  1. Where does Arraez play if not DH? If first, you are benching Kiriloff?
  2. Who is your SS next year? Because you don't keep CC and sign two big time players, probably not even one. Why do we think the other teams won't be better next year, but the twins will? If a team that is on pace for ninety wins isn't going to try to win, why will next year's team?
  3. Wowsers. The dude is on pace to play 126 games, if he had been up all year, and people think he's not playing enough.... Arraez should be the DH and Kiriloff the first baseman. That leaves third base on a regular basis. I don't love Gio, but I'm not sure if Miranda is any better or not. I am not sure I understand the certainty of so many here that Miranda would be better. This is a playoff caliber team, and people want to insert an unknown at third full time?
  4. People begging the team to cut Duffey are mad they didn't use Duffey last night? This loss sucks. But I'm baffled at the logic of many people.
  5. It's been red three times in a row, gotta be black this time, according to the odds......
  6. The last two "rebuttals" have absolutely nothing but snide to rely on. Zero date. Zero analysis. Nothing at all. Just a belief with no basis for that at all.
  7. Badoo is in the minors, and not coming back soon unless something changes. He was in A ball, and the Twins were coming off a playoff season where they needed to be protecting guys VERY LIKELY to help in the next year or two. I'm baffled at the takes on him, given the context of what the Twins needed, and the likelihood anyone would keep him in the majors all year given his history.
  8. If I'm dealing for a catcher, it is a package with the A's to get Montas......and one of their catchers. But I'm not ready to give up on Jeffers like some are.
  9. Plus, they literally started the year with AK in the lineup. Then put him back in right away the first time he came back from injury. The evidence is clear it isn't about service time.
  10. It is clearly their plan. A plan which seems to be keeping him healthy and effective. I hope at some point he and Winder can piggyback.....as Winder won't be pitching a HUGE amount of innings this year.
  11. Zero "stat geeks" have said BA doesn't matter. Sigh. Arraez has been amazing this year (and last). It really is special what he's doing right now.
  12. Stop with the reasonable take! This is a message board for goodness sake.
  13. Based on what evidence? And they aren't buying Miranda's service time? Why is every move evil or wrong? Maybe, just maybe, they have a plan that is about the team continuing to have the division lead?
  14. Untouchable? I think he has a chance to be very good, but why untouchable? Unless you aren't trading any good prospects?
  15. Soto will be DFA very quickly. You aren't doing that with Kiriloff. Maybe we wait to see if Ryan and Grey are healthy, them go down a pitcher. Or maybe the front office and manager that are on pace to win the division three of fory years are what you all keep saying.
  16. Must be in the duplicate thread, or I'm not reading them right. But that's how I read them.
  17. 500 at bats and people want to throw him to the curb. Unreal.
  18. "he's terrible, we should trade him for a really good RP"...... Look, Sands is like 8th or so on the depth chart. Unfortunately, teams need that once in awhile. He's made how many starts now, and people think that he should be traded? He's not good enough to be a regular starter, and likely won't ever be. That doesn't mean he doesn't have value to a team like the Twins. He might be better as a RP....and I'd consider making him one.
  19. Who are the 5 pitchers better than Montas next year (or this)? He's better (and healthier) than any Twins pitcher. By the logic of the last sentence, you never trade for anyone at the deadline, I guess? Oakland also has two catchers playing better than Jeffers right now....and a RP or two.....if you really want to do a blockbuster.
  20. While it isn't my first choice, it's not like Polanco can't play SS ... if they don't have another option next year. Also, I get this site needs daily content, but I really don't get why we are talking about this in June...
  21. I literally have no idea your point here at all.
  22. They have CC.... This thread is about a backup. What even is this post?
