  1. It's an interesting argument, but couldn't the lack of championship parity also be due to the nature of the game of baseball vs. the other major sports? Even the best baseball teams lose (and are expected to lose) 35-40% of the time. It's part of the reason for the Moneyball-style "get to the playoffs and see what happens" goal.
  2. We'd probably have to trade Herschel Walker to get Cole.
  3. Well with that salary it'd have to be a salary dump, right? I'm thinking we start with Duensing and see what happens.
  4. I could assume that was a tongue-in-cheek way of saying "don't make a deal for Boyd," but that would preclude me from suggesting that we also include Duensing, so...
  5. Hmmm, you drive a hard bargain, but sure. Let's do that trade.
  6. The taxes are ridiculous and there's no media market to speak of? Well hey, at least the weather sucks.
  7. Doubt. If it's true, I hope they get it done.
  8. I was a little surprised by this, but both the Arraez for Bryant and the Arraez for Darvish swaps don't overly favor the Twins using this tool: https://www.baseballtradevalues.com/trade-simulator/ I may have underestimated Arraez's value, although I think if you're going to sell him, this would be the time to do it. Let pitchers adjust and defenses learn to shift him when he's on another team. Also, the easiest replacement for 2B that nobody seems to be talking about is Polanco. Might it not be better to slide Polanco over and look for a stopgap SS?
  9. $136,292,374.06. Price is Right rules.
  10. If some other team values Gibson that highly, then good for Gibson. As for Twins, it ought to be a moot point. The max I'd offer Gibson would be zero; it's time to move on.
  11. I was at the Jim Thome walkoff game. Amazing stuff. That'd be my best in-person moment for sure.
  12. Look for me in the nosebleeds tonight. I'll be the guy in the Twins jersey getting beer dumped on him.
  13. Player-coach! Seriously though, these sound like great changes. I would love to see that clubhouse in person, though probably not with an underwear-clad Sano across from me.
  14. ¡Más bombas de las que puedes sacudir un palo!
  15. Man, I missed Alcalá pitch again! Got called away for something at work and he turns in an eight pitch inning.
  16. 8 pitches, 2 Ks. Damn Romero, where was this before?
  17. This entire lineup has been on base now. (LaMarre has a walk, but not a hit.) God, but Detroit is dismal.
  18. The way the Yankees retire numbers, they'll have to start soon.
