    The timing issue with Larnach is the one that rears it's head when he tries to put his bat on a breaking pitch.
  2. dxpavelka
    Twins are said to have the best rotation in MLB. But sure, let's move a RP with a better ERA than all but two of those starters. Why fans don't run teams...

    Lopez' recent "absence" is believed to have something to do with the health of his child. This move allows him to be closer to said child. But, sure, assume the worst.
  4. dxpavelka
    Guess I don't worry about it.
  5. dxpavelka
    Plenty of 3B options: Lewis, Polanco, Lee.

    If you think the bag of donuts we'd get offered for Gallo would help us I'd do it. However, it MIGHT be fun to see him break the team strikeout record...
  7. dxpavelka
    Giolito wasn't getting traded here anyway and the Angels are probably the one AL destination where his acquisition is least likely to negatively impact us.
  8. dxpavelka
    More to this trade than meets the eye.
  9. dxpavelka
    There you go. If Teoscar is leading the league in strikeouts and NOT playing for us that's a problem that needs to get fixed. We can't expect Joey Gallo to set the league team strikeout record by himself.....
  10. dxpavelka
    Don't these teams understand that we WANT these players?
  11. dxpavelka
    Again, maybe a solid idea but if you break it down a little further you're looking at half of Berrios' career for two months of Bellinger.
  12. dxpavelka
    Consider that Bellinger will likely be incredibly difficult to re-sign and may well end up right back with the Cubs. Just sayin

    Either we're on our way to getting healthy enough to win the World Series or we need help. Not sure what we've seen thus far to make us believe it will be the former rather than the latter. AND, another funny thing about guys getting healthy: Injuries CAN also occur between now and the end of October. Nice to have more options available should that happen.

    Actually Berrios made $15 Million last year. 28th highest for a starting pitcher. He won 12 games. 26th most for a starter. In retrospect, solid deal. He's making $15 Million this year as well. 33rd for a starting pitcher. He's on pace to win 13 this year. Which would put him 23rd. 23rd production for 33rd pay is what I like to call value. I'd take it. AND, had we not made that trade we might not have put ourselves in position to need to make the Mahle trade. Possibly not even the Arraez trade. Just sayin
  15. dxpavelka
    Berrios so much wanted to be a free agent that he re-signed with the team he was playing for. $19 million for seven years for the best home grown pitcher you have developed in a generation is actually quite reasonable.
  16. dxpavelka
    Still suffering the after effects of Berrios trade.
  17. dxpavelka
    How can you overlook trading Jeff Holly for Fernando Arroyo?
  18. dxpavelka
    If memory serves me right, and, no, I haven't done the requisite research: Most of those guys left as free agents and we got nothing for them.
  19. dxpavelka
    Was thinking about this last night as I was debating, in my mind, the path forward with Julien & Kirilloff both basically bat mostly left handed hitters probably best suited to playing first base. In Ed we trust.
  20. dxpavelka
    Do it. Kiriloff and Julien are likely competing for one spot long term and Julien looks to be the more promising hitter. To me.
  21. dxpavelka
    If I had a nickel for every easy match I've seen over the last 50 years that DIDN'T lead to a trade......
  22. dxpavelka
    Better than anything we've got against lefties.
  23. dxpavelka
    If so, it will be because a much more ballyhooed prospect missed.
  24. dxpavelka
    Twins will make a number of moves at the deadline which will receive near universal praise from the local media and fans. One or more of those moves will not pan out and the team will be ripped by the same fans and media that initially praises the moves. Twins deadline primer 101.
  25. dxpavelka
    Fairchild is interesting. .885 OPS vs. Lefties in the minors but Senzel is nearly 1.000 in the big leagues and has brings 1200 big league plate appearances to the table. Fairchild not so many.
