    He got 11 years, $280 Million from SD. From the beginning I've said offer Correa 8 years, $275 Million. With a two year opt out he might take that and go for another bite at the apple when he's 30 (Boegarts' current age). If in two years one of Lewis, Martin, Lee (or Miller) isn't ready to take over full time at SS it would be time to blow it up anyway.

    How many times over the years have we been burned by something the we thought was the exception that was actually a trend or a new reality? Regardless, the guy hit under .210 in total last year. Not somebody I'm betting the mortgage on.
  3. dxpavelka
    I'd be in. Suspect we'd not be the only ones.
  4. dxpavelka
    It took Buck 4 years to get on base consistently enough to steal bases.
  5. dxpavelka
    Not sure which problem bringing in a left handed hitting catcher that hit .205 against right handed pitchers last year solves. The target needs to be Gabriel Moreno. He hits right handed but hits right handers well. Sure he'll cost but the return will be worth it.

    What if they're looking for a guy who stays IN the lineup most of the time?
  7. dxpavelka
    Borderline great is still great. Which means he's better than anyone in a Twins uniform that doesn't wear # 25. I actually don't mind the opt outs--IF one of Lewis, Lee or Martin pans out as a big league SS, Correa opts out and we wish him well.

    Moving Polanco to open a spot for Gordon would be a great idea if Gordon could play BETTER than Polanco. Has not yet proven able to do so.
  9. dxpavelka
    Not that much difference between them but on a team that scored less than 700 runs last year I'm having a hard time getting past Narvaez' .206 batting average last year.
  10. dxpavelka
    Probably looking at 6 years $195 Million for a guy who probably slots in as the 4th best SP in the AL. We can dream.
  11. dxpavelka
    If all the guys we have on the horizon pan out it's a smart move. I'm CERTAIN they all will.
  12. dxpavelka
    And the LAST thing we (the Twins fan base) needs is a reason to complain.
  13. dxpavelka
    Not really a need. Highly unlikely that we sign any other big time, big name, big dollar free agent other than Correa. And even if we do it would most likely be a short term rental anyway. IF we sign someone else to a big contract and can't afford Correa we pivot away from him at that point. We've already got a plan b.
  14. dxpavelka
    Gabriel Moreno. Find a way.
  15. dxpavelka
    Fairly certain those two or three won't be signing here.
  16. dxpavelka
    Your starting lineup looks solid. How many of them are on the IL by Patriot's Day?
  17. dxpavelka
    Cave's a fine ballplayer if you don't need to rely on him to play in more than 65 games a year. Otherwise he's a .235 hitter with limited power and no more than an average glove. Ditto for Garlick. Good luck to the Phillies.
  18. dxpavelka
    You can't make soup out of potential.
  19. dxpavelka
    This team (and fan base) spends too much time worrying about having too much talent. Such an issue will never exist.
  20. dxpavelka
    Gonna have to be an awful big trade. All I keep reading about is how we need to get rid of so many players because we just have way too many. Frankly, I'm shocked that we haven't won the last few World Series' and aren't prohibitive favorites going forward. Vegas must have the lines all wrong.
  21. dxpavelka
    I don't know. At least Oakland grows talent. Just doesn't keep it.
  22. dxpavelka
    Maybe?
  23. dxpavelka
    Sometimes the organization just mishandles the situation. I remember when the Timberwolves moved Marbury. They should have brought him into the office and gave him two options. Sign the extension or get traded to the Clippers. NOBODY wanted to be traded to the Clippers at that time.
  24. dxpavelka
    Don't think they're moving Rodriguese. Not for what we'd be offering.
  25. dxpavelka
    Old enough to remember when Twins fans would have howled in derision at the thought of trading a guy to save $10 Million.
