The Minnesota Twins are in need of starting pitching but the free agent market was thinned out before the lockout. Let's talk about some trade ideas that were tossed out within the last week. What do you think about these ideas for the rotation? Links to the pieces I'm reacting to are below.

I have the exact same Mauer jersey hanging in my basement with all my other Twins, Vikings, and Husker memorabilia.  I've only worn the jersey a couple of times as it's expensive and I have a bad habit of spilling stuff when I wear white. It's like a curse! LOL. My X bought it for me and reminded me of my weird habit of wearing white, so it's been hanging since I wore it at KC a few years ago. And man do I miss the pinstripes!

We could regret it, but I think any trade of Cantarino could end up as a mistake. 

Duran is slightly behind my belief in Canterino.

I'd really like to see the Twins "baby" those 2 arms for 2022 rather than give them up too early.

You have to give something up to get something. And I don't know exactly what that is right now. I think the Brewer's trade is nuts for a 5th SP.

And I'm not crazy about trading for anyone who is under control for only 1 or 2yrs, unless the FO realistically thinks they will do a re- sign.

I am SO HOPING for another Oddo or Maeda out of the hat trade!
