    The Twins are the favorite to win the division. AAA is for pitcher development. Find another free agent if the best they can do with that slot is throw spaghetti at the wall.
  2. DJL44
    Scarcity. It's really hard to find starting pitchers and they're incredibly expensive.
  3. DJL44
    I would consider trading Gordon and the Twins Round B pick at #71 for the Rockies Round A pick at #38.
  4. DJL44
    Yes, the Marlins decided to play everyone out of position last year to get bats in the lineup.
  5. DJL44
    I think it is pretty clear Arraez is a better baseball player than Polanco right now. I'd trade both Kirilloff and Polanco for Arraez and stick him back at 1B where he was good defensively. I'd even add a minor leaguer to sweeten the deal.
  6. DJL44
    I would trade Duran to get Gilbert.
  7. DJL44
    He is, but not as good and valued as Pablo Lopez and especially not for the Twins.
  8. DJL44
    I would put Willi Castro at 3B or SS before I asked Polanco to do it. If Polanco is playing SS then somebody got injured during the game.
  9. DJL44
    Arraez is probably going to win his arbitration hearing and get $12M this season. That would guarantee him at least $12M next season (probably $16M) and then he's a free agent. If you want him on a 3-year deal expect to pay $50M+, not $36M.

    I also don't see Manoah coming over as a 1 for 1 but in a package to hedge against some of the volatility it could happen.
  11. DJL44
    This is not a bad idea. Clevinger is underrated.
  12. DJL44
    The Colorado Rockies pitchers end up at the bottom of the list consistently.
  13. DJL44
    If the Rangers add Montgomery they could be open to trading Andrew Heaney just to free up cash. He's on a 1 year $13M contract for 2024.
  14. DJL44
    2B and DH does not equal "multiple positions". Polanco cannot play 3B or SS adequately.
  15. DJL44
    Hoping for the best is great but you should plan for the most reasonable result.
  16. DJL44
    I expected to see some mid-1990s Twins on the list but there weren't any. Was surprised to look up Frankie Rodriguez and see him as a postive WAR contributor. Betting he shows up on the negative WAA list (-2.7).
  17. DJL44
    Woods-Richardson is the 6th starter at the moment. They can upgrade the rotation at the deadline (though the last time they did was Mahle and people universally hate that trade) but they need another starter before opening day.
  18. DJL44
    They clearanced out a ton of them really cheap at the State Fair. How else are you going to get a Twins jersey for $5?
  19. DJL44
    Hope is not a plan.
  20. DJL44
    Most of them are already gone. Montgomery and Snell are all that remains. Neither one is looking to sign with the Twins.
  21. DJL44
    The Twins weren't going to give Pressly a high dollar contract extension.
  22. DJL44
    Better than a "projectable build".
  23. DJL44
    One silver lining, Nick Gordon is more likely to pass through waivers at $1.25M than at $900k. It would make him easier to stash in St. Paul.
  24. DJL44
    I think the complete bust potential for the #8 pick is like 30%. An average starting position player in MLB getting paid during his cost-controlled seasons has like $80M in excess future value.
  25. DJL44
    In other Twins news, this looks like it will be Torii Hunter's last season on the ballot as well. He's tracking to fall below 5%.
