    Anybody want to trade a signed Terry Felton rookie card for a signed Theo Anderson arbitration championship belt?
  2. Twins GFP
    I was hoping to read about some team poaching our 3B coach Tommy Watkins... Just replace him with a windmill.

    Duran is a competent reliever, but I don't think he is dominant. Sands numbers were better than Duran basically across the board. Duran throws heat, but the reults don't really live up to the hype. This BP isn't even the best in the division, much less all of MLB

    Two words for this section: Health and Hope Can Buxton stay healthy? Hoping Wallner and Larnach maintain and do not regress (again). Considering how the DH is currently used, using individual players as a measuring stick does not make a lot of sense.

    Carlos is probably asking the same question the rest of us are thinking: Will the Vikings put the franchise tag on Sam Darnold?

    I saw this headline and thought it was a Randball Stu article...

    Yeah... Not sure why you are lumping Kepler in with Sano (clickbait?). Sano's issues are well documented: unwilling to to put the work in, weight issues, injuries compounded by both of those things. Management not reading the tea leaves and bouncing him around on the field did not help. For some reason many people on this site have a lot of hate for Kepler. Not sure why. Fantastic defense, good-enough offense, 10 years with the team. Every team needs players like this.

    I actually laughed when I read this... Stop bringing logic to an emotional argument.🙂

    So basically 3rd in infielders in a weak division. OF will probably not be much better. Ditto with RP. SP should be better... How does anyone consider this team (as is) even a borderline playoff team?
  10. Twins GFP
    100% spin
  11. Twins GFP
    Again... stop bringing logic to an emotional argument.

    Stop bringing facts and logic to an emotional argument

    This is not a dollar-by-dollar comparison. Yearly income/loss, secondary income from MLB, owner revenue sharing, there are a lot of dollars unaccounted for here. It is also very easy in hindsight to go back and cherry pick investments to bolster this argument. For the majority of baseball owners, the issue is status as much as money. Regardless of anything you hear, owners make money (both short term and long term) on these teams. The perception status of owning a team, bringing a championship and being loved by millions of people is real.

    I realize that there are some throwaway lines in articles like this, but to say that the Twins have a crowded outfield at the MLB level that may impede Walker Jenkins is a ludicrous statement. No current OF4, Larnach and Wallner still needing to prove they can stick and Buxton's health issues... As excited as we all are for Jenkins, if his MLB debut is before August, the MLB team is having serious problems. The clock is ticking on Julien and Martin. Slow starts from Festa, Matthews, Lee, Wallner, Miranda, possibly even Lewis, could open up a floodgate of new faces by late June.

    If this is true, and a sale of the team is relatively close, I will be willing to give the team a small mulligan for this offseason and possibly this entire season. This transition is the main reason why this team is stuck in the mud, unwilling to raise payroll or seek a complete rebuild. Fan friendly or not, a sale means the Twins can actually move forward.
  16. Twins GFP
    Sorry, but any other year and this move is barely a blip on the radar. The Twins needed another system catcher and they got one for nothing. At least this move gives us something to talk about.
  17. Twins GFP
    If Wessel replaces Gladden on the radio, I am 100% all in.
  18. Twins GFP
    I stopped reading when you suggested trading a young, reliable starting catcher for a reliever. Amazing some of the thought processes out there.
  19. Twins GFP
    @Nick Nelson An explanation is probably needed as to why Buxton and Castro were omitted entirely from your list. Maybe a follow up article on the who missed and why. Personally for me: Correa is too low and the relievers are too high. Thanks for the rundown.
  20. Twins GFP
    Crow today, wait 10 years to see results... Not complaining, just reality.
  21. Twins GFP
    Matthews and Larnach both do not belong in this quadrant, they belong lower. The Twins really don't yet know what they have with Matthews, considering how quickly they were forced to rush him to the majors. His prospect value is not extremely high... Larnach has been underwhelming until this past season. His value is not high yet... Neither of these two should be above Correa, SWR, or Jeffers.
  22. Twins GFP
    I 100% agree with you at this point. However, I do not recall seeing anything public about the Twins 2025 intentions with him this offseason.
  23. Twins GFP
    How many other teams are currently in the publicly announced payroll jail the Twins are in?
  24. Twins GFP
    In a perfect world, having 4A depth at SP is ideal. Currently (no trades), they are arguably sitting with 2 ready guys in AAA, possibly three depending on where they see Varland. They won't spend money on a SP guy like this to lounge around. If they trade Paddack, an argument can be made to sign him as a SP. However, I don't believe he will move the needle with the team having cheaper equivalent options in MiLB. But it still comes back to cost. The argument is somewhat moot if they can sign him for $2-3m, but he will probably go for more.

    I will take the drawings over some of the stuff being churned out right now. This article would have been perfect if you had posted artistic examples.
