Yep, ALEX COLOME goes to Colorado. I wonder how he will do in Coors Feild.

 

What I most feel bad about, besides the lack of interest in Alex at the trade deadline, is that the Twins kep him on as the closer rather than try anyone or anyone else who would probably be around for 2022 or even years to come. It was their opportunity to look at internal options, perhaps, and also to allow some players to walk....instead they brought up a bunch of also rans who failed to stick around when the fall off-season roster cuts started.

EDDIE ROSARIO returns to the Braves on a two-year $18 million contract.

 

 But, longterm, wonder.....

 

Who is in left field?

 

 

Well, Larnach, Rooker and Celestino all got looks last year, although none of them did that well. Do remember a lot if good players scuffle in their first exposure to the big leagues. 
 

If he’s not needed at first, Kirilloff looks like a keeper. Down the road, either Martin or Lewis could end up in left field and be able to play center to back up Buxton. Wallner also could figure in by the end of the year.

Former Twin Isiah Kiner-Falefa looks like he will be the Yankees starting shortstop this season. :)

Source?  I had not heard this rumor.

I always felt like Rocco didn't give him enough ABs.

Why trade for a guy if you let him rot on the pine. That's bush league.

Drew Maggi and Isiah Kiner-Falefa should form a We Hate Rocco club.

LUKE RALEY, who the Twins got in the Dozier trade and who played for Rochester in 2018-19, only to be traded back to the Dodgers along with Brusdar Graterol for Maeda and Jair Camargo in 2020, is traded to the Tampa Bay Rays.

 

 

TYLER ANDERSON, a former (unsigned) 2008 draftee, was signed by the Dodgers.

 

Meanwhile, instead of pursuing perhaps the above mentioned left-hander, the Twins signed CHI CHI GONZALEZ to a minor leage deal (thankfully not a 40-man spot) based, on part, to fond memories when our front office worked elsewhere.

HANSEL ROBLES is returning to the Red Sox, who traded for him mid-season.

 

IAN KROL who pitched briefly at Rochester in 2019 has signed with the Padres.

Along with the recently claimed Ralph Garza Jr. now a Red Sox after being claimed, add JT Riddle to the ex-Twins list as he has signed a minor league deal with the Reds.
