It is an odd off-season. It started off very poorly. Then in the last two weeks, Correa resigns with the Twins after having issues with two other teams injury and contract length. Then the Twins went out and traded for a SP that has potential to be a #1 SP. Hoping that by trading away the best hitter on the team they improve SP. They also hope that some of the younger players in waiting step up and fill the void.

We actually got a fair deal on him. 6 years guarantee and 4 more at our option. I hope you're right about the pitcher. Maybe Rocco might let him get past 4 innings. Naw.
I used to be a big Kepler fan but now I'd move him.
The Twins have a lot to show me for me to get excited. I'd feel a lot better if they got a new manager.

I'd feel better if they got rid of Rocco. Lopez is a #2, but he has what 5 pitches he can throw. It's better than getting reclamation projects that they have been doing the last numerous seasons.

They also picked up Joey Gallo. He's a super solid power hitter-good fielder type but he hit a buck sixty and strikes out every other at bat. :)
Like Sano but less money.
