    That is some odd goal-post moving and analysis there.

    Sonny Gray and Joe Ryan will be healthy. The problem is that the Twins have a #2 starter, a couple #3's, and a TON of #5/fringe type starters who could be league average, or not. There's only one great bullpen piece. The only guy in the lineup who can carry the lineup is going to be hurt more games than not.

    I think Maeda will presumably make the rotation opening day next year, but who knows. Depth will be needed either way. Paddack also could be a solid #3 but he's a complete wild card with injuries at this point.

    DFA Sanchez I'd guess. I really like Archer as a person but the Twins are losing all of his starts. Bundy is pitching well. I'd go with Gray, Ryan, Mahle, Varland and Bundy as starters to finish the year. Give the team the best shot to make the playoffs.

    Bundy Lol. Good interview there.
  6. dex8425
    That would be awesome.
  7. dex8425
    To be fair, Arraez should've definitely caught both of those. He is a terrible first baseman.
  8. dex8425
    He was fine for the first inning. Problem was when he was sent out for a second inning. He even hit 100 on the gun in his first inning of work.
  9. dex8425
    He was not reportedly not touching triple digits until the shortened covid season. He did have the nasty splinker and good curve. He just couldn't stay healthy as a starter. When the twins traded for him he was sitting low 90's and touching mid 90's, but all over the place and had injury issues before. He was a wildcard for sure.
  10. dex8425
    Randy Johnson and Curt Schilling are both available.
  11. dex8425
    You're right there's not much. At least Glen Perkins was successful. Cory Luebke was good but injuries took him out of baseball. Meyer is on the injury road too.
  12. dex8425
    Lots of injuries, but no more than on the MLB club. SMW is pitching well. Really hoping Jordy Blaze turns it around.
  13. dex8425
    But the good pitching prospects are still here. Balazovic, Varland, Simeon Woods Richardson, Winder, Canterino, Raya, Enlow.
  14. dex8425
    Rogers has been awful this year though. Paddack has more WAR this year than Rogers does.

    Correa for Soto???

    dex8425 commented on Doc Munson's blog entry in Fantasy GM

    The problem I see with the yankees in the Soto speculation is that they don't have the prospect capital the Nats would want, unless the deal is mostly a salary dump, in which case they could send 150m or so to the Nats along with prospects. I don't see that happening with NYY already in revenue sharing territory.

    Correa for Soto???

    dex8425 commented on Doc Munson's blog entry in Fantasy GM

    Not happening. Soto has a TON of excess trade value. He's the modern day Ted Williams. Not even worth speculating on the Twins. They'd have to include Joe Ryan, Spencer Steer, Jose Miranda, Trevor Larnach, Kirilloff, Bailey Ober and Carlos Correa to even get the Nationals to pick up the phone and get within shouting distance.

    Per fangraphs the Twins have a better change of making the postseason than either CWS or Cle. The White Sox suck. Their clubhouse is a mess. The Twins are like two bullpen arms away from running away with the division.
  18. dex8425
    Both of those guys are going to get a deal somewhere around 4/90. 10m isn't going to move the needle much for as they'll be getting a long term deal like Robbie Ray's.
  19. dex8425
    It was certainly a rough game to watch in person. I've been to 15 games or so this season and that was by far the worst. We left after the grand slam. Rocco should've pulled Gray when he was hit by the pitch. Cueto is one of the slowest working starters in MLB.
  20. dex8425
    His stuff is still good. I don't really understand why his ERA is so high. Twins probably have a better defense than SD does.
  21. dex8425
    Good defense and no miscues there that I saw. Celestino could not get a bunt down (2 attempts, then struck out) but defense was good, nice plays from Correa and Celestino. Good at bats from everybody except Buxton who was 0-5 with four strikeouts. He swung at everything.
  22. dex8425
    No chance, especially with the PED suspension.
  23. dex8425
    We had a thread on this already. No.
  24. dex8425
    Sands has been awful. No thanks.
  25. dex8425
    Rocco said "we need a full bullpen." Kinda feels like a jab at the FO to me...Right now he does not have a full bullpen. He has one great option and one good option.
