  1. I know it's easy to fall for fools gold, but when I look at our top 20 prospects, recent draft, add buxton/lewis/jeffers/ryan/lopez to the mix, and our payroll flexibility..... I am really excited about what this could be in a year or 2. this post will probably come back to haunt me
  2. Tired of being in the middle. I love every aspect of a complete sell off. Folks that only wanted to sell expirings will keep us ho-hum for years. Go big or go home.
  3. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. Your grades on the trades are 2 letters below the national media. Guess we'll see who is right.
  4. I would love for you to be right but I doubt we get the Dodgers 11th ranked prospect who was a 1st rounder 2 yrs ago. But here's hoping!
  5. Really fair point, but risk on the Duran side too. Has to be a reason he's now 99/100 vs 103/104. Maybe it's the guns! :)
  6. Again, bringing reality into the deal will take you down. Brutal arm chairs here today. Keeps it humorous.
  7. Reardon. and they all did it much more that 2.5 yrs with declining velocity
  8. Fair question. Next year, not terrible at all I think 5-6m. I hate to say, I don't think it matters, because we'll be bad again in 2026. Yes ,'team control' in 2027 but thats when we have to extend an again closer for big $, or commit to trading. hes my favorite twin, but i think the trade is solid
  9. Much like Jorge Lopez and Matt Capps? (Ramos was a Stud) Relievers can be tricky. On the flip side, Ryan Pressley trade didn't work out well.
  10. I have a friend from Philly and he is concerned about Durans 3mph velocity loss
  11. Because we will not be good for two years, so he provides no value, and Duran will get expensive. Have you ever negotiated anything? Demanding a ridiculous return isn't how it goes.
  12. Well some on here seem to. Did we need to trade him. Absolutely not. Does a top closer help this team this year, or next? Absolutely not.
  13. So who did you want? Not your typical conjecture... literally, who that was offered to the Twins did you want?
  14. For today, one swing, your point is valid. I love his immense power also. But in total, he is emblematic of everything wrong. No fielding .200 hitting right fielder. Yet we (or at least Rocco) thought he would be a great lead off hitter? We have far to many AAAA players and sadly Matt is one of them. ive tried to say... the worse we play, the value of or tradable assets goes down every single minute. Glad we at least moved Paddock
  15. The OP set good bait with very definitive statements based on items like 'there were reports the rays and Yankees had interest'.... and a few posters latched on, hard. Good job OP drumming up responses, I guess. It has been humorous back and forth.
  16. 💯 Classic thread. You would think we just traded Clayton Kershaw in his prime for a bucket of balls.
  17. We can again disagree on which national media we follow :) but ESPN gives tigers a D, twins a C. Is a C great, no, because this is such an insignificant trade. But at least to them, the Twins win it. Will it take us 4 years to find out? Yes. folks (not you) riled up over a Paddock/Dobnak trade are giving me a good laugh.
  18. I'm not saying you must trade, but Joe Ryan's trade value (and Duran/Jax) literally goes down every minute from here. They are at the tops of their game, and their window of control gets shorter and shorter. its great they are playing awesome, but the team is going nowhere. Its all for no meaning. The longer it goes, the less the return will be.
