Not a fan of the Hughes contract at all although I'd still take that deal over the Vargas contract.
On a side note, I'm interested to see how much of the farm system Dayton Moore sells off after this season to try to lock up another extension.

They are probably thinking them 2 top 10 prospects will be ready for the big leagues within the next 2 years and they need some sort of staff to put around them.
But you are exactly right, just like they couldnt build a staff around 5 #5s they arent going to be in much better shape with a #3, a #4, and 3 #5 starters. As far as I know they dont even anything in the minors close to being ready that could be a top of the rotation starter either. I think the desperate for pitching describes the Twins.
