Am i missing something, did we trade him... http://www.haloscan.com/comments/jj21/3091186793280852883/?src=hsr#1284089 Sat, 14 Nov 2009 13:03:37 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/jj21/3091186793280852883/?src=hsrs#1284089 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/jj21/3091186793280852883/?src=hsrs#1284089 If they traded for Phillips, they could move Mauer up to two and hit Phillips among the others in the middle of the order. http://www.haloscan.com/comments/jj21/3443769936953266301/?src=hsr#1266108 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 05:56:59 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/jj21/3443769936953266301/?src=hsrs#1266108 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/jj21/3443769936953266301/?src=hsrs#1266108 Lopez is the best available 2B. His defense, eye, and athleticism would be a huge boost in the lineup and on the field. The Twins are in a win now mode and need two additional pickups besides Hardy. Lopez is one and Harden is the other. Payroll is still under 100 and the three new players allow the younger players an opportunity to learn in the minors, something Young and Gomez never were allowed http://www.haloscan.com/comments/jj21/3443769936953266301/?src=hsr#1263295 Fri, 06 Nov 2009 14:58:11 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/jj21/3443769936953266301/?src=hsrs#1263295 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/jj21/3443769936953266301/?src=hsrs#1263295 Right on Josh! I've been on the Lopez bandwagon for awhile, even at the trading deadline, and my enthusiasm for him hasn't gone away. We could then plug Punto at 3B until Valencia is ready (he could be a bench bat down the stretch and take over once Punto's contract expires at the end of this year if nothing else...) http://www.haloscan.com/comments/jj21/1971748205003689148/?src=hsr#1262933 Fri, 06 Nov 2009 13:15:45 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/jj21/1971748205003689148/?src=hsrs#1262933 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/jj21/1971748205003689148/?src=hsrs#1262933 If Redmond decides to hang it up rather than keep playing, the Twins should find him a minor league job to get him some coaching knowledge. Would love to see him at 1st or 3rd base as coach some day. Go Twins http://www.haloscan.com/comments/jj21/3443769936953266301/?src=hsr#1262695 Fri, 06 Nov 2009 12:05:03 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/jj21/3443769936953266301/?src=hsrs#1262695 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/jj21/3443769936953266301/?src=hsrs#1262695 I would be nice to see Figgins at 3B but we have Valenica knocking at the door. I can handle Punto or Harris at 3B for the beginning of the season if Danny would be ready come June 1st. I thin=k Josh hit it spot on with the Lopez take, O. Hudson could fill that role that as well. Can't wait to see what happens over the next 5 months. http://www.haloscan.com/comments/jj21/3443769936953266301/?src=hsr#1262555 Fri, 06 Nov 2009 11:15:31 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/jj21/3443769936953266301/?src=hsrs#1262555 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/jj21/3443769936953266301/?src=hsrs#1262555 I know it's not realistic, but the idea of Figgins' glove at third, and OBP/speed between Span and Mauer, makes me too happy to think about for very long. http://www.haloscan.com/comments/jj21/4030434920913651671/?src=hsr#1262503 Fri, 06 Nov 2009 10:43:00 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/jj21/4030434920913651671/?src=hsrs#1262503 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/jj21/4030434920913651671/?src=hsrs#1262503 Great points, Peter. http://www.haloscan.com/comments/jj21/4030434920913651671/?src=hsr#1262432 Fri, 06 Nov 2009 10:04:21 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/jj21/4030434920913651671/?src=hsrs#1262432 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/jj21/4030434920913651671/?src=hsrs#1262432 That's a nice line on the ladies Josh, baseball is about business too and merchandizing is being affected by Jeters, Mauers and Hardies... Check it out you Pohlad bros... http://www.haloscan.com/comments/jj21/4030434920913651671/?src=hsr#1262196 Fri, 06 Nov 2009 06:58:42 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/jj21/4030434920913651671/?src=hsrs#1262196 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/jj21/4030434920913651671/?src=hsrs#1262196 Well, the trade wasn't for pitching but all in all not a bad move. I agree that the outfield defensively will be alittle scary next year, but DY could be gone for an upgrade in left. I still don't think we should sign Cabrera. There are better options out there and will Go Go Gone that "veteran voice" is not need as much. I would like to see the FO target O. Hudson for 2nd and let Nicky be
