    I am still really curious to see what the Twins end up doing with Alex Jackson. I don't think they will carry three catchers on the roster, but without options I don't know what the plan is here. He's not hitting well this spring, so I guess the most likely outcome is he is DFAd.

    Austin Hays might not be a flashy player, but I would be more than happy if Gonzalez had a Hays type outcome.

    Taj Bradley must have read this comment. He's dealing versus the Yankees.

    Probably two lefty relievers and Mickey Gaspar

    What can go wrong does

    I give them a B- because I doubt Falvey/Zoll were given the financial freedom to spend much money. Despite that, they still managed to build a almost league average bullpen, and brought in a few fringe bats.

    Another reminder that there is never too much pitching.
  8. Permanent Twins Fan
    I agree. I think it is a year too early to move Buxton to the corners.

    Probably Opening Day

    Paredes' bat would be a welcome addition to the twins lineup, and the Twins do seem to match up well with the Astros for a potential trade. One problem that comes up is that much of Paredes power comes from the fact that he is a heavy pull air rate guy who takes advantage of the short porch in Houston. Target field is over 20 feet deeper in left, which would probably take away a lot of Paredes home run potential. Every single one of Paredes' 20 homeruns in 2025 were hit to left field.

    I think it was a great return for a reliever that had only really been good for a few months. It just didn't seem that there was any reason to trade him, especially with the many years of club control he had left.

    Louie Varland? Oh wait, never mind.

    "I do not know what 'strategic flexibility' means anymore, but I can type it very fast." That's a phenomonal line. This might be the best non-Randballs Stu satire article I've read.

    So basically the entire group that was running the team in 2022-23 is gone. In 2022 we had J. Pohlad-Levine-Falvey-Baldelli-Correa. Now, since they are all gone, we have T. Pohlad-Zoll- Shelton-Buxton. And yet even with all that change, I am not convinced at all that anything is going to change for the Twins.

    Sounds like a lot of fun, but there are a lot of young pitchers coming up so there are probably better ways to spend at least 15-20 million a year. 20 million dollars invested into the bullpen could go a long ways toward getting a competitive bullpen. Now, of course, if the Twins did sign Framber Valdez, you will not hear a negative comment from me.
  17. Permanent Twins Fan
    The Twins needed to do this. For a bit I was worried that they were just going to leave the bullpen without any additions. I still think they need to bring in another reliever, preferrably a righty to further bolster the bullpen. Evan Phillips and Seranthony Dominguez are names I would target. As it stands right now, my choice for bullpen would be Funderburk, Sands, Orze, Topa, Rogers, Adams, Festa, and Klein.
  18. Permanent Twins Fan
    If they bring in Framber Valdez and/or Eugenio Suarez, there will be no cause for worry about a Taylor Rogers incited frenzy.
  19. Permanent Twins Fan
    Why?

    "Over 2000 AAA Plate Appearances" "A more Robust .242/.310/.472"

    Compared to what the Twins have right now any of these names seem attractive. I think to be competitive the Twins need to at least 2 more major league caliber veteran relievers, but I won't get my hopes up. Seranthony Dominguez sound especially interesting.

    The Twins infield defense this season is going to be atrocious. Bell/Wagaman/Clemens are all below average defenders, and the rest of the infield is not good defensively either.
  25. Permanent Twins Fan
    In no universe is Josh Bell or Eric Wagaman going to take away at-bats from Buxton. Buxton will be in the lineup almost every day that he is available for.
