    This is the weekend all the wineries in Oregon can be open, even if they don't normally have a tasting room. It is crowded, but worth it. We'll be out one, two, maybe three days.

    When would he ever be more on this roster? I'd rather he play about half the time, giving every OF a rest, or letting one of them DH occasionally. It's not like there is a good DH option? DH whichever of Kepler or Rosario you want to rest, and play Wade at a corner that day. I like that much more than Grossman.

    Dogs would be much more likely to post positive thoughts in game threads, just sayin....
  4. Mike Sixel
    They should know by then who they aren't protecting in the off season. I doubt it is an issue.
  5. Mike Sixel
    That's not how the real world works unless you believe we also know what we have in Buxton now....since his minor league numbers would indicate he'd hit by now.... It's not like FO and managers are always right, either.
  6. Mike Sixel
    People are judging Garver's defense in less than a year of playing at this level..... Plus what they've heard about his defense in the minors. I suggest patience, mostly because he's their best bet for catching for a few years. He should be playing more, now.
  7. Mike Sixel
    Besides age and defense and baserunning?
  8. Mike Sixel
    Someone should ask the MoY..... Because it makes no sense

    Of course, Sano can play defense, which Carter can't, at all. Sano is also much younger. Could he go that way? Sure. Will he? I don't think so.

    I just don't think we see Gordon w/o a Sano set back, or a trade of one of their current players....not until next year is my guess. I wish he was up when Sano went down, but didn't happen. Not with Polanco coming back in a month or two or whatever the timing is. Wade, imo, should have come up when Buxton was out, or even Cave. I don't really think of Granite as a "prospect", but he can play D and run, and he should be on someone's roster as a 4th/5th OF, imo. Between those three, they are set at 4th/5th OF for some time, I think. The handedness doesn't matter a ton to me, but I understand why others would disagree. I think Gonsalves is up at some point this year, when something happens to 2-3 SPs during the year. IF they are worried about Romero's innings, it might make sense to have Stephen come up, and to rest Romero for a few starts. Maybe, not sure. That might be Slegers' role, or Mejia (is he a prospect still, I think you are all forgetting him if he is)? I don't see anyone else that is likely to do much, though I'm sure I'm forgetting a RP, this year....

    I love how you got gold glove winner in there! If you had to predict, who are the SS and 2B next year in MN? I'm going Gordon at SS, and Polanco at 2B.
  13. Mike Sixel
    I know we disagree, and won't change each others' minds on this. So I'll just say, good points, but you are wrong....
  14. Mike Sixel
    Another good start. And the bats got timely hits. Winning is good.
  15. Mike Sixel
    Of course, sliding hand first is how you hurt your hand.. ..I want my players never doing that.
  16. Mike Sixel
    Agreed, but even you wondered why he started in AA this year. I am surprised they are not waiting for July, very encouraged, really.
  17. Mike Sixel
    Nice!
  18. Mike Sixel
    Berrios being really good again is the story here for me. They need it.
  19. Mike Sixel
    It's a young man's game more and more. I hope the Twins embrace that. We don't have much data yet on this front office, but Wade and Gordon in AA.... Versus Romero up.
  20. Mike Sixel
    Good move by the front office. I'm impressed, since so many here said no mid market team would do this, when some were clamoring for it. I wish Phil Hughes all the best. Seems like a good human being.
  21. Mike Sixel
    I agree. I posted as much up thread. We won't see Gordon this year, most likely. Then next year he'll be held down to start the year. My response was trying to explain what the poster meant, since that was the question asked.
  22. Mike Sixel
    It could. But he's not healthy. So I'm not worried about him.
  23. Mike Sixel
    Not fun with numbers post! They are just too easy to pile up right now. Good thing my wife has a concert tonight and I won't watch gameday
  24. Mike Sixel
    Is this on auto fill on your device? If not, you may want to add it. Save time and all.
  25. Mike Sixel
    I don't need to see Grossman anymore. There is no upside on offense, and we know about his defense. Move on.
