  1. The only one I really agree on is Jeffers. I don't want to see him go, however if he is going to test free agency then getting something is needed. Ryan - extend, extend Buxton is NOT going anywhere and the Twins should not even ask him to waive his no trade cause. Stay a Twin for life Wallner can go - but won't bring back much. I prefer to keep Lewis. I have soured on him some since he first broke in, but still believe he can be a key cog. Caratini needs to be kept as we can't move forward without both him and Jeffers Larnach won't bring back much and the youth isn't ready, nor will all of them succeed.
  2. but we still have Gray if we need to bring him back up
  3. That is something we don't know and IF he wants out, like Berrios did, then you need to do it after the season.
  4. That is correct - and the depth should help to maintain the roster through moves and continued development of arms
  5. I agree with your last point, however the 1987 Twins roster was not a championship roster either - but they are the WS champions. I think Joe can be a building block to help elevate the next few years to a championship caliber roster.
  6. With the parity in the AL a complete rebuild is not necessary. Win back the fans by extending both Ryan's. Rotation is then Pablo, Joe, Taj, Abel, Bailey w/depth behind them. Parades and Festa as BP pieces. Then you have plenty of depth to trade some prospects for to fill in hole. Fans will come back and farm system is set to supplement either via call ups or trades for a few years.
  7. Jackson in a package with ERod would get a better return
  8. If still in contention, that projects to most likely Arcia
  9. Fundy or Rogers could be replaced by Coloume if we could get him
  10. Same as you get with Bell. Wallner/Martin not much more than a lottery ticket. I am not a believer that ERod will reach his ceiling, and even if he does, all of the OF prospects can't all be on the team. He is the one I trade for help
  11. Now get Ryan signed and you have Pablo, Joe and Taj to lead the SP
  12. Jeffers may not project that high, but catchers are thin at the MLB level right now and signing him to an extension may be an overpay, but also necessary for the next couple of years. Bell wont' bring much more than a single A prospect. I would ride him out for the year. Larnach needs to stay - ERod/Martin/Wallner should be the trade pieces
