That's literally what we've been discussing. If not, what were we?
-
Then why come and post?
-
Except the TWins didn't limit Priellip.
-
Who said bet on 9 players? I said don't trade a whole lot of prospects for a starting SS when you have a top 50 prospect at the position. Because you will have to trade 2-3 top prospects to get a starting SS with multiple years of control. Context matters. That is not the same thing at all....not even close.

Houston will be up in 27 if he's healthy all year. He's a college player in AA, and a top 50 prospect (once you take out graduations). That's the same path Culpepper was on this year.

Replace "Reds" with Twins....I assume is your point? Which is correct.
-
There is one good second baseman in free agency, and he's been traded three straight years, and is a one trick pony. I'm not sure who is trading a very good established player with years of control? And the cost to acquire said player would be three legit prospects.
-
Houston is 57 on fangraphs, before taking out graduates, and his second half....
-
I'd say it's a lock Jenkins, Lackey and Houston are top fifty on multiple lists. Quick and one other will be top 100 on several, and one or two others will be on one list.
-
What are you in this thread?
-
Fear is no way to run a team. You want to give up other assets to get a shortstop, when you have a top fifty prospect in AA? That's one way to guarantee you don't have prospect depth. I guess we'll just disagree and move on. Both sides have made their point.
-
I'm not sure your point? Houston is next man up. He'll be the starting short stop by July. Why would I trade for a short stop given that's my plan? Which it should be.
-
Because I'm not giving up assets for a backup you don't want to play much.
-
Right.
-
They aren't going to drop prices. So the money goes to owners, who do nothing, or players. I have no idea your point.
-
You're trading for a shortstop with Houston likely up next year? No.
-
Let Sabato hit. WTF are we even doing at this point (assuming he is not hurt)?
-
I still think Roden has a spot on this roster next year.....
-
How many teams have even 5 good starters? I think people need to adjust their expectations.....but to each their own.

I'll be shocked if Lackey is a Twin next year, but also happy.

The FA class is awful. Just sign Houston, Jenkins, Culpepper, Bradley, Keascell and Lee to big deals. The only other option is trading for an expensive guy, but the only position I'd do that for is first base or SP. And there won't be a 1B available that will have 3+ years of control that a team will trade.......
-
Is that really true? Abel and Matthews could be in AAA to start the year.......that's better than, I'd guess, 90% of teams. This idea the pipeline is only "valid" if it comes from draft picks is silliness, imo.

Twins (Bradley) vs Giants (Molina): 09/22/26, 8:45 PM
Mike Sixel replied to Brock Beauchamp's topic in Archived Game Threads
Lee is one of the best picks that first round. Just a bad first round overall. Not the best pick.... But looking like one of the best. -
Blocked. Have a good day.

Nm. Totally not worth it.
