    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. HrbieFan
    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. HrbieFan
    Are there any rankings available for our DSL players?
  4. HrbieFan
    Anyone know what his defense is like? He has hit at every level and I don't need power, if he has the leather
  5. HrbieFan
    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

    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?
  7. HrbieFan
    Is Mendez strictly a corner OF and DH? He looks like he could still add 30#s to his frame
  8. HrbieFan
    Exactly! That would be a step down from even Kreidler
  9. HrbieFan
    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.

    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?

    💯 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

    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.
  13. HrbieFan
    Culpepper is one that I would dangle to the Angels in a Detmers package
  14. HrbieFan
    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.

    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.
  16. HrbieFan
    Ryan has pretty much said he will not extend and there might not be a season next year. Keeping Ryan is crazy IMO, even though I would love to keep him. Bell is a guy that I would offer a team friendly extension to. We need more professional hitters like him.
  17. HrbieFan
    With the proposed changes by the owners and the response by the MLBPA, I would put the chances of games in April at less than 20%.
  18. HrbieFan
    Consensus rankings was somewhere between 50 and 75, so not a huge overdraft IMO. If you love a guy and don't think he will last until your next pick, you take him early. Slot is around $2.3 for Tinney at 43. The #50 slot is $1.9, so I am hoping for a pre-draft deal around that # or less
  19. HrbieFan
    Love the shot in the dark! He has huge power, although there is a lot of swing and miss. To go this high, the Twin's brass believes he can hit, so let's give him 3 years. Wondering if there was a predraft agreement on an under slot contract
  20. HrbieFan
    Anyone familiar with what Preston Johnson brings to the mound? I know the Twins signed him out of indy league after Baltimore gave up on him. He looks like a workhorse on the mound at 6'4" and 250#s. Looks like the Twins are trying to stretch him out
  21. HrbieFan
    QO is said to be $23m plus, if there is a season next year. Lock in the assets in a trade and ride with Caritini and Jackson
  22. HrbieFan
    I remember multiple writers on here saying how irresponsible the signing of Caritini was because we already had Jackson. Both have worked out great and I am good with both of them being back next year.
  23. HrbieFan
    We have too many average bats in Minneapolis and St Paul. Fedko is an easy swap out right now for Roden. Jeffers should be called up shortly and they can't move Jackson without risk of losing him on wakvers and we will need him when Jeffers is traded in a few weeks.
  24. HrbieFan
    Otherwise known as a Buxton bomb!
  25. HrbieFan
    If you have trouble throwing strikes in St Paul, a promotion to the bigs isn't going to help.
