  1. Ben 1:52 The Twins continue to bench or pinch hit Alex Kirilloff against LH ... He's never had poor splits and has probably been the best bat on the roster all year. Kyle Garlick doesnt deserve ABs over him due to splits. Any idea what they are doing ??? Keith Law 1:52 It's disappointing - he's old enough now to just let him play every day.
  2. Weird, I'm told over and over that you should take a hitter that early, yet, there is the data! I got no opinion on the guys listed here...

  4. Would love an update on Martin.... There are some guys really playing well right now.
  5. I won't be. The question is, will I have one on the way home from golf league, and one at home, or just league?
  6. Despite what some here say, there is luck in the game....
  7. Duran vs the top of the order makes sense.
  8. I know minor leaguer for minor leaguer trades are rare, but I'd be up for some of these going for younger, high ceiling, types.
  9. Just no idea what they trade for if everyone is pretty healthy.....OF or RP, but I hope none of the names we are mentioning go for a rental RP.....
  10. Surprisingly bad so far. Not sure what's up there.
  11. Well, then I was misinformed! But the point remains, they are taking it easy on him .... and that directive is likely from the FO. That said, I'd not handle it that way.
  12. OTOH, Taylor has been a league average hitter, and played great D and run the bases well. That move has turned out quite nicely for this team.
  13. I really don't get why Kepler is on this roster still. Sigh (I'm hoping for a reverse jinx, which I probably just jinxed).
  14. He hasn't played a day game after a night game all year, so, no, this isn't about Rocco.
  15. Ya, I'd take him if I was Oak or KC for sure. Likely Detroit also. So, I'd be shocked if he's left unprotected if he hits at all this year.
  16. Hard to see anyone keeping ERod on their MLB roster all year next year, but stranger things have happened I guess.
  17. Enlow is in AAA, and two injuries from being a starter in MN, he's not being left unprotected. The money means nothing on him or Severino, they left both unprotected this year, but both have been healthy and taken steps forward. I'll give you Keirsey. Carnargo is young and might be a catcher. You don't let that walk. The main point? They have a lot of guys that will be taking up 40 man spots, and that doesn't include signing any FA next off season, which they might do.
  18. He has a full no trade clause. Who is trading for him if he's "not good" as you say?
  19. Big fan, but I'd trade him at the deadline. It might not work out great this year, but I have no doubt they can fill the position next year. I'd just put Julien there and hope there aren't a lot of opportunities for him ..... Unless you want to put Lewis or Farmer (late innings for sure with the lead) there and put Farmer or Miranda at 3B (Lee isn't ready). There is no guarantee that any of the options (Lewis, Lee, Martin, Julien, Severino......et. al.) will work, but, IMO, it is better to move on too soon, than too late. If they can get a top prospect for him, plus a flyer? I do that all day long and roll the dice that one of those guys is a good 2B next year.
