  1. did I say that? If so, that's not what I thought I said. I thought I said I'd be willing to deal him for a top of the line pitcher (with others also leaving).
  2. I don't understand your point at all. Most teams aren't signing him, and I'm offering a way for the Twins to do so.
  3. Another option is to say "Hey, the owners have told us to use $20 million of our BAM money as a bonus for CC." 20 million up front as a signing bonus, and $30 million a year for 10 years.
  4. 10 year deal first five years: $25 MM next five years: $20 MM Free agent after that....with deferred payments of $10MM per year for the next ten years. Biggest contract this year (until Judge signs) total dollar wise. I'd be happy to go to $30MM per year the first five years, and drop the deferred if needed (that would make it $7.5MM per year those ten dead money years).
  5. I'd 100% rather sign Correa and deal Marin or Lewis or Lee (and whatever) for pitching. Since there is only one great FA pitcher left.....that seems like a much better use of resources.
  6. Fair take. We just don't agree.
  7. Blunder. They aren't good enough as is, and have gotten worse all off season. Huge blunder on their part.
  8. quoting myself, this likely isn't enough either......more like add in Ober or Varland.
  9. Arraez plus Winder or Balavovich+ or something like that.....
  10. Just go: ten year deal The first five years: $25MM The next five years: $20MM The next ten years (you know, dead money): $10-12 MM That's the biggest money deal ever......and leaves them money to sign another hitter and RP (or trade for a SP).
  11. Based on having Polanco at 2nd, and one of Miranda/Kiriloff/Larnach at first, and one of those plus Wallner at DH? No, just no. Though I'd deal Kepler to free up money and RF for Wallner.
  12. SD likely wants to extend their RF.....so I'm not sure, unless they deal a player off. I agree on Chicago.....CO is badly enough run to do 6 years, but I doubt it. Seattle could afford this, and it would be great for a couple years for them.
  13. Finally watching season three of Orville. Either it isn't as good as the first two (I thought two was quite good) or Discovery and even the new Star Trek are just so much better that I'm spoiled.
  14. there is only 1 ace-type unsigned at this point.......it isn't just the cost, but the availability.
  15. I don't think the Dodgers do that length either. Or Philly (though maybe them). That leave TX and LAA and ? that would go that long?
  16. I'd love signing him, and moving Lewis to LF/CF. That would be ideal. Then deal Larnach, Winder (or whomever at that value) and Martin for one of Milwaukee's pitchers (or Lopez from Miami) plus a catching prospect (likely they'd need to put another minor league player in that deal from MN side).
  17. I'm guessing vesting player options for year 5 and 6 based on health. Last good SP in free agency.....I just can't see the Twins winning this bidding war. Go trade for a SP and sign a SS or OF (are there any OF we want? no idea).
  18. I saw that....I'm saying I don't think he gets it. But I think he gets at least 4.
  19. I can't see MN paying what it will take, given what DeGrom and Verlander just got paid. I'm thinking AT LEAST 4 years and $120 million, more like 4/140. That's a lot of money........
  20. This is how I feel for sure. I'd want at least one guy that can play this year, though (unless they get, you know, an insane offer of a top 10 prospect + or so).
  21. Hated that Joe Ryan trade, huh. Or the Gray trade? They've had hits and misses......
  22. I'd deal him to Milwaukee, for example. Who else has top tier pitching and needs a 2B? (and yes, Milwaukee needs it, now that they've made that awful deal).
  23. Is this a Ranball article posted in the wrong area?
  24. Ya. No. Not close. At least one of Lewis or Lee, plus what you typed.
