Santana for MVP!

2016 LF-????? CF-Buxton RF-Arcia 3B-Sano SS-Santana 2B-Polanco or Dozier(start one, trade the other) 1B-Mauer C-Suzuki

The only problem i have with Gardy is Rick Anderson. If we fire Anderson and Gardy doesn't like it, then show him the door.

Milone throws 88 on his fastball. sounds like a classic Minnesota Twins soft tosser

CF- Denard Span on a one year deal as a fill in player till Buxton"s arrival in 2016. LF- Bring back Torii Hunter... Fan Favorite (one of my all time favorite twins), Good clubhouse guy, can teach Buxton things when Buxton gets here in 2016, and finally Torii is a Twin period not an Angel and definitely not a Tiger so let him retire a Twin. Two year deal with an option for a third. C- Russell Martin is a good catcher with both the bat and on the field. Two year deal. Add a possible backup on a minor league deal? SP- If he's not a lefty don't bother. Twins need an Ace, the best kind of Ace's are lefties. Add Jon Lester hopefully we could be a dark horse and snatch him up for the future. I think Lester would like those big fences too. Six year deal. 3B- Just stick with Plouffe but if you feel like his defense is bad then make him the DH and sign Chase Headley I guess.

we should have asked "will you take Corriea too?"

Suzuki for Ramsey sounds good. could we get a 10-20 prospect for Duensing?

With Yadier Molina out till the playoffs the Cards are looking for a catcher badly and with the Cards lack of lefties out in the bullpen this year my question is what could we get from the Cardinals for Kurt Suzuki and Brian Duensing?

we could package him up with a reliever and possibly get a more valuable prospect.

There are 3 guys we know we are trading, Suzuki, Willingham, and Correia and you can add Morales as a likely. here are 4 more guys that could and should be traded with reasons why: Plouffe. lets face it Plouffe is not going to get any better, offensively wise at least. Which really makes him a solid player at best and with Sano slowly creeping his way to the majors Plouffe is going to loose his job. Then what? keep him as a bench player? well he would be limited to 3rd and maybe 1st and not the OF like everyone wants him to be, Ryan said that he didn't work out in the OF. So he's limited to positions that are going to be locked down for the future. DH? Parms, Collabello, Arcia, Pinto, Vargas, maybe Morales are taking care of that spot. Best option is to trade Plouffe while he has some value and while hes relatively young. Fien. Its Fien's career year, he's 30 and we have younger and possibly better pitchers coming up through the minors. He could help us get a solid prospect if we can package him up with Suzuki and send them to St. Louis. Guerrier. We all want to see Guerrier get traded because he was the past and not the part of the future of this team and he's 35. Thanks for the memories Matty, see you some day on a different team. Duensing. Duensing like Fien is having a good season and could help us get something with value in return. he's a lefty which helps, he's 31 and we have better relief pitchers coming up. For some reason i feel like he's the least likely to be traded out of all of the 8 players. I would like to see all of these players traded to get with some valuable prospects.

With Sano on the horizon the twins should trade Plouffe. He's not going to become any better (only defensively) and he is already in his prime years as a player. Next year you can have Nunez, Escobar, and Romero battle for the starting job in ST till Sano is ready. I have a few teams who could use Plouffe as a 3B: 1. New York Yankees as much as i hate the Yankees i feel like they could be in the mix for a wild card spot and also a 3B. After A-rods suspension they have had a huge gap at 3rd and have tried to fill it with veterens like Kelly Johnson and Brendan Ryan but with no success, so they tried guys in there minor league system like Yangervis Solarte and Zelous Wheeler. Solarte had some success in the begging of the season only later to faal apart and be sent down to AAA and Wheeler has only had limited time at 3rd so far (10 games). If they think they can contend (which its the Yankees, they always have think they have a shot) they could use Plouffe at 3B. 2. Kansas City Royals The Royals started the 2014 season with a platoon at 3B thinking it would help the team. The platoon consists of Mike Moustakas (Left) and Danny Valencia (Right) and its been pretty lopsided as Valencia has done well in his role (2HR 10RBI .293AVG .740OPS in 31 Games) while Moustakas hasn't (10HR 36RBI .192AVG .672OPS in 75 Games). Valencia not likely to become full time starter at 3B because of his ability to hit only left handed pitching with success. They could use Plouffe at 3rd for their run at the postseason. 3. LA Angels A trade in the offseason to get David Freese from the Cardinals for Peter Bourjos seemed good so Freese could play at 3rd for the Angels. lets just say both have been a disappointment but we are focusing on Freese. Freese has been ok at best with 4 homers with 31 RBIs and a .253 Average in 71 games this season. It seems like they could still use a third basemen while Plouffe isn't a huge upgrade he's an upgrade non the less.

This is me

Dozier strikes out.... (Window Breaks)

I wanna see Carlos Gomez swing out his shoes in the HR derby seriously though his hat would fall off every time he swings the bat and he'd fall at least twice and maybe throw his bat once. That would be entertainment at his best than for the other 7 players have them be... AL Josh Willingham Miguel Cabrera Chris Davis Jose Bautista NL Giancarlo Stanton Justin Morneau Ben Revere- see if he can muscle one out

Price, Hughes, Meyer, Gibson, Nolasco? Very unlikely we get David Price but if we in it by the Allstar break than gather up a prospect package and ship it to Tampa for Price and maybe a reliever?
