Apparently this guy brings it in the upper 90's down in Cedar Rapids. I'm curious when he could be looking at a promotion? Seth?

The thing is this:

It is fine for Gardy to let Correia go out for the start of the 8th, he was on a roll!

The problem is this:

Gardy needs to have a guy ready so that as soon as their is...

Let's just plan on this in 2015.

CF Buxton
LF Hicksinator
C Mauer
3B Sano
RF Arcia
1B Parmelee
DH Pinto
SS Random FA

Why an extension? He is signed for next year already. I think at that point he will be 36? Then you can go year to year with him if you would like to keep him around, but we will have multiple OF'ers...

Glad he finally got going. Gives us a great bench-bat option, decent enough backup catcher and an occaisional DH.

Listen, we are a .500 team right now and I'm not sure we can get much better than that. THIS IS THE YEAR YOU CAN PLAY GUYS WHO YOU NEED TO FIND OUT IF THEY CAN PLAY OR NOT. We are playing .500 ball...

No.

Don't forget outfielder as well!!!!

I'm hopeful that something crazy happens and we get Gray. Also, I forgot Diamond so therefore he is not in the Twins future plans, obviously. lol

Just for funzies, let's make some guesses and pull it up in a couple years.

1. Alex Meyer
2. Kyle Gibson
3. Liam Hendriks
4. Vance 'Romance' Worley
5. Jon Gray

Hopefully I get 2 of 5.

Send down Ramirez, instead of Hicks or Arcia, PLEASE.

Straight switch:

Hernandez for Gibson when it is time.
Also, when are the Twins going to let Hendriks sink or swim? It's either that or find out if his stuff plays up in the bullpen...

He is 100% healthy is what he meant, I believe.

I think it's probably just time to add Buxton to 40 man and start him in CF and cut Hicksy.

Lol, the best part about this is that Wood is NOT an asset to this team. The Twins will somehow make it seem like we MUST have him on the MLB roster. Let me guess, he works in the low 90's with some...

He's gonna be a good one to watch for a very long time, I've got that feeling. Someday, Buck, Mauer, Bocaton will be swinging it together up in the TC.

I just have a hard time seeing a big slump from Buxton. He has so far shown a decent eye at the plate and he is so darn fast that outs, become hits thus preventing slump-like numbers. May 1, move him...

Right, hopefully no one took this post as Hicks sucks, lets dump him to the Pirates. I still think he can be successful, probably needs more time in MiLB though.

RF tonight, Parm off day
LF tomorrow, Willi DH
DH Wednesday, Doumit off day

There really is no reason not to give him 3 looks. I will actually be pissed if we wasted the kids time and didn't...

If struggles continue, do you just suggest more seasoning in AAA?

Do they send the message down with him that he is a RH batter? It would make sense, being the majority of his at-bats have been LH(and terrible) that the Twins would send him down with the task being...

I mean, they could definitely find playing time for him if he deserves it. I guess if that happened, they would send Hicks down and give the starting CF job to Mastro. Hicks could spend time DH'ing,...

I have no issues with sending him out for the 8th, BUT, there was no reason he couldn't have Burton loose there to face Gordon. Would've been a runner on 3rd with a strikeout pitcher and a strikeout...

If the season were to end today:

The Twins would play a game 4 and game 5 against the White Sox and Indians to determine who won the AL Central.

If they were not victorious, they would then...

Lots of season left. Draft is more than 2 months away. I believe Manea has plenty of time to sweep people off their feet again. Looking back at it, I wish we would've lost a few more games last year...
