Austin Martin Has Reached A Crossroads

I think we have pretty much run to the end of Martin's time with the Twins. Trade or DFA, there really is no room in the outfield for next year. The Twins need to improve at all levels and holding playing time for maybe's is something that has to change.

Berrios WAR as a Blue Jay during the seasons of team control the Twins traded away: 0.8. The extension he signed with the Blue Jays is irrelevant

Only if you assume there was no way the Twins wouldn't have been able to extend him.  And we all know how to spell ASS u ME

They didn’t want to pay Berrios market rate for those years, which is looking like the correct decision.

If the twins are serious about building a competitive roster , then Martin isn't on this team. Super utility or utility guys mean they aren’t good at any position, they just aren’t. If ownership group wants us to believe they are spending/building the future competitive team than guys like Martin aren’t needed. 
 

DFA candidate most likely, bottom barrel teams we would be lucky to make a trade, nothing meaningful though. I don’t believe in our team senior leadership to build via trade or free agency, 2027 might be brutal compared to this year
