  1. An OPS of .499 in May when he started half the games and his defense has been barely average. I am not sure words need to be eaten.
  2. Let's not the grand slam give you rose colored glasses. He has 6 hits in the last 14 games, I am not sure that earns a roster spot or makes him one of our most productive hitters. Keeping him as the backup SS, fine, but let's not act like he's worthy of a spot over Culpepper.
  3. Probably Arcia, Outman, I would think they would want Kreidler or Outman for CF even though they won't play them there.
  4. But do you want Zoll making this decision, does he have the experience to make the right trade. This is not Tommy P.'s call except for approving dollars or not. Where Tom P. is at fault is not having someone in charge that can make the right moves.
  5. Our home run hitters are in St. Paul, Lewis went deep again.
  6. So they would basically be saying he wouldn't be ready to contribute until 28 when he is almost 26, That would be ridiculous. Other teams are doing it regardless of what may happen next year.
  7. Yet other teams have been calling up their younger players whether on the 40 man or not. They need to put the best team out there and right now that means Culpepper at short. I am not giving any slack to the Twins for this non move, it is starting to be management malfeasance.
  8. I just discovered it is legal to throw out a runner trying to steal, Cardenas just did in St. Paul.
  9. I can give you about 10 candidates that can be removed from the 40 man roster. Gray is not a major league shortstop and obviously they have no faith in Kreidler.
  10. How many more home runs does Culpepper have to hit to get him called up,
  11. Do we have any catchers in the minor league that can function on the defensive side of the ball, At this point I don't care what they do with the bat.
  12. Why do we need more prospects, we either don't develop or play the ones we have now. So let's just load up on some more to sit behind the AAAA types and aging vets. I don't want Zoll anywhere near making this type of decision for this organization. We need someone leading baseball operations who knows what they are doing.
  13. They could send Bell packing and it wouldn't hurt my feelings.
  14. Paredes is a bulk guy and if he pitches it will just be a glorified bullpen game. They have stopped developing starters in AAA, they are all bulk guys. So welcome to the new reality of the Twins.
  15. Is the front office using a dart board or do they just wake in the morning and make some random move. I thought if anything they would pick up a starter that can give some length. There have been 10,000 in various outlets about how they are short on starters and have no one to fill in for Ober. So pick up another aging vet who has no upside at all to pitch in relief.
  16. There is a reason Caratini has primarily been a back up catcher his whole career. It was not a good use of resources to sign him when those dollars could have been used more efficiently, but this was a typical Falvey move. And it will only get worse next year if they try to go into the season with him as the primary catcher.
  17. It was nice to see Gray come thru but it does not lessen the need for Culpepper. This would make Gray the utility infielder which is a role he is more suited for.
  18. Get Clemens out of CF, he is out of his depth.
  19. Ryan bailed out his defense, Clemens and Gray owe him a steak dinner.
  20. You keep playing players out of position, it has a ripple effect on the rest of the defense. But that's right any body can play anywhere,
  21. I am sure glad we have Gray as our starting SS, too bad we don't have any other options.
