    Our history with Korean players is not so good... pass unless cheap.... as in some lottery ticket guys...

    I think Fangraphs is dead on.. we are a .500 team as currently constructed. Would need some quality trades to upgrade the pitching staff that would improve the team as well as figuring out the outfield situation. We do have a decent pitching rotation but NEED a quality pitching coach ... last year between our fill in and Baldelli it was the worst Coached pitching staff in the league...

    Saw the same thing... know the Twins would take some heat but for a one year deal and likely having LAD pay a good chunk.. I'm in. He would first have to show some accountability but ... worth a shot.

    Pass...

    Correct but Miranda was playing out of position... and allows Kiriloff to move to his best position. A connect the dots thing...

    Skimping! As a fan base we should be thankful that we didn't get "scammed" by Boras. I am not happy that we didn't get a quality SS for the team but that contract is stupid... Not getting him was the right move ...

    Most important aquisition this offseason may well be a qualified and competant pitching coach... The coaching last year was a complete disaster. Twins used to pride themselves on thier quality of fundamentals .. including defense, baserunning and pitching..... they are not good in any of these areas at this time..

    Alright... that reply get you your cred back!!

    Lost some credibility on this one Greggory... Signing was fine... if was for a minor league deal with 11 mil in incentives... As is was a Terrible signing and as I have said.. this one should cost someone their job... incompetent move.

    Am guessing you "purposely" spelled Dansby's name wrong.. LOL
  11. specialiststeve
    Need to "read" the numbers! The offer was for more annually than SF .. Their offer was fantastic. That he took the SF offer was disappointing but understandable. Those 10-13 year contracts NEVER pan out... I would be pissed if we DID sign him for that .. Stupid and irresponsible use of resources.

    Actually, they did replace him already. Inhouse with Miranda... who clearly has a higher ceiling and needed to open the spot. I like Urshela a lot but that needed to happen.
  13. specialiststeve
    A minor league deal with incentives up to 11 million dollars ... I would be okay with. But a straight 11 mil guaranteed ... if that is the case someone needs to be fired. That is the definition of incompetence.
  14. specialiststeve
    You may actually want to look up his performance numbers... they are TERRIBLE. If we are looking to be terrible... this is the right move. Yikes.
  15. specialiststeve
    They better have not spent 11 million on him!! If so ... someone needs to get fired!!
  16. specialiststeve
    I have been trying to stay positive in this offseason but I am totally without words for this move. We have a Glut of left handed outfielders so we go out and spend on a washed up low average guy ... blocking guys from our system that should be given the opportunity ... Argh. Somewhere in their delusuional mind the metric morons will justify this.

    The Twins and free agent Joey Gallo have agreed to a one-year deal, according to ESPN's Jeff Passan. The New York Post's Jon Heyman adds that it's worth $11 million.

    Winning baseball. Period.

    GLEYBER TORRES has been on the block ... that would work.. not likely, but is arbitration eligible for the next 2 years and have some star power coming up... Peraza would be awesome as a great glove and cost effective... not sure Correa is going to happen.. hope but...
  20. specialiststeve
    Yep! That would have been better!!
  21. specialiststeve
    Okay ... who do you take off the 40 to put Cruz on?
  22. specialiststeve
    Would really depend on what they got back for them. Kepler has yearly underperformed... Polanco has some good trade value with his manageable contract ... Moving both would open up spots for Gordon to play second as he has proved he can play.. Kepler very good on defense but... They CLEARLY will add a catcher so that is a mute point.
  23. specialiststeve
    NO WAY they ask for that. Larnach or Walner, with Gilberto and one of Winder, Sands or Varland. I would think that would get it done. All very controllable with some quality upside.
  24. specialiststeve
    Gloom, despair, agony on me!! Wow... may want to get some help!! Twins pitching is fine... Love to find an Ace but we are good. https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=555815954561026

    No "fixing" need to hire a TOP NOTCH pitching coach and coach these guys up. Also need to stop relying on the analytics so much ... these guys are athletes and competators... LET THEM PITCH.
