The Buxton, Correa, Lewis trio is so underwhelming
Correa was never the move for a franchise that limits payroll. The Pohlads are incompetent.
Remember when Sano and Buxton were top prospects? Imagine if we had traded them both. Imagine the haul of guys we could’ve gotten back. If Royce Lewis gets super hot, we should trade him for several top prospects. He’s never gonna stay healthy. Let’s at least try to dump him while his value is high.
@@joshuat7171the move was fine, giving players in small market teams no trade clauses is the problem.
All three disappeared during the playoff run.
The reality is there is no way to replace Buxton right now, there's limited options in free agency for a full time Centerfielder.
E Rodriguez in center in 2025 and jettison Larnach, Kiriloff, Julien, Martin and in a salary dump, Vazquez, who is making more than Ryan or Lewis . Walker should be brought up in September. Keaschall should start at 2b with Correa at ss, Wallner in rf, Lee at 3b, Lewis at DH. LF ? Maybe Buxton if he’s not traded. 1B? Who knows. I’d give Miranda one more year to turn it around. Castro will be too expensive after arbitration, trade him for a reliever. Let Manuel, Santana and Kepler walk. Non-tender Dobnak. 😮
If you could get value for Duran, trade him for a major league ready 1b. He is the sole valuable trade chip, even if he did have an ERA around 5 for the last couple of months.
@@Razorbacks1Rodriguez is the September call up, he's never seen major league pitching. Martin is the replacement for farmer, the Twins don't have many options there. I don't mind dumping larnach but who's his replacement. Kirilloff needs to be nonetendered, no argument there. The Twins should trade Duran and acala, the whole bullpen needs to be revamped behind Jax. You're right, Castro and Julien should also be traded, I just worry about the return the Twins get with fail-vey in charge. Bader is the best option to replace Buxton but that's still gonna cost ten million, see my point?
@@Razorbacks1
Yes to ERod in center. People argue about service time and bringing guys up too soon, but I’m ready for a complete youth overhaul. Remember when the Twins brought up Jacque Jones, Torii Hunter and co? Let’s just do that. Trade the vets and play the young guys.
@@joshuat7171so go from an average team with potential to a bad team, it took many years before that core won and that didn't change till Yohan and Liriano were traded for from that core. 👎👎
Honestly, have either of you put any thought into this or is it just a straight emotional reaction?
The Twins ARE NOT adding any salary, you will only see dumpster fire free agent signings.
Judd: “Manatee!”
Dex: “The sea cow…”
Walker Jenkins will be the answer
I dont think anybody would take him for a bag of chips. He is always hurt.
“Is it a Juan Castro” 😂😂
Here is the question in retrospect would you have signed him to the extension? My answer is a hard NO they have way too much money tied up in a guy that can’t stay on the field. He is not a bad player but it’s too much salary to spend on the IL. The twins would be in a better place building out the roster with that money. If the team isn’t going to be a high payroll organization they need to be smarter about how that allocate salary. So would trade him just for some roster flexibility.
The problem with Buxton is his best year was 2017, he's never been anything but a major league prospect. Honestly, he's never had much trade value, just over hyped.
Trading Buxton would signify that we're rebuilding and then you might as well start looking at trading some other key pieces too. Unless they're there yet, I'm not myself. Buxton's contract is not a lot of money in the grand scheme of things. Also, I predicted the random Twin like 6ish minutes before the answer was guessed. Legend.
Would it really though? Buxton ain’t leading this team anywhere. I wouldn’t build a team with him as an anchor.
The issue is who do you replace Buxton with, there's limited options in free agency and Rodriguez hasn't even played in the majors?
I say keep Buxton and work on finding a younger prospect to fill in behind him and the rest of the outfield.
After the '26 season Buxton is tradeable, maybe stick him in right field so he has less chances to get hurt in the meantime.
@@benjames4502 that's actually a good idea.
Walker Jenkins.
@@nicknaylor8411walker Jenkins is 19 years old and is in double A, are you trying to ruin him?
Bowden has no idea what he's doing. With our salary crunch, FA should be out of the question. To cut muscle to have $ to spend on FA is a recipe for disaster.
Trade Buxton while he still has some (limited!) value.
That Random Twin took you guys way too long to get. I started predicting what clues that Phil would give as he was giving them. I had it within a couple of clues.
35-year-old Jose Quintana screams Minnesota Twin. He’ll give us an 8-10 record and a 4.50 ERA and the club will finish 80-82 next season.
Low risk high reward baby, but seriously it would be nice to get a crafty lefty!
I want Dougie Baseball for the Twins manager.
Luis Severino and Harrison Bader would move the needle in the right direction.
they should have traded buxton before they signed him
when he had value
We are gonna freeze our asses off around the T'in's stove this winter.
If that’s all they are getting for Buxton now… wait another year. 4 more years of this dude and he’ll be in a walker.
no tradehim
Second most expensive disaster!
Buxton has turned out to be nothing but an over-hyped player for 10 years. Hurt all the time. He's just bad news. He can be traded with a no trade clause. He would just need to approve it. If you can dump Buxton you are way ahead.
Who do you replace Buxton with?
He has been great at times. I know those times aren’t very often but when he’s on he’s an all star. Definitely not over hyped
The whole key with Buxton if you can get him to 100 games which isn’t asking a whole lot in reality at the end of those 100 games will he be any type of healthy for a playoff push.. if the answer is no you don’t think he can after playing 100 games then yeah you gotta trade him while u can.
I think Buxton still has value one of these teams would love to trade for him & just see like we have been doing for years.
Who do you replace Buxton with in center field, there's very limited options in free agency and Rodriguez hasn't played in the majors yet?
@@benjames4502 honestly I would be fine with the Twins throwing in the towel & rebuilding, team is a mess not even a likable bunch right now.
call him up depending on whom they could get in return or via other transactions,
Or just let Kiersy Jr play in CF to start 2025 let either guy get ABs but that’s only if they think Buxton can’t be healthy for a 100 games and or post season which I kind of feel like they don’t think he can by now.
@@clutchclaytvBuxton may be traded after the '26 season as that's when his no trade clause is up, in the meantime the Twins should put him in RF which hopefully keeps him off the IL and builds up Buxton's trade value. This also gives the Twins time to call up rookies for the outfield, I wish I had better ideas.
Dollar for dollar Buxton's a great deal no matter how many games he plays. Quit cutting muscle, you need to cut fat if you are cutting.
The Twins are a dumpster fire with idiot 2nd and 3rd generation owners trying to sell the team. Buxton would be a great fit on a perennial playoff team that has a chance to make a deep run, but what good is he on a team with paper thin pitching and half the team misses as many or more games than he does? This trade may not be the one but if you can talk him into waving his no trade clause at the trade deadline, you may be able to get young players that will help down the road when there is new ownership and a new president of baseball operations that can actually put together a winning team.
Who do you replace Buxton with?
E Rodriguez
@@Razorbacks1he's never seen major league pitching, you still have to sign a back up which will cost 6 - 8 million for a part time player. Honestly, you didn't think this through did you?
Trade Buxton and Correa, adopt the Tigers style pitching rotation
Disagree on C4. Still the elite of the elite at SS. But I’m ready to let Buxton fly. It would be nice to see him have that healthy first half right away tho.
The issue with that idea is the prospects won't be ranked in those trades and the Twins will have to eat a portion of their contracts.
They should open their wallets? With out mr glass
