The Rest of 2014

In the remainder of the season, I would like to see the following:

1. The Twins trade Kurt Suzuki for a top 150 prospect, Josh Willingham for a top 300 prospect, Casey Fien for a top 500 prospect, Eduardo Escobar for a top 700 prospect, Kevin Correia for a top 1000 prospect, and Brian Duensing for a top 1000 prospect.

2. I would *really* like for the first three of those to happen.

3. Jared Burton gone and Alex Meyer called up to the bullpen.

4. Trevor May called up to start.

5. Josmil Pinto and Chris Herrmann to be the sole catchers post Suzuki.

6. Kennys Vargas, Danny Ortiz, and James Beresford to be called up in September for position player additions, and the subsequent and easy 40-man decisions to be made for the latter two.

7. Michael Tonkin, AJ Achter, and Lester Oliveros to be called up for pitching additions, with the easy 40-man moves to be made for the latter two here as well.

8. Some of those 40-man moves can be made through trading the above no-future as Twins players, at least not for guys who have to be added to the 40-man right away.

9. All trades must be for A or maybe AA players and pitchers.

10. Aaron Hicks gets promoted to AAA, as does Eddie Rosario.

11. Byron Buxton and Nate Roberts get promoted to AA.

12. All other proper promotions occur, giving prospects some time at a higher level before next season begins.
