Oldtimer

Neither Lee or Ober are going anywhere. Ober is going to break into the starting 5 sometime early in the season and become a solid contributer in the rotation.

Agree... History will repeat itself. Even 80 games is a reach for me.

It seems Ober is the odd man out if they go with a five man rotation. Where will he fit in or how will he be used throughout the season.

I remember Mauer and Vargas hitting solo homeruns in the bottom of the ninth...defeating St.Louis 2 to 1 at Target Field. A huge Gatorade and Bubblegum bath at home plate.

Love watching Varland pitch. No nonsense....right back to the rubber and waiting for the sign and next pitch. New rules no effect on his approach. Looking forward to him breaking into the top five sometime soon.

Agree...that's how I see it also. Archer and Bundy were drags on both the rotation and bullpen last year.

If we get the Lopez of 22 and the Galo of 21, we're in for an exciting season..

Anyone of the Julien, Lee, Lewis group are about to break through with equal hitting impact and likwise will become a new "fan favorite". I like the trade. Great addition to our pitching staff.

This all makes a lot of sense. With an abundance of future infield depth, is now a good time to ad one of them along with Kepler for a number one or two pitcher?

With an apparent abundance of middle infield talent now....is it now time to consider a trade to strengthen the pitching staff.?

Oh my!!! A lot of that makes a lot of sense.

Outside of Polanco, there have been so many changes or "tryouts" for the various infield positions these past few years. An apparent cause for our less than effective infield defense.... Give 3rd base to Miranda and let him develop....there is so much talent there.

Well said. Right on.
