    Sure, 2024 matters....but if the OF is Larnach and Celestino and Wallner, it might be worse than this year's OF..... Larnach does not look like part of the future, but he might be. That's the kind of guy you take a chance on acquiring, not building around if you are a serious contender. I understand why Larnach WAS in St. Paul (options and injuries and all), but we are past the time to worry about that. Gallo is just plan not good. If he's on the roster, and Larnach isn't, well, that says plenty, IMO.

    Thin? I don't think that's right at all.

    I don't think Lewis will ever be fully healthy. I've advocated for polanco to play third on his return, and that looks possible. Between those two, third is covered. They need an OFor two... And RP. I'd be happy if prato had come up for Buxton....or Severino....or Lee, who is still playing SS exclusively even though CC is going nowhere.... So, hard pass on this idea that I previously thought might be a good Idea.
  4. Mike Sixel
    Let's hope so.
  5. Mike Sixel
    He was up when polanco got hurt, then sent down when polanco got healthy. Literally blocked due to health. I don't know how that's even debatable.

    Don't hold your breath on promotions.... They've barely promoted anyone to AAA, meaning AA is full.....I don't understand the thinking at all, of keeping AAAA players in St Paul you refuse to promote. Severino and Lee should be in St Paul. Prato with the Twins while Buxton was out, at third. I really am unsure what they're doing. While we watch Atlanta and Milwaukee call up guys from AA.... Over the last couple years
  7. Mike Sixel
    Agreed. Not even close to the same thing. Larnach can't beat out Gallo. He's not a rookie at a super scarce position.
  8. Mike Sixel
    Julien was literally stuck in AAA this year..... So, it just happened.
  9. Mike Sixel
    Almost every starter is a RHP. He's so much better on offense than MAT... And that makes MAT a great defensive sub

    As I posted above, martin is hurt again. His foot this time.
  11. Mike Sixel
    DFA Gallo, trade Larnach for a RP. Put Wallner in left. I hear Kepler lollygagged a flyball today.... But he's not going anywhere.
  12. Mike Sixel
    On the plus side, the offense was good and they signed Jenkins. Then there is the bullpen, and Austin Martin hurt again.
  13. Mike Sixel
    I wish he'd come up instead of Larnach... And that he was playing third. It's hard to see how he fits on a healthy twins roster, with Julien, Lee, Lewis, Castro. Not to mention Martin and Schoebel. And if they keep polanco.
  14. Mike Sixel
    Meaning they don't throw the extra they could spend w/o losing a pick at a HS player, I'd bet. They are one of two teams never to go over their number. Ever.
  15. Mike Sixel
    And, it's done, just barely over slot....no idea what happened with the delay...
  16. Mike Sixel
    Are either of those difference makers? If not, no idea why you'd deal for them. Are they any better than Balazovic?
  17. Mike Sixel
    almost certainly
  18. Mike Sixel
    agreed

    I'm good with adding a guy they think is as good as Jax or better. I have no interest in a lesser arm. I'm actually surprised Ober hasn't been shut down for a bit, and Keuchel promoted. But maybe they've decided Ober can just keep going, like the old days.
  21. Mike Sixel
    A fair critique, but I've posted this thought for decades, and it has nothing to do with this FO.
  22. Mike Sixel
    I'm good with Balazaovic, yes. Not sure on Ortega. No, not wanting Sands in the playoffs, but I could be wrong. I do agree, we might not see Stewart back. I'm fairly confident Thielbar will be though.
  23. Mike Sixel
    It always amazes me people get mad at the player and agent, but give the billionaire owners a pass. Always.
  24. Mike Sixel
    Stewart, Thielbar and? Who goes?
  25. Mike Sixel
    If they pass on him over 700K, well, I've already called for their heads before this.....let's hope they sign him.
