    Kepler is the guy I would be dangling in trade talks. His value is high currently and the Twins likely wouldn't miss him too terribly.
  2. DaveW
    Must win game.

    but then you suddenly have a huge issue in the OF, either you play Robinson who is garbage at the plate, or you play Arcia in LF with Hunter in RF and Rosario who is average at best in CF, recipe for disaster during a run for the playoffs IMO. If buxton was proven ready or something it would be a different story.

    Neither of those things should happen until the off season though, agreed? Or if the Twins suddenly lose the next 8 games or something.
  6. DaveW
    That's pretty much what the Twins are most other teams do , the reality is it's really really hard to stick at CF, SS or C when moving up the org ranks.

    I don't think Nunez is a good player, but I don't understand why you even have him on the roster if you continually refuse to use his as a PH for Suzuki or Santana. Nunez isn't good in the field, so if he isn't good enough to use as a PH there really is no reason for him to be wasting a spot on the major league roster.

    Kemp? No thanks.
  9. DaveW
    Agreed, I think you can just go get a rental type like AJ now for catcher and then step back and address the problem long term during the off-season.

    They still have Wil Myers and Matt Kemp under contract/control for another 4 seasons. I don't think Arcia is an upgrade over either one (especially Myers) and I don't see how the Padres would be able to trade Kemp and his contract anyways.
  11. DaveW
    Where would the Padres play Arcia? Don't they already have like 65 corner OF types? Many of which who are owed a good chunk of change?

    Jake Reed is a long ways from being any sort of major league player, much less a "lights out set up guy", he is getting shelled in AA and his stats are significantly down across the board. If Tonkin is going to get DFAed eventually anyways, why would the A's give up an asset for him?
  13. DaveW
    Come on, you are smarter then this. There is 0% chance of that trade happening, you are giving up Santana, who has plenty of questions on whether he will ever be a ML regular, Tonkin, who has done zilch in his numerous call ups to the big and Jake Reed, a relief pitcher (prospect) who probably doesn't crack the A's top 25 and is currently rocking a 5.87 ERA in AA this year. There is no reason for the A's to make that trade.

    Sweet Jinx bro!

    Duensing has looked solid as of late, I wouldn't trust him in a 3-2 game in the 8th or prob even the 7th, but him keeping this up somehow would go a long ways in to help stabilizing the middle relief. With Rourke up and May in the pen, I am of the mind that getting a solid and reliable 8th inning guy like Benoit would make me feel pretty damn good about this pen.

    I thought for sure it was just an average SF, I will certainly take it though!
  18. DaveW
    Man, they have been battle their tails off at the plate this inning. Gray was clearly flustered after the Sano at bat and plouffe makes him pay!
  19. DaveW
    Sano, wow!
  20. DaveW
    Santana looking much better than last week
  21. DaveW
    Reminds me of a time the Twins had another 4 WAR player they decided to trade...his name was Denard Span and that deal has killed the Twins thus far. I wouldn't be in a rush to trade a valuable player like Plouffe unless you get something truly special and can't miss in return. 3 WAR a year catcher would make sense.
  22. DaveW
    They can all meet at Frankie Rodriguezs bar for a drink.
  23. DaveW
    Bryant comes to mind.
  24. DaveW
    His pitch selection has been phenomanal thus far. That at bat in the 9th was great.
  25. DaveW
    That's a little over the top.
