    Professional, but clearly below average and not playoff caliber. Minter is also quite unlikely to return.
  2. DJL44
    Bell exceeded expectations and put up his best season since 2022. It is unlikely he performs any better next year. He’s a below average DH at this point in his career and not worth more than $3M on a free agent contract.
  3. DJL44
    Or any other team. I don’t know why people assume other teams would want players the Twins don’t want. The Rockies traded for Julien and got -1 WAR.
  4. DJL44
    Maybe we will see Roden at 1B with Sabato getting a spot start vs LHP.
  5. DJL44
    Trade for what? The waivers fee?
  6. DJL44
    I wouldn’t cut anyone over $200k. If you want him on the roster it’s silly to let that small of an amount of money to make a difference.
  7. DJL44
    What leverage does Lewis have to demand a trade? I can’t imagine any other club would give him as much playing time as he has received this season with the Twins. Does he want to see the league bouncing around the waiver wire?
  8. DJL44
    Anyone going on the IL can pretty much go on the 60-day at this point. Did he do enough at AAA to earn a 40-man spot this winter? They carried Wagaman last winter, so maybe. Sabato has all 3 options remaining. If they don’t want to carry him all winter and intend to make him a free agent this is still a nice gesture, though I don’t care if he gets any playing time in that scenario.
  9. DJL44
    Keep them both on the 40-man and figure it out next spring.
  10. DJL44
    Is Lewis going on the IL? The only other moves that make sense would be to cut Jeffers or Bell.
  11. DJL44
    He definitely could be worse than Lewis the last 6 weeks.
  12. DJL44
    DeBarge could be the 13th player for the Twins, rarely playing except to pinch run and play defense.
  13. DJL44
    Rojas should get called up. No innings left in St Paul.
  14. DJL44
    Roden was injured from April to June.
  15. DJL44
    Alan Roden knows how to play 1B….
  16. DJL44
    Ober in the bullpen could be a sign of things to come.
  17. DJL44
    A lot easier said than done. Teams aren’t giving away ace pitchers and top closers. Are you trading away Culpepper, Jenkins or Lackey? If not, are you giving Skubal $400M?
  18. DJL44
    I absolutely hate the idea of a team with a win total in the low 70s spending their scarce resources on a reliever who will give them 60 innings. That might get them from the low 70s into the mid 70s but it won’t make them a playoff team.
  19. DJL44
    If he’s the full time first baseman then why do I see Caratini there occasionally with Royce at 2B?
  20. DJL44
    Beyond the stuff and location, I have doubts that Gomez has the temperament to be a successful closer. Every time he makes a mistake he starts yelling into his glove and stomping around. He seems emotionally immature. The season is long and the closer needs a short memory.
  21. DJL44
    He has handled it this season. 77 games at 1B, 38 at 3B, 15 at 2B. That’s a utility infielder.
  22. DJL44
    What he is at this point is a cheap utility infielder. They could use one of those.
  23. DJL44
    I don’t like giving the closer role to pre-arbitration pitchers. Saves get paid in arbitration. Give the saves to Hoffman instead.
  24. DJL44
    He has a FIP of 3.54. With the Twins. This is an example of the overall stats regressing to the peripherals. He’s not a closer.
  25. DJL44
    Would people here be thrilled to watch the Twins finish in last place if someone else owned the team? I doubt it.
