  1. Since the Tigers just did the opposite of that that would seem unlikely. Minor League deal maybe. And the Tigers are a team looking to take the next step. Shouldn't we be doing the same?
  2. Then put Gordon as SS for the first half of 2022, or resign Simmons (far more likely to bounce back offensively than Goodrum is to suddenly become Derek Jeter) push your cards to the middle of the table and call it good.
  3. Not sure that bringing in a career .230 whose presence would mostly serve to block guys like Lewis, Martin, Gordon and maybe even Cavaco, Soularie & Steer would accomplish.
  4. Braves and Astros thrived with below average catching because they had World Series caliber teams surrounding them. Not sure that applies here.
  5. Seems a village has lost its idiot.......
  6. Gonna be a lot of pissed off Twins fans when we realize we could have kept both Buxton & Berrios for less than Carlos Correa's gonna get from someone.
  7. We'll soon be looking up and seeing that Buxton & Berrios are both signed to long term extensions for a combined total of less than Carlos Correa. And we'll be HOPING that a prospect pans out. Good Luck.
  8. If the offer isn't $125 Million, Buxton's not staying here. Gonna be a sad day when we look up and see that we could have kept both Buxton & Berrios for less than Carlos Correa will sign for.
  9. Stroman's not signing here for 5 years $100 million any more than Buxton's re-signing here for 5 years $84 million. Unreasonable free agent expectations are a waste of time.
  10. If they've never struggled, they've already broken out.
  11. So what you're saying is to go get a guy who is basically Simmons without the Gold Glove. AND give something other than cash up for him. I dunno.
  12. By definition, breakout candidates almost have to be guys who've struggled.
  13. The 5 years sounds right but the total price is more likely gonna be $125 million.
  14. $15 million a year is NOT going to get the job done on the Buxton front.
  15. BUST STATUS? At 22 with fewer than 500 professional plate appearances?
  16. If only our LF and leading run producer from 2018-2020 were available......
  17. Buxton's not settling for 7/110
  18. And yet he's not signed..
  19. And yet he's not signed....
  20. If we don't extend Buxton a LOT of things are going to look different. We'd better acclimate ourselves to the fact that it's going to cost a whole lot more money than most Twins fans will think he's worth. Saw somebody recently suggest on here that 5 years $84 million would get it done. Laughed my $@! off.
  21. Better off trading him than pretending he might be an outfielder.
  22. You keep thinking that and dreaming of duckies and bunnies and beautifully unique sparkleponies.
  23. That's so cute. Thinking that Verlander's gonna sign here. Counting on neither Kiriloff or Larnach to flame out. Thinking that Buxton's gonna settle for 5 years $84 million. (Up that $84 by 50% to $126 and he MIGHT answer the phone. Don't know if he'd sign but at least he'd take the call.) Guess I shouldn't be surprised. considering we're talking about a team whose Pitcher of the Year plays for another team. P.S. That's the pitcher we should be throwing $20 million a year at but if we want to go with the 39 year old guy who am I to object. At least we might get Kate Upton in the stands.
  24. Why not? He's the only guy on the team that played 2021 with any heart. Can't have that.
