    Could the Twins have a new trade partner for Dozier? Any specific prospects from Arizona that people are excited about?
  4. SF Twins Fan
    Based on his numbers it looks like he's had three straight year of success. Consistently has a WHIP of 1.00 or below and striking out more than a batter per inning. And the fact he's already at AA is exciting. I'd assume he'd start next season at AAA and then could move up from there, so he should be able to help the Twins next season. Does anyone know if he has to be on the 40 man?
  5. SF Twins Fan
    On that note. Do you know why the MLB doesn't allow teams to trade their picks?

    Hopefully the player they're referring to is a relief pitcher and not Stewart or Thorpe.

    Congrats! On a side note I'm still completely confused on why Granite is batting anywhere near the top of the order... In no way shape or form should he be batting above 9th.

    I feel like the Twins would want to at least see Garver play a few games and to make sure he's not completely overwhelmed before they did something with Gimenez.

    I'd be fine with Wade. I think he's going to be a solid MLB player, but the Twins have most of the outfield locked up with Buxton and Kepler (I'm not convinced with Rosario). I also don't think the Twins can afford to trade any pitching prospect for a rental at this point.

    If this is a top 15 prospect I'll be pretty annoyed. A very average pitcher from the NL isn't something I give up any prospect that has a high ceiling.
  14. SF Twins Fan
    I wouldn't give up either of those players for the Shark. Having lived in SF for the past two years (Just moved to NY) the fans can't stand him. He's been a complete let down for what they thought they were getting and for what he's being paid. Based on how he's pitched the last couple of seasons and how much money he's owed still there is no way I'd give up a top 5 prospect for him. Throw in the fact he's pitching in the NL and it makes his stats look even worse.
  15. SF Twins Fan
    There is no way I include Gordon in any deal like that. Straily is a one hit wonder who has been bad before this season. I'd maybe include a top 10 prospect for him but even that might be high.

    First and foremost I'd like to see some promotions. Twins: I'd like to see Breslow and potentially Belisle be DFA'd or waived whichever it is. In their place I would promote one of Busenitz or Curtiss and then also bring up Garver, Park or Varges. Minors: I'd like to see Gonsalves and potentially Romero and Jorge moved up to AAA and I'd like to see Thorpe moved up to AA. As for trades I wouldn't blow the farm on a move unless it's for Archer, which I don't see happening. I would however like to see someone added to the bullpen and potentially a back end of the rotation starter. A rotation of Santana, Berrios, Mejia, Trade and Gibson is pretty solid overall. It's not going to compete against the top few teams but should be good enough to allow them to compete the rest of the season. I also would like to see a veteran RH bench bat added as well.

    I agree the Twins have to give up something good to get the type of pitcher they need at the top of the rotation, however I'd rather them spend money in the offseason on one of the top pitchers available. Go into next season with a starting rotation of Santana, Berrios, FA Acquisition, Mejia and 5th starter and then make a trade if they need more starting pitching at the trade deadline. This will allow the Twins time to evaluate Gonsalves and Romero at AAA the second half of this season and to see how close both of them are to having an impact in the MLB next season.
  18. SF Twins Fan
    I understand that, however none of the depth is anywhere close to playing in the MLB. Vielma is struggling so far at AAA and is mostly a defensive player anyways. Palacios is having a good season so far, however he has only played 15 games at High A, and will either start next season there or AA. The rest of the top SS prospects in the Twins system are at A or lower, so all of the "depth" they have isn't really all that close. Can Polanco and Escobar and Vielma hold down the position for 3 more seasons until these other players are available?
  19. SF Twins Fan
    Which one would you play at 3rd though? Dozier and Polanco don't have the arm to play there and Gordon isn't going to put up the numbers you would want from a 3rd baseman. Gordon is a line drive hitter that uses his speed to get doubles and triples. He'll be lucky to have 10 + homers a season in the MLB.
  20. SF Twins Fan
    You do realize that Lewis is like 5 years away from playing in the MLB, right? They're going to need someone in between now and 5 years to play SS.
  21. SF Twins Fan
    Why is he a future DH? Is he going all of a sudden be really bad at third? Do the Twins have another player in the minors who would push him off third?
  22. SF Twins Fan
    I definitely agree Gibson is bad, but I doubt they DFA him and would assume he'll be in play for the 5th rotation spot next season. I see Mejia as flashing #3 type stuff and would think #4 would be his floor. He's still relatively young (Just turned 24 in June) and seems to be improving. I also wouldn't count on May adding much value until the mid point next season and even then they might stick him in the bullpen.
  23. SF Twins Fan
    Do they need to add two SP this offseason? The Twins could easily go into next season with Santana, Berrios, FA acquisition - maybe Pineda, Mejia and Gibson. Starting the season next year the AAA starting rotation should be Gonsalves, Romero, Jorge and Slegers. You'd have to think Thorpe will move up to AA at some point this season or the beginning of next season. To me there is plenty of depth that would allow the Twins to only go after one offseason FA SP and then if s*** hits the fan next season with a few of the starting pitchers they could try and trade for another SP.
