    Who’s buying on these players? Not a contender, and that’s who is shopping. I saw Julien mentioned as a bargain pickup for the Astros but otherwise a contender is going to want good players instead.
  2. DJL44
    I expect Martin to get another shot when Castro and Bader are dealt. Miranda is having an awful season. I don’t know why anyone would want him. He might need to go to Japan or Korea for his next job. Julien could return a reliever like Adams, which could be useful. Better to deal him before they lose him on waivers next season.

    I think 2B is a clear place to add speed and defense. 1B is a clear place to add consistent offense. LF would be nice to add both with Jenkins but he’s a year off.

    Ultimately, I want the Twins to use Jax and Duran as bait to trade Coulombe and Stewart. Brock Stewart is basically a scratch and dent version of Jax and Duran. You can’t afford the payment for Jax? Let me show you this beauty I’ve got out back, runs like a dream and you can drive off with it today.

    These deals seem fair for Jax. For Duran I want another player. A-ball with upside. Closers demand a premium.

    What exactly do you think the three athletic trainers and two strength and conditioning coaches do all day? Are they just sitting in the clubhouse playing cards?

    Worth noting that neither Duran nor Jax was ever rated that highly.
  9. DJL44
    Jax is 30 and Duran is 27. Just based on that I’d rather trade Jax.

    I would be shocked if the Twins neglect to have their infielders run agility drills.

    Great job showcasing the Twins relievers for the scouts in attendance.

    Playoff odds down to 3.5%, dropped to 9th in the wild card race.
  14. DJL44
    He might drop off as he climbs the ladder but there aren’t many more rungs left to climb. Reminds me a little of Michael Cuddyer as a RH bat with a strong arm and otherwise below average defensive ability.
  15. DJL44
    Neither one of those guys costs more than rookie.
  16. DJL44
    Odds only up to 4.1%. They won but didn’t gain any ground on teams ahead of them in the standings.
  17. DJL44
    The Twins aren’t selling prospects this deadline but there are some “sell high” options. Brock Stewart is a good example. They could get a very good prospect for an arm they picked up off the scrap heap.
  18. DJL44
    His next two seasons are probably $21M in arbitration so that would be three additional seasons at $34M each for Joe Ryan ages 32-34. I think he would take that but doubt the Twins would offer it.
  19. DJL44
    “ It means trading Ryan (because he'll be very expensive over his final two years of arbitration eligibility” He’s actually not. His arbitration values are likely $7M next season and $14M in 2027 which is an absolute bargain for an All-Star pitcher.
  20. DJL44
    Down to 3.8% after the second loss to Colorado. 8th in the wild card standings.
  21. DJL44
    He was outrighted to the minors.
  22. DJL44
    Down to 5.6% after the loss to the Rockies
  23. DJL44
    You can't blame just Wallner and Lewis for the underperformance of this team. It's a lot deeper than that.
  24. DJL44
    Usually, when the players are consistently underperforming their capabilities, the manager gets fired.
  25. DJL44
    Good to know. I will be in section 318W with my family for Star Wars night on Saturday. Probably won't post here again until next weekend.
