  1. Taking his best prospects away from him would be a bigger win.
  2. They are not adding anyone to the roster before the trade deadline. They are not adding Culpepper or Jenkins to the roster to sit on the bench and get optioned back to AAA in 10 days. You will see Gray, Fedko or Gonzalez - most likely Gray because he doesn’t need everyday playing time.
  3. White Sox just had an injury and need a catcher. Dodgers also need a catcher. Red Sox could use an upgrade at catcher.
  4. Vikings training camp starts August 1. Lynx basketball playoff games start September 27. Everyone will be too busy talking football and basketball to pay attention to what the Twins are doing.
  5. If you want to pay Arraez 4 years and $80M this offseason you would probably be the high bid by $25M. You don’t need to trade Royce Lewis to overpay Arraez.
  6. Two months of a catcher. He will play about 30 regular season games for his new employer.
  7. I think one of these pitchers and a lesser piece is probably all you get. Warren and Doval would be a good trade for the Twins.
  8. It doesn’t take much to beat Volpe and Doval. Neither one has much trade value at the moment. They are high floor throw-in players. The Twins have found players almost as good on waivers. The Twins would be doing the Yankees a favor taking on their salaries. The Twins should get a better prospect because they helped the Yankees dump salary in the trade. Volpe and Doval would be a fair trade for Josh Bell and Taylor Rogers, not for Ryan Jeffers.
  9. All the metrics say otherwise. He was bad last year but was playing with a torn labrum.
  10. The Twins current closer was a risky reliever who performed terribly for the Yankees. Doval throws gas. I would love to see if Maki can help him get his slider back.
  11. Ryan Kreidler is the 27th ranked SS in MLB and his offense is fading as he gets more playing time. SS is definitely a need.
  12. I would be fine with adding Volpe and Doval, but I also want a pitching prospect (Lagrange, Lalane, Beck, Hess) from the Yankees. The Twins can help the Yankees shed salary and grab two useful players, but that can’t be the headline part of the deal.
  13. That’s about what Ed Julien returned from the Rockies. I looked up Jace Kaminska - he is out all of 2026 after missing all of 2025.
  14. I don’t think Wallner or Bell has any trade value at the deadline. Which contenders are looking for a 700 OPS DH? Bell would be a downgrade at DH for the Astros, Dodgers, Rays, Phillies, Mariners, Yankees, and Rangers. He would be almost as good as the current option for the Guardians, Brewers, Nationals, Orioles, Cardinals, Cubs and White Sox. That leaves the Braves, Pirates, Red Sox and Diamondbacks as teams who might find Josh Bell useful.
