How many years have they made the playoffs with Ryan lately? It's time to start over.
-
I like this less and less the longer we go. Old. Mediocre. This team refuses to actually TRY. All half measures.
-
He's 35? So I'm not sure we should count on him pitching that long....
-
The definition of meh. Maybe they can unlock something?
-
Right sizing payroll after winning a playoff series has cost them tens of millions in ticket sales, maybe more.
-
Agreed, but that sure wasn't the tone, imo, of your post. What should they do with Ryan?
-
Draft lots of pitchers. Early, like every pick after one.

There is nothing wrong with the city. People think there is....

Ya, those Ryan and Bradley trades? Yuck. Look, they aren't signing him to an extension. They aren't winning the WS this year. Trade him. The only strategy that actually works for winning it all is being in the top ten of salaries. That's not happening here. So, what to do? Maximize your odds by acquiring lots of assets and hope.

Agreed, but now is not the time to add ...

Lee has been a top ten 3b since moving there.

Jeff Passan Identifies Two Potential Twins Trade Targets
Mike Sixel replied to Cody Christie's topic in Minnesota Twins Talk
Yup. I stand corrected on my earlier post. I still doubt they trade for him. -

I mean, we already have a thread on this. Maybe write something not already written? -
CLE literally walked how many guys recently in relief? It happens.

Trading Ryan Jeffers Would Be the Wrong Move for the Twins
Mike Sixel replied to Sam Caulder's topic in Minnesota Twins Talk
Madness. He's a FA at the end of the year, and they aren't drawing fans ......trading him isn't going to hurt attendance. As for the QO, I'd say he MIGHT take it, also, you only get a pick a year later....and he's not in the minors, so that guy is much further away than whomever you trade for. Trading for a guy in AA (or AA and one in low A) puts them on the same schedule as their top prospects..... -
Aren't Griffin and Gausman Joe Ryan? They aren't dealing for him. He's got 1.5 years of control left?
-
I mostly listen to music or nothing when sports are on TV....
-
Agreed on all counts.
-
I have no idea how Ober is doing this.. nice series.

Most TV and radio broadcasting is unlistenable.... So any change, occasionally, is a good idea. Plus, given who I'm seeing on what side.... I'm confident I'm right.

I think they will. They have nine pitchers or catchers rated 45 or 45+....
-
I think they'll hold him down so he can win rookie of the year next year, maybe. Really depends on health of him and Buxton and where they are in the race.
-
I think we'll know a lot more in 2-3 weeks.....but you almost have to deal Jeffers, unless you somehow can't get a good prospect for him. Ryan nets you the most, and if they are 2+ games under .500 at the deadline, should be dealt. Otherwise, I can understand them not dealing him (though I probably would). Bell and Larnach? Tough call, but I think you can deal one or both of them, even if you are in the race. Obviously, if they are well below .500, both should go. No to Clemens. He's a keeper for the next few years.
