    The NCAA can be dunked on for my lifetime, my childrens' lifetimes, and my unborn grandchildrens' lifetimes and it still won't be even. One of our society's greatest, low-key evil operations of the last 75 years.

    We're struggling with the word "elite" here.....

    I have the same issue sometimes. Dealership wants 70k and they just refuse to take my spare change for their vehicles. Buncha jerks.

    If the on-field product was as good as the booth we'd have actual reason to be excited. Molitor is going to be really good at this.

    Well let me spell it out for you....if they lost 350M in 4 years on merely baseball that would be an impressive feat. One they can easily prove to the public if they'd like to. (And which would defy the limits you claim baseball puts on teams) Except...we know MLB doesn't actually enforce those limits. And the odds of losing that much money per year on baseball alone is basically impossible. Which leaves any rational person to a simple conclusion: they lost money on their other ventures, despite a taxpayer gift to their baseball operation, AND they want to blame fans for lowering their revenue on baseball. They're silver spooned dopes. The only real mystery is why you feel the need to fall on the sword for them.

    We'll see if Keaschall can be as great in year two with the league adjusting to him. I am not going to hang my hat on how great Bell and Cartini are going to be. They are banking on a ton of growth from young players. I hope that happens, but I wouldn't bank on it. And even if it happens...doesn't change the defense.

    This is a bad defensive team who isn't an elite strikeout team. It's also virtually the same offense that finished 17th in OPS and that was with Buxton playing out of his mind and healthy all year. And with two guys who helped raise that OPS who aren't here anymore (Bader and Castro).

    Best case scenario? The regular 9 are so bad that any futility by the bullpen is largely meaningless.

    Prank calling a SP agent is worth 5 WAR minimum.

    Is there a TD badge for "worst math ever"? I've got a post I'd like to nominate.....

    If you gave up on Game of Thrones because the last season was trash and House of the Dragon was Mega Trash....fear not: Knight of the Seven Kingdoms kicks some serious butt. Check it out.

    They were especially unfunny this year, agreed.

    I seriously don't understand how you so badly mistyped "Drive a dump truck full of cash to his house and offer to put him in the Wilf will"

    I'm not sure you should count on a running back that can catch the ball either. Given KOC's preferred passing game, we pretty much have no choice but to have a RB that can pass protect rather than be a weapon out of the backfield in the way you frame here. I'm not a huge fan of Price. He's fast, I like him as a change of pace guy. If you could tell me we get him in the 3rd I might be more interested but he was basically taken off the field on passing downs last year. He had 3 fumbles in 113 carries. I like that there is less tread on the tires as being the 2nd guy there, but I don't see enough to take him in the 2nd. I think the guy that fits us best is probably Trey Holly. Problem is character concerns there. It's honestly just not a good year to go RB hunting in the draft IMO. Last year....that was the year.

    I mean....I was happy to move on from Falvey. However...if we're moving on because our current Russian Nesting Doll of Pohlads is on "Tom" and Tom looks at the 2025 Twins, with even less payroll, after a major sell-off, and sees a roster set to transform into a 2026 "contender".....then I'm not sure I can throw fault at the feet of Falvey for not being some kind of wizard to pull that off.
  19. TheLeviathan
    I don't even understand what you're arguing....Tom believes that in early February they're going to make blockbuster deals to make the team better immediately while dealing their best players? Is that what you think Falvey was standing in the way of? This non-existent trade idea?
  20. TheLeviathan
    I don't know how the Mahle/Lopez deals aren't in the "worst" category. I'd feel alot better about this team with Spencer Steer at 1B and Cano in the bullpen.

    Most of that comes from the article above. It is worth the read. We elevated him from spreadsheets to running a draft, the jump was too much and the results have born that out. It probably explains why FA was better for him, you can run that as a numbers game. The draft is about truly understanding football. It doesn't seem like KAM does. (I mean, coaches had decided Cine was a bust nearly by the end of camp. That pick was THAT bad) What I wish we could find out is who was on what side of the QB decision this summer. KAM feels like he's being thrown under the bus (as the PD guys said) when this was a failed group decision.
  23. TheLeviathan
    I like Smith. The Dolphins gave consistently been a good running team with inventive play calls. Carter? Didn't love him coming on board at all in the first place much less a promotion.

    People keep citing the bullpen....that isn't even my top concern. How do you expect to be competitive with a lineup that isn't even above average offensively while also being below average defensively as a group? Our regular 9 is just not good enough. If we're going to be "competitive"...why on earth is Josh Bell and Victor Caratini the best we could muster?
