Re: ***Official 2007-2008 MLB Offseason Thread***
As a Twins fan I'm pretty unsure of this. I think whether this goes down as a good deal for them or not depends a lot on Pridie. He never really did much in the minors until he made AAA this year where he raked for 250ab. Maybe the Twins saw something they liked back in '06 when he was in spring training with them.
If Pridie can be a starting CF for them this year I guess it is a great deal. If he doesn't amount to much, it probably isn't.
Also, I hope they don't think they are getting any kind of slugger in Delmon Young. Hes got potential, but he also has a ways to go before he is even a league average hitter.
