    Yes, if you uprooted your entire life based on promises of competing and investing in the team, I'd be not happy as well. I'd say it goes back to the off-season befoythat fresh off the play offs, they did not double down and invest, that showed the team leadership didn't believe. It's not about money always, the other currency is prospects and they could have made trades for talented pre arb or early arb players

    I feel bad for TD. Y'all have been exceptional over the decade I've engaged with the content. But the owners make it tough for fans to be anything but apathetic, which likely decrease engagement here. I remember pre ads here, but I know the content game has had much worse economics creating that need for ads. I worry the people at One Twins way are taking a Miley Cyrus wrecking ball to the community you helped navigate through the terrible early 2010s. by inspiring hope in the prospects. To me it's less about giving the Polahds money but finding a way to hold accountable that the front office has created an uninspiring brand of baseball. I'm not even 30 but I miss the days of Piranha ball, crisp fielding and Nick Punto like hustle

    It was a mistake to not package Bader and Duran, they both went to Philly. Once again the FO chose quantity over quality. They have a "catcher" who doesn't grade well defensively, and a SP who lacks control. Premium RP for half season should get back end top 100 like marlins got for Tanner Scott last year. Each year of control another top 100. They should have added Crawford as the Buxton successor,and the Phillies SS prospect advanced up the middle talent. Those two should have headlined with one more back end top 100. Would also have done Painter and Crawford. They need RP because they and the Mets neither wants to risk a payroll that high getting out in the wild card round. Don't get me started on the other trades.

    How nice of a prospect is the group willing to give the Marlins to take his salary and we will send you LHRP?
  18. Ryan_K
    Royce and comp a pick for Luzardo, both have injury concerns. or add Nardi and Nick Fortes (def first catcher) and Marlins take on Vasquez. I'd do this as Marlins fan. Old number 3s are getting 22mm a year, Luzardo is undervalued by MLB trade values
  19. Ryan_K
    Trade idea, Twins trade Padock and Vasquez and Royce and ERod Marlins assume full salary and trade back Fortes, and Luzardo
  20. Ryan_K
    so as a Miami guy, we don't need Larnach, Royce is interesting, would want to see if we can build bigger package and remove our catcher from the trade. Both have some injury concerns so it's fair, but if Jesus got healthy you'd be looking one top 25 prospect and another top 70 prospect for 2 years, we only do Royce if we sign him to extension
  21. Ryan_K
    As a Marlins fan, would love him down here. Probably tough to trade Eury but other pitchers are more likely.
  22. Ryan_K
    White Sox are easily more attractive, not stuck in a lease so a) they can relocate b) Chicago much larger market for local revenue. Either way WS have path to local development opportunities that twins don't. other factors mentioned are transitory: farm, MLB roster nothing sticky about either one of those

    It's a high price for 1 team. The style is not engaging with the strike outs, wish it was more KC speed, contact defense and players who play 130 plus games. Plus you still have ads IMO, make it free streaming, boost viewership, and use that to sell ad spots at a higher rate. Plus this gets the 5 state area being Twins fans easily so more merch and seats are sold.
  25. Ryan_K
    Interesting idea, if Nardi, and young LH SP i.e. Braxton Garrett plus Marlins taking Vasquez contract off the Twins hands, what would be your best offer. I no longer have MLB Trade Values, but think this could give Twins flexibility...Marlins would love a package that could start with Lee or Louis
  26. Ryan_K
    He's better than Harvey who KC got for a prospect just outside top 100 and a comp a pick.
  27. Ryan_K
    well my offer may seem steep, but if you aren't trading your best prospect you need quantity and even then it's usually 1 top 100 per year add in LHP and you get him for 3 playoff runs it's 3 top 100s, if you'd rather have Cleveland and KC take the division while this core is still young it's the teams choice

    One quick follow up, the rest of the central needs pieces the Marlins have, so if Bendix plays his cards right he starts by trading Jazz and some other guys to Detroit and KC and Cleveland and put MN in a desperate spot to overpay in prospects --remember the TV situation twins have to put a good product together to get some ad Rev
  30. Ryan_K
    I say this as a former MN and now Miamian. Luzardo is healthy and good, look at his last 10 starts and is controllable for 2.5 years, the offer must exceed the Cease and Berrios trades. I'd ask for Jenkins, if that's a no then I ask Lee and EROD, I could swap that for Lee plus festa + raya plus soto, Also if there is anything MN would be open to moving Royce I'd love to hear --Marlins would love him, we miss Arraez. Also want Austin Martin as a throw in
