Not one mention of anything defensively. The Twins have a whole mess of DHs already, we need Mendez at 1B learning the position. we need Olivar and Tait getting every opportunity behind the plate to sharper there skills. It’s nice they hit some balls hard the last week but after watching the 26 Twins defense doesn’t slump or have hot and cold weeks. 1 tool players can be tough to watch.

Twins Minor League Report (4/3): Dueling One-Hitters
High heat replied to Seth Stohs's topic in Twins Minor League Talk
What is DeBarge out look? Minor league gold glove at 2B, played some SS and CF last season. Is that the plan moving forward or are they better off having him work on an everyday position. 60SB last season and some developing power, could you have a Brian Dozier like accent? Ps I know Dozier never had that kind of speed. -

Victor Caratini Isn't a Good Fit for the 2026 Minnesota Twins
-
Jeffers will not hold up and be productive at this pace. Even if he is healthy or productive he will get traded at deadline so caratini signing is for coverage and 2027. Our entire current roster doesn’t fit 2026.

Doncon looked good in his ST appearances. Would like to see Diaw or Tait start hot and push themselves into catching at AA. Hill might be a fast mover to AA. If his control is better he might make light work of high A.

Kody Funderburk Might Be the Minnesota Twins' Best Reliever
-
The hope for a competitive team in the first half I think is pretty well gone. The hope for a 63 win team is starting to dwindle. This bullpen is going to be so bad early in the season they will likely be picking off the waiver wire all season. They might find 1 Hoffman but there going to go thru so many others that completely bust.
-
I think both can be in the bullpen, Funderburk has been used a lot against righties. I know it’s not ideal to have 4 lefties but there isn’t a 5th righty who’s better at getting righties out than Funderburk. This bullpen is going to be horrible and will put us in line for 100 loss season. Bullpen building has been terrible and we haven’t even had any injuries to it yet. Yikes!!! Going to see a lot of AAA pitching in the majors.
-
Yes they should be on the phone with ATL right now!!! I would be fine if they got a bag of balls for Larnach at this point. He doesn’t fit on this team and is clogging up the outfield/DH. An actual trade might be for Dave McCabe, 25yr old 3B/1B switch hitter who hit .275 last yr at AAA with some power.

If Outman put up the same # as a right handed hitter he could fit perfectly on this team. back up CF and supplement the COF against left handed pitch and defensive replacement. The problem is he is the worst of the LH hitting outfielder. With 2 capable LH hitting CF prospects in AAA. The guy flat out doesn’t fit on this team, Falvey must have been blind to see that when he made this trade. I would had more respect trading for a bag of balls with how this outfield is currently constructed.

Reviewing the Twins Daily Top-20 Prospects from 2021
High heat replied to Cody Christie's topic in Twins Minor League Talk
I think this team outlook looks significantly different with a healthy Kiriloff. He was such a different hitter when he had bat to ball skills and power projection with a much better athletic profile. if this team had a Carlos Santana style 2017 player at first base we wouldn’t look at the offense or infield defense as so bad. The moral of the story is you can’t just not hit on first round and supplemental picks for 3 years while cutting payroll and expect to be anything other then bottom feeders. Twins had a lot of misses in this prospect class and the few hits where just singles the other way not much for home runs!!- 7 replies

First time seeing Kendry Roja, his secondary stuff ( Change up and Slider) was moving all over and the fastball was sitting 97. He faced a lot of the big league hitter for the Braves and looked really good.

I like the read but I have a tough time believing you know what your talking about when you have Dasan Hill list as RHP and then in the article you refer to him as a big tall righty….. Dasan Hill pitches with his left hand…- 20 replies

Festa more then any other current starter needs to move to the bullpen and should start there early in ST. Shoulder durability is a major concern. Festa looks like if he added a couple MPH to the slider and fastball putting him in the upper 90s could be a better version of Varland because of the secondary stuff. not to mention the Slim Reaper is a sick nickname coming out of the pen. Festa, Bradley to the bullpen with Abel and Mathew’s battling for the 5th spot. Prielipp and Raya in the bullpen either in the majors or at St Paul. I do believe a trade of someone in the current projected rotation is coming before ST.
