    I haven’t watched every inning of every game, but based on my observation, any metric that suggests Miranda is a better fielder than Urshela currently, should be discarded immediately.
  2. yeahyabetcha
    Enjoy the season!! However it turns out, I am finding them entertaining to watch this season.
  3. yeahyabetcha
    Weird how things work out. A few short months ago there were many opinions demanding Miranda to be playing in the majors and some suggesting Lewis was a wash out. Now, many are ready to give up on Miranda and believe Lewis is a sure bet.
  4. yeahyabetcha
    If the Twins are contenders this year and they are currently in first place. I think a strong argument could be made for a starting infield of Krilliloff, Polanco, Correa, Urshela and use Arraez, Miranda and Gordon as the reserves. Lewis would be in St Paul.

    I would send him back to The Saints to play SS full time, with the goal of him being the 2023 opening day starter for the Twins.

    I think the bullpen has the potential to be very good, even without Rogers. The only real question is (and it is a rather big one), who can get the last outs of the game.
  7. yeahyabetcha
    Or it could mean that they wanted to trade Rogers because he was in the last year of his contract and they probably were not going to resign him. And that they felt that Garver was going to have to get moved from catcher to stay healthy. And they were able to get pieces in return that they liked.

    I think it would be great to see Kirilloff at first and Larnach in left against right handed starters. I am just not sure the Twins will start the season that way.
  9. yeahyabetcha
    Your 10 first mentioned, are locks. If they start with 13 position players, that leaves 3 spots. My prediction would be Gordon, Godoy and some right handed outfielder. I don’t think Larnach makes the opening day roster, even if he has a good spring training.
  10. yeahyabetcha
    They likely see a lefty opening day, so I would leave Arraez and Kepler on the bench. DH is Sanchez, Rooker in right field?
  11. yeahyabetcha
    I wouldn’t make that trade, but I consider Kiriloff pretty much untouchable.
  12. yeahyabetcha
    We’re the Twins “tanking” when they traded Cruz for two prospects?
  13. yeahyabetcha
    I never said to keep everyone. Obviously the defense will be a major rebuild. I just believe it isn’t necessary to rid the roster of every player of any talent and replacing them with a draft pick.
  14. yeahyabetcha
    The Jaguars have won 5,6,1 and 3 the last 4 years. Yep, that would be great!! Skol!!
  15. yeahyabetcha
    Yep . Trade any players with any talent. The Vikings can be the Jaguars of the north!! Skol!!
  16. yeahyabetcha
    I suspect it will take more money to sign the three than you propose. But if the two pitchers can be signed for close to that, go for it, they need someone to provide some innings Pass on Story, I would rather resign Simmons.
  17. yeahyabetcha
    It is based on nothing but a hunch, but with the expected O’Connell hiring, I think there is a better than a 50 % chance (not really going out on much of limb there) that the offense stays mostly intact, thru extending and restructuring contracts . The defense is where there will be the changes this offseason.
  18. yeahyabetcha
    Weren’t the Cowboys the 3 seed?? Not that it really matters….
  19. yeahyabetcha
    What is your definition of a “lower tier playoff team”. Looks like two 4 seeds made it this year.
  20. yeahyabetcha
    I don’t know enough about Pickett or of any of the potential upcoming draft candidates. I do know starting rookie Qb’s seldom bring a playoff team, especially when the roster is gutted also. But having said that, if the new regime identifies a draft pick or finds a draft partner that brings in a new Qb that they are very high on, they should do it. But I would not like to see Cousins “cut” or whatever, without a valid replacement plan in place. I am also open to extending Kirk to reduce his cap hit, if the new regime believes in him.
  21. yeahyabetcha
    Thankfully, I don’t think there is a GM or head coach candidate in existence that would think cutting Kirk, eating his $45 cap hit and starting Mond next year would be a good idea.
  22. yeahyabetcha
    Are you advocating just cutting Theilen, Smith and Cousins and taking the cap hits that would entail?
  23. yeahyabetcha
    The defense will need a rebuild. Everson, Sheldon, Barr, Vigil, PP, Breeland, Woods are either gone or could be gone . That is a big chunk of minutes played to have to replace. Add to that the Hunter contract situation that will need to be addressed and a new defensive coordinator, and yes it will look different. But even with all that the i prefer the Vikings going into the offseason that the attitude that they will in playoff contention next year.
  24. yeahyabetcha
    I think I agree with you. If Kirillof handles it, he gets the most time at first base. Dh can be shared by Sano, Donaldson, Arraez and Garver depending on health and production.
  25. yeahyabetcha
    Are you saying the roster should be “torn down”? As a season ticket holder, I would not like to see something like that happen. Also, if the GM can not work with a coach with a strong personality (which seems to be most of them) he should not have been hired.
