  1. Who do we move to make room for FA signing(s)? Proposed 2027 Twins Pitchers SP - Taj Bradley SP - Pablo Lopez SP - Joe Ryan SP - Mick Abel SP - Connor Prielipp SP - Dean Kremer RP - Bailey Ober RP - Zebby Matthews RP - Kendry Rojas RP - Jeff Hofman RP - Yoendrys Gomez RP - Kody Funderburk RP - AJ Minter Pitchers to stash in St Paul: RP - Andrew Morris RP - Travis Adams RP - David Festa RP - Mike Paredes RP - Jack Anderson RP - Garrett Acton RP - Marco Raya RP - Cole Sands
  2. Seems like the WAR stat should reflect the value of defensive catchers better than it does. Bailey has won 2 consecutive Gold Gloves and produced only 1.7 and 1.1 WAR for those seasons.
  3. There is zero risk in leaving Mercedes unprotected. There's a decent chance he washes out of pro ball before ever reaching AA.
  4. Morris was the very definition of 'replacement level' in 2026 (0.0 WAR, 97 ERA+) -- which isn't a bad thing. Both his youth and his advanced stats are reasons for optimism. Will he learn from mistakes, make the adjustments to his pitch mix, refine his command? He's got the talent.
  5. A manager is expected to play the hand they are dealt, making changes as they become obvious to all. Hoping he can discard the few clunkers from his hand and draw some kings!
  6. Kendry has as much ceiling as any pitcher in the organization -- but beware of the floor. I'm hopeful that he'll tighten it up in '27 and be a contributor. He turns 24 next month.
  7. Not if we can dupe another team into taking him off our hands.
  8. No thanks on Bohm. No thanks on Royce. We can do better.
  9. In his last 8 starts, Bohorquez threw 36 innings, allowed only 3 earned runs, struck out 41 and had a WHIP of 0.750.
  10. 3-7 seems like the right range to me: 1. Acquire a 2-3 WAR second baseman (preferably one who can also back up at SS) 2. Acquire a solid catcher for less than half what Jeffers would cost us 3. Move Lewis and upgrade 1B by trade, FA or internal solution 4. Move Larnach or non-tender 5. Spend the winter looking for trade opportunities wherein we acquire several young pitching prospects in return for some of our 11-30 prospects, thereby adding depth at Ft Myers, CR and Wichita. 6. Focus upcoming drafts on signing pitching talent
  11. Roden played 39 games at 1B while at Creighton and 11 more in the Cape Cod League. I think it would be an easy transition for him. But will he ever profile as an MLB first baseman? Maybe not, but he's an upgrade over Royce...
  12. With baseball evolving away from base stealing, is it possible good defensive catchers will go the way of the junk-ball pitcher? Seems like a lot of modern catchers lean towards bat-first and defend-seldom...
