  1. Who is next and what is the direction? Will they fill these open roles internally or will they go outside the organization?
  2. If they all turned into what is hoped for the Twins would win 110 games every year lol
  3. Yes, for essentially being a low on the ladder number 24 ranked prospect in a weak but top heavy Phillies system in ‘25 he’s become a very solid prospect. The dude just hits. Not necessarily a fast riser but yeah, by age 25 what will we be looking at? A 1B who hits .265-.275 with 20-25 homer power? If he can get to that it’s a win for sure!
  4. I was unaware. Both terrible. I wonder if any of the AAA options are any better? Can’t be much worse.
  5. Have you looked into any trade targets? I have looked around a bit and not found much as far as 1B/C upgrades unless they really swing for the fences.
  6. Ok, and Caratini is much better than that or no?
  7. True, but they’re not gonna just magically change everything for this offseason. For instance if a floor and cap are put in place and they don’t come to an agreement until spring training they’re not gonna force every team to spend a bunch of money to get to the floor in a matter of weeks. Just like a cap is not gonna force every team that is over to cut a bunch of guys. It would be gradually put into place so whatever happens it’s not gonna happen day 1. So I doubt this offseason will be drastically different from the last offseason a new CBA was negotiated. Also, a cap/floor would be the most drastic change so I don’t see it being something teams do nothing for ‘27 just because they don’t know what’s in store. Top FA’s will find teams. Teams will still target which FA’s fit what teams want. A new CBA won’t change things day 1. Therefore, the Twins need some hitters. Who will they be and who should they target?
  8. This is true only if your definition of a winning team is comparable to the ‘98 Yankees. If you have 4-5 guys with a 4 WAR or higher and another 4-5 guys with 2.5-4 WAR you’re talking about a 95-105 win team unless the rest of the roster is all replacement level. If you’re looking for that as the bar to contention then it may be time to become a dodgers fan.
  9. I would tend to agree. I’ve become disillusioned with Lewis but there’s not many options that are clear upgrades unless they go on the trade market. Might as well run him back out there and see. Maybe a platoon with Hendry Mendez does him some good?
  10. If you bring back Jeffers why not leave him at catcher?
  11. A good premise for sure. Which 2B are you going for and which of Lee/Culpepper/Houston do you trade to upgrade other areas?
  12. That too! He’s just too one dimensional and if you’re going out and paying for a hitter he better have the ability to hit 20 bombs and do something else well.
  13. I’d take a 2-3 WAR Kody Clemens at minimum salary than an expensive singles hitter at 2B. At this point Clemens is penciled in at 2B I believe and he’s earned it.
