The Twins Should be Shopping Sonny Gray

[TwinsDr2021]

Update -

Since his amazing April (4 - 0, .77 ERA)

14 starts 70 1/3 innings, 4.35 ERA, 5.41 innings per start, 0 wins.

And the twins are 3 - 11 in his starts.

To make such foolish statements in the middle of the season shows Gray is not a team builder and should be traded. 

Or has a large inflated ego of himself which is not unusual for pro athletes.  But after last night's performance (5 runs given up to Seattle), he's MOST definitely untradeable and the Twins would be crazy giving up a guy like that, it would be like giving up on the season after THAT performance, tongue in cheek of course.

What if the Twins went to old fashioned looong relief?

Put him in in the fifth or sixth to finsh the game?

Smart:  Trading Sonny Gray because the Twins are not playoff-caliber.

Dumb:  Trading Sonny Gray because it appears he would maybe quit baseball instead of taking $60-$80 million.

I'll try an Aaron Gleeman-type analogy here:  No, screw that.  If it doesn't make sense as is, I can't help you.
