  1. Cave is a starting OF on a losing team. I just don't see enough defense or offense for him to warrant 500 ABs. No issues with him being an injury fill in, but he is not a stat filler
  2. Will be interesting to see what they do if Cruz has another year like last year. At some point father time will kick in, but I would keep riding that horse as long as we can
  3. Good read. A lot of new faces around this year, hope the results are the same or better.
  4. People need to get over their fear of the Yankees! We can go toe to toe with them and win a series. This team is more balanced, has deeper SP and the bats are more experienced
  5. Thought pitching prospects weren't good until they had TJ surgery? The list of guys that have TJ and continue to dominate is really long. Hope he continues to dominate a d he gets to play in Boston and makes them regret backing out
  6. Maybe the Dodgers have to kick in another player.
  7. Do you really think the Dodgers were holding him back to save money? I doubt that! IMO his 2 pitch selection and walks kept him from going more than 6 IPs. Maybe Wes can get his walk rate down and squeeze another inning out of him on avg. Love this move! Now we have an above average rotation and flexibility if injuries hit
  8. Love the trade! Sucks to lose Graterol, but out front office has come out on top in their trades so far. So maybe last September was a way to audition him as trade bait. Maeda is going to cost us peanuts for the next 4 years!
  9. Exciting future ahead for the Twins! If him and Brusdar develop like we all hope, this could give us the 2 front line starters we have been hoping for!
  10. All 3 had some good outings last year and gained valuable experience. With a steady bullpen, none of them will be asked to get 7 innings every night. Just get us 4-5 and keep it close. Just as Dobnak and Smeltzer surprised last year, I'm sure we will have a few arms surprise this year.
  11. Romero needs to refine his craft. Hopefully the arm responds to the coaches ideas and he can eliminate some walks.
  12. Is it me, or has the writing on this site gone to the birds? Every day we have an article that is a major reach on the possible or the impossible. This site used to site facts and prospects, not crap like the competition
  13. Some great points brought up ITT. Fact is that every long term contract carries risk. Wheeler and Ryu could blow ligaments and have 1.5+ wasted seasons. As for aging and performance, look no further than Cruz. If Donaldson takes care if his body, there is no reason he still he isn't producing in 4 years.
  14. We have seen plenty top prospects flame out before they got to the majors. Gordon could have brought a solid return 2 years ago and now Seth projects he gets DFA'd for Donaldson. Now is the time to strike!
  15. I believe he really has confidence in himself and is willing to go year to year. As a Twins fan, I would love to see him locked down for 5 years
  16. I'm shocked he took $14m in a walk year. Guess Sano didn't really want to trust himself and his health.
  17. If we get 40 IP out if Hill, I will consider this a great signing. I have never seen a guy with more injuries, yet still come back to dominate at times.
  18. I doubt Jorge would bring the biggest return in a trade, but there are not many ahead of him. IMO Sano, Bux, Jose all bring a higher return in a trade
  19. Woof! Trade for Gray and pick up Daniel Murphy's contract too. Wouldn't cost us a top 3-4 prospect either
  20. Ryu signs with the Bluejays for 4/$80. Seriously pissed we didn't come close on this one or with MadBum. Ryu was willing to give up how much in Canadian taxes? The 9% rate in MN isn't cheap, but less than Canada.
  21. With the current rotation, we are about equal to last year. Bullpen is better, but our offense has regressed IMO. Sign Donaldson and he can move to DH at the end of the contract. Except for 2018, Donaldson has been pretty healthy over his career. I would like to see the brass target Cueto, Gray from Colorado, Rich Hill.
  22. Would love to see another proven veteran, or even a reclamation project signed. Dobnak, Smeltzer and Thorpe are a step above Martin Perez's season!
