    Chicago now has 2 catching prospects. Have they soured on Quero?

    The first 9 years Gardy’s teams averaged 89 wins a season, which is more than decent. From 2011 his teams averaged 66 wins. Did Grady suddenly become a bad manager or was the detriment things like Scott Diamond rather than Johan Santana was your ace?

    Like every other club they have made moves that worked out well and others that have not. Who is pretending the Twins are good at it? Under Baldelli they have a .525 win %. Not great, not bad.

    May the Twins continue to ignore the suggestions and prognostications of the fan bloggers in this scenario.

    Hajjar was traded with another prospect for Brown. Like Steer and CES Brown had a promising year last year and a not so good second year. Hajjar was moved to the bullpen and did not have a good year so he was available. With his status as a high draft pick, being eft handed and breathing somebody was going to take a chance on him

    There are a lot of hoes here some days

    Opening day 25 would be the under. By opening day 28 I would say half will not be here if the club is sold

    Mr Lenz’s career as a talent evaluator either just hit a speed bump, or a crater of a pothole. Nobody picked his selections

    Hajjar was selected by the Pirates from Cleveland

    If you are going to be hopeful for a trade with the A’s one needs to think bigger. The A’s seem to like lottery tickets in trades. Any four Fort Meyers players from the ones that cost less than a million to sign, Vazquez and Paddack for Shea Multiple problems solved.

    It is questionable whether or not the Twins believe Helman can be the right hand bat off the bench. The answer will be if the Twins take someone like Franklin if available. Considering the moves made last year, they probably will punch the LHP lottery ticket for a reliever. They might even grab a couple to improve their chance of winning

    Christian Javier would be the reason not to sign an extension to pitchers. After signing his ERA went up to 4.58. The next year is TJ. Now this year will be the rehab and regain year.

    It is also better off if other people were not thin skinned

    When Pohlad bought the Twins there was an article about depreciating the players. You could depreciate the contracts you have when you purchase, but not the new ones. For a new owner there is more money to be made by keeping the player than having a bare cupboard for the new player

    I am not paid.

    Grichuk had a late career resurgences after years of so so performance. Expect regression. He is probably wanting to be paid like a 2 war player in their prime. I don’t think anyone will give him that contract. A 4 million contract would be a reasonable expectation.

    By way of a refresher García was a beloved leader? Littel bullpen success. The link provided doesn’t show a record of that. Humor or more poor writing? That would be debatable. Ynia i the type of reclamation project the Twins feel necessary They probably do not see anticipate much better progress out of their bullpen arms or last year’s rookie starters

    Player A coming off a 2WAR season.. Player B is coming off a 0.2 WAR season. Which player do you sign ?

    There is a video clip of Morrison singing “we want the world and we want it now” I used to be able to post for these people wanting everything to happen within weeks of the World Series ending The fun police must not have liked that because I can’t post a link

    The sarcasm was not aimed at you

    The call for lower concession prices is not a new one. Alcohol prices being high is usually a deterrent to excessive consumption. I recall during the dome days people complaining about the quality of the dome dogs. It will always be something

    Although in the Twin Cities area the weather resembles March it is still only December.

    One good week in the playoffs wipes out years of replacement level play.
  24. old nurse
    I don’t think they trust Varland. They like Jeffers bat but would appear to doubt that he could be a full time catcher. If there is an exodus of talent through trades off the roster of controlable players that will be the answer. To the question

    So the trade Vazquez bandwagon rolls on. Caratini is signed for 2 years with Houston. Houston signed him because they needed a catcher. They do have an emergency catcher but if they really liked him as a catcher they would not have signed Caratini. Grandal was mentioned. Last season he was a part time player, the 2 years before that he did not hit well nor was that great behind the plate. McCann has hit better than Vazquez but has not been a half time catcher in a long time. Without an adequate replacement there wouldn’t be a trading of Vazquez unless there is a blockbuster of a deal. The top catching prospects haven’t played a half season at AAA, So they might not be ready for major league quite yet. Rushing is blocked as a catcher in LA. You have to give something to get something. Keashall is a similarly ranked prospect. If the team is not going to sign Castro to an extension his value might not get any higher by waiting. Thet might could find a team that undervalues a pitcher that the Twins like.
