Article: On Unsustainable Success And Traps
Kleppy12 replied to Nick Nelson's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
If the Twins make a big move around the deadline the only major piece they should consider moving in Mauer. I do not say this as a Mauer hater but over the last two years he's batting around .280 which is decent but not worth the money we have invested in him and is in a position where if you bat in the 200's you better hit 30-40 HR's a year. If the Terry Ryan could manage to trade Mauer with some team eating half his contract this would free a place for Vargas/Sano/Walker to come up and play DH/1B because at this point I don't feel like you would be losing much and would free up money for other players who will need the money sooner rather than later. Just my two cents I know it won't happen but emotions aside if they can't get a good return on Mauer(player or money -wise) then keep him but if you can dump some of the contract or get a good player back I think that's where you make a move.
