  1. Mahle trade will battle with the Sam Dyson trade for worst trade values in how things worked out. Let's see, both pitchers get injured soon after joining team. We got 12 games, 11 innings and a 7.15 era from Dyson and 9 starts split over 2 years from Mahle. Factoring in we traded Steer and Encarnacion-Strand for Mahle I think Mahle wins as the worst trade.
  2. Given the team's payroll limitations the pool of players Lee would be traded for should be very limited to a similar top pitching prospect with several years of team control remaining and a deal that would have to really blow us away. So doubtful such a deal would present itself and I think it highly unlikely but would not 100% rule it out. Many of our top players - Correa, Buxton, Lewis and Kiriiloff have a significant history of injuries. Knock on wood - Lee has not yet plus he has value as a switch-hitter. Even Arraez has issues with his knees but he also had played a couple of years and is Arb 3 eligible in 2024 with an estimated salary of $12M if we had kept him. We still have several cheap years of Lee ahead of us.
  3. Great deal for Pagan! No way we the Twins going to pay that and I don't blame them. Too bad we don't get compensatory picks for all Free Agents leaving like in the NFL - just the qualifying offer ones - because we are losing them fast this year and for big deals.
  4. Well, I try to be optimistic but I think that about does it for this one. Come back tomorrow and don't let the leadoff hitter get on each inning.
  5. Maybe Javier is getting cold with this long inning...
  6. I am enjoying the broadcast team - particularly Adam Wainwright's observations. Seems a lot fresher and covering new material than the typical broadcast group.
  7. If I remember correctly from Berrios time with the Twins - he had a tendency to start strong and then lose it in the 5th or 6th inning - Toronto may have a quick hook with him.
  8. Starting out like yesterday's game - Kirilloff doesn't catch a pop-up
  9. Tampa Bay looks horrible - the Twins never played this bad in the 18 game losing streak. They can take over the postseason loser mantle. They are on a streak of not having scored a run in over 30+ innings. This is also the worse fielding I have seen all year.
  10. It's the Lopez and Lewis show so far. Both coming up big.
  11. Like their offense but we are hurting at defense at 2nd and 3rd with this lineup
  12. Let's not try to match Tampa Bay's effort today - they have kicked the ball around each inning
  13. Nice inning by Pablo - pitching around the circus in the field
  14. Well, off to a rousing start - let's get the misplays out of the way
  15. Seems like Kepler should have caught that one - tough play for Kirilloff
  16. I like it - bullpen looks as solid as it's been all year! Let's go!!
  17. Varland looks pretty darn good out of the pen.
