The Twins wouldn’t be able to do it. That’s the issue. They have zero chance of signing a guy like Ohtani even if they offered him more than the Dodgers. No player is going to defer that much money at a smaller market.

Maybe, maybe not. But man Buxton looks so good right now. Like he's a legit top 5 in the AL MVP race right now.

"Yeah but playing Northwestern or Maryland is just like playing a non P4 team. While playing Kentucky or Mississippi St is like playing the 3rd best team in the Big Ten." I think I did that right.

If this core doesn't get it done it's going to be because guys like Correa, Lewis, Ober, etc didn't get it done. Right now you have one of the top CF in the game, two legit top pitchers and a really good bullpen. Getting rid of anyone of them seems counterproductive.

I disagree but I get it.

Don't forget Blake Cashman

I don't get why so many people want to trade our best players that are under team control for multiple years at a team friendly cost.

Saw a report that the asking price for Jax or Duran is multiple top 100 prospects. If they could get a say top 30 and top 75 I'd probably do it. But if it's two from the 75-100 range, I'd pass.

You’d be making success tougher in the next few years. Even if they get a nice return, the prospects are not likely to have the same impact that Duran or Jax would have the next two seasons. I don’t think they really need to buy a buyer or seller. Sure look to move guys like Bader and...

So you guys are ready to give up on the next few seasons? If not, it makes no sense to deal guys like Jax and Duran. Unless you get a very big return which is unlikely. Two high end relievers under contract for a few more years and aren’t costing a lot is pretty nice to have.

I mean the Twins did hit the crap out of the ball, especially in the last two innings.
