  1. I think you have me confused with someone who thinks the Tigers will trade Skubal. I don't. I simply said if they did, I'd happily include Jenkins as the major part of the return.
  2. This part is all false. As has been explained multiple times, if Snell exercises his option, it's for $15M in 2025, $15M in 2027. Not $38M in 2025. And why would there be no QO? I do agree the Tigers have no reason to trade Skubal though.
  3. Well since the .3 is the current season in which the Twins are 1.5 games from missing the postseason, it seems important.
  4. Nor the idea that hoarding prospects somehow greatly increases their chances. By that theory we should have multiple WS trophies in our case today
  5. False. Houston paid a steep price, but not even close to your claim. #9 and #13, plus Loporfido, per MLB. https://www.mlb.com/news/yusei-kikuchi-astros-blue-jays-trade
  6. This piece needs bumping. Pretty insightful analysis, Mr Birkeland. Pretty insightful indeed. And well out in front of it.
  7. Happily. Jenkins is a high quality prospect. Skubal is a high quality MLB starter. 2.3 years, not 2, by the way, if I can't extend him. And unless the CBA changes, a draft pick compensation if he departs as a FA in 2027.
  8. I would be very reluctant to trade Jenkins, but for Skubal? Yes. All day.
  9. I don't think Festa is anywhere near ready to hold down a rotation spot in a pennant chase, and Paddack is just bad. And even that counts on zero injuries the rest of way. I guess we'll see, as it's looking like the Twins are sitting this deadline out. Be interesting to see what Kikuchi gives Houston.
  10. Yeah, but I think he'd be one of the Twins 5 best starters for the remainder of 2024. When you're 1.5 games from missing the postseason, I think it pays to upgrade, even at the bottom. I doubt anyone in Houston regrets the prospects.
  11. That bullpen usage chart looks pretty ominous with Festa going Tuesday. I'd say it's unlikely Festa goes even 5 full. Lotta outs to get after that.
  12. Hopefully Jeffers finishes the season like he started it.
  13. Wallner second to Sands in effectiveness for Twins hurlers tonight.
  14. I don't see how that refutes my post. My grandma runs faster than Margot, and she's dead.
  15. I don't think he runs fast enough to pull a hammy
  16. Why the hell isn't one of the left handed OFers pinch hitting for Margot?? **** off Rocco
