    Man, I should have edited my last post .. lol but you get the gist
  2. saviking
    I agree. We slidbthr window back unless new ownership spends big next year. At least they have 22 million to work with from the Correa trade. I wish someone woukd dobabrankung if our NEW too 40 minor league players. Only waybI can evaluate what we got for all the players we imunloaded. The Vsrland trade made no sense.

    I sense the gave up on him is real. Too rated projects that dont turn out are very seldom rehabbed.
  4. saviking
    Thats not what bothers me. Its that Im not seeing fair value coming our way.
  5. saviking
    It's like we gave them all away! Im not digging what they got in return. Only hope is the new owner is going tonspend big in free agency. If not, I'm not sure we can even field a team next year. My mind is officially blown, but not in a good way. Anyone willing to share your asprin.

    Also, trading these players away for minor league prospects does nothing for next years team without unloading 36 mill a year to able to sign veterans to next years club.
  7. saviking
    If true, and the Twins don't jump all over this chance to unload 36 mill a year of salary, then they are nuts. I don't even care if they get anything in return. Just unloading his salary is enough for me.

    Great write up! Youbcan trade anyone but Duran and I'd be fine. Youbcould trade everyone but Duran and I'd still be fine
  9. saviking
    Pretty much agree. The most I would do is trade Jax, but only if you got a big package. My hunch is Duran is the only one who could get a huge package.
  10. saviking
    I trust him to do the best he can .. buttt
  11. saviking
    That is not the point. You're talking about next year. I'm talking about the ability to keep and sign Ryan, and Durhan to new contracts. That's where Correa's contract will get in the way.
  12. saviking
    I agree with the exception that because we are hung with Correa's enormous salary we won't have the money sign them before they become free agents.
  13. saviking
    Same here. I've been bashing the Correa signing ever sense I got to see him play in a Twins uniform for the first 3 months. I was relieved when he was going to sign with the Mets before becoming disappointed again when we resigned him long term. That first three months in a Twins uniform was enough to know that although he was a very good player he in no way was worth that percentage of the Twins salary cap.
  14. saviking
    Management because they put 25 percent of the teams salary cap into one player. That's like playing Russian Roulette. You miss and it haunts you until you can either unload the player or their contract runs out ..

    Nail players feet tobthe deck that you plan on being an integral part of the team in 27-28 seasons, then fly though a hurricane and see who blows off the deck.
  16. saviking
    No
  17. saviking
    Only if you are doing a short rebuild and dont think next year could be the year.
  18. saviking
    Why get rid of key pieces with team control? Just unload any deadwood or players whose contracts are up and you aren't going to renew for whatever you can get for them. Then wait for the new owners to make their move
  19. saviking
    I still cant believe people defend paying an aging star 36 million a year. Esoecially in a team strapped for cash. I woukd give him away for nothing if someone would take him and his salary. But you wouldn't find any takers and that's the issue.
  20. saviking
    I would like to see Eeles take Castros place.
  21. saviking
    So why did you put him in a list of 5 players worthy off making the all star game then?
  22. saviking
    Thanks Thumbs 👍
  23. saviking
    To move Correa ... would have to include cash relief or we give them significant projects. Nothing .. says we screwed up signing Correa than this. How many more years isnhe signed for?
  24. saviking
    Year, after year, after year. Injures derail the Twins. Can't we just enjoy one season without too many players going down? It really is exhausting.
  25. saviking
    I NEVER liked shelling out 36 mill a year to one player on a small market team. I agree with everything you said but the only way we could really rebuild is to unload Correa and his salary. We did after his first year and then got sucked right back in. But nobody is going to take an aging (often i lnjured) star off our hands and pay his salary so we're stuck with him. Can you imagine what we could do with that 36 million if we could. I mean, I'd just give him to someone if they woukd take him and his salary. Okay, hit me with the hate responses like always happens when I posted this opinion over the last 3 years. I'm hardened. I can handle it.
