Twins get there replacement catcher for Jeffers.
Vahn Lackey is basically everything you can ask for catching prospect. Mauer type patience with more power from what i heard from what connections i have left on twins scouting. I have on pretty good authority if the Twins were at #1 that he most likely would've been the pick for them as well.
Pretty excited the team has played as good as they've. Its too bad Culpepper has been banged up as he be up woth the club by now.
Walker Jenkins looks like he's going to be the truth. Hopefully they can flip Larnach and Jeffers for some bullpen help at the deadline.
There no reason not to trade Jeffers at deadline there not gonna pay him and they need to get something value for him Espically how good Cartina has played behind him
Twins #3 pick
Re: Twins #3 pick
Yeah, I liked the pick too, jester. I hadn't heard that they had Lackey #1, but it seemed like they went into the draft knowing they would like whoever fell to 3. Quite a contrast to all the years it seemed like the Wolves always had pick X plus 1 in an X-player draft!Jester1534 wrote: ↑Sat Jul 11, 2026 3:36 pm Twins get there replacement catcher for Jeffers.

I also am excited about this ball club. Obviously the bullpen remains an issue, although improving, and I sure wasn't expecting us to be leading the American League in runs at the break! Add in 2 high quality starting pitchers in Taj and Ryan and I guess it's not surprising we would be in the wild card spot if the season ended today.
