Everyone loves this character, but you'd hate him in real life, so I find him harder to like than most.
-
So, never try a rookie? That's no way to build a team, any team, but especially one that needs to spend less. Really, if you expect them to be bad next year, play the rookies so they aren't rookies in 27 and beyond....

This is a really fascinating idea! Like you say, a dream to be sure.....but there is a bit of logic here that makes sense.

Jeff K’s 2026 Payroll Blueprint: Addition by subtraction
Mike Sixel replied to Jeff K's topic in Minnesota Twins Talk
The general idea makes sense, but there is 0 chance Prielipp is a RP to start the year. Likely not Morris either, imo. -
Finished season two of Slow Horses. You should be watching this!
-
100 percent Lewis is not traded this year, agreed. But they are at least two years from being a good team.... And I don't see Lewis in Minnesota in three years.
-
Other teams bring up good like Culpeper all the time. I strongly disagree he can't be up next year.

I like Lee on defense at third, and he needs, imo, less change to concentrate on hitting. But I'd be ok either way My guess is that by the time this team is good, Lewis is traded anyway.... So I'm not sure it matters.
-
What year? 😁
-
THIS! This is not a SB winning team....learn about McCarthy (though I also want to know if KOC can call a better game, so that's a conflict).
-
I agree....but I want an elite (college) arm. You need 5 of them....
-
If the pitcher is elite, I want him. Another great write up!

No on Fedko and Rosario. Yes to your obvious six. I am now unsure on Klein. I'd like them to consolidate some of these 40-45 FV guys into a catcher prospect.... Or some high upside bullpen arms. But I don't see how that happens.

Ikf played when the starter was hurt. Put up negative fwar during that time. How will that help?

do the Twins have three hall of fame players to pair with them? Plus other stars? Because even if they sign them, it's for a year or two....

I expected him to play poorly this year. Not this poorly, but not great either. We'll know more at the end of the year.
-
And the rest of the team is all veterans, so the match is terrible.
-
Why? None of these guys help them win. Just go with the youth.

I didn't have the information they do.... But given what I have, I put Lewis at first, Culpeper short, Lee third. And just roll with it all year. But I don't think that's your actual question. I think defense matters. Moving Lee and Culpeper around won't help that at all. I see no good path to a good shortstop by moving Culpeper to second or third two days a week. I pick the guys I believe in, and play them most every day.
-
Because teams play veterans that aren't good all the time. They have to get rid of the veteran to even get playing time.
-
True, but they have texts.... So good luck to him..
-
Taylor has definitely held that team back. On a different topic.... We signed two Indy players who aren't as good for us, they signed our guys who are better for them.... There a coaching issue or several here. In fairness, one is hurt for us....
-
Good point !
-
Lasted longer than I thought, even.
-
The line is bad. But it's not just that.
