    It was Gray at third that made the error today. Bringing up Arcia does very little to help the team. Bring up Culpepper if you are going to make a change.
  2. HarmonK03
    I have seen plenty of posts saying to put Gray at short as well.
  3. HarmonK03
    That's the guy everyone wants to replace Lee.
  4. HarmonK03
    Like I said earlier why is Martin not in the lineup every day, it is ridiculous.
  5. HarmonK03
    It helps that Hunter is giving him that outside pitch and they keep refusing to challenge it.
  6. HarmonK03
    Are any of their hitters ever going to challenge that outside corner. It's great for Bailey, but that is the pitch they should be challenging.
  7. HarmonK03
    Another great game from our all star first baseman. It is time to bring up replacements from St. Paul if you aren't going to invest in real major league players. Let them learn and figure out what you have.
  8. HarmonK03
    I hope you are right but we have to bring up another outfielder to replace him. You can not have both Kriedler and Gray up here at the same time long term.
  9. HarmonK03
    Or the Twins philosophy of playing journeyman over players with better upside. There is no defending Outman being on this roster, he looked bad last year and he may be even worse this year if possible,.
  10. HarmonK03
    The defensive specialist gives up an extra base on that hit. Someone please explain the value Outman brings to this team.
  11. HarmonK03
    His glove is not that special to make up for his lack of offense. I would prefer we get 13 players up here that can play rather than worrying about a specialist. Especially one who is not that strong in his specialty.
  12. HarmonK03
    Or the same analytic nerds in the front office.
  13. HarmonK03
    Why, there are two or three better options that should be called up first.
  14. HarmonK03
    I have no confidence they would do that. That would be my preference.
  15. HarmonK03
    You want Outman in RF every day?
  16. HarmonK03
    And yet they refuse to play him against RH pitching. He has earned the right to play every day at least until someone better beats him out but right now that player is not on the 26 man roster.
  17. HarmonK03
    Now Wallner has been scratched and Outman is in the lineup. What does Martin have to do to get more playing time. This obsession with platoon is over the top, I get it for some players, but it appears this is the main criteria for playing decisions.
  18. HarmonK03
    Can we please be done with forcing Clemens into the lineup, he should be the 13th man on the bench not a regular at 1B.
  19. HarmonK03
    I don't want Tom Pholad making roster decisions unless he is being asked to add payroll. I want him to hire someone competent to run the baseball operations and knows how to construct a roster. We didn't have this with Falvey and I have my doubts about Zoll but am willing to give him some time to see if he will operate better.
  20. HarmonK03
    Royce is back, HR in his first at bat.
  21. HarmonK03
    Let's give some love to Keaschall.
  22. HarmonK03
    Decide where Keaschall is going to play and let him play there, you have to let him try and master a position. Any plan where Kriedler and Gray get regular AB's is a poor plan. Go with the upside of youth, meaning Culpepper if you want to move off Lee at SS. I think you need to give Lee more time, he has actually started to hit, he has had one bad game and you say he is reverting back to weak contact. There were no real good consistent AB's from anyone in the lineup last night. So the whole team should be criticized, picking out one or two players for the game, you have nine to choose from.
  23. HarmonK03
    Yeah he has all of 60 games in the majors and they moved him around in the minors. So of course he is a finished product. Give him time and keep him there and let him improve. This moving everybody around and then being surprised they don't have immediate success when they come up should not be a surprise. Players can work at it and get better but you have to give them time. So quit with the talk of having him play in the outfield and let him get his reps at 2B.
  24. HarmonK03
    If the choice is either Kreidler or Outman, sure I would take Kreidler. But let's improve the overall roster and bring up ERod or Roden. A good manager can find AB's for everyone, just stop worrying about platoons and trying to force Clemens in the lineup. They already gave up on 1B defense this year by signing Bell, you need to play him there to improve the rest of the lineup by moving players in and out. There is no reason between Wallner, Larnach, Martin and the new callup can't play four to five times a week by freeing up the DH spot. For the record, I say bring up ERod and see what he can do.
  25. HarmonK03
    I get all the comments about Wallner, I am getting frustrated with him as well and I have been a fan of his. But I don't think we will be facing 50% LH pitching the rest of the year, that just doesn't hold up over a full year. So to make roster decisions based on this stretch is just not the smart thing to do. I still think Wallner could do ok against LH pitching but not when that is all he is facing. Any LH hitter we would have put out there during this stretch, their numbers would be down as well. Maybe they need to mix in Larnach more to be the token LH bat in these lineups.
