Should Minnesota Twins be open to trading superstar Carlos Correa?

[@bshaker1188]

The only way I would trade Correa is if the Twins get a pitcher in return with a solid history of arm problems.

[@benjames4502]

"Burn"

[@rickmeisch643]

Why not ? Lol

[@stoozdee]

You crazy SOB. I’m in.

[@MoreCheddarBayBiscuits]

Any time I hear, "the Twins are in a win now" mindset, I laugh. No team that wants to win refuses to invest in their team when they have really good pieces in place. They're in a "how can we sell this team" mindset. They don't give a shit about winning the World Series.

[@iwannatalktosampson5852]

If it's a real trade where you get actual pieces in return . If it's a salary dump you mind as well trade everyone who's making money why stop at Correa if your gonna give away your best player for pennies . Honestly should of just let him walk in free agency if you were never serious about winning and we're gonna just move on because the pohlads wanna cut payroll every year

[@jasonkorf7700]

It's always depends on the return. However, we still have the Pohlads as owners and this feels more like a spite move by gutting the roster before they sell in the name of flexibility.

[@benjames4502]

If you've been reading the "Twins Daily", management has been floating trading Correa, Buxton, Lopez, Ryan and Duran, basically salary dump.

[@jasonkorf7700]

​@benjames4502 Yep, if the rumors are true, they are gonna dismantle the roster before selling.

[@JWickyJr13]

With respect, it would have been more shocking to me if Judd said he wasn't interested in trading Correa.

[@bradgast3028]

I hope if Correa wants out he won't go public, because it'd be like putting a "FIRE SALE" sign out. Therefore we'd never get a decent offer, much like when they broadcasted we were cutting budget last season. They never got any feasible offers. Absolute terrible move

[@rickmeisch643]

Trade Correa is good with me, if he’s so good a pair of darn good players should come of it! I doubt if he wants to play here with the owners being so miracle minded over how competitive the team is I think it’s even enough to mentally bring on his aches and pains.

[@jamesroberts3189]

The Twins are such simps. Correa, who played only 86 games last year, has a progressively worse injury outlook, and makes $37,000,000 next year can have any leverage is beyond me!

[@esohny]

Why not? They aren't trying to win anyway.

[@doppeldipper7111]

Carlos Correa the player is really good. Carlos Correa's second contract after failing two physicals is atrocious.

[@mullen25]

i like him as a player but what is his market anyway,. he makes a ton of money and has missed a lot of games since signing his contract. derek falvey hasn't had enough success to warrant being promoted to a team president. this organization is clueless. hopefully the team is sold soon.

[@benjames4502]

Carlos Correa is a 4 plus war shortstop, he's worth top 25 prospect in the MLB pipeline, top 50 prospect in an organizational pipeline and a player to be named later.

[@mikefingerbottom2669]

You guys are hilarious. The twins were the only team who wanted to pay correa that kind of money 2 years ago. He was UFA, and 29 of 30 teams passed. Since then he has only tanked his value by playing half the season due to a myriad of injuries, while also sabotaging the locker room by throwing the young players under the bus, while also loafing on plays. You would be lucky, very lucky to get anyone to take him off your hands for anything other than an equally bad slate of negative value contracts in return. MLB doesn't allow trading draft picks (for the most part) so salary dumping your mistakes is extremely difficult. This isn't the NBA. When you make $30 million per year, and only play half the season, you are being paid at a $60 million salary on a per game basis. That is Ohtani money, and correa isn't worth anything close to that. Plus there is the ugly fact that he has several years left on this contract, and might even play less than half the season moving forward. It was one of the worst contracts ever given out in MLB, just like the Donaldson one before it. The idea that you are going to get "2 of the top 10 prospects" from some contender in a trade package is a pipe dream. -Guardians fan

[@Cottoncandyrandy458]

Correa is a good player. Very good, and clutch. Doesn’t disappear like Jram in the playoffs. You are going way overboard.

[@RobbyBJust1B4IDIE]

Anyone thinking this team is in a position to compete for the central is a delusional level of optimism

[@DrewPowell-d6w]

Absolutely

[@frederickvondrasek5618]

EVERYONE but the Twins knew this guy was damaged goods before they signed him--that's how they could sign him. It would be nice if it meant getting rid of the salary.

[@brittanynfanning]

Frankly, I wouldnt put too much stock in titles or promotions. Clearly, from a business standpoint, the Pohlads are cutting wages to help right size the business. I'm sure they fully expect the new ownership to "clean house" and replace Falvey and everyone else with their own people. 1.) Consolidating wages. 2.) Keeping a stable leadership until the new ownership decides who they want to replace the old leadership. Why can Falvey and rehire when the new ownership is going to replace whoever you put in there anyways?

[@Cottoncandyrandy458]

They will never get a player of his caliber through a trade of him. It would be very hard to support

[@genechristensen6900]

Twins won't win with Pablo as their "ace".

[@henzy12-k6y]

What is happening with this team? Like honestly this is the most meh I have felt about this organization in quite some time. Stuck in limbo. Not trading people (at least yet). Front office is shuffling cards. The players can’t figure it out when it matters most (again). We can’t stay healthy. We won’t spend. It’s such a headache to even care or talk about this team until they actually do something worth talking about.

[@Razorbacks1]

Correa for Volpe, Gil and a top 10 Yankee prospect, hopefully a catcher.

[@benjames4502]

There will have to be a salary dump coming from the Yankees, it's either DJ LeMahieu or marcus stroman.

[@NathanMuckala-gb7is]

Hey judd can you do a random wild player with jessi and a.j

[@noahwelch2931]

Even when Carlos Correa is at his best, it’s not like he’s an MVP candidate. There are teams like the Yankees and Dodgers who have like 4-5 as good as Carlos Correa on their roster. My point is, Correa isn’t this precious resource we need to protect. The only way we can make it to the WS is to either have a fluke DBacks run (which won’t ever happen in Minnesota) or to go full Rays. Might as well listen in on calls for Carlos

[@benjames4502]

If that was true why were the dodgers using Mookie Betts as shortstop, next time think before you post.

[@noahwelch2931]

@ Maybe you misunderstood, obviously not everyone can play the position like he can, but the value as Correa as a whole is replicated but so many others throughout those teams

[@benjames4502]

​@@noahwelch2931Mookie Betts is a generational player and he couldn't play for a plus war at shortstop which is why he got moved back to his old position. Shortstops, all-star caliber who have play off credentials are far and few in between. The only shortstops in MLB that have his pedigree are Seager and Turner, nice try.

[@iwannatalktosampson5852]

Can't wait for the pohlads to sell I Hope the new owners aren't just as cheap although won't hold my breath probably only sell to someone who values the business over winning

[@benjames4502]

Who cares what Correa wants, he's under contract, period.

[@brittanynfanning]

He has a no trade clause so he has to agree to any trade.

[@benjames4502]

​@@brittanynfanningI was talking about if he wants to be traded, you are correct.

[@GregNelson-e6f]

Who cares? Trade him. Hes an expensive player for a team going nowhere

[@benjames4502]

Correa for volpe, Spencer Jones and stroman as a salary dump for the Yankees.

[@clutchclaytv]

They should be interested in rebuilding around him I would trade Buxton & or Royce before him

[@claudesylvanshine6551]

Get gid of all the damaged goods: Buxton, Lewis, and Correa. Throw Dobnak in too

[@spinorama29]

Short answer: No. Long answer: Noooooooooooooooo.

[@tokyosan7906]

meh

[@daniellarsen889]

Trade Correa to the Yankees for Jazz Chisholm and Marcus Stroman. Move Royce to short and Jazz will play 3rd.
