    They're not sitting on them. They're clinging to their precious, precious prospects like grim death dreaming of someday that will never come.

    I suspect the Astros are going to pull of MadBaum.

    At this point I pretty much agree with this. Minor, Kennedy, a LOOGY and the Dyson idea's not terrible either. Especially with Buxton...well you know. My expectation is that they do nothing with "Couldn't find the right fit" "Best trades are the ones you don't make" quotes incoming. Life as a MN sports fan.

    If they only acquire one more reliever, the 7th spot can be a Rochester shuttle of Thorpse/Steshak/Smeltzer/Stewart. In an ideal world we acquire another reliever and a starter (say Syndergaard and Kennedy. The bullpen would be: Rogers Kennedy Romo Duffy Harper May Perez

    If there is any market for Schoop, trade him before Wednesday.

    The Twins get about one season to go for it per decade and this is one of them. The Yankees rotation is a mess. Houston is good, but we already showed we can hang with them. Odorizzi is back to 2018 form. We have no chance in games 2 or 3 of any play-off series with our current rotation. They need another starter, whether it be Stroman, Syndergaard or someone else.

    Lol. Some of y'all are hilarious. "I'd rather have Belisle." Really? He has 17 saves. No he's not great. But he's better than what we have, and we gave up a guy we would have possibly lost as Rule V and got a decent pitching prospect on top of it. This can't be their only move though.
  8. howeda7
    It's funny because it's true.
  9. howeda7
    #s aside, wasn't it pretty widely reported that he was a jerk and a problem in the clubhouse? Why would you bring that back?
  10. howeda7
    Some of y'all are awfully pessimistic. 26-37 the rest of the way given their schedule? Even I can't be that dire.
  11. howeda7
    I'm good with trading anyone but Lewis and Graterol.
  12. howeda7
    Why is Mike Morin in Philly and Blake Parker is still on this team?
  13. howeda7
    Certainly may well have had Schoop give it a shot since his AB's were worthless anyway.
  14. howeda7
    I'd do the MadBaum/Smith package for anything within reason that doesn't include Lewis/Graterol and then add Ian Kennedy. The Grienke option is intriguing but how many years are left?
  15. howeda7
    Thank God he ignored that foolish advice to bunt.
  16. howeda7
    I'll gladly take 1 win in this series and a 2 game lead on Thursday morning.
  17. howeda7
    This is the crux of our disagreement. I'm not paying a player with 3 + years of service time assuming he will do something he's never done. He's also never sustained reasonable offensive production for more than 2-3 months at a time, and always takes awhile to get it going again when coming back from injuries.
  18. howeda7
    I would definitely do that deal. Do the Jays have a lefty reliever they can throw in too?
  19. howeda7
    That's like saying Sam Bradford is a $20 million quarterback when healthy. Maybe he is, but it's irrelevant. If he does that a couple times between now and FA, then you'll be right. But if he doesn't (which is more likely) then he'll be lucky to find one team willing to do so (who are the Arizona Cardinals of MLB)?

    On Joe Mauer day, 6/15, the Twins won to go 25 over .500 for the first time since 2010. Since then, they are 12-16.
  21. howeda7
    Let him earn it then. I don't see teams lining up to pay him $20 million year for multiple years.
  22. howeda7
    Brutal loss. I'll be shocked if we're still in 1st on 7/31. I'd take 1-3 over the next four at this point.
  23. howeda7
    Wow. Hard pass on that. I'm not paying $20 million per year for a guy who will likely never play more then 120 games. And his offense makes it unlikely he'll get $10 million/year in arbitration. I'd be willing to go something like 4/$44 starting at $8 million/year and escalating $2 million per year. Buying out two FA years for $26 million.
  24. howeda7
    "Must resist the urge to call Punto and talk him out of retirement."
  25. howeda7
    They're routinely using Rodgers for 2 inning saves. There's no way they can justify standing pat. And I know FO's don't listen to the fan base, but there will be a very high level of outage if they do nothing.
