Ian Kennedy would fit the definition of a large contract on a non-contending team.

How do you know they didn’t. They probably called.

The Indians are not selling. They took from pitching for two major league ready OF. Puig and Reyes.

What is the Twins equivalent. Rosario and Kepler? Cave isn’t Puig or Reyes.

They’d Like Kiriloff I’m sure... who wouldn’t but they want the bats now.
I’m sure the Twins inquired but based on the return. The Twins won’t be a match.

 

I was talking about the Twins calling the Reds, not the Indians. No way the Tribe would have dealt Bauer within the division, or even the AL.

I would hope so. Even low cost guys like Lucroy are being DFA'd. The article mentions veteran LHP Tony Sipp. Playoff experience with Houston. Hot hand since May 15. Super cheap contract with 2020 option. Guys like this need to have the tires throughly kicked. Little to lose, a lot to gain.

 

And still an open 40-man spot available?

...That being said, Sam Dyson is just what the doctor ordered ....

 

 

May I retract that last statement?

 

Why now, when your first statement has been rendered empirically true?

 

Doctors and other medical professionals are sure to profit from whatever mysterious malady Dyson's arm incurred by donning a Twins uniform, facing 10 batters, and allowing 6 earned runs.
