  1. Sano does for sure. Morrison can sit just because he has done nothing.
  2. Send a message to the slugs of the lineup if you are going to do anything. I would tell Morrison to get his **** together, or here is a bus ticket. Sano needs some bench time as well. I hate to break it to him, but until he learns to hit breaking pitches, that is all he will see. He rarely even makes contact with them right now. Buxton coming back will help the defense for sure. At the plate though, he hasn't been good yet this year and it's possible he will make the lineup even worse. Him coming back and producing at the plate would really help this team. As far as the pitching goes? It can't get worse right? Bullpen needs some help. Not sure where it will come from but I can tell you Zack Duke needs to sit for awhile, he likes to give up homeruns. Also curious as to what is going on with Hildenberger, seems like team had trouble picking him up last year???
  3. What is the huge facination with Gordon? Slap hitting, decent at best OB guy who's glove is said to be fringy at short? He's trade bait all day if I am running this organization. Bring him up here and let him fail, now you are looking at a guy who was thought of as a top prospect now being worth little. Leave him down until the trade deadline, then package him up and get us the best reliever and starter out there to help them go on a run.
  4. He's your starting shortstop. Getting into WAR this and WAR that is foolish in this situation. The kid has/had an opportunity to lock down this position for the next few years at least. Besides catcher, THE most important position on the diamond. The Twins are not as good without him as they are with him. That's the bottom line IMO. Heck, he carried this team for a stretch with his bat last year also, remember?
  5. That article is sad. I kinda wish the Twins would at least offer a 3-4 year deal to the guy. I'm of the thought that Gordon is at best a utility guy. He'd be here by now if he were any good. Slap hitter, set for the bottom of the order vs. a guy you can slot in anywhere in the top 4 spots of your lineup. I get the fact that there are some options in our organization, but Dozier is still in his prime. Unless he is truly looking for the 4-6 year deal, I think the Twins should at least be exploring options with him.
  6. This signing is fine if it's paired with another high end guy or trade for a high end guy in the next 2 years. If not, it's just another dumpster dive. I appreciate the FO thinking outside of the box, but at one time or another, I would just like to have a stud gift wrapped and placed under the Christmas tree. Not one that has to be fixed the minute you open it.
  7. This is a meh type move for me. As usual, the Twins dabble in the mid-ranges of Free Agency. My opinion is that if you aren't going to sign true impact FAs, then fill in within your system. I'm of the belief that one stud = 3 marginal types. Not sure why the Twins have never tried this approach. Buy the best available player out there in your position of need, then fill in the other holes from within your organization. A guy like Rodney likely just gets in the way of someone younger than he and costs games in the process. Not sure if anyone remembers the guy, but he is a walk machine and can and will implode at a moments notice. Not impressed. Do we think they are saving money for that big name starter? Possibly, but the track record of the Pohlad's says hell no.
