    We do realize that Duran has been one of the top relievers in baseball for two years right?

    Congratulations to the team and more importantly the fans. I’m going to enjoy this for a day or two and then come back to reality. Which is we slid into the easiest playoff spot possible. Enjoy the playoffs and then expect our FO to do substantially better next year.

    Without having too much info…but it seems like he may not be above average at any position. Kind of like if you have two quarterbacks you actually have no quarterbacks. I like guys to settle in their best defensive position and get good at it.

    Kenta would take the QO in a heartbeat. I can’t see anyone offering a contract through his age 39 season.
  5. Linus
    I think Gray will get a better contract than those guys. I’m guessing 3 years $60 million.
  6. Linus
    I want to bring Maeda back but he isn’t going to get the QO. He would probably get about $12 million a year for two years.

    There is a reason to doubt every prospect. They are all suspects until they are not.
  8. Linus
    So creamed corn?
  9. Linus
    Has to be Gray or Lopez. Castro has been great in his role. If I was giving it to a position player it would be Jeffers. I can’t believe I am saying this because the guy drove me nuts last year. His improvement this year is nothing short of remarkable.

    I think the biggest factor was Joe had been swinging like that since he was 5. Not that easy to change after all those years especially because it served him very well until analytics exposed his patterns
  11. Linus
    Here. That’s why I posted the question-just don’t seem to get much clear info on what his best position might be.
  12. Linus
    I’m definitely happy with Royce as he has the skills and charisma to be a generational player. There is a lot to like about Hunter Greene. He is way more than velo. Nice breaking ball and ok change with pretty solid mechanics. Plus he’s a big strong dude. Both teams will be happy to have each player for a long time.

    Wallner takes his helmet off more than any player I’ve seen.
  14. Linus
    I believe the Twins lead the universe in taking called strike 3.
  15. Linus
    I think part of this depends on Martin. I’ve heard all kinds of mixed reports about his fielding. Some saying he isn’t good in the infield but good already in the outfield and vice versa. I’m a big fan of getting players in their best defensive position.

    I think it is still an open question or at least it should be. All three have been effective at times and not effective during some stretches. Last night’s game didn’t help this decision. And Keuchel isn’t even going to make the first round playoff roster.
  18. Linus
    The Sox are kind of screwed. Aging roster that isn’t cheap and some decisions to make (which they haven’t been good at). Tim Anderson is a free agent but is 31 and not reliable. Sox almost have to sign him given the fee agent class next year. Does make you feel good about the state of the Twins.

    If Buck isn’t healthy then I put Royce there right away. The kid is such an athlete he would do amazing things. I also would bring MAT for one year. I’m hopeful on Martin but you can’t just plug him in there based on a good half season of AAA. And god no on Celestino. I would see if I could use him in a trade package. Short of that I would dfa him. Would rather have the 40 man spot.
  20. Linus
    I would make sure he has a complete rest day every other day. The bat is coming around but he has had a couple plays in the field that looked really lifeless. Kepler too - I think he could use a rest.
  21. Linus
    After Duran he is really the most reliable reliever they have. Hard to believe he is still arb eligible.
  22. Linus
    And with shifting 3rd is a more athletic position than it used to be. Often they are lined up in the hole and have to cover lots of ground. I’m not happy to predict this but I think he is the Twins cf maybe as early as next year.
  23. Linus
    Well my tune is that I like Royce a lot. I’m just not ready to say he’s Kirby. We can discuss this again in ten years 😀
  24. Linus
    A little early to be comparing him to Kirby but he does have charisma. FO deserves some credit here as many said taking Royce first was a reach. I just hope that he can eventually play a premium position like short or center and really utilize his athletic ability.
  25. Linus
    I know Varland wants to be a starter and I don’t blame him but…….wouldn’t it be nice to bring a guy out of the bullpen that throw the hell out of the ball for 3 innings?
