    I am not sure what you base this statement on. First he has only been gone for two games and they are 1-1. Also he didn't look like he was sulking in the dugout, he always seemed to have a smile and seemed to be happy for his teammates. Now if there was something going on outside the cameras, none of us knows but we haven't heard anything. Piling on Lewis like this is getting a little old. Yes his performance has been very poor, but do we have to just make stuff up.

    Culpepper is at 3B again tonight, second game in a row. So they want him to refine his defense at SS but yet play him at another position. It appears they are trying to develop another utility player, you can never have enough of them.
  3. HarmonK03
    Because we don't have a closer.
  4. HarmonK03
    I am not the one who brought up of number of games.
  5. HarmonK03
    So what is the magic number of games that they need to play in AAA.
  6. HarmonK03
    No, Rocco would pull Ryan here.
  7. HarmonK03
    But they also have said they want him to refine his defense at short. So why keep moving him around again. This is why I want a new front office that can set a more clear and winning strategy.
  8. HarmonK03
    And they were the only two options during the offseason?
  9. HarmonK03
    Zoll is the one that says he is here for his leadership, not me. Just because he has seen big league hitting doesn't mean he can hit it.
  10. HarmonK03
    I know he has to say something, but he is starting to sound like Falvey. And it is really hard to believe anything he says.
  11. HarmonK03
    How many leaders do you need, this is not a young team.
  12. HarmonK03
    We have Caratini for next year, that was the vision of the great leader by the name of Derek Falvey.
  13. HarmonK03
    He has only been hitting for the past week. This is who Clemens is, he will have a hot streak, but then you have to live with his flyouts and strikeouts which is happens a lot when he is not going well. He will not have trade value even for a bag of balls.
  14. HarmonK03
    On May 9th, he had a batting average of .184 and OPS of .637. One six game hitting streak has raised that. And now we are saying he deserves to be an every day player. I don't mind riding the hot hand. but Clemens is a bench player who should play 3 or 4 days a week. Because of the roster construction he is being deployed as the regular first baseman. Bell was actually signed to be the regular first baseman. This just means Clemens has a pretty low bar to clear to look like a regular. There is a reason he hasn't been an every day player in his career. I don't really mind him on the roster but we are not going to win with him as an every day player. At some point I want this organization to either develop quality players or bring them in. And stop dumpster diving on the waiver wire claim heap.
  15. HarmonK03
    They need to let him just work on his hitting. If they want him to change positions wait until the offseason. Let's not overload him in St. Paul and let him stay focused.
  16. HarmonK03
    I would trust baseball people too, just not the ones this organization employs starting with Zoll. This is still Falvey's people and they haven't had spectacular success over the last 6 years. Giving AB's to all these AAAA and past their prime vets is not helping the team contend this year and it is not helping set up them for future success. We will be having the same discussions next year at this time as our record will be around or below .500 if they continue down the path they have chosen.
  17. HarmonK03
    Wait so we don't know what we have for next year, At some point you have to push past 75 wins which will be a stretch this year and try to improve the team for the future. Culpepper learning what it takes to be successful in the major leagues this year helps more to improve the team next year than waiting for him to debut next year does.
  18. HarmonK03
    He would have to be added to the 40 man roster and I doubt they will add somebody for just a few days.
  19. HarmonK03
    He will have no trade value unless he hits .400 or better. He was signed to a minor league deal, a couple of months of moderate success is not going to turn him into a valued trade chip. Let's not make this move into more than it is.
  20. HarmonK03
    It will have to be Mendez or Gonzalez, as I doubt they will add anyone to the 40 man roster. But it won't matter because I doubt either one will get a chance to play.
  21. HarmonK03
    It was talked about on MLB yesterday that teams are bringing up their top prospects earlier because they feel they will develop better in the majors because of the lack of pitching in AAA. So are the Twins the outliers and if so why. As an organization they have not shown based on results on the field that they are head and shoulders above other organizations. Maybe they need to start trying to copy what others are doing and not always thinking they have the answers. Also if they want him to refine his defense at short, then play him there every game, don't move him around at all. Show a sense of urgency to get him ready. He is the top prospect in St. Paul, he should be the priority at short.
  22. HarmonK03
    But he has options, so we need that flexibility so we don't lose guys like Garcia, Banda or even Topa before today.
  23. HarmonK03
    Keaschall should have hit here.
  24. HarmonK03
    Someone might want to let Zoll in on this little secret in relation to Culpepper.
  25. HarmonK03
    Let him work on his hitting right now, that is enough to put on his plate. There is no replacement for him at 3B if he comes back. Let's wait until somebody displaces him from 3B before there is talk about moving people around. I mean Culpepper may not even be up here until 2028 because you have to make sure he is ready and that probably won't happen until he is at least 25 or 26 years old.
