  1. This thread is about Farmer..... And he's not helping.... If you want to talk about the other problems, there are plenty of places.
  2. You said it was easy to find relief pitchers any time. If true, and teams will trade for yours, why not trade them and find those relievers just lying around?
  3. So trade Duran and Jax for an overpay, and fill the pen next year with random guys?
  4. I think it will be a Miranda/Julien rotation (with Julien at 2B some too).....unless Julien has forgotten how to hit, which I doubt.
  5. Imagine if they'd have moved Jax to the pen earlier......which some of us suggested more than once, and were told that keeping them as a SP longer was good. What's good? Being in the majors and getting PAID, even as a RP,, not being in AAA....
  6. I literally have no idea what to think at this point. Other than I'd put Julien at first, and lee (or other) at second next year and see what happens.....if AK doesn't take off this year.
  7. I can't see the Twins dealing SWR, who is cheap and has been effective, if not great, as a 23 year old .....
  8. I get it, if I disagree I'm "silly".... Of course I'd rather have Varland be good, I'm not sure how that's in doubt.....
  9. sure, but that hardly makes him untouchable....as Seth implied. It's not like he's ahead of a bunch of guys either....
  10. 4. I have no idea why Winokur is on this list at all. 5. DeAndrade is on my no trade list, unless the return is great. He's a legit SS prospect. 6. Ya, if they could get a doughnut for Prielipp at this point, I'd take it.
  11. Because we know what Varland is, mostly.....you never really know anything about a player until they hit the majors....and he's been MUCH better than Varland. IMO, teams should reward success.....YMMV, of course.
  12. Jenkins is a consensus top 10 prospect, I don't think his value has tanked at all.....not even a little. An aggressive team would move him to AA in July of this year, and to MN in 2025....if he's successful in AA this year. Your timelines are very conservative for a guy ranked this highly. I can't see any way they deal Emma at this point. I think he'd be in MN if he could stop getting hurt.
  13. Also, we don't need to worry about Martin's LT development at this point, imo. He is what he is (though he can improve over time). My point is, it is ok if he only plays 2-3 times a week, and pinch runs......
  14. You aren't getting a good pitching prospect, or anything, for Margot. Their plan is to have him play in Minnesota instead of any of their homegrown players.
  15. No way I deal either OF this year. Lee? He's basically CC and Lewis insurance. What is that worth? Is that worth a controllable pitcher (would cost more than him)? I think it is. I'm happy to give up pitching prospects if I get more than two years of control of a very good SP....
  16. I love varland in the bullpen.... I'm not convinced he's a starter or that anyone would trade for him thinking he was one? I'd have preferred doing this versus the Yankees, they were losing those games anyway.... Not that I think this is a guaranteed loss at all, he's got ability. .... But if you're just trying to get some rest for everyone, and are going to pitch a lesser guy, do it in a game you are likely to lose, imo.
  17. Martin can play second and the OF ... And he's fast. He should be in Minnesota over Farmer, and it isn't close. Leadership? They have zero rookies or even second year players on the roster, let that sink in, other than Lewis. How many leaders do they need?
