All Things 2025-26 Minnesota Twins Off-Season Thread

Vazquez open to returning to the Twins.

Christian Vázquez will be a free agent; are the Twins interested in re-signing him?

A veteran catcher known for his strong defense stayed with the team during the trade deadline because of his bulky salary.

Close the door. Move on with life Christian.

Around $4M for part time work, plus increasing your MLB pension?

Fine. Sucker some other team into that deal. His choice will be to retire or play for the veteran minimum unless Falvey falls for it.

The number comes from the article I posted on it, mss as king the comp between him and Austin Hedges, another veteran backup who had a $4M salary last season.

Obviously they should sign him to as low as possible, but a decent defender who hits .200 or less isn’t likely going to be had for league minimum.

So

FWIW, I would like someone different as he’s been here long enough

Hedges isn't worth $4 million either. Ridiculous. Pereda was better than Vazquez and he was making the minimum.

$30 million over 3 years to produce a negative net WAR.

Relaying the opinion of Gleeman. I watched zero games after the break snd pocketed $25 month for no MLB TV subscription

$30 million over 3 years to produce a negative net WAR.

No one’s disputing that’s rancid
