    The last impact FA chip we get to watch sign somewhere else is Josh Donaldson. We have said that we are interested.
  2. sweetmusicviola16
    Oh yes it can. Think if they pull a trade for David Price. Worse. Much worse.
  3. sweetmusicviola16
    I was wrong. I really thought they would get this one. Big fail.
  4. sweetmusicviola16
    Lets just stand pat. Because, well we're already pretty good right?
  5. sweetmusicviola16
    Absolutely. Why is Odo still on a one year deal? Coul;d it be cuz this org doesn't want to pay him 20-22 mil per season for the next 4 years which is looking like what the market is set at? I wouldn't be at all surprised to see Odorizzi traded by July 31st. I actually am expecting it.

    The skepticisim of this FO to acquire the SP's we need is quite warranted imo. They themselves are the ones who put out the notice of getting "impact" arms. This off season is now about half over and they have yet to come through. They have failed. The problem is we needed the same impact arm last off season and we got Martin Perez instead. They needed him still during the 2019 season. We got Sergio Romo and another injured RP instead. But until they acquire the fore mentioned impact arm I will continue to doubt them. Maybe they get it done with Ryu. Maybe they can trade Sano for Snell or someone like him. As I said I'm neither here nor there on not signing Keuchel at this point. With the need of this org he should have been signed in March however.
  7. sweetmusicviola16
    So what's the difference then since both Keuchel and Odo are 5 inning pitchers? They're both making the same money. Most everyone on here is all in to give Jake 18mil. fwiw I have no issue in passing on Keuchel. But this team needs some SP's badly. What's your answer?
  8. sweetmusicviola16
    The top FA choices left are Ryu, Wood, Nova, Hill and Bailey.
  9. sweetmusicviola16
    I see it being Pitt. I don't think Cin or Col trade until maybe mid-season. Or pay for Ryu.
  10. sweetmusicviola16
    Exactly. When we are bad we hear" don't spend money since it would be a waste anyway". Then when we are good its " well we're already competitive we need to save our flexibility so we can be good longer". Cases in point are last season not acquiring a TOR when Syndegaard could have been had. This reminds me of the 2'000,s. After 2002 Jim Thome was available for money. The Twins saw no need so watched him go to Philly since we were already competitive. Thome was again available after 2005, again we watched him go to CWS. Instead of getting the players that could put us over the top we are content to watch a competitive team. I'm all for being OK as long as possible sure. But those true chances of a WS are usually very short lived.

    I know these aren't blockbuster signings, but the Tigers will be better
  12. sweetmusicviola16
    and CJ Cron for the same? Dang Tigers.
  13. sweetmusicviola16
    Wait, Jonathon Schoop is not available. He's signing with Detroit today for 6.1mil
  14. sweetmusicviola16
    I get the impression that any more pen adds will be along this line. I also sense that payroll will be down, I'm thinking under 120mil.
  15. sweetmusicviola16
    Or they pay about 60% of his salary making him a 12mil a season guy for the team that gets him. Price flat out broke down the last half of the season. No way a team will pay 27mil for a potential #5 SP. I think Price ends up in SD in a bad contract swap for Wil Meyers.
  16. sweetmusicviola16
    Actually it was when we traded Johan Santana to the Mets for Carlos Gomez and a bunch of throw ins.
  17. sweetmusicviola16
    Are you saying that this deal is a steal? Why would the Mets take it then?
  18. sweetmusicviola16
    Look for a trade of Odo if we happen to be 5 GB on July 30th. Wouldn't that be a hoot?
  19. sweetmusicviola16
    Its been widely reported that the Mets aren't interested in trading Syndegaard and this offer I don't believe will change their minds. We aren't getting an Ace for COF Larnach and 3 throw ins imo. Would we be willing to take this deal if the tables were turned? Its probably time to swing the deal with the Pirates for Chris Archer. Maybe getting reunited with Odo would get his career back on track.
  20. sweetmusicviola16
    What will a Sano extension look like? He's looking at 6 mil this season through arb.
  21. sweetmusicviola16
    I think the bigger issue is whether Sano gets extended. As you mention he'll be an FA after 2021. But I say No to a trade to Texas as we would then have a gaping hole in the lineup. Unless he was part of a controlable TOP SP. Windows can shut in a hurry in MN.
  22. sweetmusicviola16
    My take is it's not a Ynoa for Littell trade. We have two trades not one. Ynoa for Garcia was not a good trade. At the time it was a mediocre move by the FO for a playoff push. Then it was almost like a panic move to get rid of Garcia. Which leads us to the Garcia for Littell trade which is an obvious good trade. We're glad to have Zack and lets hope he continues to be solid in 2020.
  23. sweetmusicviola16
    I don't think so. He's projected to get the 5.4 this season. He's on par with Noah who's projected to get 10mil this season. 15mil in year 3 would not be unexpected. I'd guess tvagle has that allocated about right.
  24. sweetmusicviola16
    I'd like to see Ryan Buchter be that signing.
  25. sweetmusicviola16
    I wouldn't argue against that at all, and the Twins would be getting a great deal based on the present markets. And if I'm his agent he doesn't sign for less than that 20mil AAV. In looking at my offer again I'd be willing to do 6/120 too w/o batting an eye. If he doesn't sign an extension he reaches FA at 28 y/o. If he pitches the next 3 seasons like the last 3 there is no doubt in my mind that he gets an 8 year deal for 300mil. Or more. If we want to extend him we are going to have to be very generous.
