    They are an overall better offensive team minus the 2 flashy guys. More depth in the offensive attack. Makes life easier for the pitchers to go with a nice lead early.

    Kirilloff 4-4/2 doubles/R. 21 doubles in FTM. had 20 in CR, in 17 more games Hitting .378 Machine

    On Cue to this article Kirilloff doubled in the second (#20 at FTM) and Rortvedt singled him in. Miranda walked in between, as did Costello

    milb.com article on the stat leaders. Kirilloff in same stratosphere of names with Vlad, Jr Currently leads all full-season minor leaguers in hits and XBH https://www.milb.com/milb/news/toolshed-prospects-jockeying-for-stats-leads/c-290310514

    Mejia went back to the cities, now feeling pain around the bicep. If he's effective, may be longer.

    Good comeback. Still young, but was staggering. Hopeful the success of recent times continues. At least Angel Hernandez won't be behind the plate for an inconsistent zone.

    Fact: Odorizzi threw 101 pitches in 4.2 innings tonight. Zero Strikeouts Fact: Odorizzi has completed more than five innings in only 1/3 of his starts. Peripherals? Who cares? The guy is a bullpen killer every time out.

    I can also see us keeping Grossman as he does have a league average bat and high OBP. Or high enough for a bench bat. Only as a bench bat/DH. His OF is so brutal. I just don't know if the Twins will have room for that. They always carry too many pitchers.
  13. Mr. Ed
    What about Odorizzi's spot on the roster? I know he's under control, but has been underwhelming almost all season. Can barely get 5 innings done. Part of me believes there is a disconnect. Lynn has pitched well for NYY. I wouldn't be surprised if Odorizzi did elsewhere too.

    Still hard to believe Thorpe is only 22. Like he skipped aging a couple years rehabbing the arm. Gonsalves turned 24 last month. 2 really good lefties upcoming. Romero will be 24 this winter, Berrios is 24, Mejia is only 25. He is getting more consistent, with the lowering of his pitch count. 5 starters right there, plus the others. I cannot see Erv returning.

    I don't think there are that many "tough" 40-man decisions. Yes, you have to add some players, but there is plenty to gain by subtraction. Johnny Field Matt Belisle Robbie Grossman Willians Astudillo Zach Granite Tyler Duffey Plus Morrison Forsythe among those gone next year.

    Rooker MN has Austin whom I expect will get a call up. Rooker would give them the opportunity to see him at first and the OF, like Austin, and DH as well. Both of them could take Morrison/Mauer's spots in 2019. And why not? I know, Joe is MN and all that. But IF the Twins want to move forward, 2 RH sluggers to up the power ante would be helpful. Look at the Oakland lineup last night. Featured 6 or 7 guys with double figure HRs. That's how the game is played more and more. Knock it out of the park. Morrison had a blip season last year, Joe is Joe, and should just let it go.
