Same old thing every year, fans start out with expectations (not high) but expectations.   We watch players go off the table and then have to wait for the scraps.  I 100% knew Correa would not stay as I am sure the front office did so they could say or at least put on the appearance of trying.  

Wait a minute... are you saying Twins fans aren't high? Haven't you been following the TD trade threads?

I was so disappointed when they let Cruz go.  Not sure if he even wanted to stay.  I bet it is the dream of every decent Twins player to get traded.  Probably the equivalent of being promoted from AA to the MLB.   I get frustrated when I see “trade Arraez for….” posts.   He is a batting champion!!!!!

Good grief, that was an elite trade. We got back a starting pitcher who is already a core part of the rotation for half a season of Nelson Cruz.

And Cruz has helped multiple twins after he was traded

Their best move by far. 

Signing Nelson Cruz was also an excellent move. Maybe they just need to find a way to include Nelson Cruz in all Twins transactions. ?
