Do Any Teams Value Max Kepler More Than the Twins?

[Doctor Gast]

This article is about Kepler. 

Twins advertising that they were basically dumping salary. Basically told everyone that we were holding a fire sale. Teams after that never really thought of giving the Twins a reasonable offer on Polanco or Kepler. FO correctly said that there'd be no prospects & only need to need trading. Soon after they received prospects & players that filled no real need.

So LH hitter Kepler could fill a viable need someplace but nobody'd take this FO seriously and offer anything for him. And yes the type of hitting w/ SOs would be more valued by this team than others.

I would say no. I don’t necessarily think the Twins overvalue Kepler either. I think they just see the reality. If Lewis isn’t going to be an OF, they really don’t have an excess amount of OF’s. 
 

they still need a CF backup right now and getting rid of Kepler means they’d have to find a starter and a backup unless they’re going to give it to Martin. 
 

I also don’t believe that adding Kepler would have netted one of the young M’s pitchers. I only think the inclusion of one of Jenkins, Lee or Julien may do that.
