    https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2025/07/astros-rumors-carlos-correa-trade-twins-nolan-arenado-cardinals.html To summarize, Nightengale reported that the Astros wanted the Twins to contribute $50 million plus an outfielder.... Ummmm......No.

    I'm assuming the Urias deal means the Astros have moved on. I'm not opposed to trading Correa, but I don't see it happening. He certainly has not played up to his contract, but he still has value, and I think determining what that value is and who pays how much makes a deal difficult.

    Recent memory? July 2, 2011. He ruined my summer. I remember it as if it was yesterday.

    That hurt
  5. LewFordLives
    It's even worse.... Chapman was only a RENTAL who then resigned with the Yankees in the off-season.

    No matter how bad the trade the Derek Falvey amen corner will always rush to his defense.

    Am I angry, yes. Am I shocked, no. This front office has shown us time and time again that they won't pay relievers. Three years from now we'll view this trade the same way we view the Pressley trade. Yet another lousy day to be a Twins fan. Thank you Mr. Falvey!

    I have a friend from Philly and he says the Twins got screwed.
  9. LewFordLives
    Especially since they won't have to add him to the 40-man for awhile.

    Kiersey, Gasper, and Castro due up.....murderer 's row

    Juuuust a bit outside

    I thought he only bought Dior

    Baby steps....

    That was a lose-lose for both sides. Maybe Gabe Gonzalez will be a contributor.

    Strikeout and double play. It's like groundhog day.
  16. LewFordLives
    Maybe a change of scenery will help. I wish him well. He always came off in interviews like a cool guy.

    Thanks for these great updates. What happened to Dobnak? At one point he was a serviceable MLB starter, and now he can't throw strikes in AAA. I know he had the finger injury, but it's been a few years now.

    I'm not losing sleep over anyone we gave up (although it would have been nice to have Cano), but no matter how you slice and dice it, it was a bad set of trades for the Twins. It was subtraction by addition. Mahle was a complete non-factor for the Twins because of injuries and Lopez was just plain bad.

    I generally agree with your premise of context, although I have never seen anything definitive as to why they felt they needed to move either Pressly or Berrios. This Twins FO clearly doesn't like to pay relievers, so I guess it wasn't a shock that they moved Pressly. In the case of Berrios, the rumor was that he was going to test the free-agent market no matter what. Yet, once he got to Toronto he signed an extension in the off-season, for an amount that I didn't think would have been a stretch for the Twins. How hard did the Twins try to extend him? Did he tell them he just didn't want to play here? We may never know all the details.

    Got it. I guess it does say that right in the title.
  21. LewFordLives
    No mention of the disastrous 2022 trade deadline? CES, Hajjar, and Steer for Tyler Mahle Yennier Cano and Cade Povich for Jorge Lopez Also Gipson-Long to the Tigers for Fulmer EDIT: I STAND CORRECTED. AS NOTED BELOW, THIS ARTICLE IS ABOUT WHEN THE TWINS WERE SELLERS.
  22. LewFordLives
    Now that's really depressing....
  23. LewFordLives
    Think of all you've been missing! This past year it's not the losses so much as the way they've been losing. It's unwatchable. The errors, the bad at-bats, the blown saves, the sloppy base running....
  24. LewFordLives
    Why exactly does Correa get $35 million per year?
  25. LewFordLives
    This team just doesn't do the little things right. It's why they are below 0.500.
