  1. I wouldn't mind seeing Winder get the ball every 5th day. He has been impressive to me. Maybe Canterino can take over his long man BP spot. As LF, if Larnach falters, stick Lewis in. He proved his bat was ready.
  2. Is he a hard thrower? Have noticed he has started out hot this year.
  3. In all fairness they are down quite a few bats. Though I do agree
  4. What an opportunity for Miranda. Kid has a shot to get his feet wet and cement himself on the big club for a long time. We were getting zero production from Sano, so Rocko can have some patience with Miranda.
  5. Lewis is going to have a meteoric rise in the mid-season top 100. He can absolutely hit! D play isn't fabulous, but neither is Correa
  6. At what point is Royce cled up to inject some life into this offense? I know they want him to get reps at SS, but dang we could use that bat in the OF!
  7. Behind Buxton, Arraez is my favorite Twin. (Correa is a 4 month rental IMO). Arraez gives you a great AB nearly every PA, doesn't complain above being moved around and seems well liked in the clubhouse. Not sure where his value lies, but I would love to see him locked up on a team friendly long term deal. I know it has been asked before about his knee, but I don't remember seeing an answer. Are his issues of degenerative nature? Or recurring issues from his knee surgery he had in the minors?
  8. Love this trade! Bit of a risk, but Paddock has the arm to be a solid #3-4 guy for 3 years. I will not miss Rogers blowing saves or Rooker striking out. Pagan needs to cut down on the HRs allowed and if he does, he is a strong addition to the pen. Good move by the braintrust
  9. I just don't trust Rogers as a closer. He is a great RP, but not a great closer. Hope he proves me wrong and dominates in his walk year
  10. If Bundy and Archer can rebound, stay healthy and give quality innings, this rotation is solid for the regular season. It is not a post season rotation though. Need one of the young guys to take a step up and be the next Joe Ryan. Sounds like Winder and Duran will open with the big club in the pen, hope they get enough innings to stay stretched out. Hate 5 and fly pitchers, but we will see way too much of it this year
  11. Have watched Cave and Celestino a handful of times this spring. Celestino looks lost at the plate, while Cave has consistently given professional ABs. Cave's job to lose IMO
  12. Dicks like this can go ...... themselves
  13. Hope Urshela rebounds and turns into a good trade asset in July. Need to see if Miranda is long term solution at 3B
  14. Detroit, Angel's and Royals are hot n after Montas too. It is going to take an impressive package to land him.
  15. Losing teams trade talent for prospects or hope. We gave up a top C and 3B for a below average 3B and C/DH that can't catch. I'm passing on the 2 long shot ML guys, who knows how they will do. Overall, this FO failed at bringing in value for the talent they sent out.
  16. Exactly what it is! Sanchez n Gio make a combined $14m and we shipped out over $27m. Sanchez is in his walk year and unless he has a great couple months, he won't bring value in the trade market
  17. Good breakdown! Love this trade for the Twins. If Ronny can be a good RP in the bigs next year, this will be a great trade.
  18. Same for me. Just a good baseball trade, need for need. Why do I have a feeling that this moves Martin to trade chip #1 with the A's.
  19. The union wants to stop teams from doing what the As are going to do IMO. I am shocked the union didn't get a floor salary # for every team.
  20. I'd do a one year deal with him, worst case he becomes a trade asset in 4 months
  21. No college pitchers in your top 8? Is it a weak year for them?
  22. How cerebral is Ryan on the mound? Does he know what happens if contact is made on a certain pitch? Does he set up his pitches? He seems to have a bulldog mentality on the mound and I love that in his makeup. I see his control of his fastball and think of Maddux painting the corners or inducing a pop up. Neither guy has much for gas, but you don't need it if you can paint.
  23. Not that he is horrible on the road, it is that he wants to paid on his Coors Field stats. Top 18-20 SS doesn't warrant $20m+ per with OK glove. Strong pass at that price. Now if it was 1 year around $10-12m, sure.
  24. Gordon did play some SS down the stretch and did fine. I'd rather roll him out vs some over the hill Simmons
  25. Strong pass! Look at his home/road splits. He is nothing away from the mile high city. 241 avg, 310 OBP, 442 SLG vs 303 avg, 369 OBP, 603 SLG
