    Eeessh. Between now and the end of the season, multiple series against the same teams. Another series with Indians, then 2 each with White Sox, Detroit and KC. THANKS MLB! Well at least we get to see the Mets and Seattle...

    According to this, Hughes will be ready by Spring Training: http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2016/06/phil-hughes-shoulder-surgery-twins.html I haven't seen a more recent update. He also had a compression fracture on his left leg prior to that.

    A couple things on Dozier batting leadoff: 1. He says he likes hitting there. 2. There's been a shift away from the "traditional" batting lineup. First was a shift of the team's power hitter to the #3 position. Never heard a reason why, but getting that guy to the plate one more time per game works for me. If Dozier likes hitting there, and remains successful, then it makes even more sense to move further way from that traditional batting order and move a couple OBP guy's to the 8-9 spots.

    I would keep Santana. If you're all in on a rebuild ( shhhh, the rebuild has already started ) then you need a veteran presence to help guide the younger players. Ervin is already filling that role for the pitchers. I think Dozier is filling that role for position players. Aren't there 2 other veteran pitchers coming back next year? Hughes and somebody I can't think of now. If there are 3 veterans on the pitching staff, I'm OK with that. Room for Berrios and Duffy (or someone else). The offense is doing OK. More walks, better OPS, OBP and fewer K's would make the offense pretty special.

    So basically, if Twins pitchers didn't allow so many hits, the Twins fielders would play better defense, correct?

    don't you mean FTFY ??

    Seriously, who could have predicted the incredibly lousy start of this season?? It was like Spring Training never happened..

    And yet he's still only 10 HR's away from 30. 2nd year, scouting reports completed. I'm not surprised by the decline, but thought he'd still have a BA closer to .260 and have an OPS closer to last season. The hammy injury on legs that big really slowed him down. His offensive stats between 3rd and RF are pretty compatible. Sano was a good trooper on the RF move. I give him big credit for that. And there was mention of "entitlement issues" [ Molitor's words, not mine ] that got Sano benched, briefly. I'm still a "buy" on Sano's future. And cowardly enough to stay out of the stats-guessing business :-)

    About Schafer: if Buxton only _________________________ Fill in the blank, again.
  16. HitInAPinch
    At 29 yrs. old, I'd say Logan Schafer's time playing baseball is close to being over. This could be his last moments in the sun. Why not give him this brief opportunity until the end of the AAA season? It's not like those players are going to see an enormous amount of AB's anyway.
