Chris Sale was was better than Berrios and Boston got 3 full years of control over him. I think Berrios is a very good pitcher, but that expectation seems out of reach. I think a Berrios package might bring back 3 top 10 prospects in an organization which would include a top 50 MLB, another top 100 and a 6-10 ranked organizational prospect.

The Twins should not trade Berrios for less than a haul - that is my point. Whether it is out of reach, which it should be, is another teams decision.

And have got to love Baldelli putting in Colome' with the game only 2-1? What kind of bone head managing is that? How about Sano? 2 costly errors and a base running blunder they don't make in Legion baseball. Bottom line is Twins lose again in all too familiar fashion. I agree, try hard to resign Berrios. Please get rid of Rocco. This maybe a unpopular opinion. But Jose is necessary...wish we had at least 2 more just like him. But I just don't see Rocco as a manager for this team...and not just because this year. He is who who is, and that is a manager that seams to have lost the balance between analytics and baseball.

I agree the Twins should be making it a huge priority to extend Berrios up to about the 5 years $125MM or so price point. If the Twins are unable to sign Berrios and they're unwilling to accept a good trade for him is a Twins decision. Watching Berrios walk for literally nothing would be a disaster. I say literally nothing because I don't know if the compensatory pick will even be a thing in the next CBA.
