Ursa Majoris Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 You nailed it. They just broke the news. Indeed they have Thanks for the wins and the fun, Johan, good luck in the future. At least you'll be in the NL, not the AL. Now, which two of those prospects shall we turn into superstars? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

budlitebrad Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Now they just have to put up $150 million. Twins got absolutely nothing in return. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLAYER Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Now they just have to put up $150 million. Twins got absolutely nothing in return. Gomez will be very very good, but is a year or two away. The Twins really screwed themselves by trying to get more from the Yanks and the Sox than their original proposals. When each realized that the other was not going to bite they both pulled them leaving the Twins high and dry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The history of Twins trading (Viola, Knoblauch, Pierzynski, etc) indicates that at least one and probably two of these prospects will do very well in the big leagues. This trade doesn't concern me at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
