We should have the twins and saints hitters just switch places
Honestly, I’m out on Larnach at this point. I’ve been patient with him but he hasn’t shown he can hit big league pitching and has such a long and loopy swing idk if he ever will. Hopefully he can stay hot the rest of the year and convince other teams he’s figured it out and boost his trade value for the offseason.
But I’m still holding out hope on Martin. His speed, bat-to-ball skills, and gap-to-gap hitting if he can find what he had before we tried to turn him into a home run hitter would be fun to watch at Target Field and would balance this lineup well.
Martin could be next year’s budget Willi Castro. A utility guy with speed.
