I think the Padres are about to get desperate. They lost Scherzer, lost Berrios, and are going to scramble. Preller won't stand put and knows he went all in before the season.

Maeda, Rogers, Buxton all could be a fit.

Twins could take on Meyers or Hosmer to really maximize the return.

I hope they don't deal Maeda or Buxton....but Pineda is a fit there.......

Just wild guesses but I think Pineda goes to the Mets or Phillies for a solid prospect (top 6-10 on the receiving teams list).

Simmons gets moved for not much.

 

I'm betting Mets or Padres .....and about that spot....a guy rated 120-200 or so. 45 FV on the scout scale. 

Moving Simmons creates lots of questions of who plays SS this year.

Well why stop being bold now, just plug Austin Martin in there. 

Joking. Mostly.

The thought crossed my mind, but we are talking the Twins here.....

I'm guessing a combo of Gordon and Polanco. Why not play Gordon there and see what happens. We already know what Polanco can do. Now, I don't think Gordon is an every day MLB SS.....imagine if they had taken Turner there. Sigh.

Iv switched over to Football mode. Watching training camp highlights. Thats more entertaining than watching the Twins at this point. 

Heretic. ?

I loved the Berrios trade, great return, understood why we had to do it. But do not trade Buxton.

That would kill the 'mostly happy buzz' I have going right now ... not just kill it, but pulverize it. that would be a huge mistake, imo

Interest in Byron Buxton Picking Up

The Twins have already traded Nelson Cruz and Jose Berrios, and they’re surely not done for the day, with several other players to shop to contending clubs. Center fielder Byron Buxton’s market has picked up steam since last night, tweets Dan Hayes of The Athletic, although it’s no sure thing he’ll be moved just yet. MLB Network’s Jon Heyman tweets that the Phillies “love” Buxton and are one six or seven teams inquiring with the Twins.

Craig Kimbrel to White Sox for Nick Madrigal and Codi Heuer

I'd bet money the White Sox are in like Flynn on Story now that the Rockies have dropped their ask.

 

Where would Story play for the White Sox? They are set at SS and 3B, and just acquired Cesar Hernandez for 2B yesterday.

I don't care what Gant and the other guy do, that is impressive. Truly. 

They could have zero veteran pitchers on the roster soon......which is NOT GOOD.

They still have Pineda ... 40 minutes to go
