    What level is Hajjar this season?
  2. DJL44
    Their two best outfielders are listed as infielders
  3. DJL44
    I think Kepler in CF and Gordon in LF. Everybody be glad it wasn't Buxton.
  4. DJL44
    The Twins have plenty of cash.

    Chris Archer makes spring debut with Twins (mlb.com)

    If they want Upton they will get him for the league minimum.
  7. DJL44
    Justin Upton hit .225/.355/.483 vs lefties last year
  8. DJL44
    Using playing time to showcase players for trade is for non-contenders.
  9. DJL44
    I think the only question with Rooker is whether he goes on the injured list or gets optioned.

    RH hitting Outfielders in other orgs without a spot Lewis Brinson Michael Hermosillo Aristides Aquino
  11. DJL44
    Gary Sanchez can still hit lefties but we don't want a DH with a .686 OPS against RHP.
  12. DJL44
    As a positive example there's Carl Pavano. Also, as a negative example there's Carl Pavano.

    Miranda would be my starting first baseman. His bat is ready and his glove is LOT better than Sano's.
  14. DJL44
    For me this is a no-brainer. Play Sano at DH every day and play someone who can actually field at first base. Arraez is certainly a better first baseman than Sano. Look at the Fangraphs projections. Miguel Sanó - Stats - Batting | FanGraphs Baseball Sano is projected at -10 to -20 (!!!) runs at first base for 2022. Any mediocre first baseman is 1 to 2 wins better. That's huge, especially when you're trying to piece together a pitching rotation with a lot of question marks. Moving Sir Clanks-a-Lot to full time DH makes him MORE valuable - you can't say that for anyone else on the roster.
  15. DJL44
    That's Miguel Sano. A bat who can't play defense worth a damn. Replacing Sano at 1B with ANYONE ELSE (Arraez, Urshela, Kirilloff, Sanchez, etc) is like adding a gold glover to the defense. What's the point of having a platinum glove shortstop with Sir Clanks-A-Lot playing first base?
  16. DJL44
    I agree but I'm willing to wait until May to make that move. Austin Martin could be an All-Star in LF. He's not a SS.
  17. DJL44
    I guarantee at least 2 pitchers will be on the injured list by the end of April
  18. DJL44
    Gary Sanchez is better at playing catcher than Sano is at playing first base.
  19. DJL44
    Every time Sano butchers a play at 1B, so probably every other game.
  20. DJL44
    If Sano isn't the everyday DH there's going to be a lot of yelling at the radio in my house. The baseline for 1B defense (and left field) just went up with the introduction of the DH in the National League. The AAA depth players weren't there because they can't field, it was because they couldn't hit well enough to DH.
  21. DJL44
    An average draft for a team yields two major leaguers and one of those two isn't anything special.
  22. DJL44
    Duran is more suited to relieve but he's not a lefty. They're not going to find one better than Max Kepler
  23. DJL44
    Griffin Jax is on the bubble. He's already been demoted to the bullpen.
  24. DJL44
    Has Vallimont looked any better this spring? He was bad in Double-A last year.
  25. DJL44
    I'd rather play Sanchez at 1B than Sano. Sano might be the worst first baseman on the team.
