  1. Marte is this year's money, severino is next. You could have them both.....
  2. Or, they don't spend as much next year on good players, in the hope he is good, and he's not. We have entire threads on not spending six million on a relief pitcher, let alone eight .. Let's hope the team isn't as conservative with it's money as many here think they should be.
  3. Or, the Rays could just take Kohl Stewart in the upcoming draft for free.... I'd think Archer would cost two of their top pitching prospects, whatever hitter the Rays wanted, and one more mid tier player. Me? No way Jay is on that list if I'm the Rays. I take Gonsalves, the AA pitcher they most want, Lewis, and Kiriloff. Archer is practically signed for free, compared to what a pitcher of his quality costs.
  4. With next year's money, not this year's...... Not relevant.
  5. Two world series since the Twins last won.....
  6. Hannah Hochevar 1:58 I like both, but do you prefer Smyly or Pineda for TJ return? Eno Sarris 1:58 Smyly had a crappier, longer injury history going in, so I guess that's an argument for Pineda. But Pineda had labrum surgery way back when, so I'll take Smyly.

  8. Brian 1:39 Which teams do you view as leading the way in terms of data driven pitching analytics? Where might you rank the mariners in that list? Eno Sarris 1:40 I think the Mariners do a lot there, look at some of their fringe acquisitions like Moll. Extreme high spin and low spin waiver pickups. I think very highly of the Cubs pitching analytics group, they're obviously doing their best to supplement offensive core with smart pitching pickups. The Rays were formidable with Kalk so maybe the Twins will pick it up.
  9. Roadhog 1:33 I like Darvish on the Twins, so I hope that happens. Bring back Chris Gimenez as well. Eno Sarris 1:33 I mean they need, you know, an actual pitching staff beyond Berrios. So Yu would be a big start
  10. Btw.... Happy to be wrong on this one! The most Republican state elected a Democrat. Check out fivethirtyeight....
  11. Probably.... Not sure what that has to do with tying up money or not. It's money. Already spent. On an injured player. I find it fascinating the response, given other threads. Nothing more or less. Like I said, I like it. But then, I think the Twins have plenty of money to spend.
  12. Not in the relief pitcher thread..... People are typing they'd rather only sign flyers than pay market rates. This is market rate for a relief pitcher. I find it a fascinating signing. Really not what the old guard would do. Assuming it doesn't stop them from spending elsewhere, I think I like it.
  13. Ohtani Kitaen 12:52 What have the Twins done other than sign Pinaeda and sell $2-million in international signing money for a couple of prospects? Hardly seems enough to be called the off-season of your dreams. Dave Cameron 12:53 Hired Josh Kalk away from the Rays.
  14. There is an entire thread starting signing any relief pitcher for market rate is a bad idea..... They have locked in the price of a good relief pitcher next year, on a guy that might not pitch this year. And, I don't think it does, I was talking about all the posts and threads here worrying about spending any money, basically.
  15. Joe 12:35 Do you like the Smyly's or Pineda's 2/10 deal better from the team perspective? Dave Cameron 12:35 Pineda Would love to see what he looks like in relief when he gets back at end of this year.
  16. Derek Falvey 12:24 Do the Twins have a realistic shot at getting Darvish? Dave Cameron 12:24 I haven't heard anyone else on Darvish, so sure. Jon Bon Jovi 12:24 How do you feel about the Twins' signing of Pineda? Dave Cameron 12:24 I love everything the Twins have done this winter. They are having the off-season of my dreams Derek Falvey 12:24 How likely is it that the Twins put together a package for a controllable starter like Cole or Archer? Dave Cameron 12:24 Not sure they have the pieces to make that happen.
  17. Looks like white people had no issue voting for Moore. That part is depressing.
  18. Creative. Would be nice to get legit help for this year too. For a group of people that worry about payroll flexibility, this board sure is high on the move.
  19. No chance I trade two pitchers for 1 year of Machado. Zero. Nada. Nil. Zilch. I can't even imagine why the Twins would do that.
  20. Two series titles ...... Yes, the interim was very bad.... But two titles.
  21. Lots of people questioned the Haley move, when he was taken/traded for, and during the year. This isn't simple hindsight.
  22. I would guess that kills many of the trade opportunities. Why Rooker? Or even Lewis?
  23. Dozens of games on the roster. It is the roster spot some of us didn't like.
