    I agree and I need to ask why Houston was playing second base today?

    Who are you referring to? Who has the .736 OPS in AA?

    I know trading Jeffers will help the team in the future...but the future is now. Jeffers needs to stay for this pennant run 2026. He deserves to stay with his buddies and the Twins will benefit by keeping him. What if the 1987 Twins had traded Hrbek in July 1987 in order to benefit the team in 1988 and 1989? Do you think the 1987 Twins would have won the 1987 World Series? Winning teams don't trade key players toward the end of the season, just to build up the future. Losers do that. Quoting Bluto and Otter: "In this case I think we have to go all out. I think this situation really requires an absolutely futile and stupid gesture be done on somebody's part. We're just the guys to do it. "Bluto: "LET'S DO IT !"

    He has a great name. What would be a good walkup song for a reliever with the first name of "Steele" (not "steal"). Devo's "Gates of Steel" or Hank Williams' "Man of Steel"?

    Jenkins, K. Culpepper, Houston, Lackey, Tait, Rodriguez, Hill, Quick, Mendez and Soto are my top ten Twins' prospects in this order. Who are your choices?
  8. tarheeltwinsfan
    Wonderful draft choice. I am so glad to get a catching prospect with a huge upside. I am looking forward to watching Lackey progress through the system to the major leagues. With Tait and Diaw also progressing, and one more year of Caratini, the Twins have some strength at the catching position. I wonder where Lackey will be ranked among all ML prospects and especially among the prospective catchers?

    I felt like I was at the game with 4 old friends, enjoying a beer and a hot dog. I don't think Molitor would add to this mix because these players would defer to him as "the expert". It was the most fun I have had watching a Twins game on my laptop., except one time on tv Scott Ericson pitched a no-hitter and I can't go into details of why it was so much fun. You'll just have to imagine what went on at my house during that game.

    DAMN !

    2 walks by Orze are inexcusable, but oh so predictable. Awful.
  12. tarheeltwinsfan
    Maybe Zoll took the promotion to GM for the money and /or to keep his family in Minnesota.
  13. tarheeltwinsfan
    Outman should change his position to pitcher, based on his name.
  14. tarheeltwinsfan
    Lawyerson
  15. tarheeltwinsfan
    I agree with everything except Jeffers will not bring a bullpen guy. Any team that wants 2 months of Jeffers must be competing for the playoffs, and therefore will not trade any bullpen pitcher, since the team is competing for the playoffs.

    What are the stats that measure Vic's stopping the opponent's' running game? What do these stats show?
  17. tarheeltwinsfan
    In 27 innings at AAA in 2026, he has allowed zero home runs, has a 29% strikeout rate and a 2.60 ERA. This compares to the Twins relievers' strikeout rate of 19.9% and combined ERA of 5.28 and walk rate of 11%, both among the worst in major league baseball this year. And this acquisition did not cost any young players, just some of the Pohlads' money.
  18. tarheeltwinsfan
    What are decent numbers for a pitcher without high strikeouts and low walk rates? That is what pitching is all about.
  19. tarheeltwinsfan
    No.
  20. tarheeltwinsfan
    Affected.
  21. tarheeltwinsfan
    You are mistaken in your assessment of Jenkins. Time will prove you wrong. Jenkins will prove you wrong. We will just have to agree to disagree on this issue.
  22. tarheeltwinsfan
    Looks like a good acquisition to me.
  23. tarheeltwinsfan
    What is Ricky Castro's status? Is he still on the IL? What was/is his injury? Thank you.
  24. tarheeltwinsfan
    His impressive 2026 minor league numbers ( mostly at AAA) tell me enough. I look forward to seeing him pitch in relief for the Twins immediately. Send Lawyerson down.
  25. tarheeltwinsfan
    Last year many of you predicted that the Twins strong pitching staff would far outweigh the offense for the 2026 season. Am I the only one who predicted that the Twins would lead the American League in runs at midseason, but have the third highest ERA in the AL at midseason? Thank you very much. (Please note that the forgoing claims were clearly lies about how great a prognosticator I am, but then that seems to be the norm for our country these days.)
