Esmil Valencia fits the profile. A ball, ranked low in the Houston system. edit: this isn't the actual guy! Just me looking at the middle of the fangraphs rankings for an A ball guy.
-
Well, this FO hasn't done that well either, so hopefully someone else is in charge by then.
-
1000000000000000000%

Are they? They just traded for a 28 yo OF who can't hit. They still have Ryan and Jax. Heck, and Varland at this point might be gone before they are good again.
-
I was OK with dealing him, as this core isn't good enough. On the theory that might mean this FO and manager play all the yutes. But then they trade FOR OUTMAN, who is old and bad.......so I have no idea at this point what the plan actually is.
-
I always say they take the money, but no....not unless there are new owners and a new FO.
-
Let that sink in everyone! But hey, Otuman is hitting like Vazquez....so that's, um, good?
-
I hope unlike some other Twins, he really likes living in MN! Because I can't see why you'd want to be a Twin at this point.
-
I'd ask to if I was him.
-
Negative fwar for the last two years......and 28. On a team supposedly punting this year and trying to be good next year?
-
More truth.
-
I can't believe I"m typing this, but I'd rather they play Kiersey. No team that is trying to build for next year or the year after should deal for and play a 28 year old who has been worse than replacement level.
-
No truer statement was ever made on this site.
-
He's not going to get better, in case he's part of the answer, not playing.
-
Adding bad veterans is literally 180 degrees from what I want this team to be doing.
-
by help you mean, about like Kiersey? Why would you deal anyone for this guy? Mind. Boggling. Negative fwar last year and this year. What is even the point of this deal? I am truly confused on this one.
-
I 100% believe money was an issue, but I agree with this part.
-
Oh man, I forgot Abel was from a rival HS here in OR (I'm an assistant HS golf coach). I am liking this deal even less! :)
-
I'm not worried.....just didn't love seeing that. Martin isn't going anywhere. Nor is Ohl.
-
Fangraphs: Tait: 6, Abel: 14, Mendez: 30
-
I would hope so!
-
Just saw Mendez is rule 5 eligible this year, so he'll need to be added to the 40 man, Like the deal slightly less now.
-
I'll bet keep.
-
I can't imagine for 1 minute this reduces the value of the team in a sale.
-
I mean, does any billionaire care about anyone else? Especially customers?
