  1. While I agree, this is already a bottom 3 team (if not dead last) in baseball. If they aren’t going to spend their way to mediocrity, they’ll never ever get there with this current group. the damage is done. 4 players have more value in trade, than in winning 55 wins or 50.
  2. I agree with Mike that prospects are a gamble, more likely hit on 1 with two than 1 with one. i also think that contention is 2028 or later, so the details matter less. They really need to replace whole roster. Just get value in volume in the high A, double a bracket.
  3. Agreed, I think part of this discussion between Falvey and Buxton was ‘26 budget and contention window. again, nothing really new.
  4. 1) Pear is a shape 2) working on defense and improving are different We’ll never know more about the allegations than what has been published. My personal feeling is I believe the woman, and Sano and the Twins both lost a ton of respect from me over what allegedly happened and how it was handled. 6) Attitude is important, but is not “everything”.
  5. Raya had a 6 era in triple A, Abel, Matthews and Festa have 5 eras, Bradley 4.85 era, Prielipp has pitched a total over 3 professional seasons of 112 innings. Lewis is 26 and has 4 mlb seasons, Wallner is 28 as is Jeffers Rodriguez, Culpepper and Jenkins do not a young team make
  6. The question is, will the needs increase by the end of the winter meetings? Or decrease? my bet is increase
  7. It would take a lot to pry away Rodriguez. The Twins have a lot of pitching, but if they were to trade away Lopez or Ryan, Lodolo might become more appealing. As things sit right now they have a couple Lodolo’s on the roster and really need cheap hitting, so this trade doesn’t make the most sense.
  8. I’m not upset about the young players, I’m upset about the years of dithering, followed by gutting the team and now dithering some more. This all could have been done incrementally… i don’t know yet on what the direction is almost a month into the offseason? I don’t buy it. do the deuce or stand up
  9. Kendrys Morales
  10. Just wait til we’re waffling on whether or not to take the bulging cans.
  11. From a service time perspective, a month (or whatever that threshold is) can be an extra year on the backside. if he really is that guy, and this really is the Pohlad Pocket Protectors… you get that extra year
  12. I’m a henchman for this Doctor Evil. It’s a union gig, good benefits, pension. Sure it requires moral flexibility, but the pay is steady.
  13. Important lesson for all of us.
  14. It has to be approved by the owners still, right? I wonder what pitfalls might still be ahead
  15. Depth? Or quality depth? they certainly have volume of players who can theoretically play the outfield in AAA and the majors.
  16. Most seasons he plays 80-90 games, so I’m taking the under at 3. Sports books wouldn’t see the line at 3, they’d set it at 1.9 or 2.2, something like that. No ties…
  17. Robert Frost? Or Robert Johnson? Is it bad that I hope for Johnson?
