  1. Don’t forget fielding. We just needed lots of pitching, a middle of the order bat, a platoon righty for a corner outfield spot, and better defense at several positions. That’s all we needed! Some would call this a sell situation. But I digress.
  2. The most overrated prospect would get more clicks. 😀 Just say’in.
  3. And yet, they still have a reasonable chance of outperforming the current alternatives. Jenkins has a higher OPS in the same AAA league than Max Clark, and Clark has a 228 OPS+ in his first 4 games with Detroit. It happens. And if it doesn’t…it’s not like they would be taking playing time from Cal Ripken and Mickey Mantle.
  4. There’s 2nd-half Joe…and then there’s this. Getting knocked around by the 2026 Royals with AND without Witt Jr. Something’s wrong with the arm, right?
  5. Ergo, if a prospect has never fielded a ball in the majors,…true for 100% of prospects…it’s guaranteed that he’ll fail. Your logic is…astounding.
  6. You’re right. Jeffers sucks. We should bring up Lackey.
  7. Not buying that. They could make Jeffers play without a mitt and he’d have more value than the guys they’re playing. More likely the Pohlads simply didn’t have the balls to trade him…because you know…buying not selling is what the masses wanted. Possible but less likely, they plan on QO’ing him and think he’ll take it.
  8. Should have been selling, IMO. And I’d say the same if Kremer, Minter and Hoffman throw a combined no-hitter tomorrow.
  9. Whether I’m reading it or hearing it…I like it. Most of all, I’d like to SEE it.
  10. Not quite as impressive when you consider 6 of those games were against Oakland and Kansas City.
  11. You know the ALC is gonna get a win…when they face each other.
  12. I can think of dozens, all in the Asian time zones.
  13. Eyes have improved since you played. No fur growing around them now.
  14. Who knows what’s been living in that unopened wallet for the past 39 years.
  15. I remain confident that if we continue to play like we’ve been playing…and by that I mean 6 of every 9 games against the Royals…we make the postseason.
  16. He’s very “range challenged”. Canon for an arm, and isn’t going to embarrass himself with the glove, but they’re already starting to play him a bunch at 1B. You’re right, I don’t think they’re particularly wanting to put him in a major league outfield for long stretches.
  17. KC’s last win was Dobnak’s last start. Against the Twins. Were just swept by the Rockies. What? Me worry?
  18. The opportunity cost of not trading Ryan. Twice…so far.
  19. By fly ball do you mean 103 mph line shot?
  20. “…while also acquiring Dean Kremer from the Baltimore Orioles to provide another quality starter for the rotation.” Come on. Have you no shame?
  21. Yep. Even as a fan, I’m not interested in management “proving” anything to me. I’m interested in them making smart moves that build a championship-caliber team, even if those moves are ‘controversial’, and especially if they take some intestinal fortitude and long-sight vision to make. This deadline had none of that. Not that I was expecting it.
  22. The offers were probably very good for a rental. Numerous big spenders wanted a catcher. The returns were very good in the deals that were made.
