    Absolutely - I would love to go get someone like Smith (with the chance of re-signing him in the off-season) and then a controllable reliever for the next few seasons.
  2. SpicyGarvSauce
    A little late to the party, maybe, on this...but looking around the internet, I came across a SF Giants website that was putting together trade proposals with contenders, etc. Here are some of their proposed deals... To Twins: LHP Will Smith To Giants: SS Wander Javier, RHP Jhoan Duran, 1B/OF Brent Rooker To Twins: LHP Madison Bumgarner, RHP Nick Vincent To Giants: RHP Brusdar Graterol, 2B Yunior Severino, C Ryan Jeffers IMO, that is way too much for Will Smith and probably an okay price for Bumgarner & Vincent...? Thoughts?
  3. SpicyGarvSauce
    Exactly - there is no need to go get one or the other. The Twins need help in their rotation & bullpen - whether it is MadBum and/or Will Smith that offer that help, fine. But they need help.
  4. SpicyGarvSauce
    I am okay with getting a rental like Smith - but man, I would love for the FO to also invest in the future and get a controllable reliever beyond 2019; much like the Astros did with Pressly. Give up something to get something.
  5. SpicyGarvSauce
    Can we all agree that getting Bumgarner would be worth it just for the clubhouse celebration/beer drinking after the Twins win the World Series?
  6. SpicyGarvSauce
    Sure - but the price has to be right. Twins cannot just give Sano away.
  7. SpicyGarvSauce
    Oh, this definitely passes the "eye test" as well. Stats are a good way to just quantify this.
  8. SpicyGarvSauce
    Particularly in one AB that I recall, he was missing low 90's fastballs...badly. Like, it wasn't like he was facing Chapman or Hicks or anyone that was throwing upper 90's. He just had no absolute idea at the plate last night.
  9. SpicyGarvSauce
    And he struggled against fastballs in the zone - like, couldn't even make contact struggled.
  10. SpicyGarvSauce
    He, like a lot of Twins hitters last night, chased a ton of balls outside of the K zone last night. Granted, that strike zone last night was brutal according to the FSN K zone.
  11. SpicyGarvSauce
    Put Parker on the DL, and call up Smeltzer.
  12. SpicyGarvSauce
    Great way to increase Cave's trade value. This FO is brilliant.
  13. SpicyGarvSauce
    Sign me up for Amir Garrett.
  14. SpicyGarvSauce
    How to bunt... 1) Don't. 2) Hit a dinger.
  15. SpicyGarvSauce
    Got lit up in his last start against TEX. There is reason for optimism!
  16. SpicyGarvSauce
    Without looking too much into it, wouldn't this be similar to the Twins moving Pressly last season? A damn good reliever that is under team control...you would think it would require a similar package, right?
  17. SpicyGarvSauce
    Harper, Duffey, May, and Rogers were all available last night and hadn't been used much over the last few days. Those guys, right now, are all better options than Parker IMO. Just because someone has experience in high leverage situations doesn't mean they are the right person to go with.
  18. SpicyGarvSauce
    On a similar note, related to Twins apparel, I went to the game last night and could not believe one of the clothing stands wanted $109 for a Majestic Twins hooded sweatshirt. $109 is insane.
  19. SpicyGarvSauce
    Using Blake Parker is questionable in general, but using him in high leverage situations (like last night's game, down 1-0 in the 9th) is unjustifiable IMO. The guy isn't good, and it again showed last night.
  20. SpicyGarvSauce
    Good points. I would think that the Twins may look at bringing back Gibson and/or Odorizzi for the 2020 season, as there is not a ton of immediate help waiting in AAA. Some of the guys that could be under consideration just have not performed well enough this season, to this point, to be looked at seriously. Plus, Perez is still a wild card. While he has been a nice surprise, I think treading lightly with expectations of him is the smart route to take.
