Ownership is doing a lot of positive things, and pushing things in the right direction, which I appreciate. I also don’t trust them. It’s like when my kids clean their room without me asking. It always feels a little suspicious. -

Sounds like it’s more of a health and not playing 9 innings thing (coming back from injury) over a matchup thing. I'd want him facing as many lefties as possible as well.

I could see Altavilla in the Twins pen by the end of April. Seems like he has the stuff. I was surprised he didn’t make it right away. St. Paul will be a fun team to keep an eye on with all the prospects on the doorstep.

Bats are doing ok today

If Martin keeps up the OBP, he wouldn’t be a bad option. If not, you can put him at 8 or 9 so when he does get on base, his speed is a threat for Keaschall or Buxton at the top of the order. Maybe gets them better pitches to hit.

Spring Training Usage Tracker: Roles Begin to Crystallize
Yoke replied to Nick Nelson's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
I would assume if Caratini does anything other than catch, he’s at 1B over DH. That way if something happens to Jeffers, he’s able to slide into catch without losing the DH spot. Maybe that’s wishful thinking because I don’t want him to DH, too. -
Lee with a bunt single (beat it out by a lot), then Arcia with the bomb. Glad Lee showed a little speed there, maybe the offseason training is paying off.

Twins Daily 2026 Top Prospects: #7 Gabriel Gonzalez, OF
Yoke replied to Sam Caulder's topic in Twins Minor League Talk
I’m not trying to say don’t have him improve (maybe I’m not writing it well), but let him stay in his lane with what he’s best at as well. Tweaks to hit more line drives are always good. Tweaks to make someone pull the ball more or hit more home runs can be iffy. -
Twins Daily 2026 Top Prospects: #7 Gabriel Gonzalez, OF
Yoke replied to Sam Caulder's topic in Twins Minor League Talk
I think the problem teams run into with prospects is “he’s really good at this thing, but let’s tweak it a little bit”. The guy is good at getting on base with his current swing. Maybe he can just be a guy that hits 15 homers and gets on base a lot. Let the players be what they are and excel at. -
Twins Daily 2026 Top 20 Prospects: #9 Marek Houston, SS
Yoke replied to Adam Friedman's topic in Twins Minor League Talk
If he’s great at fielding, I would definitely take “fine” at the plate. Not for every position, but at SS. -
I don’t think it’s the move for 2026, but I do think it’s the move for 2027.

How Kaelen Culpepper Can Keep Forcing the Issue in 2026
Yoke replied to Cody Christie's topic in Twins Minor League Talk
If he can get off to a hot start and get called up, that moves Lee to more of a utility spot, and I think upgrades the overall lineup. Lee seems solid at other spots, but a bit out of place at SS. If he’s there once a week to give Culpepper a day off, and at 2B and 3B the other days, it’ll be good for the Twins. -
I definitely prefer the aggressive base running they’re doing now compared to standing around on the base paths and hoping someone hits a homer soon. If I have to watch bad baseball, let’s sprinkle a little excitement in there.
