July 28, 20215 yr It would be rather silly not to do this. That allows the team to punt on the next 16 months and then come back extremely strong afterward. It minimizes downtime and gives a strong several year upward trend in its wake. And the Twins still have Taylor Rogers and possibly Max Kepler to trade and add to the farm.

July 28, 20215 yr Author Yuuup it would be a pretty big collection of blue chip prospects making a move. But man, talk about a statement that you're not messing around when it comes to winning a championship ASAP. I would've included Rogers in place of Theilbar but obv he's off the shelf for the foreseeable future.
July 28, 20215 yr I voted no, but only because I think that's a pretty massive overpay from the Twins' side. As long as there are other serious bidders for Berrios (especially if those bidders include the Dodgers and/or Giants), I think he could probably get most if not all of that package by himself. And on top of that, I'm firmly in the "make the [redacted] incentives work and sign him already!" camp on Buxton.
