Which Twins Have Regressed the Most?
GeorgiaBaller replied to Ted Schwerzler's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
Sano is a write-off to cut. Why is everyone so patient he will revive to be productive for what, 1/3 of the season? A player that is a 1 tool guy who is only mature enough to be professional for part of the year is called a washout and a drain on the team from a leadership and morale standpoint when he plays. Show some leadership and expectations of professionalism, front office!! Kepler had a great 2019 because he quite trying to pull everything and used the opposite field. He cannot be successful with a power hitter approach. He must open up and take the singles and doubles to the opposite field he is now choked off from. He is a plus right fielder and far too streaky at the plate---but not nearly a full scale disappointment. Why are there no questions about the complete lack of a plan the Twins had for Left Field? Complete joke to walk into a season with one of two retreads to maybe pan out in left---when we have been hearing for years now how deep the farm system is with outfielders.- 21 replies

Twins 2021 Position Analysis: Left Field
GeorgiaBaller replied to Nick Nelson's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
@chpettit19 is on target---Eddie R was not an average bat. He is not an avg replacement. Alex K may end up being great, but we haven't seen a great prospect pan out in quite some time. The road to success is not paved with potential. I do hate to see in the article that "first base is currently taken". When in the world are the TC Ballers going to quit being haunted by the ghost of Big Papi and move on from the failed experiment that is M Sano? He is a liability at first and---lets be real here--does not put the ball in play enough to cater to his bat in the lineup. Please, let's take our past lumps an move on! Polanco and Kepler are streaky enough to alternate killing innings, we don't need a player who might as well take his glove with him when he comes to the plate with two outs!
