I really wished the Twins would have not jumped right away and signed Cron. They would have been better served signing either Justin Bour or Matt Adams instead of Cron.

 

At least that way they could have had a lefty/righty combo with Tyler Austin. Now we are stuck with 2 righthanded 1st basemen/DH and they still seem linked to Nelson Cruz.

 

By the way, Bour signed for almost half the money they paid for Cron.

Target Field is made for right handed bats. Also, the new shifts are worse for lefties since the fist baseman still has to play honest for righties. I’ll pass on a lefty 1B, if someone wants to stick a lefty in that spot make Kepler do it.

 

And I’m not too fond of Cron or Austin. I hope there are better option for their spots soon. Just not interested in Bour not Adams.
