  1. Thanks for the trip down memory lane! Always fun.
  2. Anyone else intrigued by the quote: It seems as if the Twins aren’t fully committed to a particular deadline approach. Per Falvey, the club is unsurprisingly “focused more on the pitching side.” Beyond that, its moves may not unfold “in the most orthodox fashion,” he says.” Like, what...?
  3. If they are doing it right, yes. Easily.
  4. It proves what we already knew through the first 98 games prior - that this offense is good, but the pitching is an issue and needs help. This series shouldn't be some sort of surprise or "oh my, the Twins weakness has finally been exposed." No, we have known that since November of 2018.
  5. This is why we never re-upped on our season tickets 3 years ago.
  6. If this FO does nothing to improve this team by the deadline and puts them in a position to compete for a World Series, I will never go to Target Field again. And if, for some reason, I get sucked into going via free ticket or open bar tab, I will make sure they hear my voice and constant boos every damn inning. I may be one of thousands in attendance, but still.
  7. A bunch of frauds, really. He was on record saying that when the window opened, they would strike. Well, that window of opportunity has opened. Unreal, but truthfully, not surprising.
  8. No Schoop, which I am totally fine with. Goodness, hopefully Buxton is back soon.
  9. Right, but that is the kind of player I would easily deal Lewis for. I would also trade him for deGrom or Thor too. An ace level, controllable arm. That is the exact deal that you would include someone like Lewis or Kiriloff in. I am not saying you deal those guys for someone like Will Smith or Marcus Stroman, but these guys should not be off limits if the right call is made to the Twins.
  10. According to this article, the Twins have deemed Lewis, Kiriloff, and Graterol off limits. https://www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/mlb-trade-deadline-10-prospects-that-could-be-dealt-including-gems-from-the-yankees-astros-and-braves/
  11. So if the Twins were presented with a deal, from say the Reds for Castillo, would you be okay if they dealt either Lewis or Kiriloff for him? I sure as heck would.
  12. He has had a good month of July - but over the course of over 500 AB's at high A, he hasn't exactly impressed with his bat.
  13. And to think we traded a 1st round draft pick away for this guy! AND got Vance Worley! Man, Ben Revere isn't even in professional ball anymore.
  14. The Rockies are intriguing - someone brought them up on Twitter last night, particularly Scott Oberg. Controllable through 2022, so he would be someone I would be willing to go after.
  15. Again, this. It isn't like the Twins are going to be GIVING these prospects away. Good grief, people need to get over the whole "noooo, we can't trade our prospects. Never, ever, ever." Prospects are just that - prospects. They aren't proven, and more often than not they fail to live up to expectations. As highly as some people think of Lewis and Kiriloff, they aren't Mike Trout, or Bryce Harper, or Joe Mauer, or any of those "elite" guys. Good prospects, sure. But hardly someone you would look at and say "organization changer."
  16. Good grief, if those predictions come even close, that is a lot of activity over the next week. With that said - the A's trading for Stroman? That is so un-A's like. Just some real interesting predictions.
  17. I love when Magic Number Guy is out on Twitter; means good things!
