    #1. The Mets would gladly trade both of those pitchers. But they probably want more MLB ready players. I go back and forth about it but probably too much to give up for .5 yrs. of a starter and 1.5 of a reliever. #2. Gunnar is going nowhere and SS is the one spot that is in good shape in the Twins system. Not trading him at a low point. #3. For 1 1/2 years of a 1B. Another lefty bat, really? Will take more to get Garcia and clogs the roster even further. 1b is not currently a big problem.

    They will appropriately leave him off the 40-man roster. Anyone on the 40-man will be unable to play in the minors during the impending MLB strike next spring. More than many others, he needs to play baseball.

    The Twins Daily writer clearly cannot read. Passan clearly said "teams look at what the Twins are asking for to acquire Duran or Jax -- at least two top-100-caliber prospects". Passan says 2 top-100 prospects for Duran OR Jax. Not for a package of both.

    Were they supposed to fly him to Seattle before sending him to AAA? Instead they flew him to Omaha and he was available to play on Thursday. There is value in assembling a talented team at AAA and in McCusker getting at-bats after getting 6 at-bats during his 9 games in the MLB roster.

    Damn Gregg! Well put. I want him to be a baseball pariah forever.

    Is it possible to get a translation of what and when SWR had for velocity?? 2025, 2024, mid-90's, 93.1, 92.5...?

    Triston Casas was not traded for a quality pitcher for the same reason that Pete Alonzo is still waiting for a free-agent contract. The production difference is not worth the asking costs in dollars or players. Casas sounds a lot like a left-handed Jose Miranda, though a little more consistent.

    This more satirical than anything RandBall has ever written.

    The mythology around Torri and Morneau makes for a good story but the reality is different. Neither one bounced up and down several times. They each had one decently long stretch stretch in MLB, was sent down once for a stretch and was then back up for good. You can actually look it up.

    You know Cal Ripken? He's the guy who comes to work when he has the flu and gets everyone else sick but gets a gold star for just showing up.

    In each case, it seems the Twins are giving way too much or literally nothing for the return. Keoni Cavaco for Mark Canha? Caleb Boushley for Ryan Pressley? Only if the PTBNL is a top 15 prospect. Rengifo for Keaschall +? It would be theft if the Angels got Keashall by himself. Please have some sense of reality in these scenarios.

    Never invest a lot of trade capital in a reliever.

    How does a former Umpire get away with saying that the umpires actually call an egg-shaped strike zone? My mind wanted to explode on that one!
