    Kidding, right? This organization is not inspiring, it's exhausting. There's a moral in there somewhere, like penny-pinching billionaire bankers don't have championship sports teams. In The Ryme of the Ancient Mariner, the rotting albatross that hung around the captain's neck symbolized his perpetual guilt, his disconnection from what was natural and good. The Pohlad family has a unique opportunity: Sell your albatross. Go back to banking; leave the boys of summer alone. You'll feel better, I promise. We all will.

    Ever seen a video from that YouTube channel, Tread Athletics? Why not hire one of their coaches? Better still, hire them all and buy their facility for use by the Twins organization.

    Dean Kremer has earned a spot on this team's rotation. Bailey Ober has faded, along with his fastball. Three good foundational rookies emerged late. Emma, Pep, and Cap. Cap is of course Walter Jenkins, a mild-mannered youth who is discovering his true identity as Captain America. Somebody get that man a painted wok! Another odd year of baseball in Minnesota. See if this organization can generate some excitement next spring.

    Emma's got some of that Kirby Pucket joy in him. His swing is unusual. He brings it down-plane, but then lifts at the finish. That may indicate a lot of balls that clear the fence. Or, it might portend a lot of balls chopped into the ground. So far, he seems to be driving it more than pounding it. Meanwhile, he's also a good outfielder, with a 60 arm. Put Emma in Left, beside Jenkins in Center, and you've got two young, skilled outfielders with 60 arms, and solid bats.

    Kendry Rojas has a beautiful pitching motion. He looks like he could become a silky smooth starter.

    Connor Prielipp ends his season with a little gem. Showed what got him here - a sweeping lefty curve that dies below bats. Kaelin Culpepper will be a starter for many years. Walker Jenkins looks like a young man that is just realizing that he is Captain America. Emmanual Rodriguez has been solid at the plate and in the field. Strong arm. 2027 Twins will be strong up the middle.

    Twins need to shut down Luke Keaschall today, so he can have surgery on his shoulder. He can't throw a baseball overhand right now. We all know what that is. Get it fixed this month, be ready to throw a baseball around spring training. He's too good a player to have a wet noodle arm.

    Congratulations to E Rod. Hope he bangs a hit in his first game!

    Keashall needs to work his ass off learning to optimize his play in Right Field. His arm may never get much better, but the clumsy plays on bank shots off the wall have got to stop. Jenkins...well, shoot. He's the future in Center, so just keep playing him. E-Rod should be brought up immediately. What team needs a great young outfielder more than the Twins? This Twins team isn't ready to make a serious run, but they are on the verge of opening a new window. If an when they fall out of contention, then it's time to trade Buck, Larnach and Jeffers. Let them go join serious teams. Meanwhile, it is time, once again, to see what the new kids have to offer.

    Spot on analysis. Brooks Lee was a step slow at short, but fits almost perfectly at the hot corner. He's a smart ballplayer, positions himself well, and almost always makes the right play. That's the profile of a solid MLB fielder. Frankly, now that he has found a position, I would not be surprised to see Lee start rounding out his game at the plate, too. Hard to say what will happen after Houston arrives, sometime in 2027. Lee is a good fit, right where he is. You don't change that unless you really need to.

    Anybody know the last time Jeffers threw out a guy stealing 2nd?
  32. jimbo92107
    Nance now is being very sure not to throw another football spin.

    The hope here is that Detroit's RP's are as bad as ours.
