  1. You are a guest in someone else's house. Host your own webs site if you want to say whatever you want. sure thing robbie
  2. What do those two things have anything to do with the topic at hand? Yes, Mike Trout would be in the majors by now with the Twins (assuming he produced similarly in the minors-plus no injuries), it's really not that difficult of a concept. The Twins front office isn't the bumbling bunch of idiots that geniuses like Thrylos and others on this board try to make them out to be. yes they are.... plain and simple
  3. Well then you'd be wrong. Sure I am sure you are , the twins wouldnt keep a kid in the minors just so he didnt hit free agency till he was already in or past his prime ...
  4. When you're given time away, it is a wise idea to not return from said time away bad mouthing those who gave you the time away. The first amendment has nothing to do with a public internet forum. Those running the forum have every right to ban, suspend, etc. any user that violates the terms of service. Perhaps a refresher on those terms would be best before spouting off against those who do such a great job running this site. and what did they have for breakfest?
  5. wow another english police , this time from north of the border ,thats cool , here is what you do .. when you see johnnydakota , ignore it ok hope you have a nice thanksgiving
  6. amen look at ticket sales after fielder and albert were signed?
  7. so 18 years isint enough time? the kids born after our last worldseries victory are now bar hopping ....what have you done for us terry? nothin ...hope you choke on your payroll cutting bonus
  8. curly deamed izturis 3 year 10.5 million dollar contract to high for the twins to concider , so im guessing if you want more then 3 million a year the twins arent interested ...
  9. in fact the ownership group from baaaston , loria and the commish PUD selig were all charged with the rico act in 2002 but once again the good ole boy network slipped off thr hook , now pud is looking imnto the trade?? hahaha what a joke selig is just sticking his hand out for a little taste from loria , if you look at the contracts that all 3 signed they are backloaded , as loria intended to trade them all any way ..time for pud selig loria and the wilpons to be removed from baseball to keep the games intergraty
  10. 1 reason they wont is that david st pete and terry ryan would have to give up there bonuses for slashing payroll...how much did they pocket after cutting 18.4 million last year?
  11. is zumya ever going to pick up a baseball?
  12. why not santana , if we can get him for opium (other peoples money) if the mets were willing to pick up 67-70% of his contract why not trade for johan and his 2 time sore arm? then bring back loco liriano , with santan and cuellar here to help frankie , he might finally put together another quality season...yes i know we are tired of him , but does any one really expect curly to sign any one better? personally the most we can hope for is the KEVINS slowey and correia, and maybe a signing of moyer or pavano .... as st pete and ryan do not want to lose there bonuses for slashing payroll, i wonder how much they pocketed for dropping payroll 18.4 million last year?
  13. back after my 2nd suspention for bad mouthing the complete ineptness of twins management ,even if its by unpoplular demand what happened to the 1st amendment ? freedom of speech, what happened to independent of the twins llc? ok now that im done snivelling , here are my cheap additions to the twins rotation , villanueva and trading fro Dárnaud and j.a. happ
  14. how much for stanton?
  15. amen , he was busy trying to lowball scott baker ,this just shows another reason for curly lyan to be fired , total failure to fix anything except lining the owners pockets
  16. Theo Epstein is very likely smarter than anyone we have in our upper management...I have little doubt he'll turn that mess around He did sign Lackey and Crawford .... and Daisuke Matsuzaka. Julio Lugo and Renteria. look , your each complaining he signed several players...who did the twins sign....if you dont swing you dont hit a home run ....its better to have tried and lost then just sit on your thumbs hoping to recieve a bonus for reducing payroll...
  17. Theo Epstein is very likely smarter than anyone we have in our upper management...I have little doubt he'll turn that mess around we can only dream of a front office as good as theo...instead we sit with the 3 stooges....
  18. Evidently the Cubs didn't check with thrylos98's source. I heard talks broke down when Baker got wind of thrylos leaking inside information. Seriously though, I'm bummed to hear that Baker left and even more bummed to hear that this is the going rate for pitching. I don't think this is going to be the conventional thing we'll see. One has to think the Cubs overpaid quite a bit to pry him away from the Twins, seeing as how much he liked it here. I really don't mind losing him. He's a huge question mark after TJ and the Twins are not in a position to gamble rotation wise. i read this as scott baker believes he has a better chance in 2013 to go to the playoffs with the cubs then with the twins, you see a patteren? nathan cuddy,kubel,thome,baker....the home town heros are bailing on this sinking ship.....
  19. terry(my lipps are moving)lyans? jaime moyer and kevin correia and then trades for kevin slowey ...see we can compete on the cheap , hey jippy do i get another bonus for reducing payroll?
  20. face it we are the poor american leaque version of the cubs , hey nice job terry lyan
  21. gee i remember 91-93,nathan was a quality starter, but now a dam fine closer, still here is a young left handed hitting catcher... the only reason he was traded was to make room for joe...so after 18 years terry( im not )lyan , has made what a hand full of trades?and most we have been bent over on ....time for the 3 stooges to go
  22. johnnydakota ... maybe football is your sport. ok so in 18 years he makes 1 lucky trade and is still living on that ? wow what has he done for us lately?
  23. just a thought , but if the mets are looking to dump salary , why not trade hermsen and boyd for santana and 15 million?
  24. Your best bet is to draft well, or trade for a top pitching prospect, then lock him up while he is still under team control. (see: Kershaw, Verlander, Cain, Felix, etc etc) It seems like the teams overpaying out the ass for starting pitching on the market tend to get burned more then they get rewarded. baker,blackburn , and slowey?
