  1. Announced an hour ago per mlb trade rumors
  2. With all the talk about openers and stacking pitchers, and the Twins having several starting pitchers close to the bigs and on the 40 man roster, I was wondering if they would consider a rotating set of stackers for the fifth spot. Maybe Romero/Thorpe, Stewart/ Gonsalves, and Littell/deJonge. You could send them down after they pitch, call up two bats until the fifth spot is up again, and then recall the next pair. After ten days, I believe, they could be recalled. This would lengthen the bench for the first four starters. It would also give all the young pitchers exposure and better prepare them for 2020, when we lose three starters. What do you think?
  3. I would like to see Lynn offered a three year deal, $15 mil per, give him an opt out after 1year, the third year a vesting option with 2 mil buyout. Third year vests if he throws 400 innings in the first two years. My guess is he would opt out after one year if he had a typical Lance Lynn type of season.
  4. I prefer Lynn over Cobb, as Cobb has had both the TOS and TJ surgeries and had a season high of 179 IP. Granted, Cobb has probably had the best post-TOS career of anybody in MLB, but the shelf-life of TOS recipients is generally short. As in I can’t think of anyone who had the surgery before Cobb that is still active. Lynn is now Two years removed from TJ and has been a reliable source of innings throughout his career.
  5. What makes me happiest? Royce Lewis, and the fact he played at Cedar Rapids in his first half-season.
  6. Was Granite already on the 40 man roster, or was there a corresponding move?
  7. I disagree. It very well may have been a reward for those years of service. He was a borderline prospect/suspect who worked his tail off. Those two games may very well be his only two MLB games. (Although I hope not).
  8. Perhaps the Twins could pre-arraign a trade with the Padres, Greene for Espinoza or Quantrill and the third pick. I'm not sure whether the Twins would need to sign Greene first, or if they can trade his rights once drafted.
  9. I would keep Thorpe. The last time he and Romero were both healthy at the same time, Thorpe was rated higher. And he is a year younger than Romero. I think Thorpe would definitely be taken in the rule V draft.
