    Oh well, there's plenty of other mediocre lefties in the sea. (Well not really)

    I hope they take the morality of Drones seriously, because as many have been pointing out, that Drone technology isn't going to be far-fetched for other nations. We can set a standard here; let's hope it's not the wrong one. In other news 67% of Republicans believe Video Games are bigger threat than guns. Oi vey.

    ****, that rabbit be trippin'

    He's at a 7 for power potential. Evidently they think his bat would play at 5 for power if he was currently in teh bigs.
  5. PseudoSABR
    He's 29.

    Supposedly is the key word. If the Twins offer enough money players will sign (and have signed) here.

    I'm glad a team like the M's tied him up. I always thought I'd see him in pinstripes.

    What is the upper limit for a Morneau extension that we would be willing to live with? LaRouche's recent deal provides some context (LaRoche obtains $10MM in 2013, $12MM in 2014 and a $2MM buyout for a 2015 mutual option).

    I miss Brain Dinkleman.
  10. PseudoSABR
    Thank you for your attention in this matter.
  11. PseudoSABR
    Fascists!
  12. PseudoSABR
    Right. I wonder what happened with him.
  13. PseudoSABR
    It didn't make any more sense when he posted in the Keith Law minor league thread either. I'd think the guy was a bot, but sometimes I think he actually posts his opinions...
  14. PseudoSABR
    But that's not how I remembered it, Fro.

    I think that may have been true at one time; but really are you exploiting a market inefficiency when you're spending first round picks on it? It's not like Gibson, Wimmers, Baker, Slowey were drafted in the tenth round or were trade throw-ins. Again, when you collect a decades worth of power arms in one sentence, I think that says something about an organization's preference. I'm surprised this is even a debatable issue.

    All quoted text is italicized. Is that necessary? Seems redundant, given how quotes are already set apart. It's difficult to add emphasis to a quote with resorting to bold or caps, which I'm sure annoys everyone.
  17. PseudoSABR
    I'm not sure that's true. And I hope that the Twins have learned from drafting Baker, Slowey, Blackburn, Wimmers, and GIbson, that command guys get hurt an awful lot too. No one's arguing with the many different avenues for pitchers to be successful or earn strikeouts. Rather, it's been clear, at least to me, that the Twins have shied away from 'power' arms for a decade or more with their high draft picks and trade targets (exceptions noted); this past year of young pitching acquisitions seems like a new approach to me. I could be wrong, but I hope not.

    A month starting when? The beginning of the season? Or from now?

    Joe Mauer Swings Away Interesting article looking at Mauer's ability to take pitches (or inability to swing the damn bat) in favorable hitters counts.
  20. PseudoSABR
    It's the draft combined with the acquisition of May/Meyers that certainly seems to emphasize high-ceiling high-velocity arms than in years past. Of course the Twins haven't exactly shied away from power arms, but they haven't consistently emphasized it either, that's what's changed.
  21. PseudoSABR
    Unlike Seth, it's pretty clear to me that there's been a shift in how the Twins acquire young arms from last years draft to May and Meyers.
  22. PseudoSABR
    But this risk comes with not only the price of the contract, but also that second round pick, which is worth more than straight cash. Things have to go perfectly for the team to get something better than a high* second round pick, imo. *the supplemental round is smaller than years past, so second round picks might have more value than we are used to
  23. PseudoSABR
    I agree. I wonder if Arcia isn't punished because of his pedigree, and his relative unknownness before surging through the Twins system. I just don't see what there is NOT to like about Arcia, beyond some questions about his defense and health.
  24. PseudoSABR
    Easy choice. Ulger.
  25. PseudoSABR
    Honestly, this is an interesting collection of quasi prospects.
