    I agree on Martin. People giving up on him after one poor season is irrational. Especially since he redeemed himself very well in the Fall. As for Lewis, why can't he sustain his 2022 ML numbers? I'd be disappointed if he doesn't do close to those myself. I would agree with the OP that his injury history is "troubling."

    I would guess once Lewis gets back up to speed Polanco will be moved. Hopefully Jorge has a monster year and brings a huge haul. As for Martin. Many are now writing him off because of his 2022 showing. Kind of reminds me of how people felt about Gordon after his 2018 stint in AAA. Now they think Gordon's pretty good and has a bright future.

    But yet the state of MN voted in Keith Ellison after he beat on his Ex? As for Bauer? No. He hasn't been good enough in his career to warrant the distractions that he could/can bring. He also hasn't pitched in a season and a half. No. Lets get someone better even though the price is almost free.

    I agree on Cruz. Everything to gain and nothing to lose except whatever millions it would take to sign him for the year. If he is done done you just cut him loose.

    We've already signed Gallo. I don't know what more anybody could want.

    We've head that old argument for forever. Since Target opened 13 calendar years ago we've resigned Mauer, Dobnak, Polanco, Kepler, Sano and Buxton to long term contracts. Who am I missing? So few are signed, so few are worth resigning. It's a silly argument and well overused.

    I hope they don't mess the guy up by forcing him to develop "power". Not every player has to be a HR hitter. He's done well at legging out doubles in his career. I long for the days when a guy who could play the game of baseball was appreciated.

    I agree with a few others. Correa has lost his bargaining leverage. Pohlad's can spend their money how they like but I wouldn't do 10/285. I'll do 6/165. This still beats the AAV of both the Giant and Met deals but alleviates the horrible longterm risk.

    I was also in the hospital for pancreatitis a few years back. I just remember the really weird dreams coming off of morphine. Really weird.

    Ortega is a meh, move. Lots of walks. Enlow is gone. He won't clear waivers.

    1970 Twin, Luis Tiant Tiant was at the very top from 64 thru 76, penalized for playing for Cleveland Guardians teams. He also stayed playing too long as he was ineffective by the end of his career. Bill Freehan would be in if I could vote him in. If Mauer is an HOFer, so was Freehan. 11 all stars as a Catcher? C'mon. Dan Quisenberry. Can't believe he was never voted in.

    Andrew Chafin Will Smith In that order of preference.

    I'm not a Christmas doer, but Merry Christmas Twins fans.

    That's why we can't do 60. I'm thinking more like 50/520. This way he'd only be 79 when he hangs her up. Besides, an 89 y/o wouldn't have any trade value at all would he?
  16. sweetmusicviola16
    I've always wanted to have a player nicknamed cool breeze on the Twins. Now I have it.
  17. sweetmusicviola16
    I have already purchased my Gallo 13 Twins jersey. I'm looking forward to seeing him in a Twins uni for the next 9 years of his career. Hot summer day games at Target will be much cooler from now on as we feel the magnificent breezes Joey makes as he swings through opposing pitches.
  18. sweetmusicviola16
    With all of the hype I'm hearing on here about Gallo one would think we'd look to extend him. Something like 6/96 maybe? Or if we have to 6/108. But to get the AAV down a bit possibly 9/135.

    Thank you lecroyfan

    As for my vote on Bauer? No. He hasn't pitched in a year and a half and who knows what effect that will have. Also many of his ML years he was a so-so pitcher. Being fair to the rest of the Twins team, why should they have to deal with any distraction Trevor may or may not bring? I'm also not interested in dumping on Bauer. He gets to deal with the repercussions of his past choices. I wish him the best, even though that is not a popular opinion.
  21. sweetmusicviola16
    I am confused on Bauer's reinstatement. It is immediate. But the Dodgers don't have to pay him for the first 50 games of the season? So they are on the hook for 22 of the 35mil? What's the deal?
  22. sweetmusicviola16
    I don't want Bauer. But I've done rottin **** myself. Not hit women but done lots and lots that needed forgiveness. I'm glad I received it fromChrist. I hope Bauer finds peace too.
  23. sweetmusicviola16
    Tbh I'd call Gray a #3 easily. But whatever, can't argue that we have a lot more potential on the staff than we've had in forever. Ryan looks to have #2 potential imo. But if we can't develop, and haven't since Santana, a TOP, then there is a way to get one. BY FA which they seem to refuse to do. I don't think we have in the organization what would be needed to acquire one by trade. Lineup is a real mess though....
  24. sweetmusicviola16
    Bingo. Ryan is the guy we should be building the staff around.
  25. sweetmusicviola16
    But, but, but, we need to maintain payroll flexibility....
