  1. Yeah he hit .264 with a .736 OPS in 425 at bats, you are right he didn't do much for us. To me a super utility guy is someone you move around because you want their bat in the lineup, like I think Clemens would be better in this role. Ben Zobrist was kind of the model. Kreidler is an infielder that can fill in when days off are needed. He is not a center fielder and should only be starting once or twice a week.
  2. But I keep seeing Lewis being singled out and I don't really get it.
  3. He was a super utility guy, you seriously want Kreidler in the lineup everyday. The production between the two is not even comparable.
  4. Bench players do contribute and that is great but that doesn't necessarily they should be in the lineup every day. And you said his defense was below average and he did not hit anywhere near enough to offset that.
  5. It was him or Gray in May they decided were going to be the guys playing the most at shortstop. And Gray was no upgrade over Lee defensively.
  6. They don't use them as utility players, they get overexposed and hurt the team more than help. Which is more on the organization.
  7. No I want him in a utility role where he has a better chance at success, not playing every day. He is not an everyday player and he showed why in July. He should be a late inning replacement, starting once or twice a week.
  8. And he's been hurt too, he looks different and there is talent there as well. I get about wanting to see if he can sustain it the rest of the year. But the team needs this version of Royce to be successful, we all should be cheering and then if he falls off, call it out.
  9. It's been two months so not necessarily small and he is healthy and looks much better at the plate. He has been one of our best hitters for the last two months, at some point that needs to be acknowledged.
  10. The first one was a throw to Lee at third, sorry your guy only gets credit for one.
  11. Prielipp needs to be written in pen for the rotation next year.
  12. Or is it because you are waiting for Royce to fail, I am not sure why you would want a Twins player to fail.
  13. That may be overthinking things a little bit. Mis has nasty stuff, just because Royce swung at strike 3 doesn't mean he is reverting back because of one nasty pitch.
  14. This would have been a good game to throw Jackson into the fire. Why is he even on the roster, he has one pinch running appearance in 10 days, that is just roster mismanagement. Zoll needs to wake up and help the team out.
  15. Caratini's knee must be really badly injured, he is behind the plate today. Time to move Jackson off this roster and quit playing shorthanded especially when we need a CF and there is one in St. Paul.
  16. Correct, Kody and Kreidler are probably that have the ability and are comfortable doing this.
  17. Fine if you want to rearrange the defense, but keep guys at one position, they can't keep switching up game to game or even within a game on an everyday basis.
  18. If you need Kreidler in the lineup so badly, give Clemens a day off. He needs it and should be not be hitting in the #4 hole.
  19. Lewis has been doing this since he came back up two months ago. He is healthy and looks more comfortable at the plate. I get people want to see it until the end of year but the improvement is real and has been happening for more than a couple of weeks. And he's doing while playing at two new positions without a set position. At some point we do need to acknowledge that he has been one of our best hitters.
  20. Already did, that is why I have been on a rant the last few days.
  21. He actually should have been up 2 weeks ago. If you want to make excuses for Zoll, you are free to do so, I am not going to do so. It is legal to bat a LH hitter against LH pitching, just because the analytic nerds don't like it doesn't mean it can't be done.
  22. He needs to play everyday, there is always a reason not to call someone up, There are no excuses to me anymore other than Zoll is incompetent.
