    Rondell White has to rank up there too

    Yake just announced at $10K

    I agree the comments had the same tone, but the Twins also gave up a top 100 prospect for Maeda, while they gave up a borderline top-20 Twins prospect (from a position of strength) for Odorizzi. So in that sense let's hope Maeda produces even better than Odorizzi.

    67th overall

    Rosenthal now reporting its the Twins comp B pick and not another prospect
  6. redstorm
    "Superintendent"
  7. redstorm
    Wonder if this gives any indication on Donaldson, one way or another..

    Eddie straight up for Alcantara is a long shot. First, Alcantara is under control through 2024, Rosario is through 2021...the Marlins aren't exactly in win-now mode. Even if they were, the Twins would have to add either multiple mid-level prospects or one prospect in the 4-6 range to Rosario to get the Marlins attention

    Pillar fits the biggest need in my opinion. As alluded to, he is good Buxton insurance. Also, his career numbers vs LHP make him a nice option for when you want to give Rosario or Kepler a day off (though both did have improved numbers vs LHP last year)

    Probably as fearful as the Twins pitcher knowing that two of those three would be behind him in the field.

    To further prove your last point: With the new three-batter minimum rule starting in 2020, there may not be LOOGY's on any teams next year. It will be incumbent on all lefty relievers to be able to get right-handed hitters out too.
  12. redstorm
    Rooker is also currently hurt, so he's not an option right now either. If you are saying no to Kirilloff and Larnach, your options are probably de Aza, Barnes, or Wiel...

    The Twins made a trade...Marcos Diplan from the Brewers for cash considerations. Feels weird to be on this end of a cash considerations trade
  14. redstorm
    Would it be worth it? Absolutely. Would the Pirates do it? I highly doubt it. In your proposal, you'd likely have to include BOTH Balazovic and Duran. That would be closer to fair value, and a pretty hard pill to swallow.

    Seems heavy for the Twins. Just Graterol and Gordon should net you Ray, plus probably Bradley and Chafin (which I would do).
  16. redstorm
    The Twins can never be on the right side of things, the one year it's a sellers market and they are buyers (not that I'm complaining about their success, far from it). But it would be nice to get a Pressly-type for a couple of our prospects in the 15-20 range this year instead of giving up a top 5 prospect for Greg Holland or Mychal Givens...
  17. redstorm
    So you wouldn't trade Gordon, Mejia and Stewart for Bumgarner and Will Smith? I believe I would, and I wouldn't expect to be fired if I did...
  18. redstorm
    Good catch, yes those three are good possibilities. Sounds like the Stillwater duo is set on going to Oregon State. Still holding out hope for Antoine Harris, as he was the most highly ranked HS player the Twins drafted that isn't signed, but that may be a pipe dream.
  19. redstorm
    I wonder who the extra money goes to...I am hoping one of the HS players and not the 11th rounder (as was the rumor I heard somewhere). Julien has stated he is returning to Auburn for his senior season.
  20. redstorm
    Per Doogie, Steer signs for $575,000 ($82,600 below slot). Sorry the tweet loads slow, it's because it has a video embedded
  21. redstorm
    Callis reporting that Legumina signs for $250K ($77K over slot). Mildly surprising that they had to go over slot for this one...
  22. redstorm
    I know it's all hypothetical, but it would be nice to see a potential package that the Twins would have to give up for each of these relievers as part of the write-up.
  23. redstorm
    IMO there's a zero percent chance of Washington doing that. I would think they'd want a package similar to the one you laid out for Syndergaard, probably even more than that..especially if you're making them eat 1/3 of the contract.
  24. redstorm
    Just for a visualization, basing it off the Miller tweet referenced in the article (6.25M this year, small raises each year and a $10M option for 2024), probably something like this. Disclaimer, this is my estimation and not the official numbers. 2019: $6,250,000 2020: $6,500,000 2021: $6,850,000 2022: $7,400,000 2023: $8,000,000 2024: $10,000,000 (with $1M buyout)

    Looks like I was a little heavy on the guaranteed money, ESPN is reporting 5 years, $25M guaranteed. http://www.espn.com.au/mlb/story/_/id/25995558/minnesota-twins-jorge-polanco-finalizing-seven-year-25-million-extension
