    Dude reality check. When Harmon retired he was 5th all time on the homer list. I think you need to check the entirety of their careers.
  2. Linus
    Will try to use language that the mods won't delete ....but to compare Brian Dozier to Harmon Killebrew might be the most....inaccurate.... things I've read on this site.
  3. Linus
    Adding veterans to the bullpen seems like a Terry Ryan move.
  4. Linus
    I think most posters are vastly over rating Doziers value. Obviously we don't know what's being offered but I think keeping Dozier has very little upside for the Twins.
  5. Linus
    The Twins have done nothing. And if the plan really is to compete in 2020 then I'm out.
  6. Linus
    I would keep him. I think the Twins can play 500 ball next year which means they could hang around the 2nd wild card. If they aren't at that level then trade him at the deadline but I'm not punting on any baseball season.
  7. Linus
    I think most Twist fans are over valuing two years of Dozier. Especially because neither of those years will look like last year. If they can get DeLeon, Alvarez and Ruiz they should take it and run. Furthermore if Falvey doesn't figure out a way to trade Dozier the honeymoon is over.
  8. Linus
    This. Dozier is a nice player but people are vastly over estimating the value of two years of him is
  9. Linus
    This. Guys get filtered out at every level so it's important to have plenty in the pipeline. Of the 4 mentioned odds are that two end up being MLB regulars.
  10. Linus
    If we can get DeLeon and Alvarez and don't take it I will be upset.
  11. Linus
    All of this is spot on.
  12. Linus
    I think that depends on whether you believe Dozier has another couple monster years in him. Dozier on a good team last year would have driven in 125. I personally don't but you could easily argue otherwise.
  13. Linus
    No. He's going good to get 2/3rds of the at bats as is. Spend money elsewhere. Also the $24 million is for three years.
  14. Linus
    Didn't Puig clear waivers last summer? That gives a good idea of what his trade value is-nobody would take him with his contract meaning the Dodgers would have to eat some just to give him away.
  15. Linus
    I think he is proof that when to bring a guy to the big leagues isn't an easy decision. Half his control is gone and nobody really knows what he is. As far as a trade I pass. Shoulder problem and only 3 years control plus the mystery of how good a SS is he.

    Since we are going far afield here.... I think Cory Provus is a fantastic play by play man. I also love Scott Korzenowski on Sunday mornings.
  17. Linus
    I like your plan other than I would like May in the rotation.
  18. Linus
    I think they have to deal him now. He's more likely to hit 18 Homers than 28 next year. The Twins haven't had an opportunity like this in years.
  19. Linus
    If the first two are DeLeon and Alvarez then the the should take two lottery tickets and be done.

    Following my mother's edict of "if you can't say anything nice..." I will say Beradino does a hell of a job. He actually provides info I don't get on Twins Daily.
  21. Linus
    I've been saying all along that they need to target elite pitching and nothing else. We can patch holes in the lineup and you can always find third starters.
  22. Linus
    Dave You are playing this masterfully - no tells. I have a mental image of you chortling and rubbing your hands together with each new post.
  23. Linus
    I thought DeLeon was the top prospect so then I mean Alvarez and DeLeon. If this is offered they have to take it
  24. Linus
    I would take DeLeon and their next best pitching prospect. I would really try for Urias but I'm repeating myself on that one. We need to exclusively target pitching imo
  25. Linus
    I don't buy the premise that it's understandable they haven't done anything because they are getting settled. You can study the Dozier situation for an hour and know he has to go. Hopefully they are just holding out for a better deal.
