    Can we make a decision on the fifth spot before we see them pitch? Are there any reports on how they've come into camp? I know that Maeda said he has no restrictions this camp and I haven't seen much on Ober. I would try to get Maeda as many innings this spring as he feels comfortable with. We'll see what the Twins plans are based on how much he pitches. If he pitches a ton I'd image he'd have the fifth spot, but if he throws some here and there then he'll start in the pen.

    I am very interested in how the battle for the 4th outfield spot is going to happen, and who wins it; we have four, almost five guys to fill that role. How much do Kiriloff, Larnach, Gordan, and Celestino play this spring training? Will Matt Wallner get a real shot at making the opening day roster?

    Anything more than 100 innings would be fantastic. I don't expect that to be the case. We'll get a better picture about his health and ability during Spring Training. As long as he shows that he is healthy and is consistent, this season will be a win for him and the Twins.

    I am all for trading Kep, but why don't we take a chance and see if the shift rules benifits Kepler. Heck if we keep Kepler in right and let him prove he can hit, wouldn't it make more sense to trade him then? By keeping him on opening day, Gallo would probably start in LF, with LArnach and Kiriloff fighting for the 4th Of spot which might help both of them.

    Would be all in on this guy. He might be expensive as he would automatically become the best pitcher on the market now that Eovoldi has signed. Fujinami is a career 3.17era/1.35whip/9.04SO9 guy in the NBP. He's also pitched for the Japanese national team, and made mlb players, like a young Jose Altuve, look silly in 2014. I feel like he would be perfect for Minnesota and would probably slide into a setup role. Low risk, high upside addition.

    Would Adames interest you?

    If you were to swap Arraez with Polanco, you'd be right there I believe.

    What about Polanco and a higher upside arm?

    If we tear it all down, there's no guarantee that we can build it back up again. Unless it's with a new front office, I'm not confident this FO could be able to find the pieces to rebuild.

    Does Kirilloff become a trade chip for the Twins?
  21. Richard
    Who do you think would bring him to Minnesota? A Kiriloff or Larnach? Polanco?
  22. Richard
    All we need from Buxton is 100+ games. We need Gray, Mahle, and Maeda to all preform like number 2-3 guys. We also need someone to step up at the corner outfield spots.
  23. Richard
    It's a year of a .300avg 30 hr guy who would be a great boost to the top of the lineup and has some defensive flexibility. Not to mention that he was a part of the 2018 Red Sox who went on to win the World Series. He has the post season experience and he knows how to get there. Even a year with Devers could be enough to at least get us to the post season.
  24. Richard
    You're right! Thank you for bringing up Polanco. That would work better for the Twins! An Arraez-Buxton-Devers lineup would be insane. I do fear that Polanco would call for a Balazovic type arm, which would be worth it for Devers.

    We do need to bring in a back end guy for the bullpen. What about the long relief role? We know the starters are probably only going to go 5 innings. Maybe a guy like Ronny Henriquez wins the role in Spring Training?
