  1. Since Lewis doesn't do slumps, I have to believe this is permanent.
  2. Just listing my personal favorites...I admit Blyleven and Kaat are in the Hall of Fame and Santana could have been with a couple of more years of good numbers. However when I was a kid, Pascual and Ramos and Roy Sievers and Jim Lemon were the stars of some very weak Senators' teams.
  3. I am sorry I can't make it to what sounds like a wonderful time with other Twins' fans. I live in North Carolina. But I will be there in spirit. Go Twins.
  4. Very good point Indiana. I should have included Ryan and Lopez, who are two of my all time favorite Senators/Twins' pitchers, along with Pedro Ramos and Camilo Pascual
  5. Good points Jeff. I would prefer Keaschall at 2B or 1B, rather than the OF. Unfortunately I neglected to mention Keaschall in my post about Lee. My error. In 2027 an infield of Culpepper at 3B, Houston at SS, Keaschall at 2b and switch hitting Lee as a super utility player, with possibly Wallner at 1B would be nice. OF of Emma, Jenkins and Buck could be good. Gonzalez will need to play somewhere, possibly alternate DH with Buck. Tait would advance quickly and be the starting catcher at age 21. Add Dasan Hill, Quick, Ellwanger, Soto, Abel, Mathews and Prielipp and some bullpen flamethrowers and the Twins will do well for several years. That's my wish when I blow out my birthday candles. Plus world peace.
  6. How would Lee be playing 2B, with Houston at SS and Culpepper at 3B? Or should Lee be a super infield utility guy? Or 1st base? He won't remain at SS when Culpepper and Houston are ready for the bigs.
  7. Tait gave me a baseball after I told him nice catch on a wild Dasan Hill pitch at one of the back fields where the pitchers throw in a line to various catchers.. Watching and listening at this location early in the morning is my favorite spring training pastime. .
  8. Emma's power may be rated the highest of any Twins prospect. But not his hit tool. He strikes out too much and chases pitches out of the strike zone. Emma will be a good major league player soon due to his impressive power and fielding skills.
  9. But Houston's fielding is a thing of beauty at the key position. He knows what he has to do He is smart. I bet he will improve his hitting this year.
  10. Not yet, but he is only 19. He will be an amazing player for the Twins soon. He has a nice, fan friendly attitude. I discovered that at spring training this year when we had a conversation and he gave me a baseball that he and Dasan Hill had been throwing.
  11. I was glad I could scoop up that wild throw of yours to first base and save you an error.
  12. What do I know. Outman hit 2 homers today...4 for the spring training season. Plus he can run like a scalded cat.
  13. Keaschall did nothing to impress me on defense at spring training. But his hitting and base running certainly did. I wonder if he should get a first baseman's glove and start practicing scooping up low throws from Lewis and Lee?
  14. Sorry I missed seeing you at spring training. I agree that Abel was incredibly intriguing. I want to see Houston at SS for the Twins, sooner rather than later. He is a joy to watch fielding that key position. I am also interested to see how Ober does. So far, he has struggled. And Dasan Hill and Edwardo Tait are the real deals.
  15. I hope "Garcia" is on a very short leash. I don't know who he is.
  16. Nice use of my new word for the day, "COPIUM". I had to look it up.
  17. How long of a leash does Ober have? He allowed 10 hits today against Boston in 4 innings.
  18. Seth, I'm sorry but I don't know who you are referring to in your post. When Seth speaks, I listen.
