    Trade deadline day is easily my least favorite day of the year. It's always crappy teams giving away their stars to the same 5 or 6 teams (and "surprise" team) each year. Look how easy it is for the Dodgers and Yankees to get whoever they want, yet 95% of the other teams refuse to do it. We always take about the king's ransom we can get for our players but it never plays out like that. It's always just middling garbage who, if we're lucky, might be a decent player for a month or two.

    Rooker reminds me of Brian Buchanan and I assume he'll have a similar career where he hangs on for a few years, never getting consistent at bats, hits lefties decently, struggles vs righties and is an afterthought in five years. Hopefully I'm wrong and he is Nelson Cruz.

    I'm intrigued by this guy at least. Sabathia's breakdown "I like his swag " convinced me.

    I liked the Ruben Sierra, Juan Castro, etc levels of achievement.

    Until the team gets serious about fielding a pitching staff with legitimate major leaguers what's the point? Berrios, Maeda, Duffey, Rogers, and Alcala are the only guys on this pitching staff that should be given a chance next year.

    Jordy Mercer, come on down!

    It would not surprise me to see San Diego trade Tatis within a couple years like most other "small market" teams do soon after signing a star player, whether it be Arenado, Stanton, or Knoblauch.

    Not concerned about losing Wade but I am concerned about acquiring Anderson. I'm not going to take any stock into 15 innings of 2020 but he looks like he walks too many and gives up two many home runs. They traded for him to pitch him and a 1.53 career WHIP does not excite me.

    Rosario is the type of personality that will just destroy the Twins every time he faces them. The new Gogo.

    At least he makes contact and can field. Fun fact: I went to a Braves-Yankees game in New Yankee Stadium in 2012 or 13 and we were wearing baseball jerseys and hats on the subway when a young guy asked if we were at the game. We said yes and he said he was teammates with Simmons in college and proceeded to flip through this facebook page and show us pictures of them together.

    Wish we hadn't traded for Maeda. A Hansel and Graterol bullpen that got eaten by the rest of the AL would have been fun.
  12. notoriousgod71
    Especially since they spent two years telling us he was basically Rod Carew. I have no interest in Semien. Thus far, he appears to be like every other Twins where his career year was joke of a 2019 season where pitching was dreadful.
  13. notoriousgod71
    I look forward to watching him in St. Paul.
  14. notoriousgod71
    I would rather have Polanco and Arraez than Semien and Polanco. Semien would have fit in well with the 2019 Twins, a career year when balls are flying all over and out of stadiums.

    Baseball used to be my favorite sport.

    Since I expect serious regression for both of them, hopefully these additions can fool people for a June through September once the front office has given up on the first two.
  17. notoriousgod71
    Cave would never have caught that so Graterol would have been throwing his glove for a different reason.
  18. notoriousgod71
    Kubel vs Rivera is exactly what I thought off when I heard Kiriloff was on the roster. Even though, to be fair, Kubel has a fair number of ABs in September.
  19. notoriousgod71
    I still would have done Buxton and Lewis for Syndergaard last year, even knowing now that Thor would miss all of 2020.
  20. notoriousgod71
    FIFY
  21. notoriousgod71
    Honestly, who could the Twins have added that would have made sense? 7 of 9 position players are underperforming but nobody traded today would have supplanted any of our starters. No starting pitcher is going to be allowed to pitch enough to make any bit of difference and you can add a million relief pitchers but half of them are going to be worthless on any given night anyway. They need to either sink or swim with this roster and philosophy Falvine have assembled.

    Bauer is my favorite player in baseball. Not the best, but my favorite.

    https://sports.yahoo.com/report-rob-manfred-warns-that-mlb-could-shut-down-by-monday-if-it-cant-contain-coronavirus-210743171.html Well, we better take the next three against Cleveland to clinch our division championship!

    Why do we even care? Unless people are specifically not getting jobs because of their skin color I don't see a problem. Maybe blacks just prefer playing basketball or football? Maybe Hispanics prefer playing baseball and boxing? Maybe whites prefer baseball and hockey? It fits neatly into stereotypes but maybe that's just the way it is. Not everything appeals to every single person or group of people.
  25. notoriousgod71
    Maybe this is his silent protest for not getting called up in September a couple years ago.
