Byrdman

Sign and extend him. He is our starting 3B. There is virtually no one else. Miranda can play 3B when he Urshela needs a day off. Absolute no brainer here.

Cant win many games when you have a sub par closer, your starting 3 OF's and 3 backups are injured. Call up your explosive #1 prospect and he gets injured. Lose your #1 catcher, along with every pitcher hit the IL at least once. Your team will never mesh with this many injuries and players moving back and forth. We need a better conditioning/injury prevention group. We also had some bad luck on how some of these injuries took place. Just a rough year of injuries to recover from is all.

He has been great. He has thrown a lot of innings for us this year. He is just tired. As he has not thrown this many innings before. He will continue to get better each season as long as he can adjust. If we get knocked out the playoffs after this Guardians series this weekend. I would look to put him on a pitch limit or even skip a start for him to rest.

There is only one X factor for this team. That is the Bullpen. We need 4 arms and we need it now or we will not even make it to the playoffs. I have been screaming this for two months now. The rest of the team is fine. It is the bullpen. They are/will be the reason we do not make it to the playoffs.

Jose Godoy will just come up again if one is hurt. He will only play once every 3rd day or just the day games. We don't really have a lot in the minors but we can certainly find someone this off season or through a trade. If we make it to the playoffs, we really only need one catcher anyway with the off days.

Try and use him in a trade for a pitcher. He is done on this team. I don't want him to come back up to strike out 4 times a night. Like i always say for Sano, he swings so hard that he will never be consistent. Slow it down and simply do not swing at anything low and outside or high fastballs. But Sano can never learn or adapt and will just swing out of his shoes and continue to swing and miss at the same two located pitches every single time.

They are catchers, they are playing pretty much at league level in the AL. There are only two that are sticking out higher, Kirk and Heim than most. We will never have another Joe Mauer. Jeffers and Sanchez are perfectly fine. Garver had one good year at the plate. Catchers are catchers they have never been great hitters. We do not have a catcher problem.

We need to be a million percent in for pitching. Pitching pitching and more pitching. I want us to get so many arms that we have to start playing them in the field. We can replace the whole bullpen except for Duran. That is how serious the Twins management should be right now. I don't understand why they have not made a trade yet. But if we must get a bat and only if the team says just take him for a bag of baseballs. Then I would like to get Josh Bell. But if we need to use the bag of baseballs for a pitcher then pass for pitching.

No no no no, We need 3-4 Bullpen arms. Cruz is done and would be a complete waste of a trade. Cruz is terrible in clutch situations and we don't need his leadership. This is Buxton's team and we don't need anyone to come in and mess with that. We need arms period! I cant be the only one that gets tired of seeing "we should trade for Cruz" every single week. Move on from the old man and watch the awesome young guys mash. I am really enjoying the young guys play. It is so exciting to see them get better every week.

Baltimore Orioles - Lopez, Tate, Perez Give them Steer and Enlow for the all three. If it is not enough throw in Yennifer Cano.

They should have made a trade last night after the loss. Lets be aggressive and improve this bullpen. If we don't do anything sooner than later we wont even make it to the playoffs.

Only trade rumors I want to see is Bullpen Arms. If we don't get 3-4 reliable bullpen arms we wont even make the playoffs. Cruz is done and absolutely no need for this team right now.

I rather we just trade for about 4 effective bullpen arms. We don't need a 1B or a Catcher. We need Pitching with a big ol PERIOD.

Weather and inflation People can barely afford food and gas now and days. We cut out going to Twins games simply because our spending on essentials has gone up due to inflation. We are paying almost 300$ more per month on food and gas alone. That was our monthly spending on fun.

Love to see the Twins trade for Josh Bell for 1b.

I don't care if you hit 90 HRs a year. If they are sifted this much. Bunt that ball and get on base. Eventually they will adjust the shift on the batter. I only helps the batter in every way possible. More people on base equals more possible runs scored. I love a good bunt for a base hit,

Wonder if we can trade Sano to Washington straight up for Josh Bell. Maybe we throw in Thorpe in to make it a done deal. I will be so happy when Sano is gone for someone that is consistent.

Gordon will be the starting SS this year, for a month-month and half, then it will be Lewis time for the foreseeable future at SS. This guy is good and he will hold SS for a while. I am so excited for him to finally play here in Minnesota.

I am willing to bet it will be Gordon at SS at the start of the year. Unless we pull a trade off for a cheap decent SS.

Batter cannot completely leave the box unless the ball is replaced. Or simply put a 15sec pitch clock that starts once the pitcher gets the ball back in his glove. 25 seconds if the ball was replaced so they can re apply resin. Batters and pitchers must follow. If it is the pitchers fault that the time passed a ball is added. If it is the batters fault it is a strike. I hate watching every single pitch the batter steps out to revelcro everything, spit 4 times, adjust the cup, kick the dirt 3 times and step one foot in adjust the helmet spit 3 more times then fully come in. That takes a good 30-40 seconds i cant stand it.

With the news on ESPN http://espn.go.com/los-angeles/mlb/story/_/id/7935993/los-angeles-angels-fire-hitting-coach-mickey-hatcher about the firing of there hitting couch for the angels. I wonder if TR will follow with the firing of Anderson and Vavra. Anderson just destroys any confident the starters have and tries to change them way to much. Every single pitcher just looks terrible after there first year. I just really want him gone before he destroys Diamond and Walters. Also with the 2nd year in a row of making our hitters look like idiots at the plate i would hope Vavra goes at the same time. So our players can play like they did before they got to the majors. Everyone looks great until those two idiots get a hold of our players it seems. I am ranting a bit but i am just super frusterated right now. So TL DR with the angels firing there hitting coach do you think TR will follow and get rid of Anderson and Vavra? Maybe it will scare Gardy a bit to start thinking more clearly.
