    Went to last night's game and saw CHS for the first time. Lovely field, very good Saints team, ugly uniforms. Really, they're bad. What a great place to watch a ballgame, though!
  2. Brock Beauchamp
    That's not Tapia's floor. His floor is "never reaching the majors". While I don't disagree with the sentiment the Rays won the deal, that's a pretty ridiculous statement that'd I'd expect from a message board, not a BA analyst.
  3. Brock Beauchamp
    Agreed. I don't expect the guy to come to Minnesota and OPS at a .900 clip, I only expect him to help the team raise its (pathetic) .687 OPS against RHP. And considering how Shane Robinson is the guy blocking Arcia with Buxton on the way in the next few weeks, there's no reason not to pull the trigger on this move. There is literally nothing to lose unless both Hicks and Rosario suffer an injury at the same time (in the next two weeks before Byron is finished rehabbing). I'd say the odds of that happening are... low.
  4. Brock Beauchamp
    Edited for clarity.
  5. Brock Beauchamp
    Sigh.

    The Ramos deal was "tear your hair out, WTF are you thinking" across the board. Ramos was a former top 100 prospect. He was injured and his value had bottomed out. The Twins had no catching prospects behind him higher than low A ball. That trade still pisses me off. The thinking behind it was so fundamentally flawed I still can't believe Smith pulled the trigger on it.
  7. Brock Beauchamp
    Sure. I'm not claiming Hu had no value but this board erupted into mayhem after the trade, way beyond what was warranted. Yes, it was an overpay. No, it was not a disaster (assuming Jepsen doesn't implode). Hu never cracked a top 100 list. It was incredibly unlikely he would ever crack a top 100 list. It's also possible, maybe even likely, this is Hu's high water mark in value. It was a bad trade (mostly because two pitchers were included, IMO) but it's a long way from Ramos/Capps in terms of "holy ****, what are you thinking?" The way people are acting, you'd think Hu has the upside of Berrios, Gonsalves, or Thorpe. He doesn't. He doesn't even have the upside of a strikeout-diminished Stewart, IMO.
  8. Brock Beauchamp
    I believe he's supposed to start his rehab today or tomorrow.
  9. Brock Beauchamp
    Shocking.
  10. Brock Beauchamp
    It appeared Nunez' helmet made it to first before he did. Unbelievable.
  11. Brock Beauchamp
    That inning was a good example why young teams struggle to win down the stretch. Rosario has an absolutely awful at-bat, Hicks gives it the ol' college try but gets screwed by the ump.
  12. Brock Beauchamp
    Kurt will not go quietly into the night.
  13. Brock Beauchamp
    Yeah. Terrible call.
  14. Brock Beauchamp
    A completely unhittable pitch. Can't fault Aaron for that one.
  15. Brock Beauchamp
    Rosario's free-swinging nature gets the best of him there.
  16. Brock Beauchamp
    I know. LOL.
  17. Brock Beauchamp
    .5
  18. Brock Beauchamp
    Price is not on his game right now. The Twins need to take advantage of it.
  19. Brock Beauchamp
    Damn, Miguel Sano is good at teh beisbol.
  20. Brock Beauchamp
    BUNTING IN THE THIRD INNING ARRRGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
  21. Brock Beauchamp
    Yes, this. Hu was nothing like a top ten prospect in the organization and if he is, your organization is in sorry shape. With that said, Ryan still gave up too much for a reliever having a down year. I have no issue trading Hu but I have an issue with the return (and giving up Tapia as well!), which was unimpressive. Jepsen isn't a bad reliever but he's not very good, either... especially given his recent control issues and dip in velocity (though that may have returned).
  22. Brock Beauchamp
    Ah, I was going from memory. Thought it was more like 2.
  23. Brock Beauchamp
    I agree but the Twins need at least two guys better than everybody they have to stabilize the bullpen.
  24. Brock Beauchamp
    Underwhelming. A nice complementary guy having a down season but I hope he's not the only addition.
  25. Brock Beauchamp
    As would I and I think the Broxton pickup was a good one by the Cards. But I'll wait for 3:30pm to come around before I declare it a failure on Ryan's part to miss out on Broxton. (but IMO, there's a decent chance 3:30 comes around and we all groan and roll our eyes)
