  1. Maybe fair. I've never seen a professional baseball team where no one can be defined with a defensive position. We have a lineup fill with DH's.
  2. Ryan might be injured. ERA at almost 10 since All Star break.
  3. Then put Kriedler in CF, move Keaschall to LF, Larnach to 1st base and Royce can DH. No bigger disappointment defensively than Royce on this team, in my opinion.
  4. The front office spent some money and addressed the obvious weakness. I'm not going to spend time patting anyome on the back or re-hashing what happened 12 months ago, this team is in the mix and Ryan, Bradley, and Ober will need to be adults in the rotation. Jeffers, Larnach, and Lewis will need to be great offensively for this team to make the playoffs. This is still an uphill walk, but we're moving forward.
  5. Keaschall in LF is one thing but does not have the arm to play CF. I support a real OF coming up if Buxton can't heal.
  6. Agree. Management says they are "buyers" and then they trade for a 6.00+ ERA. We need to be better shoppers.
  7. This is 100% accurate and, one has to believe they will trade Jeffers with FA around the corner. He'll most likely get 3 or 4 years at $18-20 million/year and no way this franchise pays that. Jeffers trade needs to bring immediate 24 man roster value because this division is winnable.
  8. The Twins won't pay that I'd imagine. If they move both Jeffers and Ryan before Monday, the fan base will go nuts.
  9. I have also stated that they can upgrade this bullpen without sacrificing great talent and they should do that because this bullpen is awful. Gomez, Funderburk, and Morris are good and getting better but the rest is chaos. You can't let Jeffers become a free agent and get nothing in compensation for him so I believe he's gone. I would offer Ryan a legit 3-4 contract and show the fan base you're serious about getting better.
  10. There is zero chance that Twins ownership spends $23-$26 million on a starting pitcher at the deadline. They've piece mealed this roster together all year and made to .500. Minimal additions are possible, major losses are more likely.
  11. Sonny has a flexible no trade clause. My guess is he vetos Minnesota
