  1. Yes, this idea the Twins are outliers is always funny to me. The issue is talent, not batting order.
  2. You're looking at Ford or Ballesteros, which I'm pretty sure I spelled wrong. So Seattle or the Cubs. I think Seattle would want Jax and Castro. I'm not sure either alone gets him. Probably Jax and Castro for Ford and a SP ranked around tenth in their system who the Twins eventually after waiting too long, make a RP? Prospects, despite everyone here thinking they are useless, are highly valued by teams.
  3. What did you want him to do today? Start someone on less rest? Do we think Adams pitches better, based on what we've seen at far? I'm not sure what people expected given they refused to call up Ober.
  4. This is the guy I want most of the realistic guys.
  5. Missing the playoffs for four of five years.... And people want to stick with this manager and group of players?
  6. Janek is in A+ ball isn't he? He's at least two years away the way the Twins move catchers. But, ya, I do that deal every day. Maybe have them throw in a pitcher around tenth or so in their system and move him to relief.
  7. And Ober and Festa. How deep do you think any team is in starting pitching that is good? You wanted a guy that just retired he's so bad.....
  8. The team still exists after 27.....They aren't getting five starters that are good for the five expiring deals. That's not realistic.
  9. Heck, Lee played 15 games at second in the minors and is struggling there in the majors. Something isn't working at playing everyone at short....
  10. How'd that work for Martin? Or Julien? Or Miranda? They just drafted a SS who should be starting in high A, from college. He's not going to jump Culpeper, Houston, or even DeAndrade. Why play him where he'll never actually play? Get him great at CF or LF or third. Pick two positions , not three or four. Or, keep doing this thing that hasn't worked since this FO got here.
  11. Well, the minors are not filled. And you could get lucky. Would you rather just keep Bader and get nothing? I'm not sure your point?
  12. Why is Winokur still playing SS? He's never going to start there in Minnesota, unless like three guys die. And don't tell me they can always move him later. That's not working for this team at all. Move him to the OF or first base.
  13. Why would you expect him to say stronger language in public? Also, these are professionals, swearing isn't going to fix things..... It's the talent.
  14. I'm not in favor of trading Ryan. But I'd want one high end pitcher, one high end hitter, and two more good prospects back. The high end hitter would need to be in AA or AAA and ready next year. They'd be foolish to deal him now, at least wait until the off-season when there are more bidders. even then......
  15. If they don't sell expiring deals this year......
  16. Agree on that last part for sure.
  17. Mettelus signed a three year extension.
  18. No way I'm trading either. They're basically free and likely get better. I guess if you can get a hitter with five years of control who is already good? But who is doing that trade on the other side? I don't know who is better!
