  1. It does feel like a coded message tbh at is meant to be heard by a team or teams they are talking with. my guess, multiple moves do happen between now and March 1
  2. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2024/01/astros-josh-hader-agree-to-five-year-contract.html
  3. I've never seen the word transmogrify before this article. I absolutely learned something today. Thank you. Ober, when healthy, is very good. This does give hope for the upcoming season :)
  4. My hope/expectation is for him to get through the 2024 season healthy. His stuff does look electric. Thanks!
  5. I have been called that before. One time in high school I had a friend ask me what ice cream cones are made out of, and I didn't know off the top of my head, so I said "cone material." It wasn't my greatest moment, and Captain Obvious made sense there too :)
  6. I mean, if his 2021 and 2022 seasons weren't just complete disasters, for whatever reason, he would have probably signed a big deal by now this offseason right?
  7. Agreed, I do hope the Twins pivot to a move like this if the trade market isn't where they can find a move. They have to go for it in this window somehow. The payroll, for many reasons, doesn't matter as much. But not adding talent to go for it right now in some form or fashion is not acceptable.
  8. He is only 28, which is good. And really, if he hadn't had those terrible seasons before last year, he would be getting a LOT more money. I'm not saying I think the Twins can get him. But I can absolutely understand the reasoning for spending free agent money on him compared to someone like Snell (for example.) I LOVE Snell, but that walk rate is hard to ignore.
  9. They do have 38 players on the 40 man, and that's before potentially trading any of their veterans that have been rumored. There will be more additions, guaranteed. I just don't what kind of additions :)
  10. If they were to get Bellinger, I'd have to imagine the relationship with Boras was helped by a number of things, including the Correa deal and even keeping Gallo on the roster as long as they did. He is an obvious positional fit, and I do agree that spending payroll money on position players (while trading for pitching) makes sense. I'm not certain it will happen, but put me in the camp that this would be a fantastic move. Even if he doesn't do what he did last season again, he would still be a great addition to our lineup.
  11. It’s hard to get worked up now when the offseason is nowhere close to over though right?
  12. My order of preference in terms of the deals would be... 1) Jeremy's deal 2) Jamie's deal 3) Theo's deal Luzardo and Meyer coming back would be electric. I'm not sure Seattle would trade Gilbert, and I'm not really too enamored with Theo's deal and how that would help in the 2024 season. Fun talker!
  13. Just off and on with kids and work and stuff. Hopefully they make a move asap :)
  14. I certainly hope not. :) I guess I would leave him in the role he is, but if this IS an option, he certainly has the arm talent to be good as a starter too right?
  15. I prefer to keep Vazquez. This move doesn't move the needle for me.
  16. I'm sorry, I can't put Severino above Woods Richardson. I just can't do it. I'd probably also, easily, have Danny De Andrade and Connor Prielipp (if his shoulder is healthy) and Pierson Ohl well above Severino too. And now that I think of it, possibly another 5 or 10 guys. Severino at 15 is probably 10 spots too high for him in my opinion.
  17. What is the difference in draft allotment money going from 71 to 38?
  18. Agreed. It would be nice to know what is going on, if something is going on still
  19. I read it as, Kirilloff’s pretty major surgery a few offseasons ago (the same one that Kirk Gibson had) COULD be an issue at some point again at any point in his career. That said, for right now today, I haven’t read anything to suggest it is an issue right now. If it is an issue right now, then getting a different full time 1b, or at least someone to platoon with Miranda, makes a world of sense. Maybe that’s Julien? Maybe that’s someone else. But IF Kirilloff is feeling ok, then he should perform, right?
  20. We will see if all of these guys are still on the roster in a month. But you are right, they will have a strong lineup.
