  1. We cannot assume the reallocation of any money. Until the owners prove they are willing to open the wallet and go big, they will be suspect in my mind. You either run with the big dogs or stay on the porch and pi** with the puppies, so far they have mostly been on the porch the last few years.
  2. From google search.... >>>MLB teams are not required to sign players who win arbitration hearings; instead, the arbitration process determines the player's salary for that season. <<<<
  3. It's my understanding that if the team loses arbitration they do not have to sign the player.
  4. If I were making the decision I would offer them both arbitration, for a slightly lower amount. If the Twins want to retain the player then it does not matter who wins, you pay the man. If the Twins want to trade the player it gives you a 3 month window to do so and if the player wins arbitration and the Twins' intention is to move on they are not obligated to sign him and they simply release the man. But what do I know, I was surprised they offered Larnauch arbitration last year and kept him on the roster for the whole season.
  5. I have friends near Sacramento so I might take you up on that offer!
  6. I'm watching the game using a veecee device, Rangers channel and it's about 5 minutes behind the action.
  7. Did the team exceed my expectations? Yes But only because my expectations were so low to begin with.
  8. I guess it is something to celebrate. I am glad they FINALLY called up some younger more althelitic players. Now if they quit with the attitude that anyone can play anywhere and start playing good defense things will organically improve. This was a lost season and Tom P refusing to admit that in order to 'inspire confidence' in the fan base wasted next year as well by refusing to play the young guns in a meaningful way so they can adjust to the big leagues. As has been mentioned on this forum, pick a direction.
  9. Good thing his defense was on their toes or they wouuld have got killed. Rockets all night.
  10. looks like they opened up the high dollar seats to surfers.
  11. well, they got the crookedest number 6 now!
  12. my gosh, sweet spot hitting every at bat.
