  1. Thanks for the updates. As a person who will probably never get to spring training, I appreciate the details and interviews.
  2. It's a holiday weekend and spring training is over a month away, so I'm guessing that you're just trolling us until there's a real signing or spring training games start.
  3. I don't agree with the plan currently being taken.
  4. "concerns it will reduce his lateral mobility as he ages. " Baseball Reference has Correa listed at 6'4, 220; he will likely lose lateral mobility even if he had not had the injury in 2014. Further, he likely will be moving to third in 5 years not matter what. There are not a ton of 33 year old major league shortstops. Also, I can't remember who reported it, but a few scouts believe he has a couple of 40 home run seasons in him. If that's the case, first base isn't a bad option. Finally, he played well in the games after the slide that shook him up a bit. It seems as if the original offer is still a risk worth taking.
  5. I hope Gallo reverts to the 3.5 WAR/year form that he had prior to New York/Los Angeles. I don't think it's prudent to bet $11 million on that happening. This organization doesn't seem to do great work on reclamation projects, Last year Sanchez was supposed to be a "he'll benefit from a change of scenery guy." He improved defensively, but his bat didn't.
  6. I hope that the Gallo era is as successful for the Twins and the Isiah Kiner-Falefa era was.
  7. I hope all recover quickly. Thank to Twins Daily for doing its best to keep site focused on baseball and as politics free as possible.
  8. This sums it up perfectly. The rotation can beginwth Gray, but when the next three are Bundy, Ober, and Ryan, there's not enough depth or experience to make the playoffs unless the front office expects to win win 50 or 60 games with scores of 9-7
  9. Let's not overlook this element from the article "The Twins could offer a clear everyday role at shortstop, but if Story is prioritizing a winning club, it’s a bit of a tougher sell for a 73-win Twins club — even if they’ve acquired Sonny Gray and made some other moves signaling a desire to contend in 2022." The best bet is Story going to the Giants or the Red Sox
  10. MLB Trade rumors is reporting that the Royals signed Greinke and that the Tigers are interested in Pineda. Any bets on who fills the Happ and Shoemaker roles this season?
  11. The Blue Jays have hired a female minor league hitting coach https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/mlb/report-blue-jays-hire-jaime-vieria-organization-s-first-female-coach/ar-AASDsXn
  12. This encapsulates the problem with trading Arraez.. Imagine Twins fans reaction to a hypothetical trade for someone like Berrios with the return being a singles hitter who may be a defensive liability and has bad knees.
  13. I hope they focus on starters, a shortstop, and relievers before even thinking about an outfielder. The Bundy signing is not focusing on starters.
  14. I have to agree. I understand the criteria you're using and I wouldn't have a problem with excluding Harmon if the title of the article were "Building the Best Budget WAR Twins Team" but any time the words "Twins All-Time Dream Team" are part of the title, Killebrew has to be on the team.
