  1. They couldn't move a proven bat in Larnach. Doubt Mendez would have brought back much more than a donkey. E-Rod is the one they need to see what he can do in the bigs
  2. Keaschall doesn't have an OF arm! He is serviceable in the OF. Love his bat potential and wish he could have mastered 2B
  3. Hope Pepper starts working on his 3B skills. Houston is so much much better with the glove. He is the reason why the FO should have used Pepper as trade bait for a quality, controllable SP
  4. Shocked that Jeffers is still on the team! Do they spend on Jeffers to meet the new floor payroll that is proposed? Would 3 years $55 get it done?
  5. Is Mendez strictly a corner OF and DH? He looks like he could still add 30#s to his frame
  6. Good to know! He has exceptional talent and the games I saw him, he was dominant. Yanks would have to include another top 20 prospect and hope this is a fluke injury.
  7. Exactly where I am at. We all love Wallner's big bombs, but he has proven to have more holes in that swing than Swiss cheese. Why can't a reliable bat like Bell be our DH next year? I believe the Twins hold an option on his contract. Has Wallner cut down on his Ks or is he just taking advantage of bad AAA pitching?
  8. 💯 It would irresponsible for the Twins to go after any rentals to appease the media jackels and ignorant fans. We are a power hitter, 2 SP and at least 3 RPs away from even winning a series. If I get to play GM, I am looking into Hunter Greene with his team friendly contract and RPs with at least 2 years of control. Could we use the assets we get from Ryan, Jeffers and whoever else we move to target Greene. Does Larnach have much value? I would assume we could get a much better prospect than we got for Bader last year
  9. We know Boras won't allow an extension, unless it is an overpay. So I am not bringing him up with the upcoming lockout. Jenkins needs to add more strength and stay healthy for longer than 20 games at a time.
  10. It isn't about the salary for me, it is the assets. I would be fine giving up a combo of Tait, Culpepper and E-Rod. Definitely not Jenkins, Houston, or any minor league pitching.
  11. Cute pipe dream! I believe Buck wants to stay a Twin for life and the Twins will make that happen. Extending Ryan is a disservice to the future of the Twins. The risk/reward just isn't worth it fir a franchise like MN. Ryan is looking at a $40m per contract, we can not afford that. Trade him for 2-3 top 10 prospects and can thus season.
