    I am glad that you started with the first post-season move regarding the athletic trainer position. This should not be a needle-moving action, but it was certainly hard to have confidence in how things unfolded last season. Correa's return, Vasquez signing, and Arraez trade all show big-time roster-building skills, and Taylor and Farmer are upgrades over last year as well. Pitching depth is strong through even the AAA roster. Many good moves here. My confidence is low in Gallo, Lopez, and Pagan...and, sadly, "wild card" Dobnak. But, that is a pretty short list. Well written summary, Nick.

    Is it possible that the team has tried to tried Kepler and just not been able to find anyone interested enough to provide something that the Twins value in exchange?

    I understand the value of pursuing Taylor. But ouch. With an in-division opponent, Sisk is very likely going to come back to haunt us more than Taylor will haunt them. Meanwhile, I'm gonna have to swallow my concerns about Joey Gallo and Emilio Pagan and watch to see what amazing magic they can bring to this team which made the FO believe that this trade improves the team's future.

    Sigh. A very good analysis of the good times and tragedy mixed with a bit of nostalgia and sense of lost opportunity. Is it just my foggy recollection, or did he get injured this season making a stupid base-running choice at the end of a game where his run in the end really didn't matter anyway? It just seems to me that some of his injury victimness came as a result of less than smart choices on or around the field, also.

    So, I realize he played more 1b than C this season at Saint Paul, so more than likely he is not a defensive whiz.....but Chris Williams hit well with the Saints this season and is rostered as a catcher. Was his season just a mirage, or is he a potential consideration?
