I wonder if someone can post a picture of Pohlad, Falvey and Molitor in a bunker holding up a white flag??

 

I'm bad, I know.

Hey now, we still have Dozier!

I'm not sure they are there yet, actually.....

 

Mejia for Lynn

Someone for Pressley

Sano for Escobar (likely a step down, but I HOPE not, or next year will be tough too)

Someone for Duke (who Molitor didn't seem to use as a LOOGY)

 

So, yes, guys are gone, but only Escobar is a big loss for this year, IMO.

 

edit:

But, they kind of are and I would not be surprised by more moves. (this edit was added after the first two "likes".....

 

second edit:

I'd have liked to see international budget coming back in some of these deals!

Pressly was a loss too, but not huge for this team, and I have contended relievers are fungible and do believe they’ll back fill him somehow pretty well.

 

Overall agreed, Mejia is equal or step up over Lynn, and Austin could be a step up over LoMo

Cleaning house to get some younger players involved, hopefully.

He won’t have a choice if it’s all he has.

Pohlad's white boxer shorts have been officially run up the flag pole at Target Field. Now it is about getting rid of as many expiring contracts as possible and Dave St Peter pleading with Jim to keep Paul Molitor as manager. It will be interesting to see who get's there way, St Peter as Molitors long time friend, or if Falvey get's to have ownership let him have his own "new shiny toy" guy get to hire the manager spot.

I’m not really sure I get this post, but it’s Pohlad who is friends with Molitor.

No one can accuse the front office of sitting on their hands, that’s for sure. They’ve been far more active than Ryan ever was at a deadline.

 

At least that part is interesting to see unfold. The return isn’t great because the Twins’ players aren’t great but at least it’s interesting.
