I just think people are acting like rebuilding a good bullpen is easy. There's a reason so many teams are trying to acquire bullpen help. Because it's hard to build a good one.

If they trade Joe Ryan they won't have to worry about remaking the bullpen for at least 2 seasons, as they won't be relevant any way.
 

I am all in on blowing it all up. The core of this team went as far as it could.

Time for a complete rebuild with keeping Joe Ryan at the top of the rotation.

They haven't done anything that cripples their ability to compete in 2026.

Buxton, Lewis, Wallner, Larnach, Jeffers, Lee remain.

Lopez, Ryan, Ober, Festa

Jax, Varland, Sands

About $50 million to spend.

Kind of surprised Larnach wasn’t dealt.

2025 so far has been a lost season for Wallner. Looks like has no clue at the plate.

Would have rather seen Jax traded instead of Duran.
 


Bleep you Carlos. You were paid $37million to perform like a replacement player. You are a big reason for why the twins are where they are.

The funny thing with Wallner is he has a higher OPS than every Twins hitter except Buxton, Bader and Clemens. His SLG and OBP have been solid. He walks a lot and when he hits the ball, he hits with a lot of power. But yes, he needs to make more contact. I'm hoping he can rebound.
 






Toby Gardenhire bringing all the players together that are being called up to let them know.

Fox Sports with the all time screw up of all time. They reported that Joe Ryan was traded to the Red Sox. hahaha. the Tweet was deleted after that.

 







Varland to Toronto. That’s a puzzling one as he was under team control until 2030 and seemed like a natural replacement to Duran.

I guess you better be careful what you ask for. I asked for them to blow it up and they did. It’s a smoking crater at target field right now.
 



Either they have a buyer lined up who made the call to gut as much of the roster as they could for a clean slate, or the Pohlads took advantage of the murky situation they created to slash all the payroll they could.

Yea, don't get Varland at all. Relatively inexpensive, under contract next few years and possible new closer. God, hope they got something good for him.
Jax too.
