    I think the price is not right for Betts and Price, way to steep for a one year rental..

    Eddie...Eddie...Eddie! I'm amazed by how many people think that the Minnesota Twins have another person in their organization ready to plug 109 RBI and 32 HRs into their line-up, and merely think someone else can step up even close to that level. They just aren't there...Wade? Cave? Rooker? Kirilloff? Larnach? None of them are the proven commodity that Rosario is offensively, or can even match him defensively for that matter, with the possible exception of Wade.

    For me, Gibson on a minor league deal only with invite to spring training and chance to make the MLB roster makes sense. Trading Sano and Rosario would upset the team chemistry too much, for too little return IMO. There's enough free agent starting pitching out there if the Twins are aggressive.

    Resign Cron, Minnesota has no established/proven 3B in their system. Sano is it.

    Priceless journalism...love love LOVE it.

    And I think with that comment, this discussion has just "jumped the shark." You don't just simply replace 32 HRs and 109 RBI with a rookie. How many of those 31 other leftfielders accumulated those stats?
  8. nclahammer
    About time for some Eddie...Eddie...Eddie Rosario love. I hope he can work on his defense a little more next year, and continue to make strides with his offense. Not hearing a lot of love out there recently, but he was on the field more than any other of the Nothin' but Raindrops crew this season, and had a higher batting average and more RBI than any of them. The Twins need to keep #20 in that line-up.

    You don't just simply replace 32 HRs and 109 RBI with any one of the current corner outfield prospects we have. And if all of the terrible stats mentioned about Eddie Rosario are true, what team in their right mind would give up good quality pitching for him?

    Game #3 I felt like I was at US Bank Stadium at a Viking game. The music was so loud (okay I'm 53), I wish I would have brought ear plugs (several of the concession people were wearing them) It was a great playoff atmosphere though and for special games like that, it's something I can deal with. If every Twins game had it, I would have a problem with it.

    I've said it before and I'll say it again, getting Dakota Chalmers in a trade deadline deal from Oakland for Fernando Rodney was an absolute steal for the Twins. The kid has a live arm and is finally healthy.

    In hindsight, I would have liked to see the approach to the bullpen use that was used in game #3, used in games #1 and #2. More of a sense of urgency, and not saving your studs for the later innings, which it turned out, the games were already out of reach by then.

    Thank you for another terrific recap of the Twins action from the week. Thanks for keeping fans up to date throughout the season, Twins Daily in always the first place I go to find news about our Minnesota Twins.

    What a super article about such an amazing human being. No one, and I mean no one, covers what's going on "down on the farm" for the Minnesota Twins like Twins Daily. It's my favorite read each morning, and that's saying a lot considering the high quality of Twins Daily content.

    Note to performers of God Bless America, caution: the end of the song is not the place to take the high road.

    I'm a big fan of Dakota Chalmers and I hope he can continue to stay healthy and make positive steps like this, he's got a live arm. He's the pitcher we acquired in the Fernando Rondey trade with the A's. Heard lots of good things when he was an Oakland prosepect, and he could quickly climb up the Twins prospect ladder.
  17. nclahammer
    Minnesota Twins fans, remember the name Dakota Chalmers. He was a 3rd round pick by the Oakland A's in 2015, has had some injuries in the minors, and the Twins aquired him in an under the radar move for Fernando Rodney. He's currently rehabbing and pitching in the GCL. Heard some buzz about him in the minors with Oakland, has a live arm.

    Great story about Shannon Stewart, I think Torii Hunter nicknamed that outfield with Stewart, Jones, and him, the Soul Patrol. In 1987, I remember really liking the pick-up of veteran Don Baylor. He was past his 79' AL MVP days, but I thought provided leadership and a veteran presence on that 87' WS Champs team.

    Congratulations Derek Molina, keep up the good work.
  21. nclahammer
    A refreshing dose of common sense. Gracias amigo!

    If I'm not mistaken, Schoop signed a one year deal. Arraez has raked the ball at every level, hope he's able to make the most of this opportunity and have the inside track for 2B in the Twins future.
