    The time to learn position flexibility is when the games don't count. Even experienced outfielders run into each other.
  2. PseudoSABR
    Yes, but I threw that in that for sarcasm... Would you rather have Cueto at a higher AAV? This feels pretty low risk at 3.5, given the affordable two-year deal if he bounces back.
  3. PseudoSABR
    What is it? The injuries? Are you suggesting you wouldn't trade Meadows for him?
  4. PseudoSABR
    As long as you're not benching the lineup, yes. Prior to this move, prediction sites have us as a competitive team.
  5. PseudoSABR
    Oh I meant Pujols. He was at least 30 as a rookie.

    There will be plenty of arms available at the deadline (think A's,O's,Red's,Marlins); this buys time to get there, to get our upper minor arms ready, and for those arms to rebuild value in anticipation of trade. But this will be it for the offseason.

    I'm upset that a 60 year old is still collecting MLB salary.
  8. PseudoSABR
    Nope.
  9. PseudoSABR
    There's something to be said about him transitioning to the bullpen years ago. Good luck Thorpe! He'll get a chance somewhere.

    This is fine. Another Bundy like deal. It buys time for our top prospects at worst (depending the results), and at best it turns into a great one year deal on the relative cheap. I think this demonstrates once again, that the Twins FO really believes in the upcoming young arms (or their capacity to rebuild trade value), a dangerous proposition which this move helps guards against for the pursuit of 2022 playoffs.
  11. PseudoSABR
    He's joking before anyone tries to murder him.
  12. PseudoSABR
    It's that our top prospects have diminished value now. Other teams don't necessarily have that problem.
  13. PseudoSABR
    I think waiting until the deadline not only presents more clarity on the youngsters, it helps our top prospects rebuild value, whom all slid during the last year.

    Thanks for this, but there were many interesting things from watching the whole thing. We've seen the quotes were C4 insinuates that he wants to invest in the Twins longterm, but I encourage everyone to watch just after the 21:00 minute, in response to a pointed question on the subject, Falvey responds, and his take is basically we've got this guy, we'll deal with keeping him down the road; and Carlos' response, just after, is pretty akin. Also, it's clear Rocco is a huge recruiting asset. And I didn't realize how articulate and measured Scott Boras is; an impressive dude.
  15. PseudoSABR
    Does anyone have a link to the entire presser?
  16. PseudoSABR
    A bunch of guys are going to rotate through 1b/Dh/LF/C/3B. Potential for Sano/Kirilloff/Rooker, Sano/Sanchez/Arreaz, Kirilloff/Lanarch/Rooker/Miranda?, Sanchez/Jeffers/??, Urshela/Arreaz/Miranda to get many hundreds of at bats. Maybe not stars at the options, but quality depth, a lots of layers of protection from injury.
  17. PseudoSABR
    Science!
  18. PseudoSABR
    I'm wondering if the A's might be thinking they'll get better value at the deadline when teams are more desperate.
  19. PseudoSABR
    Mlbtraderumors always puts out quality work and they even continually update their articles; it's a testament to what could have been a click-hole site given the subject matter.
  20. PseudoSABR
    They'll give him every opportunity to start. See, e.g., Lewis Thorpe who the team converted to a reliever in his last option year.
  21. PseudoSABR
    I wonder if we could get him fairly cheap in terms of assets if we took on one of the Padres bad contracts.
  22. PseudoSABR
    https://blogs.fangraphs.com/carlos-correa-opts-for-options-chooses-minnesota/ Fangraphs with their take; safe to say they like it for the Twins.
  23. PseudoSABR
    We lose our third highest pick.
  24. PseudoSABR
    I wish people would stop making this an issue. 1) If he opts out, it means he had a fantastic season. 2) Lewis and Martin need more reps at SS to see if they can stick; but their bats are probably close to ready now. This buys them both at least one season to prove they can play the position. 3) We aren't prohibited from resigning him.
  25. PseudoSABR
    This is how you build an actual quality bullpen with depth. You take your marginal starters and convert them sooner rather than later. Given the starting depth in the high minors, it's time to give these guys a chance in the pen.
