  1. Emmanuel Rodriguez played his first game in AAA yesterday after returning from the 60 day injured list. It was the minor league Field of Dreams game, which is a career highlight for most of these players. Rodriguez went 0 for 3 with a walk. I guess that walk means he’s 100% ready for a major league promotion and the Twins are idiots to not promote him today.
  2. This is why I think he is the 14th position player when rosters expand. They have to test him in the majors.
  3. They need to find him a spot on a team that is not trying to win in 2027. This is exactly why I thought he was a good player to trade to the Angels for Neto.
  4. Another reason why it was a bad time for Jenkins to debut last week.
  5. If you want him for his defense, it makes a lot more sense to play him in RF. It is a big risk to take one of their top bats out of the lineup to add a rookie. Benching Josh Bell when he has a 950 OPS over the past two weeks is very different than benching Ryan Kreidler when he’s barely hitting .100.
  6. So you want to play Jenkins as often as they play Jackson?
  7. Pretty sure they plan on Kremer filling the New Good Starter role.
  8. Ryan is making $6.2M. You rarely see arbitration salaries triple in one year. $13M is more likely.
  9. I think they should eliminate the DH for this game. Play by 1960 rules. And no pitch clock so fans have time to watch the corn grow.
  10. You think they’re going to spend a million dollars to use the ABS for two games?
  11. Bradley is the ace on this team. Ryan is the #2 guy
  12. They are using him. Having Jackson on the bench lets them use Jeffers as a pinch hitter on his off days. We have had several lineups with both catchers in them. That doesn’t happen without Jackson on the roster.
  13. Martin is the short side platoon partner for Larnach. He plays when Larnach has to face a lefty.
  14. Plus Keaschall in the OF. If the expectation was for Culpepper to immediately contribute in his first 30 plate appearances they should have never promoted him in the first place. Sending players up and down based on small sample size results is stupid and would show a complete lack of ability to assess talent by the front office.
  15. Larnach has an option. Sending him down to start the rookie would be a bold move.
  16. Contract extensions for Lewis and Bradley would be nice. They will need a lefty for the bullpen. They could afford Arraez at second base. The market has several 2B available (Jazz, Gleyber, Lowe).
  17. Do you want to bench Larnach, Keaschall or Bell for Jenkins? Those are three of their best hitters.
  18. Buxton for Roden, no other moves until September unless there is an injury.
