    If your baseline is that a top prospect should equal HOF then you have a long life of disappointment ahead of you. I’ve watched the kid in the minors and he’s not too far off from what I thought. Granted I thought he’d be a .240-.250 hitter so that’s disappointing but 30-40 homers is about right.

    Exactly. Polanco is not the type of player you trade. He is on a team friendly deal and a good 2B. He also offers positional flexibility at SS and bottom line is a good player. There's not a player in the Twins org that could replace him. If you attempted to do so, we would have more stop gap career minor leaguers attempting to do so. Makes no sense when we have a solid core.

    Can we appreciate Sano for what he is? A guy that will have a lot of strikeouts, low average, but a lot of home runs and good OPS. That’s still a solid player. It’s almost like you guys expect him to be a hall of Famer which is unfair expectations. I remember riding back from Beloit when he was down there. I told my buddy that Rosario would be more valuable player if he stuck at 2B. Well he didn’t stick but my initial valuation was a lot closer than anyone expected. He is still a fine player but he is what he is. He will have some hot streaks and we will be glad to have him. If you are expecting Barry Bonds out there, then sorry.

    Pretty bad joke. Only disrupts the discussion.

    Accidentally deleted this when I meant to click “edit”. Looks like edit button disappeared It was a series of bizarre decision making. You let Rosario go because you don’t want him blocking the young guys. Instead of adding all the young guys to the 40 man roster and let the cream rise to the top, you expose Baddoo only to sign a retread outfielder who’s failed at other organizations to block the kids. In the process you lose a guy with real potential. If you are making the decision between Rosario and Young guys... okay I get that. But management chose the worst of both worlds and now LF is a disaster. Hopefully they learn quick from their mistakes and let the young guys learn

    This has nothing to do with the thread

    I am a big fan of Celestino but thank you for the sensible take
  8. AZTwin
    He is what he is. Not sure how the start of this season changed your view of him at all
  9. AZTwin
    Can we wait at least a month before these extreme takes?
  10. AZTwin
    No need for the false choice. People saying both are answering correctly

    I’m not allowed to go into specifics here but gladly will in DM if you’d like

    Watch the game. I agree by and large it’s been good but there’s been some blunders and today was a result of that
  13. AZTwin
    Roster mismanagement has now directly impacted the result of 1 game.
  14. AZTwin
    Look at what happened with Snell and the Rays last year. Some of the analytics is a travesty to sports
  15. AZTwin
    Saying Rosario is not worth $10m is a fine argument to make. The past 3 years of wanting to trade him for a bucket of balls was not ever a reasonable argument. The disaster we are seeing in our OF now is living proof of it. Nothing about Garlick is intriguing. There was no reason to add him to the 40 man roster when there were others more deserving. And now he is blocking some players from learning through fire. At some point you need to give your prospects a shot.

    The FO is just trying to save face after a string of 3 bad decisions leaving the outfield in shambles. They cant let go of the sunk cost of those decisions and just go with whats best for the future of the franchise.
  17. AZTwin
    After this disaster in LF to open the year, I would like to see a public apology from all the writers hating on Rosario the last 3 years to finally admit that they were wrong.
  18. AZTwin
    Agreed. The argument against Rosario was always that he was blocking the young players. Now you clear the spot, only to block it with Garlick? Com'n.... If you are going to make that move, you got to give the prospects a chance.
  19. AZTwin
    You put a lot of stock in spring training. At no point has Garlick ever looked like a major league player. If we really had a need for Garlick then we should have just rolled the dice with Baddoo. Tigers would laugh at you if you offered Garlick for Baddoo straight up
  20. AZTwin
    Well he’s better than Garlick lmao
  21. AZTwin
    Twins don’t need to keep Baddoo in the majors. He would have options. I would have preferred starting Baddoo until Rooker is ready than to have Garlick take space on the 40 man roster
  22. AZTwin
    Better spring than Garlick. Honestly do you think the Tigers would trade Baddoo for Garlick straight up?
  23. AZTwin
    This actually gave me a nightmare last night. We were playing the Yankees and these two scrubs were in the lineup and rally killer at every turn. We hit a homerun in the 9th to get within 1 and had opportunity to tie but Garlick had a weak at bat and we lost. Then I went home and got beat up by my pet monkey that I had in the dream which closely resembles the Angels Rally Monkey.
  24. AZTwin
    Honestly though, if the Twins offered the Tigers Garlick and $50k for Baddoo do they accept?
  25. AZTwin
    If we are going to put Garlick on the roster we might as well kept and started Baddoo out there to begin the year. Management shows that they were clueless in this move
