    Sure, but Brown is at least a potential superstar. (Plus, the Eagles got a 3rd too I think?) Hollywood is not. He's not even a legit number 1 IMO.
  2. TheLeviathan
    The Eagles got AJ Brown and a third for 18.....the Cardinals got Hollywood Brown for 23. How stupid must the Cards feel?

    If you see this draft as being basically a wash from about 10-50....the trade makes sense. They didn't want to overdraft a dude at 12, so they took the best they could. I can see why you don't like it. At the same time....we absolutely could get two really good starters out of this rather than 1.
  4. TheLeviathan
    The value isn't great but it reflects the draft.
  5. TheLeviathan
    Pushing down Wilson to us is going to make that KC offer a real possibility. Or someone like AZ desperate for Johnson if he's there. I didn't trust Stingley.
  6. TheLeviathan
    Wow...you sacrificed time for Paul Allen. Then endured his painful brand of obnoxiousness to bring these to us. Hats off to you sir. You're a hero.
  7. TheLeviathan
    Yes to both of these.
  8. TheLeviathan
    Hey...remember when you complained we traded Cruz for prospects? Good times.
  9. TheLeviathan
    I agree with you that the decision should be made on the basis of "Larnach needs to play nearly every day". I'm on the record of being in favor of riding things with Sano, but if the team thinks they're better with Larnach at DH and Kiriloff at 1B....so be it. I mean, at this point, Kepler should also be on watch.
  10. TheLeviathan
    Agreed. A lot of teams are looking to trade down, I don't think we'll have a ton of leverage. Then again....I think this draft might get super weird.
  11. TheLeviathan
    This. The defense will always hurt his value, but honestly....are some of you watching the same Sano that I am? He's spitting on those outside slider/breaking balls more often than ever, he's working counts, and he's stinging the **** out of the ball. That's a much better Sano than we've seen, he's just not having much luck. Giving up on him (and for what?) makes no sense in that context.
  12. TheLeviathan
    Same. Was just curious on thoughts because a lot of scouts have them basically tied. It's understated how badly this team needs linebackers.
  13. TheLeviathan
    Trading down and landing Lloyd is my top scenario. Curious....why do you like Lloyd over Dean?
  14. TheLeviathan
    Whoa. Settle down Brock.
  15. TheLeviathan
    Ha! That said....please trade down.
  16. TheLeviathan
    I have been assured through Twins Daily that no one likes Minnesota and no one signs here. I believe this was a quote from some guy named Karl Knudson who was actively cooking some hotdish. For shame that we were fooled so easily over a concept so obviously false from the jump.
  17. TheLeviathan
    @Mike Sixel he already broke his own forum record for absurdity.
  18. TheLeviathan
    Ditto, I take Hamilton. But I hope with Hamilton and Wilson there that we have an enticing trade possibility.
  19. TheLeviathan
    K.
  20. TheLeviathan
    Need more sample size, but so far the pitching has been surprisingly cromulent.
  21. TheLeviathan
    This is a profound misunderstanding of how this works. Almost impressive in just how many points you manage to have a completely misguided take. Well done. To make it short: you had agency in choosing your company and in leaving your company for any competitors they have. Your company does not have an anti-trust exemption, nor were you drafted out of high school and bound to them or no one else. Let's be just a wee bit rational?
  22. TheLeviathan
    This man is single-handedly saving baseball from itself. I love finally seeing a player/coach say what I've been saying for years: There is nothing more disrespectful than looking at your opponent and saying "meh, you guys suck so much we have this won. We'll stop doing stuff". You're professionals. 7 run lead? 6 run lead in the 8th? Screw it. Swing for the fences. Steal that base.
  23. TheLeviathan
    All you can ask players to do is take the right approach, improve the approach if it isn't working, and hope the results reward the process. No one, not with advanced stats, eye test, or anything else in the history of baseball is going to bad mouth a player who is stinging the ball all over and just having bad luck. The advanced stats aren't perfect, they just try to identify players that are doing things right, even if the results haven't shown it yet. Or, vice versa, guys who have results that look unsustainable. Reality often vindicates those conclusions over time. Some of the posts in this thread to the contrary....woof. If you don't understand it, just ignore it and steer clear of it. Opening your mouth to admit just how poorly you understand it is a bad look.
  24. TheLeviathan
    Nice win, Buxton can't keep doing it by himself but hopefully Kep, Correa, Sano, and the rest of the crew start heating up.
  25. TheLeviathan
    My god....that is one of the worst Minnesota playoff losses ever. And I know that's a high bar.
