  1. Based on our current talent and our talent pool I'd say they have only pried the window open 70% of the way with it fully open in two years. Let's wait until we get the window completely open before we try to decide how long they can keep it open ..
  2. Gibaut, whose forty-man spot was taken by Matt Shoemaker, is the third pitcher the Twins have successfully outrighted to the minors since filling their forty-man roster this offseason. Hmmm. what does that statement say about the quality of these pitchers ..
  3. Late 2022 .. Berrios Maeda Duran, Balazovic, Canterino
  4. Arreaz at first base? How tall is he? What's his catch radius? You've got to be kidding me ...
  5. Shoemaker is an excellent low risk, high reward pickup .. Wonder if his ancestors were shoemakers
  6. Yes, he is the only one that makes sense due to his low salary and years of control. I like your trade offer and would be very open to even moving Sano for him as well as a million other combinations. Only players that should be untouchable are Kirilloff, Lewis and Balazovic ...
  7. If the National League adopts the designated hitter rule for 2022 the one year deal actually benefits Cruz. I'm wondering if your 125 million includes the easily makeable Maeda bonus? I hope so ..
  8. This has nothing to do with this article. Just an observation about the Eddie signing. The fact he could only get a one year 8 million deal points out the Twins Brass were correct on his true value ...
  9. I spend time in STL each year and go to Cardinal games with my brother in law. Wong is a solid yet unspectacular player. But it's his position flexibility that doesn't work fo me. The thought of Wong getting the nod over Arraez turning Arraez into some kind of a utility player that doesn't have a home is a reach. And move him to the outfield. We are loaded with outfielders who hit for power. So teams around the league would love to trade for Arraez while no one is knocking at Wong's door and we are supposed to replace Arraez a second for Wong? Sorry, just can't see it ..
  10. You sucked me in with the headline .. Things are Happening .. LOL Then I find out you mean things are happening for everyone but the Twins Bummer ..
  11. All I can say is we are better off today than we were yesterday ..
  12. I love watching my Twins but I wish Baseball had some form of salary cap like the NFL. I get so tired of the Yankees being able to outspend us 2/1 and then we wonder why the Twins can't beat them ..
  13. My gut had told me the White Sox had pulled ahead and this confirms it .. thx
  14. The real question is why did they let the White Sox out bid them for Hendricks. Could make the difference in who wins the division. Now they have to spend big anyway just to catch up to paraty ..
  15. It's all about value. Only big splurge they have made using emotion was Donaldson and his health concerns make me very nervous. Stick with the plan and be patient for good deals .. Along with giving serious consideration to the wonderful talent we have waiting in the winds ..
  16. Probably comes down to whether they sign a top notch starting pitcher or not .. If not, put the money into his Hand ..
  17. There are definitely players there worth trading for if we can work a fair deal.
  18. I never like renting a player for one year. It smacks of now or never when our window is wide open for at least the next 3 years .. or more
  19. Arreaz has everything you want as a second baseman. I would simply plug him in until the cows come home ... 330 hitters with great command of the strike zone are hard to come buy. He lacks homerun power but if there is one position on the field that does ot provide a lot of power it's second base. We shouldn't over think this just because we have fielding issues a SS and an injury prone third baseman. Those issues have nothing to do with Arreaz
  20. I love the way you laid this out Mathew .. So, I would take the elite pitching plan, drop Wood and Rosenshein (7m +7m = 14m) and use it to resign Cruz ...
  21. Obviously 1B is the least of the Twins concerns ..
