Not sure what your asking. My point is the division has been weak past few years so played into hands of a good twins roster
-
Bring him up...
-
Time for a stint in the minors for both him and Jeffers. Embarrassing performance out of the two of them. Start Austidillo back there until they get it figured out.

I will reiterate that Rocco has proven nothing since he has been the manager. Yes he has won two division titles but look at the status of the division. The central has been terrible the last 3 years so there is no excuse twins shouldn't be winning that division. Rocco walked into a clubhouse full of talent and hasn't built upon it or developed anybody. Hire a bench coach....not sure what we are gaining without one. How much was dereck shelton running the team?? May also be a players manager but at some point might have to light a fire under some of these players who aren't performing. stop making excuses for guys that make millions of dollars a year to play ball and look like they aren't even trying. Zero effort or emotions in that clubhouse.

At the time letting Rosario go was the best move. Kirilloff is making solid contact but just not finding the gaps. Twins have a back log of outfielders in the minors so between Kirilloff, Rooker and Larnach I hope they can make something work. Not surprised that a another prospect that comes up cant hit. The twins development in the minors is a joke both hitting and pitching. Starting pitching was not a strong suit last year so what changed for this year. Bullpen was an anchor to the team last year and we let 3-4 guys go.

Nothing to lose bringing him up. Sano isnt hitting and playing first base is one of the easiest positions on the field. Kiriloff needs time and experience and consistent playing time. Consistency is not a word Rocco understands but this is the lift the twins need. Lets start developing players that actually have potential such as Rooker and Kirloff not Jake Cave who is close to 30 and cant hit his weight.
-
Yes they have, in which we barely won last year. With the amount of talent this team has there is no reason they shouldn't be running away with the division and making some loud noise in the playoffs. This team is built to win now, entire team is aging. buxton sano kepler berrios not young anymore so no excuse for not living up to the potential they should be. Something has drastically happened with the hitting the last two years and getting no development out of our pitching throughout minor leagues
-
Rocco should be fired immediately.... hasn't proven to win big games since he has been there. Tired of the lack of consistent lineups and bull pen usage decisions.

Terrible lineup today!!
-
Polanco is a decent hitter but Baldelli needs to see the writing on the wall he is slumping. Sano either needs to bat 8th or 9th or sit him. Cant keep putting him out there in the critical part of the batting lineup. Other thing, why is buxton batting behind cruz which is one of slowest guys on the team. Please stop playing jake cave....hes a triple a player at best 1. Arraez 2. Buxton 3. Cruz 4. Donaldson 5. Kepler 6 Polanco 7 Garver/Jeffers 8 Sano 9 Simmons
-
Twins have plenty of shortstop draft picks, best part about drafting shortstops is they can play anywhere in the infield. When it comes to pitching on the other hand.....ouch, not good at drafting pitchers. Cleveland has magic formula of drafting pitching. Maybe its coaching, idk but twins need help in this area bad
-
Rooker to start the year, while they gain a year of service on Kirilloff. Arraez has very little outfield experience so he will most likely rotate in the infield. Twins have enough outfielders on roster or in the minors, no need to get only infield utility guy hurt. Give rooker the chance and experience this season, next season have a platoon of DH possibilities.
