If the team is evaluating talent moving forward, I would have much rather seen Astudillo sent to AAA as I don't feel he has a future with this team.

With Buxton and Kepler due back and Gordon showing (so far) he can handle MLB pitching, and Garver due back in July, I would for sure entertain offers for Cruz and Simmons. I don't think Sano will draw any interest, but DFAing him should also be considered. The everyday line-up could look something like this: C - Jeffers, 1B - Kirilloff, 2B - Arraez, SS - Polanco, 3B - Donaldson, LF - Larnach, CF - Buxton, RF - Kepler, DH - Garver. Bench players would be Gordon, Astudillo, Refsnyder, and take your pick of Garlick/Rooker/Riddle or whoever may have been acquired in one of the trades.

Donaldson's was supposed to make $18.75M last year, divide that by 2.7 (60 game season) and you get $6.94M. Fangraphs shows his 2020 season to be worth $6.9M. He is to make $21.75M this year, divide that by 2.7 (59 games this year, basically the same as last year) and you get $8.05M. Fangraphs shows his 2021 season to be worth $7.4M so far. Whether people want to admit it or not, he is not grossly underperforming what he is being paid (according to Fangraphs).
Maybe these so-called stat driven people on here are judging him by the old-fashioned eye test, shame on them!!

Baldelli does not seem to have a feel for the game as it is happening. He seems to rely on analytics and "new age" stats too much. Last night was a good example. Maeda got in trouble and threw a lot of pitches early, but was rolling over his last 3 innings, throwing only 39 pitches while striking out 3 and allowing no hits or walks. And BOOM, here's the hook. Bullpen has to get 12 outs in a tie game against the Sox. End result; 9-3 loss. This is a scenario that has played out time and again the last 3 years, but the offense has been good enough to overcome it the previous 2 years. While it is time for the arms to show up, it is also time for Baldelli to learn how to manage.

'87 was a great a series as was '91, which is when Hrbek lifted Gant of off 1B

I did a quick google search and found no results, thank you for taking the time to find and post these!!

#3 and defense, the Royals way, seems the way to go. Make it a 6 inning game and make the plays in the field. Enough offense to have the lead or be close through 6, then go to the 'pen and the defensive specialists.
-
How about just no. The player is property of the team. Right or wrong its the teams choice where their players start each season.
How would Boras feel if all the GM's formed their own panel and decided not to sign his clients?
-
If Santana can get 30-35 infield hits and becomes an adequate bunter, I don't think a .300 batting average is out if the question. The other two should get better as they learn to hit, not just swing, and as their strike zone knowledge improves.
-
Not going to argue with anyone willing to take the time to make a prospect list...good job. I do think there should be a little sense of urgency with Berrios, but only because of his size. The team needs to get him to the show when he's ready or risk having him spend his most productive seasons in the minors.
-
Anybody expecting the team to contend next year should think again. This is only year two the rebuild, the team chose to ignore reality in 2012 and 2013. Injuries to Sano, Buxton, Meyer and May as well as the PED suspension of Rosario haven't helped either.
Either the kids gotta play and the team takes its lumps or another year of plug and play AAAA players and the team takes its lumps and loses more fans at the gate.
What will the Twins brain trust do??
-
Hughes just turned 28, young despite several years MLB experience. Gibson will be 27, Meyers and May will be 25 this off-season. I think Hughes should be kept for the duration of his contract and maybe even extended with what he has shown this season.
Dozier is another story. If the team can get a good return for him, i say trade him. Escobar has shown he can play every day and Santana would then be able to move back to SS, with Escobar at 2B. Plus it seems the team has several IF prospects nearly ready to move up.
-
Where else do you play him? Buxton, Hicks & Arcia are the OF of the future, Sano is the 3B of the future and Mauer's concussion issues won't let him play C anymore.
If the team had given him all off-season to learn 3B it might be a different story, but they thought Sano would be ready to go, so that is what it is. Maybe they deal Willingham and move Arcia to LF and move Mauer to RF, but then Buxton comes up next year and you have to move Mauer again.
I would rather have Mauer, Willingham and Arcia in the line-up everyday over Colabello.
-
I'll take the strikeout over the double play grounder to 2B every time.
-
I think Farrell got more out Toronto than Gibbons is, and Toronto added a pile of "talent."

Just throwing the stats out there, no analysis or deep reaching comments, yet! I may delve deeper into these as the season wears on, but for now I figured I would just post them and let the commentors read into and say what they want about them.
My first thoughts are that even though the offense and starting pitching have room for major improvements, the team is doing quite well and should not give up this season as no one is running away with the division yet. However, if they need to keep relying on the bullpen they will run into major trouble. Willingham, Dozier, Hicks, Parmalee, Plouffe and Doumit have provided almost zero help so far, but Arcia, Escobar and Florimon have been pleasant surprises.
Look at the stats, form your own opinions, state your own comments, etc...
Good luck Twins!
