Article: Rock Versus Hard Place

What would be the upper bounds of a contract people would be willing to sign Anibal Sanchez to? No "4/48 would be a great value" herp derp either. I mean realistically how many years/dollars would you give him? I don't even think it wouldn't be a bad idea for the Twins to throw a 5-6 year deal at Sanchez. Short of a miracle we aren't going to be .500 in 2013, so why not lock up some pretty good pitching long term to at least show people we are "serious" about competing next year? -
Oh yes we do.

No point in going crazy this summer about immediate fixes. All the assets we have now should be more valuable next year's trade deadline, which is when we'll hopefully be either making a run or going into full scale fire sale mode. Either way we are going to keep dragging along this season and net ourselves some good draft picks in all likelihood which can't hurt. I don't think this team is as far out of contending as many seem to think, but at some point we are going to have to refocus the organizations' pitching philosophy to fit Target Field. We need some top of the rotation talent to be competitive from FA and I'm confident the farm can fill in the holes well.
