Yep you are right, Vince velasquez and Brad Keller are way better than the former cy young and best pitcher in the league. This guy shows insane talent and if yougo on youtube and watch him pitch recently. However here in Minnesota we love 6 ERA's way more than signing a good pitcher who got framed for something he didn't do. Makes sense.

I love that we got rid of Rooker. However, I don't see how parting with Rodgers is a good idea. Especially when our bullpen needs just as much help as our rotation. In my mind it is like trading sonny gray for a meh reliever. i don't think it is the worst thing ever but it isn't my favorite transaction of the off season.

I like the move. I have always really liked and rooted for him. He is a cheap option and if he works then we have an option on him for next year too. A couple of days ago I was looking at the FA list and saw that he was a Free Agent and thought we should try him out. So overall i am happy with the move and hope he will pan out. I Can't see Winder or Thorpe or any of those guys on the border of being Major leaguers doing any better than Archer can do but i could be wrong. He also brings some Veteran expierience among our young rotation. Also some much needed swag he knows that he is a major leaguer and the vibe i get from him is that he is going to go get that starting spot.
