  1. It's almost, like the article was stating, as much good for the Reds for not suppressing service time. Hopefully the kid has a great career. But Greene has done as much in the majors as Lewis has. I say, give it 3 years. Let each get some MLB experience and then see who made the better selection. If both pan out, I would still have drafted Lewis because he plays everyday.
  2. There is no way we get anywhere close to 1400 innings from this group. We are going to need 10 to 12 "starters" to get there. There are no work horses in this group because of age (young and old) or injury.
  3. At least Thorpe was the castoff. I don't think the Twins think he has what it takes anyway.
  4. No. No he does not have anything left. It's too bad the F.O. is putting together a very good lineup.... But no starting pitching. I hope we aren't looking back after this year is finished wondering what could have been. Hopefully we are doing enough by the trade deadline to add a couple pitchers.
  5. If Kirilloff and Larnach are hitting good, it would be a mistake to bat any of the above mentioned guys ahead of them. I think Larnach got the call-up too early and there was more to his injury or an injury we didn't hear about. Larnach and Kirilloff will be good MLB hitters.
  6. I think Alex is going to be a great hitter. Any trade including him better be amazing!
  7. I'm sure you could also throw him at 1st to spell Kirilloff.
  8. I like Story. I think he could have the same impact as DJ LeMahieu has had leaving Colorado. He's had a great Yankees career. I also wanted the Twins to sign DJ so maybe I'm over compensating hoping Story could be great too.
  9. I'd settle for a beer and I don't even drink beer. It seems that to many are hired and seem to have no common sense.
  10. 1000% correct. At the time, there were a couple questions, would you do the trade? For me, it was absolutely NO. I don't understand how you can trade Berrios, not sign any of the free agent pitching, and claim with a straight face that you're trying to compete.
  11. I don't think Toronto would do that trade!
  12. That was exactly my thought. Gray is a low #2 or a good#3.
  13. I would still rather have Berrios. Younger, more durable, and a good dude from all accounts.
  14. I agree. I think Sonny Gray would be great if we would have added a quality SP before the lockout, had Maeda still, and Gray was our #3 starter. It seems like we still have a long way to go, especially after trading Donaldson and Garver (and Cruz last year). We are now relying on a lot of people to step up offensively from poor recent performance or lack of experience.
  15. You can narrow that list down to Iglesias and Villar. The Twins may say they checked in with Correa and Story, but they won't be Twins.
  16. Best news of the off-season!
  17. A couple quotes from Falvey seem to dictate how it's going to go. He said they did all they could before they lockout... Maybe I missed it, did we do anything? And he stated his first call was to Taylor Rogers. I kind of wish the first call would have been to Oakland or Cincinnati. I would personally feel better knowing that was the first call after hearing him state they did all they should before the lockout.
  18. With expanded playoff's...we can really start building upon our postseason series losing streak! I don't want to be that negative, but how in the world are we going to win anything with no pitching. It doesn't matter how much we score. I hope the F.O. proves me wrong, but I have a feeling '22 ain't gunna be great.
  19. If I remember correctly, I believe Law also worked for Toronto for a while.
  20. Royce seems to have a good head on his shoulders. You stated that, "No player deserves to go through all this, but it's hard to think of anyone who could deserve it less." If you think about it that way, there probably isn't a player in the Twins system better equipped to deal with setbacks like this. Very few could look at all these situations and stay positive, stay focused, and stay on track like Royce. He will make it very easy to root for him and his success.
  21. During free agency it only would have taken $'s. Money it seems like we have unspent. We should be seeing prospects coming up starting by mid season. We might as well ride it out now and see if this next wave has what it takes.
  22. Maybe the guy can start hitting just a little bit and we could flip him for something later down the line. Hopefully, he is stashed at Triple A and we won't be talking about his lack of hitting during the season. If the F.O. is worried fans won't have someone to complain about because of a lack of hitting...just resign Andrelton Simmons.
  23. He sounds like a great kid. I hope he has A LOT of success as our S.S. for the next 10 years!
  24. That is a really sad question. It's about as depressing as everyone asking who you think is going to win the super bowl. My answer is, hopefully not the Bengals. I don't know if I can live in a world where the Bengals win a super bowl before the Vikings!
