Not a bad analysis, except it’s not clear where Miranda goes when Lee is ready to take third, and I don’t see how you trade Maeda before Opening Day when he hasn’t pitched in a real game in almost 2 years.

I’m just tired of them signing guys hoping to have a bounceback year. Bargain basement shopping is not a viable strategy. Every year we sign guys whose best years are way in the rear view mirror, hoping to squeeze that last piece off lightning out of the bottle. And almost always fail.

Another “catch lightning in a bottle by getting a washed up veteran” move by the Twins. Absolutely makes no sense. That money could have been spent on our other glaring needs, like a legit SP, relief pitcher or SS. Reminds me of the old saying “Don’t confuse movement with progress”.
