  1. You’re saying we are going to lose 75% of our games the rest of the season because of trading Kepler?
  2. Love it! We are shooting for upside over the status quo (Varland) and a journeyman that won’t have a future here (Boushley).
  3. Tampa will be sellers… That’s just what they do. And this is the weakest Rays team in quite some time. CWS should trade Luis Robert but they don’t have to - he’s under control for 3.5 years. I don’t see Texas or Houston selling because Seattle isn’t that good of a team.
  4. Wouldn’t be opposed to that. Some team is going to zig when everyone else zags and get a pretty sweet trade return. I’m hoping the Twins are the team that zigs.
  5. Kepler would easily be the best OF available on the market if we were to trade him. And frankly, I don’t think there will be much of a drop off in team performance if we do it.
  6. Festa was scratched from his scheduled start today for St Paul, so… It’s happening?!
  7. The Twins are fun to follow right now that’s for sure.
  8. Do we add the Snakes to the list as well of games to throw out to continue a 110 win pace?
  9. Left handed and breathing can keep a player around far past their expiration date.
  10. Rob Manfred needs your sweet, delicious cash to subscribe to the AZ Snakes stream.
  11. Just goes to show how difficult it is to maintain production in the current day MLB. He’s far from the first or last person to have a sophomore slump.
  12. Personally I see it as a great opportunity to give Festa an extended look for 3-4 weeks. Then if/when Paddack is ready to return, Festa can head back to St Paul with a game plan to work on the rest of the season.
  13. FWIW Hayes is thinking Festa gets the call.
  14. I would take the risk because I agree with you. Festa has the highest upside. I’m not too concerned about the 40 man spot. They can move Stewart to the 60 day IL, or DFA Josh Winder.
  15. This could be a good time to shut down Paddack until the AS break, giving him 4 weeks of rest. It’s also a good time to give David Festa a 3-4 start audition and see if they really need to add starting pitching in July.
  16. As others have said, I’m not pissed off at the MLB team. I’m pissed off at DSP and the Pohlads for the terrible TV situation. With attendance this low the next season after winning a playoff series, I’ve got to imagine DSP’s seat is hot. I don’t know whether the Twins are good or not good yet. Baseball is so top heavy with 5-6 elite teams, 20 “competitive” teams, and 5 awful teams.
  17. Concur. Hiding him on the 26 man roster doesn’t benefit anyone. The DFA conversation needs to happen sooner than later.
  18. Very true. Also it’s still early in the year to be more conservative with the IL. Call up Wallner who’s swinging a hot bat. We need a left handed middle of the order bat to step up.
  19. Was he better than Willie Mays Hayes?
  20. I too like to go fishing after it rains. The fish are biting this morning.
  21. They might get an hour in to make it an official contest before it starts up again. Evidently the tarp is off and they're squeegeeing water to the drains.
  22. I'm shocked it's holding off this long. Lots of dark, ominous clouds in the southwest from my place.
