    Just what we needed. Another Lopez to tank. Too bad these guys that can’t produce star pitchers can’t trade for them either. Another #3 for a batting champ. SMH.

    Ober goes from 16 to 17? That's odd.

    This article totally distresses me.

    Oh, I am sure that is the plan, alright. Definitely the $200 million+ plan. Absolutely.... the plan. Like I said..... very optimistic.

    It would be nice to have a DH that actually hits..... instead of a Sanchez or a Sano or a Gallo or a . After all, it is Designated Hitter, not Designated Strikeouter.

    Folks are being very optimistic about how long Correa will be able to or be the best option at short. 2022 already started the decline, perhaps, if 2021 was considered his peak.........

    “a ragtag combo of Nick Gordon and Josh Winder” Nick Gordon says thanks for the love.

    Even more kudo's for catching it! For all the mice and men!

    Twins and other teams can be soooooo cheap about an extra million, or half million, or couple hundred thousand to the controllable players, even when they deserve a lot more.... just because they can. I mean, look what they will pay Pagan!!! Just pay Arraez his little bit more that he wants, already. It's not like they have to pony up 30 million or so......

    Just curious.... did you expect him to have worse than the worst season of his career?
  11. h2oface
    If the players stay on the field and play, then we improve just because of that. It wouldn't be hard to improve the performance of Mahle and Paddack (and Maeda) from nothing to something. Can Pagan get worse? Three years running as one of the worst relievers in MLB says yes. "Tell me about the rabbits stuff again, George......" And don't forget the long term core contract - Randy Dobnak will finally be ready again, right?. I don't see a big improvement. The FO is going on hope and potential, and hoping for health. If Buxton stays on the field, Kepler isn't traded and benefits from the no shift rules, Correa actually plays well all year..... it could be great. Gallo for Kepler? I don't see it. Gallo has replaced Sano at the plate. Not too exciting

    Since when are offers with contingencies not real offers? Most people buy houses with real offers that have at least one contingency - the financing contingency. And the majority also have a home inspection, and then find items that get negotiated before closing. If they don't get financing, or find something that can't get worked out in the home inspection, and the agreed upon contingencies can't be met, it was still a REAL offer. So were the Giants and Mets offers. Legal and binding, if all contingencies had been met.

    10 years overdue. The challenge option is just cowardly. Use the best option, and it is not humans guessing, and catchers moving their glove.

    Great spin, @Cody Pirkl.

    Past MO is that all pitchers, especially our best pitchers, have to be traded with 1 1/2 years to 1/2 year left on their contract. This means all of our pitchers pretty much. Yet, they trade the ones we have homegrown, and trade for pitchers in the same boat. Correct me if I am wrong.......
  16. h2oface
    All good info. Thank you. Certainly an assumption to attach defending patriarchy to stating facts about acquittal and its proper use. Your prerogative. You certainly don’t know me. But it appears we are in agreement that the Twins will be passing on Bauer.
  17. h2oface
    Third choice? Of course he wanted to be here all along.
  18. h2oface
    Bauer becomes a thread were name calling and suppositions are allowed outside of commenting policy, it seems, and brings out hate. Opinions laced with disparaging name calling, especially when directed at the subject. Hard to separate the two. No way can the Twins go down that road, even with Correa, complete with his scandal history and baggage, as a long term clubhouse leader. I don’t see that any team can.
  19. h2oface
    But, after being a 3rd baseman for around 2 weeks, does he identify as a Shortstop again now?
  20. h2oface
    Awesome clarification!
  21. h2oface
    That was funny! It was funny when Torii Hunter threw the ball back at the pitcher that had just hit him with it, too!
  22. h2oface
    Well, not acquitted. To be acquitted, one has to be charged and brought to trial. Bauer was never charged, at all, by any state or federal prosecutors, as all investigations resulted in insufficient evidence to even charge him with a crime of any kind. The only hearing was for a restraining order by a female plaintiff, which was denied by a female judge as unnecessary after extensive evidence was presented.
  23. h2oface
    It takes an unpunished, immunity granted, self admitted, well known - hated by most fans around baseball except Astros and Twins fans - cheater, to control a player with a reputation of being a clubhouse “misbehaver”? Interesting juxtaposition.
  24. h2oface
    I wonder if Correa has a copy all the doctors' reports and tests that have been done. Seems they should all be competent reports. Does he own them? Certainly he gets a copy, regardless. Do the Twins need to do more tests? or just to interpret what has just been done, perhaps some of the tests twice already.?.? And we already have plans to play Miranda at third. I hope Correa wouldn't be too disappointed about playing short instead of 3rd, as he has been identifying as a 3rd baseman for at least two weeks, and the emotional roller coaster could be devastating.
  25. h2oface
    Not even that much I believe. I think it is 50 games unpaid.... so that would even be prorated, and the cost is only about $500K
