There is a large world between a star and demoted to the minors. Maybe we explore that area until the Twins have someone who outperforms him.

The plausible story is that buyers don’t want the debt associated with the team and this is the easiest method for the Polhads to pay it down. If not sold before next season, I imagine we see Ryan and Lopez moved as well.

Yeah…very few of you are factoring in the money savings in this deal. Saving 1 mil this year and 4+ mil next year is great for the family.

Week in Review: Returning to Rock Bottom
chopper0080 replied to Nick Nelson's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
The crux of the issue is the Twins have failed to develop any position players who are consistently able to be productive at the MLB level. Maybe it is a talent thing or maybe it is a manager thing, but the Twins need to start figuring out which it is.- 39 replies

What Happens to the Twins Emerging Star?
chopper0080 replied to Ted Schwerzler 's topic in Twins Minor League Talk
I like opening up the DH spot for multiple players to use vs having a dedicated DH, especially when I am trying to evaluate and grow multiple young players. Keeping Sano takes that away. I also like the ability of putting young players at the positions they are most comfortable at. I would rather play Kirilloff at 1B and Miranda at 3B if that is where they are comfortable and project the best. That doesn't mean Miranda can't get some 1B reps and Kirilloff can't get some OF reps but having three spots for each of them to get at bats on the roster is valuable along with being able to keep Donaldson fresh.- 52 replies

40-man roster decisions, part 1: position players
chopper0080 commented on Squirrel's blog entry in In My Opinion
If the Twins don't re-sign Buxton then they are playing us all for suckers. He is pretty much the pivotal piece to indicate the Twins intentions over the next 5 years. If you are not going to pay your Berrios and Buxton prospects who actually produce at the major league level without having younger MLB producing players ready to replace them, what is the point?
