    Rojas has given up one run in 11 innings since his demotion with 11K and 2BB.

    This article looks like it was posted two months early

    That still leaves Kreidler as the backup. It would be okay to have three talented up the middle infielders on the roster. That’s not against the rules.
  4. DJL44
    That sounds like a plan for 2028, what about 2027?
  5. DJL44
    The trade deadline is over and there are no saviors in AAA. Most teams have players with below average bats and above average gloves sitting on the bench. Caratini and Roden didn’t even play today so I’m not sure how this loss is their fault.

    Finding a second baseman would be my offseason priority
  7. DJL44
    Nine hits, five for doubles, four walks, one lousy run

    If you buy me a ticket and I can tag along, sure
  9. DJL44
    He’s half of a platoon with Trevor Larnach. He’s a LOT better than Larnach at hitting LHP and better on defense. You have to think of them combined as one Left Fielder.

    And there it is. Rookies - you had better perform like an All-Star in your first five games or the fans will be calling for your demotion. If they were going to give up on Culpepper after 5 games then they made a HUGE mistake adding him to the roster. That’s a fireable offense for a general manager.
  11. DJL44
    Can Jenkins provide a spark on offense? Unlikely. The players who he would replace have OPS+ ranging from 106 (Bell) to 138 (Buxton). That’s a high bar for a rookie to exceed. Carson Benge, for example, wouldn’t really improve the Twins offense. Can he improve the outfield defense? Absolutely. He will be better than Larnach or Keaschall immediately.

    The Twin Cities region has 2 million more people than North and South Dakota combined. Season ticket sales drive attendance. They can’t favor the fan who attends once a year over the experience of season ticket holders. If you are worried about a rainout at Target Field, book your vacation over a three game series and buy tickets the day of the game. It never rains out for three days in a row. Target Field averages between 2 and 3 weather postponements per year. The worst case scenario is you have a chance at a doubleheader.

    Way back in 2023

    Minnesotans will sell out the arena for a bad NHL team but won’t fill the stadium for a good MLB team.
  15. DJL44
    Agree. Player interviews are usually boring as hell. Put them on before or after the game where they belong.
  16. DJL44
    Baseball is the #4 sport in this market after football, hockey and basketball.
  17. DJL44
    It is feeling like another infamous move of an infielder to the outfield: Miguel Sano
  18. DJL44
    Not a fan of watching Schwarber hit bombs? I thought it was interesting seeing the Twins advertising the opportunity to buy a ticket this weekend to watch Schwarber. The marketing message isn’t “Buxton’s back” but instead “Watch Schwarber take our lousy pitchers deep”.
  19. DJL44
    I am surprised they didn’t send Roden down to AAA. If they’re keeping him around, I don’t see how they add Jenkins. If they’re going to call up Jenkins next week, they could have optioned Roden now and waited to see if there was an injury this weekend instead of cutting Jackson.
  20. DJL44
    The Banana ball outfielders catch it mid-backflip.
  21. DJL44
    These all seem optimistic
  22. DJL44
    Nola has made a career out of making good hitters look bad. Possibly a future HoF.
  23. DJL44
    Swapping Larnach and Keaschall with Jenkins and Rodriguez would be a HUGE improvement in the outfield defense.
  24. DJL44
    Someone that athletic should not be as bad as he is on defense. His career is trending towards full time DH.
  25. DJL44
    There were reports at the trade deadline that he already told the team he would turn it down.
