Which Twins Regular is More Untouchable?

Not much faith in this FO to trade for pitching.  They cannot identify good pitchers in FA or in the draft.  (SJ has to go.)  Plus they gave a love affair with sliders at 89-90 that end up as bombs.  Need to get pitchers that throw 95+ first, then worry about offspeed.  Mayber with the little general. lover of sliders, gone. they will redefine their pitching to fast ball first pitchers.

Kepler is a safer option to trade in my opinion. He is under a team friendly contract, a better defender than Kiriloff, but I will take Kiriloff’s bat over Kepler any day and if we can net a starter with lesser prospects that can be a #1 or #2 guy like Montas or Syndigard I would do it in a heartbeat. 
 

i still would be all for us going in on an elite bat as well. We have such a streaky lineup and placing a Devers in the middle of it makes us a much stronger contender. If we could offload Urshela and get the Red Sox to take on some other prospects like a Spencer Steer, and even sadly an Austin Martin, SWR I think he would be a big piece of the equation for the stretch run.  Miranda or Arraez can slide over to 3rd and move Devers over to the 1st base side. The lineup would become very dangerous with a more consistent hitter in the middle of it.

And the defense would stink.
