    Prediction: TC fades from the race by end of June

    Sliver Lining.... our position will be clear and accurate by the trade deadline. Ryan, Larnach, Jeffers, and Buck (if he wants) need to be traded to complete rebuild started last year. Ryan and Jefferes are not signing extensions at this point and we will not win a free agency bidding war. We have plenty of young outfielders that will need ABs making Larnach superfluous Happy to keep him but FREE BUCK if he wants to compete for a championship! I don't think any other players older than 25 on this roster are worth anything in a trade... but would be happy to be proven wrong!

    I actually like how Keaschall is battling through at the plate this year. Everyone has to go through this phase when the MLB pitchers have a more accurate scouting report. I think his batting will recover to be a plus in the long run.... his defense... well, I don't have the same optimism there....
  4. D.C Twins
    you had me until Lee at 1B... If he is the best bat to plug in at 1B in the future, that future team is likely not a true contender...
  5. D.C Twins
    Seth.... any update on Jenkins and Rodriguez timetable for return?
  6. D.C Twins
    More than just ego.... HUBRIS is what comes to mind when I think of Lewis
  7. D.C Twins
    This bears repeating...
  8. D.C Twins
    I've lost interest a bit in what they do with him.... which, of course, is a very bad sign

    The trade output from last year's deadline has been impressive. I know this is unpopular with at least 50% of TD, but we need to finish the job at this year's deadline to finish the youth movement. Ryan and Jeffers are not going to sign an extension, nor will the Twins outbid others during free agency. We need to get as much for them as possible. Also sell high on Larnach. I'm excited to see how the new wave performs for better or worse. Let's get to it.

    Addition by subtraction. Removing Wallner and Lewis poor defense and prolific strikeouts makes a big difference!
  11. D.C Twins
    Apologies for using this 3 times in one day... but there has been a rash of hyperbolic articles on TD today and as the old saying goes... a GIF is worth a million words.

    'They left him exposed to the Rule 5 Draft, though he wasn't selected.' This would seem to suggest that other teams don't think he is MLB quality either. But, if this season goes South, he is exactly the type that should get a look in the 2nd half

    Lewis should already be in AAA.... he is absolutely a detriment to the team right now. Maybe he has a lingering injury and maybe not... but that is irrelevant... Either way he needs to be off this team
  16. D.C Twins
    I totally get this sediment, but this is his first season learning to come out of the bullpen and his stuff is legit.... There is definitely a chance things still work out for him in the bullpen.
  17. D.C Twins
    I'll give them a little more grace on Carantini.... they do need two passable catches after Jeffers gets traded at the deadline (Jacksson being the other)
  18. D.C Twins
    ... and Pablo..... they half arsed the rebuild so we could end up having the worst of both worlds.... The Twins ownership and front office simply do not have the foggiest idea of how to run a professional baseball franchise.... It's sad with a sprinkle of embarrassment.... and if you have a refined pallet.... just a hint of apathy...
  19. D.C Twins
    I understand your point but IMO we need to look at this without knowledge of performance this season. We traded Duran, Jax, Varland, and Correa. All of these guys were controllable. We did so to bring in younger talent to prepare for the next window. We need to finish the job with Jeffers, Ryan, and Buck. Ryan and Jeffers are easy decisions because we will never pay them in free agency and make no mistake... they are going to free agency Buck depends on Buck... but if he wants to leave, we should oblige for the right price
  20. D.C Twins
    Putting all of the histrionics and hyperbole aside, the situation is pretty straight forward. 1. We all love Buck and wish that his peak aligned with a Twins competitive window, but alas, it did not. 2. Buck has peak trade value right now which will erode soon (probably starting next year) 3. Getting additional talent that aligns with the next core via a Buck trade makes sense Good roster construction happens by using intellect and not emotion. If I make you feel any better, the Twins don't have the foggiest idea about good roster construction. This will come down to Buck's desires. If he wants out at the trade deadline, the Twins will probably oblige. If he want to stay, obviously he will with his no-trade clause.
  21. D.C Twins
    . Real fans of this team should not wish for half arsed planning. Ownership has already committed to a rebuild through last years actions.... but they have not had the intestinal fortitude to see it through. Some 'fans' such as yourself perhaps do not have the intestinal fortitude either. That is fine, as long as you like protracted bad-mediocre baseball lasting upwards of a decade....
  22. D.C Twins
    I promise you that Joe Ryan has a calendar somewhere in his house where is counting down to the trading deadline day by day.....
  23. D.C Twins
    This bullpen needs more than a Banda-id......
  24. D.C Twins
    Dove headfirst into first base?! Oh for F-s sake!
  25. D.C Twins
    Quite honestly, I hope to see him win a WS with Atlanta this year and enjoy watching the young talent he brings in return during the second half of the season. Time to free up the outfield for prospects and Free Buck
