I'd have to say the Twins say no

Now it isn't that the trade is horrible for the Twins, but how does he fit with this team?

He's not been much better over the course of his career than any of the Twins top guys right now. He also blocks Berrios and takes a rotation spot that they don't have to give and, if I'm not mistaken, he will be a free agent at the end of the year.

No thanks.

I agree with you I'm just thinking playoff-wise if the Twins get into the playoffs, then look at the pitchers they are stuck with (Duffey, Berrios, Hughes, Santana, maybe Milone, and maybe Gibson)? They need someone that at least can get them thru the year at the Twins price range.

Eh, I would pass up on this. Twins value Jay alot.

Wait, the Padres get to clear Cashner's salary, get a first-round draft pick, AND get $800K?

Shouldn't the money go to Minnesota to cover Cashner's salary?
