  1. Kyle Tucker is the comp for Walker Jenkins.
  2. I still think Max Kepler is a good projection. Good RF defense, hits .230 with a bunch of strikeouts.
  3. FIP of 3.98, ERA of 5.55. He’s been screwed over by the lousy Twins defense.
  4. Ross is optionable AAA depth on the 40-man but off the 26-man roster. I would give him Tristan Gray’s roster spot but not Kreidler’s.
  5. They are so focused on depth that they’re wasting some player’s careers in AAA.
  6. Are they keeping Jenkins down as leverage to negotiate a pre-debut extension?
  7. There will be more money to spend. Both the MLB and player proposals increase revenue sharing. The Twins are a revenue sharing recipient.
  8. Only if they also add a second baseman. Bell as a DH is a luxury. A second baseman is a necessity.
  9. Nobody in MLB is hitting .324. The best MLB batting average this season is .321. It's very gracious of you to "make allowances" for someone who wins the batting title. FWIW - Keaschall's .274 average is ranked #34 in all of MLB.
  10. Odds are only one or two of those catchers turns into a big league catcher, and they need two of them to turn into big leaguers. I agree that they need pitching, but everyone always needs pitching. They have plenty of outfielders. They need up-the-middle infield prospects much more. That depth chart is one person deep - Marek Houston.
  11. There are several other guys with solid athletic ability in the system who are performing a lot better than Young but aren't on the list.
  12. Assuming a full 162 game season, they have 648 games between OF and DH. I am assuming Larnach, Bell and Wallner will not return. Keaschall 140G, Jenkins 100G, Buxton 90G, Rodriguez 90G, Martin 80G, Roden 80G. That leaves 68 games for Clemens, Gonzalez, Fedko, Mendez, Kendle, etc.
  13. At some point you need to recalibrate your internal value metrics to better reflect market value.
  14. They would be better off if some of their lefty bats could play 2B or 1B. They're all corner outfielders.
  15. You left out Kody Clemens, Matt Wallner, Caden Kendle, Kyler Fedko, and Ricardo Olivar on the depth chart. They are loaded with outfielders. The Twins should be trading old and expensive for young and cheap, or at least allocating their free agent spending on areas of need rather than areas with a dozen options. Please, don't spend $17M to bring back Bell and Larnach while leaving a hole in the infield.
  16.
