Article: Finding A Home For Justin Morneau
Purple Domino replied to John Bonnes's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
As much as I dont want to see Morneau go, all the Twins do is NOT trade guys...and then we bitch about it when the rumored prospects we could have had, dominate. Ellsbury, Lester, etc etc. The fact of the matter is this: Morneau HEALTHY at $14m dosent make us a playoff team. Neither does a bunch of crap prospects that would free up money. If i had to chose one of the two for the future, prospects is the way to go and more payroll space. The other options are to wait until next year and let Morneau become more of an asset. Of course, some team may whore themselves out come July and make an offer that is worth it, in which case...you take it. But he longer the Twins wait, the more desparate THEY become, and other teams take advantage...ie Santana. Trade Span, trade Morneau and trade Willingham (if the price is right, because I do like him as a RH in our lineup if we some how become competitive in the next 2 years....but still, if he's got value...stock up.
