  1. This, and they need someone to play these positions......I don't know if we'll see any more position player promotions (of top prospects) any time soon......
  2. Not listing Miranda as an option seems like a huge miss in this treatise. You completely ignored internal options. Margot plays a lot against RHP, and he's not good on defense at all. Saying his batting line, which is well below league average, and even more below corner OF average is acceptable? Ugh. Santana has been good, no doubt. Miranda could have been that good, and they'd have had money. That money could be useful at the break....
  3. Outside catcher, I can't think of any position where players are blocked. Certainly Festa isn't.
  4. Pop up ads blocking the site again on my phone...
  5. The one non-pitcher today should feel pretty good they liked him enough not to take another pitcher!
  6. Health, health, health. With health, I think MN catches CLE. If CC or Buxton is hurt/hurt, good luck to MN. If one of the top 3 starters gets hurt, yikesmcyikeyson.
  7. AL Central 1:51 The Twins and White Sox match up very well on a Crochet deal. Is them being in the division a complete non starter? Steve Adams 1:53 It's generally best to just assume both parties prefer not to be haunted by that type of trade for years to come. White Sox don't want to watch Crochet carve them up in 2026. Twins don't want to watch Brooks Lee or Emmanuel Rodriguez or Walker Jenkins or whoever beating up on them for six/seven years somewhere down the road. The last trade of any note I can remember those two teams making was Francisco Liriano for Eduardo Escobar and Pedro Hernandez, which I inexplicably remember off the top of my head because apparently I am a sicko.
  8. "restricted" to a 3 Win player is a very nice place to be....he was on pace for more than 4 last year, btw....
  9. We can, and should. We just need to not set those dreams as expectations.... I'd like to think they can do this if they want, I mean, they can....I just don't see it as likely. Alas, as you say.
  10. wow. Aggressive, and I approve of this.
  11. Zero chance they deal Rodriguez. Zero. Prielipp? He has no value right now. I'd be shocked if they deal Morris or Matthews, but not completely.
  12. It's possible MSP is just not a baseball town at all.....Clearly being a good team isn't enough.
  13. I think worrying about what position the 60th overall pick in a weak draft is going to play is likely too much worrying for me....
  14. It's round seven.... If anyone from here on out has one really good trait, take them....
  15. It's literally completely random odds wise at this point. They seriously lack catching.... So I figured there would be catchers taken.... Mostly surprised at the lack of pitchers.
  16. That's likely why they picked a hitter at 60..... There just aren't many this year.
  17. Pitchers, more pitchers, a couple catchers. That's what is coming, with one OF.
  18. It's every city. I live in Portland, and we know people that won't go into any part of the city. My neighborhood has a super low crime rate, and people ask if we have flack jackets.... Announcing you are cutting payroll during the playoffs is bad marketing. Letting St Peter open his mouth is bad marketing, as he often blames the fans. The Twins need new business leadership, but that's clearly not coming. If they add significant payroll, I'll be truly shocked.
  19. I have no issues with any of the picks, even if I'd have gone different routes. The second pick sure sounds like Austin Martin....
