    If Maeda hits 150-175 innings with his escalators I wonder what the Twins payroll would be? I guess it's ok to read those TD Maeda articles now!

    Wishing Brusdar luck I would've enjoyed watching him. I am reluctantly in on the deal and our rotation depth and flexibility. If Maeda is a bullpen weapon in the playoffs for us that means Hill and the rotation are dealing. Could be fun.

    Looks like it's a done deal. Wishing Brusdar luck I would've enjoyed watching him. I am reluctantly in on the deal and our rotation depth and flexibility. If Maeda is a bullpen weapon in the playoffs for us that means Hill and the rotation are dealing. Could be fun.

    LEN3 has got his finger on the pulse baby! We're in good hands!

    With this latest twist there is a chance we get Maeda for a bat instead of Brusdar and to me that would be the best possible outcome. I would be more than happy to watch our flamethrower's career unfold.

    Glad to have Brusdar back. I have become spoiled the last few days with a bolstered rotation so I look forward to the next move! Kenta Maeda I hardly knew ya

    Everybody has him listed at 6'3" 170. Might have nice frame but needs to bulk up a bit.

    This off-season is a freaking thrill ride! TR's head must be spinning.

    With a contact like his the man definitely needs a part-time job.

    This is like being labeled a failure while still in diapers, tough crowd.

    Hate to lose the Buffalo but this address a need and Maeda has flexibility as well. A more complete team for sure. For about 10m a year the Twins get an established starter. Not bad. I've heard it mentioned that he has a lot of miles on his arm but the Dodgers used him uniquely and he averaged about 140 innings a year the last four years. With the depth the Twins now have in the rotation our arms can now be coddled a bit saving bullets for the fall. This is an unforeseen opportunity for Romero let's hope he can hit his spots. Might go a ways in easing the pain of losing the Buffalo.

    One thing not mentioned is Target Field plays well to right handed power and the Twins are appropriately constructed.

    Nothing to add here.

    I just think back to Pierzinski and how it was said you only liked him if he was on your team. Personally I liked him very much and he was a hilarious contrast to the guy who replaced him. Sad to see him go.

    I think Duran and Balazovic project as starters more favorably than Graterol. Graterol needs to show he can hold up to a starters work load, it's not necessarily the pitches for him. If he ends up as a fireman with the other 2 as starters that wouldn't be bad. Of course a rotation with all three could be fun!

    The part where he said they should trade him for some chips and a sausage pizza?
  18. wabene
    Sausage pizza? That's about enough of the Eddie bashing thank you!

    I was advocating for him as an early season starter transitioning to the pen when the rotation fills up. Which would limit his innings. They must think either he doesn't have the pitches for that yet or can't handle the load yet or some combination of both. I'm on board with this move for 2 reasons. I love the new FO not wasting his bullets in the minors and this move can be temporary i.e. Santana. This is aggressive and decisive management! Edit: Make that 3 reasons, I like him up with the major league staff and players.

    I read he was going to skip surgery and just play with it. Post surgery rehab would take too long. Your right though there is nothing in the news since then.

    Looking at those payroll lite years it's time for some payback. $165m? That might change some fan narratives. Go get another pitcher!

    "ladies and gentlemen, yes the Twins off-season keeps going on and on and on!"
  23. wabene
    Twins off-season: "I laughed, I cried" (not necessarily in that order), said TD.
  24. wabene
    They may just do that. It could be they are trying for a long term deal and if that falls apart then just give him his number. We just don't know.
  25. wabene
    Yes, this is a good point. Previously there was an assumption that Sano wanted a big payday on the east coast. That he would jump ship at the first opportunity. Maybe the good will engendered this past year with his success, the team's success and possibly the clubhouse/Cruz factor has sweetened him on Minnie. With Berrios not inked yet hopefully the same is weighing on him.
