    How long does the present ownership get to continue with this mode of operation? Cuz that is their never ending theory.
  2. sweetmusicviola16
    When Turner signed for 11/300 there was no choice but to up the offer, even if they would have been "bidding against themselves". Either be prepared to go higher than 10/285 or they should have never been playing in the deep end of the pool from the beginning. FWIW I'm not upset about not getting Correa, but the fact is they have played this off season very very poorly. Couldn't do much worse.

    9/300 This would have shown they were serious bidders/players in the game. We also would not have been paying him for 13 years, which is the complaint of many. He would have been 36 in the final season. I get the AAV would have been higher, but you can't have everything. Whatever. No elite players are coming to MN.

    Falvey prefers the second option. LOL

    What good does the Luxury Tax do? The big markets obviously don't care if they pay it. The small market owners pocket millions that they don't spend on their teams and love the tax. Broken system.
  6. sweetmusicviola16
    Reaquire IKF from NYY.
  7. sweetmusicviola16
    No to Eovoldi. Not worth the QO pick loss. The price is steep. Not to mention he's hardly ever remained healthy. I'd like to see them look closely at Zach Greinke. Easy pass for me on Pollock. Drury? Sure if they were to trade Arraez. Hope that doesn't happen.
  8. sweetmusicviola16
    Adamses. Not going to happen. imo. Hand and Smith would be worth a try, probably as good as anyone else still available. Evoldi, no. I'd sign Greinke for a 1 and an option year.
  9. sweetmusicviola16
    Standing alone, sure 11 mil, who cares? You are right it's not my money either. And as of now not much left to blow Pohlad's money on. But the signing doesn't stand alone. This money could have been spent on a much better player earlier in the signing period.. Bassitt comes to my mind for one. Abreu would have been nice too. If Gallo was the target from the get go........ Bad signing.

    And if the FO doesn't know this, or is OK with this, then we have even greater problems yet.
  11. sweetmusicviola16
    In that type of scenerio. In the .160's. Sorry that doesn't cut it.
  12. sweetmusicviola16
    I know one thing based on his career, if we're trailing 5-3 with two runners on in the ninth, Joey better not be ever at the plate.
  13. sweetmusicviola16
    Courtesy of you last night. Thanks. .166 in high leverage situations. .156 in a close game. .179 in a tie game. This guy actually stinks. Rock bottom? When has he ever not been there?
  14. sweetmusicviola16
    OK. So we went from being a 68 win team to a 69 one.
  15. sweetmusicviola16
    Yeah it's a joke. And so is signing Joey Gallo. A 5 WAR player, who hits .199. And strikes out over 200 times a season. This is not going to turn this thing around. Makes it go deeper in a bad direction.
  16. sweetmusicviola16
    There is no rebound coming Gallo is awful. They need to spend some money so they can say "they tried". This is how they do it.
  17. sweetmusicviola16
    Joey Gallo, for about what Sano would have cost. Sano at least had some upside. Wow.
  18. sweetmusicviola16
    I could really care less what I "look like". Victim blaming? How about people start to take responsibility for their actions. Floyd losing his life was wrong. Chauvin committed an errounious act. But Floyd was drunk, high, passing bad cash and resisting arrest. He obviously hadn't learned. This is the guy who in 2009 held a gun in the abdomen of a preganant woman during a break in. I'm not holding this guy up as a martyr or a hero. If you don't like my opinion delete them then.
  19. sweetmusicviola16
    This. I'm not convinced that it was racially motivated at all. Police brutallity, yes for sure. My hunch is Chauvin would have done the same thing to anyone else at this particular moment. Which brings me to another point. Until people of color, whether they are black, brown, yellow, red or white learn not to abuse alcohol, drugs, tobacco, etc and learn not to break laws like pass funny money and create a public disturbance and then resist arrest their lives will continue to go nowhere fast.

    Where is the outcry over David Dorn? Blue Lives Matter. Rest in peace David. You will enjoy the rich reward you have earned. God bless and comfort his family.
  21. sweetmusicviola16
    Where is the outrage on this site over a black man killing a white police officer up here in Grand Forks ND a week ago? Where is the outrage over millions of babies being murdered in this country over the past almost 50 years? This should have stayed Twins Daily and kept the topics to baseball. Now you have division where it wasn't before. Good job.

    Kirby Puckett should have been on this team. Yes Buton is fast. What's that gotten him? A few crashes into the OF walls, and injured. Puckett was very fast, and played under control.
  24. sweetmusicviola16
    Koufax was great and that's a fact. So was Babe Ruth.
  25. sweetmusicviola16
    I was always a Guidry fan and he should have been in the HOF. Louisiana Lightning.
