Starting Rotation should be: 1.Gray 2.Lopez 3.Ryan 4.Mahle 5.Maeda

Why did we Release Pinto from AAA???

The equivalent of the A's - Padres trade would have been Wallner/Raya for Manaea. Not sure if I would have pulled the trigger on that one

Alex Isola will be good I hope.

Anthony Escobar was last seen playing in Venezuela (Tiburones de La Guaira) Niklas Rimmel was last seen playing for the Germany National Team They are still part of the organization, but not assigned to a team

The following players have been Released or Retired Alex Robinson P Ricardo De La Torre SS Yeremi De La Cruz C (Ret.) Victor Heredia 1B Tanner Brubaker P (Ret.) Michael Montero P

Where is Wiel??

Hector Lujan ('15) and Lachlan Wells ('14) seem like they have been around forever. Wondering where they sit on the prospect list....

I think Salva is out of the organization...Casanova is also out

I think Weiss is out of the organization...Phillips is out too

And what will they do with Trevor May??? Another Long Reliever in the bullpen?? So Lynn, Hughes and May will all be in the Bullpen as Long Relief?

Where are Marrero, Baez, De Jesus, Cruz, Rimmel, Breek, and Record? Oh and Akins?

Was Brock Stassi released??

Was Brock Stassi released?????

I my opinion, some combo of these players barring cuts and DL Starters C Bobby Wilson 1B Brock Stassi 2B Taylor Featherston SS Nick Gordon 3B Jermaine Curtis LF Ryan LaMarre CF Nick Buss RF Jake Cave 1B/DH Kennys Vargas Bench C Willians Astudillo C/1B Jordan Pacheco 2B/SS Gregorio Petit SS/3B Leonardo Reginatto CF James Ramsey Starters SP Matt Magill LSP Dietrich Enns SP Myles Jaye SP Aaron Slegers LSP Adalberto Mejia SP Felix Jorge LSP Stephen Gonsalves Relievers RP Alan Busenitz RP D.J. Baxendale RP Tyler Duffey LRP Mason Melotakis RP Jake Reed RP John Curtiss LRP Gabriel Moya

Is this Atlanta Braves Daily?? This St. Paul guy, who won a World Series for the TWINS, gets into the HOF and some people on TWINS Daily seem unhappy or mildly upset that he got in. I'm thrilled for Morris. I am not saying people can't have an opinion, but it feels like there are a lot of Braves fans commenting. And yes, I'm a homer, but geez....enjoy and be happy for Jack.

And he would have to win three World Series....(cough)

Morris had the most WINS of any pitcher in the entire decade of the 80's. 3 World Series rings/3 different teams. Ace of those teams. Bulldog. '91 Game 7. Yeah, he deserves it. Congrats Jack!

Earlier this year I was thinking that we could have an entire Bullpen made up of the 2012 Draft. Still a possibility.

But...can Garver pitch in a mop up roll????? Maybe he should start throwing BP just in case...until then stick with Gimenez

Jones is on the DL but will probably start in AAA. You could replace Jones and Bard with Burdi and Jay. I think it would be interesting if an entire bullpen came from one Draft class.

A possible Bullpen strictly from the 2012 Draft???? In a draft that nabbed Buxton and Berrios (and to a lesser extent AB Walker) the Twins drafted Luke Bard, Mason Melotakis, JT Chargois, Zach Jones, Tyler Duffey, DJ Baxendale and Taylor Rogers. Some relief pitchers are already making an impact, some are on the cusp of a Major League career, some are still projects. What are the chances of that potential Bullpen? If it does happen: Would you be happy with it? Would the 2012 Draft be the best in MN Twins history? http://minnesota.twins.mlb.com/team/draft.jsp?c_id=min&year=2012 Thoughts??

I was listing 4 types of pitchers that would come to a losing team. KC is one example. My point was that high quality pitchers don't sign with losing teams.

No team-changing pitchers sign with last place teams. FA #1 starters are hard to come by. Jack Morris was a 1 ... and he was coming off a bad year. Hopefully Minnesota becomes competitive soon and will be an attractive spot for a FA. Until then, they will keep signing "hole-pluggers"

What pitcher would want to come to a team that lost nearly 200 gms in 2 yrs? It would be a mid to low quality pitcher. Any halfway decent pitcher would take a little less to go to a winning team. As a Twin fan I realized that the FO can throw money at a FA pitcher, but that doesn't mean they want to come here. What you will get is mid-to-low level pitchers like KC, or pitchers coming off injuries like Pelf. You take chances on other pitchers and hope to get lucky like Hughes, or you overpay for mid-level pitchers like Nolasco. Until this team becomes competitive again, FA pitchers willing to come here will be the likes of KC. For someone who makes 5mil a year, I am happy with the production of KC. The only problem I see is that he was put into a 2-3 starter role instead of the 4-5 starter he actually is.
