That doesn't even begin the conversation. We just don't have the guns in the farm system frankly.

[Guest]

They're talking Kemp, LaRoche and Kershaw for starters from the Dodgers - the Cubs don't have anyone equivalent to any of those 3 except maybe Pie.

Pie is solid, Gallagher is alright, but Marshall and Fontenot are nothing special. The Twins probably laugh that one off and trade him to the Dodgers or Angels for their gems.

[Knyption]

But he will be a FA after next year.

 

What if Cuban trades the farm and 10 mil for him? lolo

Most trade possibilities involve Santana signing an extension.

[Knyption]

i dunno what it will take but all i know is if they wanna WS he would be a key item and if they sign thier souls to the devil its worth it as long as they get AROD

 

 

AROD + Santana i mean what else ??

[Little Slide Rooter]

Pie, Theriot, Marshall + 2 of Gallagher/Veal/Samardzia.

Keep dreaming.

 

It's not a realistic possibility. We don't have enough and no package you come up with will be able to land him.

The Cubs are not going to be able to trade for Santana without Rich Hill being part of any deal.

[UMFan83]

Zambrano (eat 50% of salary), Prior, Marmol, Pie...are we getting somewhere?

Replace Prior with Hill and they might start listening. You could probably replace Zambrano with Ramirez too

lol..tell me you are not serious with that post?!!?!?!?

[nikao]

The Twins don't really need pitching, though I'm sure they wouldn't mind a starter of the Marshall variety back in this deal. They need bats--particularly power bats at 3rd or in the OF (especially if Torii leaves). And something inexpensive, since Mauer and Morneau only have a few years left. I just don't think the Cubs have that kind of cheap offensive talent at the positions the Twins need.

The first thing you will need is a sex tape of new GM Bill Smith. The 2nd thing you will need is an 8 year/$200 million dollar contract extension.

Pie? Are you crazy? I would never give up Pie. How about Guzman instead?

Again--the need is a bat (or 2 or 3) in Minnesota. How would this deal be in the least bit attractive? The only offensive player here is Fontenot, and the Twins have plenty of those already. I'm not sure even Pie is enough--his ML experience hasn't exactly inspired confidence. Somebody like Soto might be a start, but the Twins are obviously set at catcher for now, unless they decide to move Mauer to a different position.

Unless you're using the term "offensive" as in how he offends us with how bad he is, I don't think it really applied to Fontenot.

Guys, I think we're not looking outside the box

 

We could trade Minnesota....the cubs

 

think about it
