  1. Ya the future will look a lot brighter when I win the lotto!
  2. Jerry Crasnick of ESPN.com hears that the Rockies' asking price for Dexter Fowler is "sky high" and the outfielder is unlikely to be traded. Crasnick also notes that potentially interested teams are concerned about Fowler's career splits, as he boasts an .882 OPS at Coors Field in his career but a .698 mark on the road. It's still early in the offseason, so things could change once more center field dominoes fall, but it appears that Fowler will probably stay put.

  3. Bark's L thanks for your well wishes. Nothin would be better than to see the Twins win. Twins winning is happiness.
  4. Meyers & Hicks are prospects and nothin more, who is to say he can replace Span, could easily be someone else. The same goes for Meyers. The Twins could play like the Orioles next season why the rush to trade Span now for a prospect when we can do it when we are 10 games out and in last place. The fans need a team this year too, not in 4 or 5 years. I won't even be around to see it by then.
  5. So we wait 2 more years for hicks while we could be playin span by that time buxton and a few more will be ready and Myers hasn't pitched yet.
  6. I understand that we don't need Span. Doesn't Span have alot more value than Meyer? Doesn't Span have more value than Benson, Hicks, ect,? Why the rush to trade him? Would not Benson or Hicks for Meyer be better? Could we make the same or better deal next fall?
  7. Why do they have to free up money for? They just got a new ball park for nothing!
  8. It's not what the Twins loss, but waht did they gain in the next 4 years? Nothing!
  9. Gardy is right, mi speed wins, but Chone has got to prove it first.
  10. I would go to a game to see Liriano K 15 or 20 batters but Pavano no way.
  11. Ya why? At best a short-term fix. We need some long-term help!
  12. Ya why? At best a short-term fix. We need some long-term help!
  13. You can;t buy everything and you can't buy a ss. Play the one you got you got plenty now to choose from.
  14. If we don't sign a true ace now we will lose 90 games for the next 2 years and maybe more, we can't not afford that and where would you find a younger and better one that now?
  15. My top 3 picks for the Twins are Grienke, Liriano, and Myers. I would be happy with that. Yes Haren, Marcum,Dempster,Jackson, and Sanchez are ok also, but they are injury phrone and pricey too. Look for a trade to happen to but after most of the FA sign.
  16. Rodney you are so right! we need a ace for the long-term, so do it now, why put if off?
  17. Why trade pitching when you can sign a free agent? Twins will just have to wait on Span.
  18. No, pretty bad, who would take them?
  19. Angels claimed INF Thomas Field off waivers from the Twins. The Twins had just claimed Field off waivers from the Rockies earlier this month. The 25-year-old has been mostly been at Triple-A the last couple years, where he batted .246/.315/.400 with eight homers this past season. He could compete for a bench job in spring trianing.
  20. Francisco Liriano was impressive again in Wednesday’s loss to the Orioles, allowing two runs on four hits and a pair of walks while striking out 10 over six innings. It’s the second straight game that Liriano has punched out 10 or more hitters, as he set down a season-high 15 against the A’s over the weekend. He’s been nothing short of spectacular since returning to the Twins' rotation on May 30, going 3-4 with a 2.84 ERA and 77/28 K/BB ratio over 63 1/3 innings. It’s looking increasingly likely that Liriano will be moved before the trade deadline. And he just keeps helping his value. Jul 18 - 11:01 PM I say once you master that talent you own it!
  21. FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal reports that B.J Upton's deal with the Braves is for five years and $75.25 million. The contract will be made official once Upton passes a physical, and the 28-year-old outfielder will be introduced at a press conference on Thursday afternoon at Turner Field. Upton also drew serious interest this offseason from the Phillies, Nationals, Giants and Rangers, but the Braves' final offer beat them all. It should be a good fit, and Upton should remain a top fantasy outfielder. Related: Braves Source: Ken Rosenthal on Twitter
  22. Why trade pitching when you can sign a free agent.
  23. La Velle E. Neal III of the Minneapolis Star-Tribune reports that the Twins have had conversations with Francisco Liriano's representatives and the two sides are expected to meet at the winter meetings. The Twins' search for starting pitching is bringing them back to a familiar face. While general manager Terry Ryan wouldn't confirm his interest in the left-hander, he didn't deny it, either. "I haven't spoken on the record about anyone we are interested in. Everyone knows we are looking for starting pitching," Ryan said. In addition to Liriano, the Twins have also been connected to Brett Myers and Joe Saunders. Related: Twins Source: Minneapolis Star-Tribune
  24. I have played fantasy baseball since 1973 and football since 1982 sometimes in 10 different leagues. Ryan should have made the Marlin, Jays trade but maybe he couldn't, his time will come soon.
