No. What I'm saying is that Sano, Walker & Bryant are all big, Right-handed sluggers that will likely end up at 1B or RF. Sano & Bryant each have an outside shot at sticking at 3B, but that's up...

I don't have a problem with Parmelee taking over at first, for now. He's got a long way to go to lock the position down though. Bottom line on Morneau is that we can get at least similar production...

I hope the Twins stay away from Bryant. I think we've already got him in Adam Walker and Miguel Sano. Give me a power arm like Manaea or Stewart, or another toolsy OF like Frazier or Meadows. I...

Was Razor Shines the Loons Manager, bitching about the HR/single with the umps after the game, or was there another issue that preceded the walk-off that he was complaining about? Anyone who was...

Looks like they both left the basepath, but each did touch the plate with Hicks before Walker. Since they didn't leave said basepath in order to avoid getting tagged it shouldn't matter. IMHO a...

Hit #9 on Friday. Interesting that last season only 25 players hit more than 9 FSL homers all year. Only 10 hit more than 12. Another week or two like this and Miguel may force the Twins hand. ...

I know it's early, but Levi Michael is 2-2 as DH, with 2 triples in his 2013 debut @ Ft. Myers.

Not that there was any doubt, but it's nice to hear evidence that he's got some spirit!

Sano, Meintkiewicz & Wickens were ejected immediately after Miggy's 6th HR in the Ft. Myers game today. Anyone know what may have happened?

How bad can Arcia be in CF? I mean we're putting up with Willingham in LF and Plouffe at 3rd most of the time. Would it really be so bad if Ozzie gets a few starts in the middle?

Bottom line. With a five game skid and almost zero offensive production from CF or the entire line-up in general, something's gotta happen to shake things up. Ozzie is absolutely raking, and is...

So to qualify as a 'Super 2' or whatever the term is, he would have to stay up the rest of the this season plus the next two to qualify for arbitration?

This is what stands out for me too. Correct me if I'm wrong, but whether he's up for three days or 300, his service time clock keeps ticking regardless. I don't think they bring him up unless...

What's the prognosis on Pinto's defense behind the plate? A solid year at AA/AAA this year could certainly put him in line for a spot behind Mauer if he's not a Matt LeCroy on D.

Quick, bold prediction. By the end of the month his BA will be up to the .240 range, with an OBP over .300. He'll trend upward and end the season in the .270/.340 range, while providing stellar D. ...

Then pulled. Ouch! Josue Montanez is making his CR debut trying to take care of the final 6 outs.

Looks like he's perfecto through 7.

Don't forget that a pinch-hitter off the bench may be required for Floriman or Escobar in the nine hole and Carroll or Dozier in the two-hole on a regular basis. Who's that gonna be? Has to be...

Got me again. I made the original post without really looking at the career stats. Pujols is in another league from everyone else, as his 10-year $240mil deal would suggest. My point was that if...

Err, ...I meant the Pujols' of the past couple years and going forward. Yeah, that's what I meant. OK. I was being a bit liberal with the word similar. But I still contend that anything near...

He's only 31. If his health really has returned to pre-concussion form, there is no reason why he can't play 1B/DH for another 4-5 years at peak performance levels. He's 1 & 1/2 years younger than...

I would guess as was posted earlier, that the OF in CR could be pretty crowded this summer and they may look to push someone up a level to open up playing time. TR probably feels that Maxie is the...

From seeing him in Thursday night's game, I think it's fair to say that Sano has completely filled out his frame. He has always been physically mature for his age, and I think it's safe to say he's...

I agree. He'll be good enough there if he works at it. Don't forget the abyss that has been the Twins hot corner for a decade plus. We're gonna quibble because this guy with more power than...

I didn't post this with the intention of suggesting anyone that opts for Kirby, Mauer, Oliva, Hrbek, Carew or someone else was wrong. I merely meant that for myself, Harmon was the reason I became a...
