  1. If I had to vote/guess today, I could absolutely see Canterino and Staumont playing major parts. The rest are all more hope to me (not that Canterino and Staumont aren’t). If any of the others contribute, great! But I could see most of them in another organization at some point too
  2. I love Julien. But getting a pitcher like Burnes would arguably give the Twins the best rotation in the American League, no? You take that opportunity once in a while right? Not saying I want to get rid of Julien. But if the twins can get Burnes, you do it
  3. I like Hoskins too. I can’t say I hate missing out on Stroman. His 2nd half from last year scares me a bit. Always liked him though
  4. If I am a gm, I take the best deal I can when trading a player away
  5. I’d be open to Montgomery too, it just seems that the trade route is the way they are headed. And if it isn’t Burnes, they will get something done. The only part that sucks is that, as a fan, we are all so used to what the offseason used to be like even 5 years ago, so it FEELS like they have run out of time already. That just isn’t the case.
  6. Don’t aim so low, and I don’t want personalities like Clevinger in this clubhouse
  7. I just can’t get behind this at all. I really like Castro as a utility type player, but he isn’t going to start over Wallner if Wallner is healthy
  8. I feel like they are waiting out Milwaukee and Corbin Burnes. It’s a perfect fit here for 2024.
  9. I’d be SHOCKED if Wallner were to go back to Saint Paul. SHOCKED. And why would a team carry a 4th outfielder that hits left handed when 2/3 of the outfield (Wallner and Kepler) also hit left handed? And Castro as the starting lf? Seriously?
  10. So I wasn’t able to make it to winter meltdown this year. I wanted to start a thread just for people to be able to respond and describe what the experience was like and what happened at the event. I imagine a fun time was had by all. Thanks for any comments/responses about the event in advance
  11. I love Julien too, he seems like a good kid and a hard worker. I think he is someone they can win with too
  12. I apologize if I misstated it, but he did say he was told that he would get a lot of work at 1b too, but getting grounders in (due to not being as able to growing up in Quebec) is a focus. He did close that thought by saying he would play anywhere on the field if it helps the team win.
  13. I don’t know about that. Julien can still play 2b, or Lee, or Martin, or Farmer. Polanco (if he isn’t traded) could also be 2b/1b/dh right? Julien said it too, it’s a lot to do with matchups.
  14. During the interview portion yesterday, Julien said he has been told he will be playing a lot of 1b this year. I don’t know what to make of that information, but I kind of like it.
  15. Just curious, if you have Castro AND Gordon on your opening day bench, who else do you have there? To me, it’s hard to find a roster spot for Gordon, but I could be wrong
  16. I’m too old for that now. How about we just have a good whiskey instead :)
  17. If he got Will Ferrell to go fishing with, I would agree :)
  18. See, the first thing I thought of Will Ferrell's commercials he did for Busch Light years ago, so I googled it. I was wrong, they were for Old Milwaukee, but still, that's where my head went. Just to share, they are funny to me...
  19. Maybe we owe each other a coke now? :)
  20. Twins sign Caleb Boushley to minor league deal. Had a cup of coffee up with the Brewers at the end of 2023, sounds like he is assigned to AAA St. Paul https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2024/01/twins-sign-caleb-boushley-to-minor-league-deal.html
  21. I'm not sure I can agree with saying that Cleveland "has enough offense." I mean, will there by 5 teams in baseball (Oakland not withstanding) that will have a worse lineup? I'm not certain. But their pitching should be really good once again.
  22. The Tigers run differential was -79, which equates to more of a 73 win season. Luck played a part. The Twins run differential was +119, which equates to more like a 94 win season. Luck also played a part. Getting Correa healthy (and not having plantar fascitis) along with Buxton able to play will arguably help more than any addition otherwise, no? Possibly add Miranda into that too. The Twins will be fine.
  23. Agreed on Witt. I could absolutely see him being the most talented player in the AL in 2024. Star is a good way of putting it.
