I would prefer Kepler stay up, and play CF for a month, to see what he has. But, maybe they are now gunshy, and don't want to "rush" him.......who knows, it is pretty hard to figure out the plan.

Forbes: Berrios can save Twins season
Mike Sixel replied to Seth Stohs's topic in Minnesota Twins Talk
Except he wasn't talking about all aspects of managing, he was specifically talking about the in game aspects........since we can't really judge MOST of the rest, right? -
I am predicting that, yes.....something radical is coming in terms of how we work. Maybe way shorter hours? Maybe less people working? Maybe something else. But, the trend looks pretty bad for workers in modern societies. "knowledge" workers were supposed to be safe, but already we are seeing accountants and lawyers being disintermediated by technology. It's only a matter of time until it gets to others. I don't see any path where people are doing much of the food producing, unless we go all organic.....and even then, I'm not sure. The only reason the predictions of famine aren't true is that we've science to produce more and more food with less land and less people.

all Prince music tonight, so ti can't happen tonight....
-
That's cool. Still a zero percent chance I buy a ticket.....but they are working hard for that extra dollar.
-
From where we sit, it appears there is no plan. Just a bunch of hope.

Game Thread: Twins v Indidans, 4/25 @ 7:10pm CT
Mike Sixel replied to Riverbrian's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
So, about that bench........maybe Ryan doesn't feel they need a bench, since Molly doesn't PH for the catcher ever? -
You have more confidence in Molitor's restraint in playing DanSan than I do.....
-
I am in love with that last line.....and yes, I think it means an actual MLB team is going with pretty much no bench at all.....none.
-
Fair, but I think you know I was referring to the bottleneck.......which would be real if Buxton and Rosario and Arcia were hitting.
-
Preach it!
-
Except Murphy is not an OF........he's an old former corner OF. But, I get your point. I don't agree with the plans at all right now, this is all because they didn't have a plan for what to do if they won Park....none of this is an issue if Sano is at 3B or DH.
-
Kepler never should have been up here, if they weren't going to use him, imo. Just not a fan of this "plan" at all.
-
As much as I don't believe in DanSan......I'd rather he was the 4th OF. How many OF do they need, if they have Esco/Nunez/DanSan?
-
You know, that's a pretty common name, so if you leave off the number......
-
thanks Seth. I agree with all of that.
-
I'd rather see Arcia and Sano and Rosario every day, wins be damned. Arcia has a small chance to be really good......
-
We should all get our comments in fast, before the inevitable article comes up, and this thread is closed.......
-
A rebuilding team, already out of the playoffs in all likelihood, is about to call up a 34 yo "OF" that isn't all that good? Cool. Makes moving out of state much easier.
-
Ah, I didn't know he was that hurt. My bad.
-
that's fair. I admit, I am having a hard time giving this FO any benefit of the doubt right now. Duffey, imo, is a RP long term, if they need a RP, he should be the guy.
-
He has not been rushed. He was the number 1 prospect in the game last year. He has not progressed. But, compared to others, he has not been rushed.
-
Wait, he finally gets right as a starter, and they put him in the bullpen? If the plan was to have him in the bullpen, why didn't he, I don't know, pitch out of the bullpen? He or Berrios has the most UPSIDE of any SP in the organization.......ugh.
