  1. Kind of like a Nick Punto type player. If used well (and hopefully not every day), he can be valuable.
  2. Interesting that none of the Twins greats show up here. What was Johan's best April?
  3. probably would have went with SWR. 0 earned runs with a 0.65 whip in 21+ innings. Hard to beat that.
  4. I'm pretty sure most of us that wanted to bolster the rotation, we were thinking about adding high-end talent (think Montas, Manaea, etc), not mid-rotation types. Especially not by subtracting from areas of weakness. This trade makes very little sense, once you take into account other big moves the Twins made this year (but is consistent with Bundy/Archer/Smith pickups)
  5. I think we have different standards here. I thought the win-now moves that the FO pursued this year (signing Correa and trading for Gray) would be consistent with trying to build a championship contending team. Subtracting from an average (at best) bullpen doesn't cut it for me, especially when the move doesn't necessarily make the rotation better.
  6. Horrible move. 1. Who gets bumped from the rotation? I think Ryan and Ober have earned the opportunity to at least start in the rotation. 2. Losing the best reliever in an already weak bullpen, how does this help us this year (potentially the only year with Correa)?
  7. These are exactly the high variance signings the FO needs though. If you get the upside version, great! If not, move on to Winder or any of the great AAA pitching prospects who happen to be on fire at the time.
  8. I think the only IFs that the Twins are relying too heavily are on Bundy and Archer. In other areas, things happen but they tend to average out, and any team has that level of uncertainty.
  9. The Yankees are clearly improved from this deal. The Twins? Definitely worse off.
  10. So who's in the top 5? Mauer, Buxton, and Sano, for sure. I think Royce Lewis and AK were ranked pretty high at some point, and AK did have that monster season a few years ago.
  11. That is a hypothetical. No one knows what they would have accomplished had they not cheated. In any case, a student that is caught cheating on an exam typically gets an F (or worse expelled). They don't get commended on the hypothetical case where they might have gotten an A had they not cheaten. We should not treat statistics gained from cheaters as being comparable to non-cheaters.
  12. There is no question that Bonds and Clemens are two of the best players in baseball history? Can’t believe someone hasn’t already questioned this. A cheater that gets an A+ is not better than non cheaters that get a C+. Cheaters usually get an F, or worse, expelled.
