    Gotta start somewhere... Seems like another excuse we've heard over the years. "Why do this one trade when they need to make several trades?" How much better can the foundation get? They have a top 5ish farm system right now.
  2. Vanimal46
    Because the last time they traded prospects for an established MLB player was what... Kielty for Shannon Stewart in 2003? I'm not asking for the Twins to drain the farm for every player on the trade block. I want one trade... Just one trade.
  3. Vanimal46
    If an inferior package is Romero+ prospects in the 6-10 range I guess. There's always something holding back the Twins from making these kind of trades... Fear may be one of the reasons holding them back.
  4. Vanimal46
    We don't know it would have taken Lewis or Kirilloff... The Yankees #1 prospect doesn't necessarily mean the Twins #1 prospect. Regardless, the fear of trading prospects is why this team is not improving at the MLB level.
  5. Vanimal46
    If I knew Mad Bum will commit to a long term deal with the Twins after this year I'd part with Lewis with no hesitation. That guy is the definition of a work horse ace. He's a unicorn in today's MLB.
  6. Vanimal46
    Does that count as fodder? I've never heard of the other 2 guys but that isn't saying much... I clicked on the Twitter blurb Pseudo posted and one of the responses said Yankees #1 (Sheffield), unranked, and #22 prospects in their system. So I guess yes, this is fodder.

    Hey! There was a blockbuster trade today!! For the Yankees
  8. Vanimal46
    Passan Bomb! So much for Paxton coming here.... Justus Sheffield supposedly is the headliner. Other info to come.

    Yeah I agree they are the powerhouse that won't go away. There's value in having your FB credentials integrate with tons of apps. Saves me the time from signing up and trying to remember what my login/password is for Candy Crush and stuff like that.

    Old friend Kurt Suzuki signs a 2 yr $10 million deal with Washington. Fangraphs posted an article talking about his evolution as a hitter with the axe bat. https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/instagraphs/the-nationals-are-signing-a-new-kurt-suzuki/

    Being a WS hero gets you paid! That's more than any player over 35 received last year.
  12. Vanimal46
    I am definitely interested if there is a purge on the 40 man... Some may be shuffling chairs on the Titanic, like switching Wade for Granite. Other moves may be more appealing.
  13. Vanimal46
    You would think it is easy to find out the Vikings' record in prime time games... But I can't find it. Seems like they lose significantly more prime time games than they win over the years.
  14. Vanimal46
    Thoughts on Facebook? They hit their lowest stock price since January 2017 today.
  15. Vanimal46
    I'm not opposed to adding some of the fringe bullpen arms like Anderson and Reed... ONLY if they replace other fringe bullpen arms like Duffey, Curtiss, and Busenitz. I have seen enough of Duffey and Busenitz to be relatively confident they won't put it all together. I'm not sure why Curtiss didn't get a chance last season. If they want to DFA him too I'm okay with it.
  16. Vanimal46
    Exactly. I consider that trade a win for the Twins. Jepsen at least made an impact for the Twins. Hu barely pitched in the majors in 3 years with Tampa. If Hu was still with the Twins we would have been waiting until now for him to do something? Hard pass.
  17. Vanimal46
    It gets old talking about the same problem (OL) for the last 4+ years... Maybe next year the GM will make it a priority.
  18. Vanimal46
    The OL has to get better... Otherwise it doesn't matter if "overpaid" Cousins is at QB or Tom Brady in his prime. Any QB would look bad behind this group of players.
  19. Vanimal46
    I think we got duped into thinking he is a creative play caller after we got blown out in Philly last year. I'm not impressed with the bland play calling...
  20. Vanimal46
    They did make all in moves and for that I applaud them. Unfortunately it's not working out and we as fans are stuck waiting again for a super bowl window to open up.
  21. Vanimal46
    Minnesota sports: Always waiting for the mythical championship window to open up.
  22. Vanimal46
    The defense is keeping this game close... Let's go Kirk.
  23. Vanimal46
    The Bears look pretty damn good... I don't know if we have to stay up late for this.
  24. Vanimal46
    For sure. But if they magically make the playoffs they will need an ace regardless. All of those pitchers would get demolished in a playoff series outside of SD.
  25. Vanimal46
    The Padres have a loaded farm system with higher FV players than the Twins. Makes sense for the Mets to listen to the Padres' offer.
