  1. 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.
  2. If you really believe this team is more talented with Correa off the roster, we can agree to disagree.
  3. And if we are being honest, the only way the Twins have a chance to be competitive is by being sold. That is the only benefit of the Correa trade.
  4. 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.
  5. Headline tomorrow. In Duran trade, Twins Choose Savings Over Substance.
  6. 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.
  7. Brewers have an identity, the Twins don’t. Milwaukee is an acts all market, Twins just act like Minneapolis is.
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. 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?
