    You really don't want Luis Arraez at third base. His arm is not good enough for the hot corner.
  2. Brock Beauchamp
    Oh, I just mean that's a lot of talent moving between two teams. I don't even know how to start unpacking the potential value for each team. It's a lot to sort out.
  3. Brock Beauchamp
    I haven’t looked at this in a few weeks. I also need to add Winker and Toro. Anyone else?
  4. Brock Beauchamp
    The Twins made out like bandits. They jumped from 13 to 5.
  5. Brock Beauchamp
    *whistles softly* That'd be a hell of a deal.
  6. Brock Beauchamp
    Huh. An opt-out on a two year deal, it appears. Who does Bell think he is, Carlos Correa?
  7. Brock Beauchamp
    Hmm, two year deal to a notoriously cheap organization. I wanted Bell quite a bit and depending on the money involved (and again, it's Cleveland), this seems reasonable.
  8. Brock Beauchamp
    Struggles breed frustration which breeds discontent. We'll see if going back to a more hitter-friendly park and a clean slate does for Winker. And either way, it's a one-year deal and a contract year for him. If he's going to be on his best behavior and perform at his highest level, now is the time.
  9. Brock Beauchamp
    Two year deal? Good for Jace!
  10. Brock Beauchamp
    I know a lot of people hate it but I kinda like the idea of a draft lottery. It takes something completely mundane and makes a small spectacle of it.
  11. Brock Beauchamp
    Not really, though. The Brewers can guarantee Burnes a boatload of money today while otherwise, he risks things going badly over the next 24 months waiting for that hypothetical money. We all love Corbin Burnes but he was bad as recently as 2019. Then there was a shortened 2020 season. It wouldn't be insane for him to take deferred money today as risk mitigation for tomorrow. Some guys bet on themselves and lose. Others take the money today. Either option is fine and I have no idea what Corbin himself is thinking right now.

    Bumping this because I'm an idiot and accidentally published it retroactively instead of publishing it tomorrow.
  13. Brock Beauchamp
    I fully agree the Twins won't get a top flight starter for Arraez alone. It's going to require someone else in the deal and that player will need to be legitimately promising. And the more I think about it, Kirilloff just isn't a good fit for the Brewers anyway. He's left-handed, plays meh LF, and is really a good first baseman. That's not a profile the Brewers really need right now given their plethora of OF prospects and the fact something will need to be done with Yelich.
  14. Brock Beauchamp
    That's a pretty fair deal and I would snatch that up if I was the Brewers. I think the Twins would be more likely to balk at that because Kirilloff is in the deal. He has had some freak IL stints (his wrist bone was literally too long and had to be shaved down). While he's certainly an unknown quantity - wrist injuries can really be hard to overcome - if you saw this guy hit while he was healthy, you'd badly want him on your team. He's just an all-around incredible bat. Good contact, good average, decent discipline, good power. He has the potential to perennially be one of those .290/.350/.450 guys we just don't see in baseball much anymore.
  15. Brock Beauchamp
    Welcome to the site! The Twins aren't going to have much interest in Lauer. They already have a rotation full of pitchers of his caliber. The Twins are aiming higher than that, they already have the depth.
  16. Brock Beauchamp
    Eh, I don't really have a strong rooting interest in one over the other. I guess I lean Twins a bit but seeing the Brewers win their FIRST World Series would be awesome. And at this point, I'm really just pulling for the Twins to win ONE playoff game. And in deals like this, I try to evaluate the players objectively and find comparable value. Canterino's a fine prospect and all but I think he's more likely to become a good bullpen piece than a good starter.
  17. Brock Beauchamp
    Oh, I think the value difference is considerable, especially given that we can't predict continued health 12 months from now.
  18. Brock Beauchamp
    Well played, sir.
  19. Brock Beauchamp
    Wow, okay. I expected Correa to go off the board first.
  20. Brock Beauchamp
    Yeah, I do not understand how BTV is grading out Burnes and Woodruff in comparison to one another.
  21. Brock Beauchamp
    Yeah, I'm not sure that makes the Twins all that much better. Really depends if they get a top SS or not. But I think the Twins would be loathe to sell so low on Kirilloff. He's a top flight prospect if he ever gets his wrist sorted out.
  22. Brock Beauchamp
    This sounds about right in Kirilloff. I think the Brewers would have to really like what they see in Canterino to do that deal. Personally, I'd want a nicer second piece than Canterino.
  23. Brock Beauchamp
    And that means the Twins will need to offer more than just Arraez. Which could work out for both teams, really.
  24. Brock Beauchamp
    Woof. I hope they fail spectacularly in their pursuit of such a player.
  25. Brock Beauchamp
    Oh, I think their strategy is good, there's just quite a bit of risk in it. If I was the Mets, I wouldn't hesitate to play in those waters, either.
