Kiriloff to IL? Kepler traded? Only person you can move to AAA is Larnach, not sure you'd want to do that.

He was actually in New Zealand (have a team in the ABL now) where there are no lethal spiders or snakes (or lethal wildlife of any kind actually). And i know everyones first thought is opiods but they are very difficult to get here. New Zealand is a very remote island its pretty hard of to get Cocaine and Opiods through customs. Unfortunately things as small as Fentanyl have made this harder to stop though

I think we should turn our attention to Greinke. We have a lot of salary coming off our already lower-than-last-year payroll. We should be looking to spend lots next season. Attendance and ratings are up, time to reward the fans. Minimal/no prospect loss. Moves the needle. No-trade clauses can typically be negotiated away. Improves bullpen by adding Perez/whichever starter. If the market really is as constipated as it seems then I could be swayed on Givens-types if only because they ultimately likely represent an upgrade, however small.

They figure to add someone at the deadline probably, so maybe there is some advanced rosterlitics that say your guys stand a better chance not being claimed now than at the deadline.

Remember him? Slip him through waivers? Jeez you guys are merciless. He had a good rookie season as a starter and then started last year great as well before getting injured. He had one bad month, his first as a reliever, and you guys are ready to cut him. He will be back in the pen, if not in Thorpe's place then sometime.

Littel would also be ineligible. Optioned 6 days ago.

College Juniors market inefficiency? Maybe the seniors are overvalued because of their sign-ability.

Adrianza since April 21: .265/.383/.469 (.853 OPS).

Wasn't Duffey technically the 26th man for the doubleheader? So it can't be Kohl Stewart.

Smeltzer wasn't even the headliner in that trade, I believe Raley was, and both for Dozier who was in very poor form at the time. What a trade.

All of the top prospects at this level are trending down, and 2018 was already a bad year for Rochester, so I do worry a bit about the atmosphere of having so many top guys under a lot of pressure. I guess in a years time all the talent at A+ and AA will move up a level and solve that issue.

Ernie De La Trinidad seems like a guy who could be useful at some point

The 'Twins aren't interested' comments from beat writers are usually qualified with something like 'unless the price comes down' which has always struck me as odd because of course the price will come down, no one is signing them.

Wow what if Wes Johnsons true skill was tampering with radar guns. Like that guy from Harry Potter that used memory charms to make people think he was dope.
