  1. Maybe, but I'm not betting on that and punting the current year with Gray, Mahle, Maeda and others on the roster..... Not adding to this team is giving up on this roster, frankly. I recall when people said the Twins were all set up with Mauer and Morneau.....you just don't know the future health or production of any player. The division is still ripe for the taking. Go for it.
  2. Which two? There are zero stars havable at that price, any year. Also, sign CC and deal some prospects for a legit number 2 pitcher.....
  3. You'd rather pay a pitcher (who I think is older) 180 million over six years? Brave.
  4. So, the owners should keep the money and not pay players?
  5. Tatis will opt out after this year ... They aren't dealing anyone unless they get pitching back.
  6. Where do you plan to get great pitching? It's not like Lewis or Buxton is healthy.....
  7. If he's in the majors less than two years from being drafted, that would be amazing.
  8. I keep reading hitters are safer. Which player was in the majors, healthy, last year, Lewis or Greene? The Twins can't afford to sign an elite pitcher, and no one trades them..... Draft one.
  9. I'm really surprised at the tone here..... The delta in likelihood of stardom at pick 5 to 13 is staggering when you look at the research. This is nothing to be anything but very happy about.
  10. There one great pitcher left in free agency. He wants a six year deal. And several teams are bidding. A trade is much more likely.
  11. Three or four good to great pitchers have signed. There were three great ones available. What, realistically, do you expect? Did you expect the Mets not to sign one? They acquired a number two in a trade last year......
  12. I mean, you'd have to put in more than just Arraez for that.....
  13. Rocco isn't making that decision.......so you'd have to get rid of the FO and the manager and others, I'd guess. Maybe even Max.
  14. This. The Twins do NOT use him in CF anymore. I don't know why people keep saying he is available there. If you wait for minor league players to prove they belong, they never come up. Ever. You can't prove it in the minors.....so that argument holds no weight for me. Max hasn't hit well for a corner OF other than 1 year. His D is very good....but can't hit and he isn't healthy. I am not opposed to keeping him, but he's fine, maybe almost "good". But that's it, IMO. The minor league players have the potential to be much better hitters. NO ONE ran on Larnach after a few games last year. Wallner? I'm not going to judge him on D in 133 innings......Then there is AK and Celestino and Lewis (if they sign CC). He's going to give the Twins 1.5-2.3 WAR. Not great, not awful. I'm not sure that's enough to keep him around (assuming they use the savings on something).
  15. We learned there is plenty of money to spend, if teams are willing.
  16. There is one great pitcher left in free agency, and he wants a 6 year deal.......They are much better off signing CC and dealing one of Lee or Lewis as part of a package to get a great pitcher.
  17. Rocco was talking about having dinner with him last week....
  18. I'm not sure your point......he was meh in 2020.....and bad in 2021.....and bad in 2022. To be clear, I think O, D, and baserunning all matter.......all of them.
  19. No one is arguing he's enough to get one on his own.
  20. Rosario wasn't a good hitter. Also, I'm not sure we'll ever agree on how to develop and manage people.....
  21. the problems are pitching and hitting waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more than defense.
