  1. Suspects for a prospect? All they could say is no(maybe while laughing) but could open dialog to start something...
  2. Being on the bubble in Minnesota, is that like being the only white guy in chino?
  3. If Saunders was the 2nd or 3rd best addition to this years rotation , id say would be a decent signing, but for him to be our ace? I think a better use of that money would be to acquire the cuban kid Diaz...a long term solution
  4. If you always do what you have always done, You always get what you have always gotten.
  5. Sorry to say your wrong about the year as Joe will be the player /manager of the twins with his brother jake as his bench coach...maybe as soon as 2015 ,when Ron moves to the roving minor leaque coach
  6. Pedro Martinez was only 5ft 11 inches , hope berrois at an even 6 foot is a better pitcher =)
  7. If this is a yearly event , give me a little more notice as mexico is a ways to travel . hope it is a great turnout and everyone has a fun and safe time
  8. I wonder why you would even trade for Porcello , yes he is young , but has about 6/9 k rate , a career 4.55 ERA, he is to me a younger Correia with a little more zip
  9. What does history tell us of T.J. surgerys? usally it takes 6 months for the rust to wear off and the 2nd year is when you see the results, so dont expect much from Pelfrey , as for Harden he hasnt pitched in the majors since? 2009. As for Correia he should have been A 1 year contract while the other 2 should have been 1 year with an option.
  10. So if you figure 6000 at bats for the twins each year we are willing to give up 150 of them to a .183 career hitter? is our offense good enough to obsorb his bat , to keep his glove in the game or on the bench? Also with his defensive prowes creating ing 1-2 games a year for us , how many games do we lose from not having a better bench ?
  11. Is the offense good enough to give up 05% of its at bats to a guy who has a .183 career batting average?
  12. Must be nice to have a general manager who makes good trades
  13. How will the twins be ready to compete in 2014-2015? please explain this to me.
  14. Hasnt there been many reports this off season that the Twins payroll would return to the 100 million dollar mark?
  15. Napoli signs a 1 year 5 million dollar contract , a big difference from 3/39
  16. Jesus isnt a bartender , but in fact a fisher of men
  17. Yes it is very hard to acquire quality players when your not the highest bidder and in the midst of being the worst team 2 years running
  18. 50,000 is what it would have cost to sign Lara in the rule 5 draft, which would you prefer on the team? One weakness i see is from the left side of the pen, Duensing (if he isnt starting) or Robertson .Seems a little weak to me
  19. Not sure how to grade them . This off season was sadly different then from last years,where Terry had an idea of what he wanted and went out and got the players he targeted.This off season it seemed more like he waited till after Christmas for a blue light special in the bargin bins of K-Mart . As for the trades, to me we need to wait an see how Worley recovers and if May is a starter or reliever. C/C+
  20. If Pressly is used right , he should be able to stick, as for Vazquez ,not to sure about him , but i think the other 3 will get plenty of starts.. go Twins
  21. He is a waste of space , plain and simple....
  22. Must be practicing to be a general manager or team owner...
  23. ok what would it take in your opinion?
  24. Just not sure Saunders is the type of pitcher I would give an extra year to.If he was the 3 rd best starter we signed , I would be in favor of signing him.But at this point of the off season ,im content going into the season with what we have, I dont believe there are any true assets left on the market
  25. With Boston looking for a left handed 1b , is it posible to build a package around Justin , Harrison , Boyd and maybe Hermsen to aquire Bogaerts?
