    For all the reasons listed by others, I'm in at 3yr/$45-50 million. I think it's realistic they can pay up a little for late-inning reliever and then can bargain hunt at other positions as needed.

    I really like him in his utility role, but that requires having a starter at 1B and 2B. Not sure they have either one so Clemens may have to fill one. Can you believe we're talking about a waiver claim taking over a position b/c our former #1 overall pick is bad?

    If I had to guess, I'd bet this decision has already been made. Nope. Those ABs will go to guys not playing the field any particular day.

    Yes he did!

    Anyone else in here old enough to remember Tom Johnson circa 1977?? 16-7 out of the bullpen. 71 games, 146 ip, 15 saves.

    This pretty sums up where I'm at...

    Very interesting. If I had to bet, I'd put it on somewhere around June 1.

    I'd much rather watch all 3 go through the growing pains of adjusting to the big leagues than watching the dregs we've seen fill roster spots in the past. Ryan Kreidler is a pro, just not a very good one. Guys like Tristan Gray are exactly who they are. With all due respect I don't want to see any of those types occupying roster spots. It's time for the kids.

    Have agreed for a long time on trades being the way to go.
  21. HerbieFan
    Well...players still have to want to come here...
  22. HerbieFan
    Let's hope it's Jeffers

    Couldn't we really just say this about any above average reliever that is set to be a FA?

    I find it interesting that under Terry Ryan the Twins were scout-heavy since that was his background. Falvey came in and we were led to believe the organization was so far behind modern baseball...analytics. The pendulum has swung completely the opposite direction where under Falvey they were almost completely reliant on analytics and they kept downsizing the scouting department. Now the Rays and Brewers have fully laid bare the flaw in Falvey's thinking....imagine that, you actually can benefit from scouting players and not just reading computer printouts. Who knew? Maybe now they'll finally find a middle ground that works.

    Might be as good an option as "take what you can get" in a trade
