C-Gangster’s 2025 Payroll Blueprint: C-Gangsters 2025 Twins

[C-Gangster]

I think this would be fairly reasonable it would not put us to over the budget. We would keep mostly the same team. Also it would bring a little help by trading for rooker getting rid of paddack and vasquez clearing the budget. We'd also trade for fairbanks and trade for brendon donaven. So I think this team could do fairly well. But the odds of this happening slim to none.

What were the trades for Rooker and Fairbanks?

[I Miss The Lakes]

Going to need to add some dead money for that theoretic Vasquez trade. Twins will have to eat some of that $10m per

Mickey Gasper - backup catcher? The pitchers will go on strike.

The idea for a "play GM" is sort of fun but it needs an open and close time, maybe two times during the offseason if the bosses feel it worthy. The discussion was pretty nonexistent this year however, so perhaps the greater TD community has tired of the idea.

I don’t find them that entertaining because it’s like people are playing mlb the show. I am going to make these 6 interconnected trade and sign this free agent for less than market value and we will be under budget and win the World Series.

Well, I don't know what mlb the show is. I think I said it is sorta .... something over the winter. I think people know the Twins aren't the Yankees and very little to nothing will come to pass in an ordinary offseason. It's just passing the time.
