    I agree on Wallner, Mr. Chief, but if he continues to wallow at the plate he should be optioned out or traded. He can't field, so he needs to be able to hit to keep his roster spot. Early days, but tacked on to last year it is depressing. I thought he was going to be a total stud when he first came up.

    Cross posted from the other Spring Training thread, but Roden sure seems to want the job, and Wallner and Outman do not, so far. I would be delighted to see Roden and ERod make the MLB roster instead of Wallner and Outman if these performances continue....
  3. SteveLV
    Roden wants to make the team. Apparently Wallner does not. O for the Spring so far with tons of K's (but none today) I am perfectly fine with Outman and Wallner being off the MLB roster. Substitute ERod and Roden.

    I wonder what it would take to get Griffin from the Pirates? Walker Jenkins plus Rojas? More? Move either Culpepper ultimately to 3B, Lewis to 1B if he gets his hitting back on track, Lee is the utility IF.

    JBK, in the Twins bullpen, is there a difference?
  6. SteveLV
    My reaction to the headline: "I bet they are!".
  7. SteveLV
    This pretty much torpedoes any chance for the Twins to win the AL Central. With Skubal and Valdez, Tigers must be heavy favorites. Anything can happen, but this is a major difference maker. Simply shocked our boy Tom did not offer this deal! :)
  8. SteveLV
    rather than Framber Valdez. I knew we were going to use that open spot for a pitcher, and it is a toss up which might be more effective. :) Career ERA of 9 over 91 innings. Good arm, just no control, and no options. Rather have Lawerson back quite frankly....
  9. SteveLV
    Designated for assignment by Angels after they picked him up in November. We certainly saw worse bullpen innings than he briefly provided last year......Solid in AAA.
  10. SteveLV
    GM replaced, still dumpster diving I see......

    There were 2 political comments early in the thread. This website is terrific, and I would hate for it to descend into something like Canus Hoopus for the Wolves. Yech.
  12. SteveLV
    Shocking announcement, bizarre timing. Note: PLEASE no politics here guys. Let's talk Twins and MLB Baseball. If we go down the politics rabbit hole it will ruin the discussions. A lot of hot opinions on all sides of these political issues....

    Don't like that SD trade. Why would the Twins want to take back that Pivetta contract? Maybe a 3-way where another team takes him and the Twins get more young, cheap, controllable players??? Also don't want the 23 year old "prospect" who can't hit in AA.
  14. SteveLV
    If San Fran does not want to trade Eldridge, I don't see anything in the Giants farm that works for Ryan. They have a 44th ranked SS prospect who is 18 in Rookie ball and nothing else too exciting. Baltimore seems highly unlikely to move Basallo right after signing him to long extension to lock up all his arbitration years. Absent Basallo, nothing else in their farm moves the needle much, even though they do need SP. Yankees and BoSox may still be looking for SP. Who else?
  15. SteveLV
    15 games under .500. Difficult to argue with that. Vegas has them at 17 games under.
  16. SteveLV
    Litany of Twins who shined and then crashed. How about Jose Miranda for cripes sake? Pitchers figure these guys out and they apparently can't adjust and it is over.
  17. SteveLV
    I liked Julien's swing, until it went bad. I never like Julien's glove. Uggh. Flyer RHRP and some $. $ always good to this ownership group. Stacking the Benjamins after trading journeyman C yesterday, too.
  18. SteveLV
    I wonder where Gonzalez would fall in this ranking. Obviously outside top 100, but he sure seems to have a great stick.
  19. SteveLV
    So does that mean if Ryan has a decent year, and both sides decline the mutual option, he is then a FA in 2027? I am confused and concerned......
  20. SteveLV
    Absolute Gentleman. Ran into him at the Cabela's parking lot about 10 years ago and he took the time to chat ball with me for about 10 minutes. Could not have been nicer. Congratulations, Sir.
  21. SteveLV
    Isn't it also possible that the very top players can select which organizations they want to sign a deal with? It certainly seems reasonable a young man might be more interested in signing with the Yankees than the Twins if the money is similar. One organization is a winner, the other is not.
  22. SteveLV
    So the tippy top prospect is not even in the top 30, ranked 34? Can't say this is impressive at face value. Hope they hit the lottery on a couple of these young men!
  23. SteveLV
    Jeffers trade incoming is the only thing that makes sense. If not, very puzzling way to spend limited resources.....Does he have any connections with Shelton or the coaching staff????
  24. SteveLV
    $30M is deferred. Rest is all paid per contract year and fully guaranteed, of course. They don't care. They are swimming in money.
  25. SteveLV
    I am glad this happened. This "game" is so rigged it is not even funny now. The best FA goes to the returning World Champs who are outspending everyone and embarrassing the concept of competitiveness. 2027's work stoppage cannot come fast enough. Our collective angst over the 25th and 26th spots on a lousy roster are laughable in the context of this move. Carry on.
