    I know i am a minority on this forum but i think our rotation is really good. Even the 7/8/9 SP we have are good. I want them to trade for and sign every single power arm there is out there for the bullpen. The Bullpen is the weakest part of the team. But we also need Rocco learn what a Long man is in the bullpen. So they can pitch 2-3 innings after he pulls the SP after 4-5 innings. Look at Houston this year and how they used the pitchers.

    Chris is broken, we don't need that man child on our roster. This would completely destroy any morale we have left for the team. He is a black hole.
  3. Byrdman
    We don't need a SS, just go with Farmer until Lewis is ready. Try and get Rodon but the only way we get him is if we stupidly overpay and give him the terrible 7 years he wants. He does not want to pitch for us, he wants to pitch for a contender. He is also no worth the 30mil a year.
  4. Byrdman
    With the cost of this signing you can pretty much say the Twins are not going to sign CC. Unless they cough up a 8yr/300mil contract. We all know they will not do that. I say sign Inglesis and find 3 shutdown bullpen arms. You could make a run at Rodon now, but he is going to be 30mil a year.
  5. Byrdman
    Well it has to work. There is virtually no one we can sign that are any better except for 2. Verlander and always injured Degrom. Rodon is not the answer. We have a good rotation with some good backups if injury happens. I want the Twins to sign/trade for some high profile shutdown bullpen arms. Literally everyone could be replaced.
  6. Byrdman
    Lewis will be a All-star SS for us. I am a million percent in on Lewis as the face of the team in two years. All of his injuries have been fluky and it sucks. He is so good.
  7. Byrdman
    Every pitcher is flakey and unpredictable. You question is the same for any player in 2023. Everyone has a bad year. Edwin is literally the best option for us in the pitchers market right now. Having Lopez and Diaz at the back end would be pretty awesome.
  8. Byrdman
    How about we stop making starting pitching articles and completely over haul our bullpen. Our starters are a good group if they can stay healthy. But the bullpen is not so much. Lets make a big splash and drop a 3yr/54mil signing for Edwin Diaz for one of the best closers in baseball.
  9. Byrdman
    How about this, We don't sign any of these guys. We drop 51mil/3yrs on Edwin Diaz to closeout games. Literally one of the best, if not the best, closer in baseball.
  10. Byrdman
    All of them are not any better than Sonny. If you feel we need one for depth do so otherwise our starters are a very solid bunch, despite what this forums says.
  11. Byrdman
    Nick Gordon will start the year as the SS until Lewis is ready. I said this last year as well. So lets hope it does the same and we get Correa again!
  12. Byrdman
    I am cheering for the Mariners in the AL and Mets in the NL. But I honestly don't care who goes to the world series as long as the Yankees and the Dodgers don't make it.
  13. Byrdman
    Sign and extend him. He is our starting 3B. There is virtually no one else. Miranda can play 3B when he Urshela needs a day off. Absolute no brainer here.
  14. Byrdman
    Cant win many games when you have a sub par closer, your starting 3 OF's and 3 backups are injured. Call up your explosive #1 prospect and he gets injured. Lose your #1 catcher, along with every pitcher hit the IL at least once. Your team will never mesh with this many injuries and players moving back and forth. We need a better conditioning/injury prevention group. We also had some bad luck on how some of these injuries took place. Just a rough year of injuries to recover from is all.
  15. Byrdman
    He has been great. He has thrown a lot of innings for us this year. He is just tired. As he has not thrown this many innings before. He will continue to get better each season as long as he can adjust. If we get knocked out the playoffs after this Guardians series this weekend. I would look to put him on a pitch limit or even skip a start for him to rest.
  16. Byrdman
    There is only one X factor for this team. That is the Bullpen. We need 4 arms and we need it now or we will not even make it to the playoffs. I have been screaming this for two months now. The rest of the team is fine. It is the bullpen. They are/will be the reason we do not make it to the playoffs.
  17. Byrdman
    Jose Godoy will just come up again if one is hurt. He will only play once every 3rd day or just the day games. We don't really have a lot in the minors but we can certainly find someone this off season or through a trade. If we make it to the playoffs, we really only need one catcher anyway with the off days.

    Sano Situation

    Byrdman commented on Doc Munson's blog entry in Fantasy GM

    Try and use him in a trade for a pitcher. He is done on this team. I don't want him to come back up to strike out 4 times a night. Like i always say for Sano, he swings so hard that he will never be consistent. Slow it down and simply do not swing at anything low and outside or high fastballs. But Sano can never learn or adapt and will just swing out of his shoes and continue to swing and miss at the same two located pitches every single time.

    They are catchers, they are playing pretty much at league level in the AL. There are only two that are sticking out higher, Kirk and Heim than most. We will never have another Joe Mauer. Jeffers and Sanchez are perfectly fine. Garver had one good year at the plate. Catchers are catchers they have never been great hitters. We do not have a catcher problem.
  20. Byrdman
    We need to be a million percent in for pitching. Pitching pitching and more pitching. I want us to get so many arms that we have to start playing them in the field. We can replace the whole bullpen except for Duran. That is how serious the Twins management should be right now. I don't understand why they have not made a trade yet. But if we must get a bat and only if the team says just take him for a bag of baseballs. Then I would like to get Josh Bell. But if we need to use the bag of baseballs for a pitcher then pass for pitching.
  21. Byrdman
    No no no no, We need 3-4 Bullpen arms. Cruz is done and would be a complete waste of a trade. Cruz is terrible in clutch situations and we don't need his leadership. This is Buxton's team and we don't need anyone to come in and mess with that. We need arms period! I cant be the only one that gets tired of seeing "we should trade for Cruz" every single week. Move on from the old man and watch the awesome young guys mash. I am really enjoying the young guys play. It is so exciting to see them get better every week.
  22. Byrdman
    Baltimore Orioles - Lopez, Tate, Perez Give them Steer and Enlow for the all three. If it is not enough throw in Yennifer Cano.
  23. Byrdman
    They should have made a trade last night after the loss. Lets be aggressive and improve this bullpen. If we don't do anything sooner than later we wont even make it to the playoffs.
  24. Byrdman
    Only trade rumors I want to see is Bullpen Arms. If we don't get 3-4 reliable bullpen arms we wont even make the playoffs. Cruz is done and absolutely no need for this team right now.
  25. Byrdman
    I rather we just trade for about 4 effective bullpen arms. We don't need a 1B or a Catcher. We need Pitching with a big ol PERIOD.
