  1. Lombard, Vargas, Jones, Dominguez. Couple young pitchers to take a flyer on. Maybe the Yankees feel like alot of posters and think he is ace or #2 material, that's all I'm saying. We can easily replace his 21M with a younger guy. Get something while you can. I am not Falvey or Zoll, they can figure it out. Not good enough to suffocate the youngsters.
  2. My point is 3.91 career ERA is not ace worthy. If others think of him as an ace, get ace return for him while you can
  3. My thoughts exactly. Cole out for the year. Perfect timing to trade Lopez to the Yankees for a haul. Wins 40% of his starts last 2 years. This is not ace material.
  4. Lopez 4 ERA last year and looking like doo this spring. Trade him while he still has value. Something is not right with him. He definitely isn't the stopper he was billed to be. We have young depth to take his place. He is wayyy over paid at 21M.
  5. I think Gasper takes Juliens spot. The Twins like to show off their shiny new toys.
  6. Problem is you might have 10 losses in those 12-14 starts unless we can consistently score 6+ runs a game in his starts.
  7. Please! Please! Anybody but Paddack in the rotation. Try to get some bats or balls for him before he is worth nothing.
  8. France and Bader will be top 5 offensively in this lineup. That's just the state of this offense.
  9. My all time top 3. 1. Carew 2. Killebrew 3. Oliva I loved watching Carew. How can you forget that lean back crouch and flick into left field. Then a sprint down the line and losing his helmet. And the chaw!
  10. As far as the Twins organization goes, this is almost a blockbuster deal. Can't get upset with making this move. We know that we aren't going to make anything bigger until the team is sold. I think a new name in the lineup is a positive all by itself.
  11. I asked Brooks Lee at the Twins Caravan last night where he thought the organization was going to have him spend his time in spring training. He said 2nd base was where he thought he would end up, and I believe his preference.
  12. The odds of Paddack having a sub 4 era are slim and none, and slim just left town. If he was sub 4 he would slot in as a top 3 pitcher in the rotation, and trading him would be foolish. As a more likely 4.50 to 5.00 era, he is definitely expendable.
  13. When i went to Beloit, they were actually getting food at the concession stands. At Cedar Rapids we usually sit first or second row behind the visitors dugout. Players love to interact with the fans before and even during the game. I am sure you could stay after the game and meet anyone you would like. Our is almost like a Town Ball feel.
  14. I would definitely do that in your situation. I am still bummed the Oakland A's are no more. What a storied franchise with so many great players!
  15. I will road trip to Cedar Rapids to check out the rookies. I will also go to other minor league parks within 500 miles. I also go to many high school games to get my baseball fix. I won't make any Twins road trips until they put a decent product on the field.
  16. Probably wondering what it would be like to be on a real team with a chance of winning. Then shakes his head back to reality and continues stacking his $100 bills on the kitchen table in stacks of 250. Then everything is alright again.
  17. As a 63 y/o lifelong MLB fan, I find it hard to believe and am saddened by the demise of the "Oakland A's" Probably my fave team other than the Twins. LOVE the green and yellow unis. Remember the white shoes? Campenaris, Blue, Tenace, Jackson, Catfish Hunter, Bando, Rudi etc., etc. I think it's terrible for MLB and esp the diehard A's fans.
  18. Indirectly they do control the roster, keeping it minor league, by hiding their purse.
  19. The excitement and return of the fan base won't happen until we get new owners. We've been dealing with a glorified minor league team for years with the Pohlads. Simple, people are finding other things to do, and other things to spend their money on. Little or no effort from the owners equals little or no dedication from the fans. Myself included.
  20. I can see why it took a couple months to pull off this high magnitude trade.
  21. I agree with you. Then you can't say he has the team he wants. He can't have it both ways.
  22. Because he thinks it is just that good? Or because he knows he can't spend any money? Two very different reasons that will result in two very different outcomes. If it's the first reason, he better find another profession.
  23. Couldn't agree with you more. The Twins are ruining my love for MLB. I find high school baseball more enjoyable now.
  24. And how is our bullpen going to be any better this year again?
