  1. I can see the thinking, based on other moves that the team has made in the past. For me, getting someone similar to Pablo (maybe an extra year of team control, probably another tier to get to) would be someone like Mitch Keller or Dylan Cease. I could very much be swayed into trying for Nestor Cortes as well, and he MIGHT be available if the Yankees do end up signing someone like Blake Snell. That said, I'd be all over adding Burnes for 2024 if he is attainable. Is there someone more in that range that you like?
  2. I could see extensions for a number of young guys if they are open to it. Julien comes to mind, as does Lewis and possibly Duran.
  3. If Milwaukee were to trade someone like Burnes, what do you think they would actually listen on?
  4. To each their own. Id prefer a minor league signing, like Jake Odorizzi, to add depth compared to Clevinger. And I am a fan of SWR
  5. I like the idea of SWR being our 7th starter a lot more than Clevinger being a part of the rotation
  6. 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
  7. 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
  8. 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
  9. If I am a gm, I take the best deal I can when trading a player away
  10. 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.
  11. Don’t aim so low, and I don’t want personalities like Clevinger in this clubhouse
  12. 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
  13. I feel like they are waiting out Milwaukee and Corbin Burnes. It’s a perfect fit here for 2024.
  14. 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?
  15. 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
  16. I love Julien too, he seems like a good kid and a hard worker. I think he is someone they can win with too
  17. 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.
  18. 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.
  19. 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.
  20. 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
  21. I’m too old for that now. How about we just have a good whiskey instead :)
  22. If he got Will Ferrell to go fishing with, I would agree :)
