Why would the Angels trade what they just signed. That the Angels signed him might be enough of a wed flag

What reliever, still active or alive does as you want that actually has pitched the 2-3 innings every other day.

If you are getting rid of Kepler then you ought to be moving on from the other 29 year olds on the team Will the 23 team be so bad that a tear down is warranted? I would say it depends on health, most of which are 29 or older

Trying to figure out if the FO traded away Urshela it would be reasonable to think they like Miranda at 3B.

I think the Twins should trade for all 3 players from the Yankees. The catch is there has to be a low level prospect for each year of a contract. If people think this current team is so bad they might as well rebuild through the minors

He would be a better option if he was still the player he was when he left. He is not

There are many medical things that are not as black and white as you think. The biggest one is timetable for things happening or deteriorating. It may be a matter of opinion. It may be something that has happened over the last year. But feel free to tell us what the Twins staff missed

We now can be certain that the Pohlads should have offered to build a Dior store. They might have even made their money back

The #Brewers also plan to keep shortstop Willy Adames. Quote Tweet Bob Nightengale @BNightengale · Dec 2 The #Brewers, who have been shopping Kolten Wong all winter, are now telling teams that they are keeping aces Corbin Burnes and Brandon Woodruff. They are unavailable in trades. 3:25 PM · Dec 2, 2022 One out of four fixes are not likely Eovaldi’s agent team may have misread the market by not accepting the QO. He might be worth the QO on a 2 year contract. Sorry but the return isn’t worth the cost. The competitive balance pick would be better used as trade bait Will Smith and Brad Hand. Well, they have Pagan, what do they need another reliever for? Relievers are always needed

He went to New York and tanked, He went to LA and did not recover He is not the first player that has tanked going to the Yankees. The hot take here is to complain on veterans

What Gordon needs to do is learn how to play defense. DRS and UZR does not like him

Holy F does one have to watch how one says things on this board. It is worse than politics At this point it is pointless to say anything. Have a nice holiday. Have a nice Christmas if you don’t like the previous term. If you don’t do the holidays, sorry about that

Gallo has hit a lot the last three years to the short right fielder. That position in theory ceased to exist. His batting average, in theory, should go up

Archer was an attempt to be able to pitch an entire season. For Buddy it was to prove the one season wasn’t a fluke. That is a far different situation. Nice try

At best Gallo is Nelson Cruz, at worst Park. One helped the team win, one did not. I did not think the concept was that hard to get

Is Gallo going to do a Correa and use the Twins for a springboard to a mega contract? That in a way is a win win for the Twins. They get known as a destination for the next contract being the big one. As long as they keep coming there will always be a good player doming to play

They know that fans come with winning baseball.

The agents and clubs have to work together again so neither party is going to throw much shade on the other. Contracts are negotiations, not a one and done bid. The Twins have a known bid. Nobody said they wouldn’t do higher. That point is lost. The contract ultimately negotiated is higher by far than any other SS contract. How did it get negotiated to that point. Granted logic flies out the window in free agency this year, but the final contract did not come out of nowhere. People also do not know if the Twins dropped out or were dropped. Carlos Correa said all the right words, interacted with team mates in all of the right ways. Still in this day and age it feels like you have to treat everyone like a used car salesman. Given an option there are players who want to be in certain areas. Ohtani mentioned it, Wheeler mentioned it, Mad Bum mentioned it It exists. Why would Correa want to move on from Minneapolis? He stated about when he walks into the Dior Store. There isn’t one here

Every year teams sign players to fill out the AAA roster. Nothing to get excited about, which rarely happens. No reason for anyone to complain, yet ……..

My point was about the process. Yes if the Twins offered 360 million blah blah blah. And more blah. At some point the negotiation stopped. It is pointless to try to explain it once again, you are seemingly unable to either understand my point or just unwilling to accept the possibility. 60 million over what was the highest shortstop contract is not foreseeable.

Oh come on yourself. The point I made still stands. Yes the money offered by the Twins was far less than San Francisco. It was not far less than the top contract signed this year by a similar player at that point in time. Which of the two is better is an opinion, not a fact. You don’t know if the Twins ever had a chance to match the offer or if negations were ended there. Because one or the other party ended there

That does not change that they took a team friendly deal rather than eventually the arbitration system. Even if free agency players have taken less money to be with a team

They all are team friendly deals. All are deals based on past work and future potential just like a free agent contract. Just like a free agent contract, not all worked out as planned. Just ask the most expensive AAA player Mr Dobnak

10 and 285 is one less year than Turner got. It is not far off the benchmark of that contract when many to most evaluations put Turner ahead of Correa. What is not known is what happened between offer and signing. No party is going to say anything that shows the other party in a bad light. They will all need each other again.

Most anybody sees through insincerity Explain the why Buxton, Pplanco, Kepler and Sanyo all signed team friendly deals
