  1. Could you imagine the infield hitting! 3rd Donaldson SS Story 2nd Palonco 1st Sano The outfield should hit like studs too. Kepler, Kirilloff and Larnach Then Rooker could be next guy up if someone doesn’t perform.
  2. I say bring them both up. Do a sign and trade with Colorado.(Buxton for Story) They would both have to sign a long term deal. Move Kepler to centerfield for a year or two, start getting Lewis ready to play center..
  3. C - Garver/Jeffers timeshare - play whoever has the hot hand 1B - Rooker/Garver 2B - Arraez 3B - Donaldson SS -Lindor/ Polanco (SU) LF - Kirilloff CF - Buxton RF - Kepler DH -Garver/Rooker/Polanco
  4. This would leave one of the young guys to start at first. Kepler, Garver, or Kirilloff? Keep Cruz or sign Ozuna for the DH? (Can Polanco DH or Garver?) save some money on the DH?
  5. I would love it if the Twins made a three team trade, trade Sano to Colorado, Lindor to the Twins. A couple of young players from Colorado to Cleveland and a prospect from the Twins to Cleveland. Someone in 7 to 12 range on the prospect list?
  6. 1. Trade for Archer-Gordon,Kohl or others. 2. Trade for Machado/ Baltimore is 4.5 games out, in forth place and has lost 7 out of the last 10. Plus plays in a tough AL East. Rental player so don't give away the farm. Pitching Archer Santana Berrios ? ? Infield Vargas/Mauer Dozier Machado Sano Unrealistic but could make a run in the playoffs. Giving up defense for offense. Would be fun to watch.
  7. I'm a huge Twin's fan but the two National League teams would be Colorado and Pittsburgh. As a kid I loved Dave Parker and having them win the WS in 79 just topped it off. I was 9 years old. Since moving to Wyoming in 92 to go to college and when the Rockies started playing I started routing for them. I go to a couple of games every year. About 7 hours to Denver from my house. The team that reminds me of the Twins of yesteryear is KC. I know they are in the American League but they are small market and play good D and runout every play.
  8. nater79a Yesterday, 11:03 PM If anybody is needing something from "Big Game" James, it's the Twins right now! Searching for a win...any win. I totally agree! The Twins could use a spark. If Nolasco gets Cy Young votes for SD good for him. I never want to wish someone ill will.
  9. WyoTwin Today, 06:37 PM Just a few points. Is Gibson a number one pitcher? I don't think so. I think he is a low two or a high three. Seems during the off season people post that we have a rotation full of 3 and 4. Here we have maybe a top three ss in the league. When healthy possibly a MVP candidate. I know he has not been healthy, but would you want a healthy Tulowitzki for around 140 games and someone else filling the other days? I would! About the splits, according to baseball-fever.com Batting avg splits Ted Williams-Home .361 away 328 Jimmie Fox- H .345 A .307 Honus Wagner-H .335 A .320 Carl Yastrzemski -H .306 A .264 Slugging % Roger Hornsby's in 1925 H-.902 A-.618 Who on this page wouldn't trade Kyle Gibson for any one of these players? I've been thinking about a few players that have traded later in there career. Mark Maguire Frank Robinson (same age as Tulowitzki now) David Cone Nolan Ryan Mike Lowell Mike Piazza Tom Seaver Dennis Eckersley Gaylord Perry Bert Blyleven Who wouldn't of wanted any of them? I would trade Colorado ABll, Gibson, Stewart, and Reed For Tulowitzki and Hundley I believe Colorado is going to go into a rebuild mode. They may end up trading Tulowitzki, Cargo, and Blackman.

  11. Living in Wyoming I get to watch a lot of Rockies games. Tulo is a great ss. I think it would take a lot more than the three players listed. First off Colorado is always looking for pitching. I think it would look like ABW II, Thorpe, Myers, (or Steward or May) and a fourth player. He would instantly improve the offense. He would probably hit third or fifth with Sano hitting fourth. When was the last time we saw the middle of the lineup with this much power? The eighties? I don't ever remember having a ss with this much power? (Give him some time to heal from his surgeries. Just two years ago people were predicting him to be the MVP in NL and the best ss in baseball.)
  12. I would think it would cross there minds sometimes. Like Adam Brett Walker III seeing all the outfielders in the organization. He might think Colorado with the thin air and less movement on a pitch would be a perfect spot for him. He might hit 45 bombs a year.
  13. If the Twins are going to trade for someone they should trade for Troy Tulowitzki. He's the best ss in the game when healthy. Trade one of the young ss, pitcher, and of. Meyer Adam Brett Walker Santana Take the balls out of the humidor at Coors Field where you can bring back home field advantage. When you think Rockies now or from the early years it's all about the hitters. Walker could hit 45 hr, Meyer could be the third starter behind Gray and Butler. Santana could fill in at short. The Rockies would have to eat some payroll but the Twins have been stating the Polads are willing to spend money. Or include a third team with Plouffe for more young pitching.
