  1. I agree that patience, to a certain degree is good. But, if yah snooze...yah lose ! Cody Allen would be a GREAT pickup. And at his age, a 2 or 3 year contract would be justified. Someone like him at the back end means pitchers like May, Rodgers and Reed can be used in high leverage situations. For years we've read endless stories about all these young flamethrowers in the minors being groomed for our bullpen. These guys are all still MIA. Go get a Cody Allen and continue to see Romero as a starter. Keuchel would be a good consolation prize. But I'm concerned about his drop in velo.
  2. The only problem with this scenario is that we don't have a SS. But as Twins Fan #34 pointed out, Texas could offer Andrus.
  3. They have money to spend. Whether they choose to sit down at the table and play is another question...
  4. Jim H. That's the point. ALL starting pitching is overpriced and overvalued. I think Nicksaviking makes a great point about a team that is VERY risk averse especially when it comes to pitching. E. Jax is just 29 years old and a 3 year deal, taking him to 32 and the Twins thru 2015 would be pretty good if/when the young guns Gibson, Meyer, Hendricks, May (Berrios)? are ready.
  5. Amen. They should be going after this guy. he's only 29 and a 3 year deal wouldn't be a huge risk. He's an innings eater who can strike a guy out once in awhile. And he ain't Nick Blackburn!!!
  6. If we traded both Willingham and Span, we would have Revere in CF and Parmalee in RF. We could come up with an affordable LF"er. But what if we had Shields/Hellickson...Minor/Hanson, Delgado/Teheran in our rotation? Throw in a FA like Edwin Jackson. SP: Shields, Minor, E. Jax, Diamond, (Baker, Gibson, Hendricks, Deduno). What a different rotation. One that could contend in the A/L/ Central.
  7. I'm all for trading Willingham to the Braves for pitching and Span to the Rays for pitching. Look at the lineups of the Rays, A's Braves...they are underwhelming. What those teams can do is PITCH. We could/should move BOTH Willingham and Span to load up in the primary area we are WEAK...Pitching.
