dedication to platooning.
  20. Of course! The 5th best outfielder on the Saints roster is the obvious way to improve the team!
  21. Kreidler wasn’t the opening day SS because he can’t hit a lick. I would prefer they didn’t play Kreidler at all, but if he is going to play they should get the most out of his defense.
