  1. I think we all better hope that the Nats fall off and hard. I really want Scherzer
  2. If Castro gets selected and Sauce is still hitting with an OPS in the 1.000+ range you think Castro will see if Garver wants to tradesies?
  3. I’d like to see moves made before July 1st adding to what other posters have said. There’s enough teams that know they’re out of it early to acquire good arms without too much headache.
  4. Take Giles, Hand and Green and print those WS tickets lol. Don’t care too much about trading within the division. Or if you do then get Smith instead of Hand. I don’t see Detroit being relevant for a while even with some of our good prospects.
  5. Doesn’t make sense to me to not give him 3 years if you’re already offering him two. I mean sure that one extra year could be an albatross but again, you’re already offering two... and you’re playing for October. This season. 2019. I’m not blaming the FO for this one though.
  6. I don’t think you can equate signing Perez, Schoop, or Cruz in the off season to having a double digit lead in the division in early June, being very near an expected lock for the postseason and signing someone you need to improve by far the weakest aspect of your team. It’s OK if the FO (who I respect and have high levels of faith in) saw that Kimbrel was not going to cut it... but it is not OK to me if they liked him and couldn’t throw enough at him. Not in this season. And yeah it’s not my money. I’m just a fan.
  7. And also how do we know the twins had less money to offer? I kept hearing from all these sources who popped out of the woodwork that Jim was “open to increasing payroll”. If they know that do they know by how much? A million? 5 million? 20? When people use that line of nebulous language in defense of an ownership who had shown no reason hit anyone to think they’re going to deviate from old habits it just makes me wonder how many people actually believe that zero accountability mantra?
  8. If this season is squandered like the 00s teams they’re going to need a lot more of those 5$ ticket nights
  9. I’m not looking forward to the excuses if we decide trades are too costly and our internal options come from the minors only to get steamrolled by elite hitting in the playoffs. I’m not going to take schadenfreude joy in Kuechel or Kimbrel not performing well either if the Twins get Gardenhired in the playoffs again. Improve your team with the BPA. Unproven prospects and minor leaguers < proven ML ready relief. Maybe the window is open for a while, maybe not, but you have to capitalize on a season like this or you have no business running a sports franchise.
