    Tell you what I'd take Bailey Ober over Cole Sands for that sixth bullpen spot. High Leverage .. Gomez, Hoffman, FA signing Middle or multi innings .. Morris, Paredes, Ober (or Adams or better FA signing) Situational.. Nance, Funderburk (or Minter if he's signed)

    Fans are going to hope for a Next Crop of pitchers like we anticipate we have of position players. Prielipp and Bradley fit the bill. Monitor him surely, but to me it seems like a bullpen assignment would be viewed as a regression; even if we trade no one there is still room for Prielipp in the starting rotation. If Joe Ryan or Bailey Over is traded, I'm not too sure that Pablo and Abel are up for an entire season of games. Rojas is the guy with a bigger question mark regarding reliever or starter.

    Assumes that 1) Buxton is ready to start the season. He might be if it starts in May or June. 2) Roden isn't switched to 1B or Keaschall to DH 3) Larnach is gone

    It sounds like you'd like to return to the storied days of the past. Sign Jeffers to a one year 28,000,000 contract, trade Victor and resign Vazquez. Is that it? It sounds like that's it

    The stories will cease on December 1st

    Geez let's just get Ty France if this is the plan moving forward. On an unrelated note I just got my first pop up ad on Twins Daily! Like the uniform ad patch, it's how things work.

    There's our 2028 DH. If he can get over the Strike Three Looking thing.

    The eyeball test says Buxton doesn't hit well when he's not playing in the field. The logic test say that if you have four you outfielders who you want to get maximum plate appearances from, you rotate them into the DH slot. Now you have either a DH who sits or Buck in the field (where he ostensibly is focused, that is, hits better.) So having the DH doesn't make sense to me. And I'm a Josh Bell fan. Now having a great number of role players who are good but not very good takes us back to the roster problem we have always had. You don't want another case of an Alex Jackson who takes up space. If you're going to do without the production of a Josh Bell you had best have a good plan to get at least similar production from a parade of backup outfielders and infielders. I'm thinking it's where a Keaschall or Winokur would come into play. Rather than a Larnach or backup catcher as simulated hitter.

    If so, perhaps the shorter front loaded four year contract is the wise choice then. If as you say value cannot be recouped form a trade of Joe, generating our own value with a costly but shorter term relationship is something to consider. Shop him if you like but don't feel obligated to bite. Of course the terms and the player need to agree.

    For that money, keep Minter.
  11. Patzky
    That's a lot of bucks to play chicken with; one would hope the team offered the QO in hopes Jeffers would accept.

    Building faith and fan goodwill as well as sound strategy.

    I'd say trust but verify. Our experience has been that they will not succeed based on the experience with Wallner, Miranda, Julien, Kirilloff. But there is not actual connection between any of these players. I'm hopeful but these are the questions that we need to ask as Twins fans. What plan B will we have in place?

    "Release Me"

    Whatever we do it's finally time to start doing it. Athletics-Red Sox minor trade announced today. Let's go Pohlad.
  16. Patzky
    I feel Walker Jenkins: agent makes a long term contract already out of our price range. That ship has sailed.

    Positioning Board Challenge. Tap your cleats and hope the ump is watching.

    There'$ alway$ a way.
  19. Patzky
    So you're saying.. we could have someone like Steven Okert. 🙏
  20. Patzky
    Twins Daily makes being a Twins fan fun again even when the team tries hard to ruin it! Kidding.. I know they do try hard.
  21. Patzky
    Saying the final goodbye to our LH outfielders will more than guarantee a spot for Martin. We adore familiarity.
  22. Patzky
    So we'll move on from two below average catchers to one and an unknown? Things are truly looking up. Let's keep in mind it's a short term issue..for a year or four months (or maybe two or three if a labor stoppage lingers.) Don't sell the farm for this.

    Felton I still cringe when I hear that name or see fuzzy blond hair on the mound
  24. Patzky
    With their logic Carlos Correa was LVP.
  25. Patzky
    Would.he sadder if anyone of them besides Caratini (out of necessity) is around in March.
