As a Twins fan I like this deal. If he can keep up what he did last season then we definitely got a good deal. Hopefully Nolasco can turn things around this year and be possible trade bait down the line. By September I would love to see a rotation of Hughes, Santana, Gibson, Meyer, Berrios.

Gotta hope Hughes can keep it going. Seems a bit premature IMO. If he can it'll be a good deal but I would expect some sort of regression.

Nice move by the Twins.

While I realize he's not the same pitcher he was while with the Yanks, I still can't help but feel that it's a lot of money for him.

These pitching moves haven't seemed to work out very well for the Twins recently.

If you look at what other middle tier pitchers are being paid, then this deal isn't so bad. The Giants are paying Jake Peavy similar money.

Agreed. I think people forget he is just going to be in his 29 year old season next year, it seems he has been around for a while. Last season was his first over 200 innings. While last season is not a fair sample going forward, if he can put in that amount of work he will be a solid value going forward.
