    Nope. Brooks Lee

    The Devil Wears Parada. Take him if he’s there.

    I was at that game today. What a nasty thing to watch? Hopefully, it gave the front office a kick in the pants to make a few additions and a few subtractions.
  4. strumdatjag
    I agree. I think Kepler and Polanco are likely to be moved to make way for younger (cheaper) and maybe better people at their positions (Arraez, Larnach, Celestino, Steer …).

    Huh? Gene Larkin was part of the 87-91 Core Four? He was a bench player. Sorry Gene but Dan Gladden is the other Core Fourman from those years. Alex Kirilloff looks like a likely Fourman.
  6. strumdatjag
    Well at least you can’t say the Twins are boring.
  7. strumdatjag
    Remember, Kenta Maeda and Dobber are going to be ready maybe even later this month.

    It’s easy. after his rehab starts at AAA, evaluate Sanyo’s performance. If he is hitting well and cutting his strike-outs just a little, Sano can be a big help on the bench and as a DH. If he is lousy, or even mediocre, cut ties.

    In the MLB Top 100 Prospects St Louis also has #33 prospect Matthew Liberatore (LHP, currently at AAA) and #99 Mason Wynn (SS with a great arm who akdo has the ability to be a pitcher - he is currently at AA). Jordan Walker is #24.

    This might be a way to determine if there is “dirty laundry”. How many Twins pitchers are being quoted lamenting the departure of Wes Johnson? Chris Archer had a nice comment for him in today’s Strib. But it doesn’t seem like the organization is in intense grief over this. But it’s early.
  11. strumdatjag
    The point being - I don’t really miss anyone from this bunch.
  12. strumdatjag
    Andrelton Simmons could have helped the Twins when they were short handed in Toronto.
  13. strumdatjag
    Somehow my post didn’t get posted (TD sometimes censors posts about people who wear masks, so maybe that’s it). So I will try again Sanchez should play much more than Jeffers. Then with our high draft pick, try to draft Kevin Parada or Daniel Susac, both are college catchers predicted by sone pundits to go in the first round.

    And then there was Duffey’s performance in what was a close Twins-Yankees game (pre-Duffey) …
  15. strumdatjag
    Apparently, a Doctor must document an actual injury before a player can be put on the IL. So here are two ways to get that accomplished - Put Duffy in Centerfield at Target Field for a game. He’ll be on the IL before the game is over, based on the history of Twins Center Fielders. Or maybe get one of the No-Vax Four to be Tyler Duffy’s roommate on the road.

    In order to beef up their relief corps (at least two are needed). The Twins are going to need to make some decisions about their surplus of talent in the infield (except 1st base) and the outfield. Shedding some of that surplus and adding some prospects should help to shore up the the relief staff.

    There is virtually zero scientific support for one being masked outside on a windy day not seated near anyone else. There is a line between over-cautious and simple virtue-signaling (or possibly paranoia - which isn’t healthy).
  18. strumdatjag
    For those privately making predictions (I’m sure many of us were): Pagan was the only one I got right out if the five. Jim Souhan’s column said there was a starting pitcher among the five. Kepler is the son of ballet dancers from Germany - that doesn’t seem to be in the anti-vax demographic. Megill and Thielbar were not on my radar.
  19. strumdatjag
    So - Does that mean TD will pay me for my take on the couple wearing masks outside on a windy day at Target Field with nobody near them? Pretty good material for mocking hysteria.
  20. strumdatjag
    TD - Start paying this guy for his posts.
  21. strumdatjag
    Then pay me. My sarcastic response was just as “funny” as the overpaid guy. Can I write a paid entry about the masked couple sitting outside at Target Field with nobody near them? They could easily be mocked based on the science.

    I’m so glad that the moderators here are not getting political about COVID - Following the examples of fairness and balance set by Facebook, Twitter, Google etc. Keep up the good work. By the way, despite my oozing sarcasm, I have been very pro-vaccine here and indeed wish more efforts had been made to approve reformulations faster to keep pace with the evolution of this virus.

    Jake Cave is in the midst of an eleven game hitting streak. Yesterday, he hit the walk-off single that drove in the winning run for the Saints. Just sayin’!!!!
  24. strumdatjag
    Possibly Smeltzer??? He proved his worth and was sent down last week. He promptly returned and proved worthy again. Put away the pencil and use the Sharpie to put him in the rotation, at least ling relief.

    3 Other factors: 1. Crime in Minneapolis, especially downtown. 2. Inflation fears. 3. Wild and Wolves in playoffs, competing for sports fans’ dollars (although that doesn’t explain the recent poor attendance).
