  1. Forgot to bring back up charger to game, almost dead better go find those charger stations or a tv
  2. Sets up to take great pitching at 35 and 37 where failure is tolerable. Once again falvey makes the smarter option

  4. Love the pick me and 3 other people clapped lots of confused looks
  5. The key to me is where does the couple million dollar advantage pay off most, If you sprinkle in an extra $500,000 every pick you can be getting top 50 talent even in the 5th or 6th round. At the top of the draft it is only an advantage in years of a clear #1.
  6. Do you ever play fantasy football auction drafts, you'll quickly learn how bad of an approach that is.
  7. The idea of having him or Greene play the field 3 of the other 4 days intrigues me but the odds that once they are in triple A they are still prospects in both respects are slim and doing both probably hurts their ability to do the other.
  8. Except for this the Angles can get virtually any of the leading cy young candidates today with one phone call if they offer Mike Trout.
  9. Anyone talking about money in the context of finances and not strategy is missing the point big time. The Yankees Cubs Dodgers and Red Sox in this particular draft would all be trying the same thing. Hunter Greene is good but as far as i can tell he is not so good you just use the #1 pick and the entire slot on him and call it a day without considering and potentially pulling off other options.
  10. I think we basically agree, by question is if none of the other top 4 or 5 give them a bargain do they end up with their true #1 and is that Greene.
  11. Does anyone else feel like the Twins are floating out all these non Hunter Greene names to try to get a kid excited about going #1 and increase the chances they will take less? I kind of feel like there's a good chance in the end the twins go with Greene after none of these other guys give them the discount they want. In the past I've heard insiders don't get any info out of Falvey but the confidence some of these mockers seem to have as they change the Twins pick every day suggest the twins are leaking these names. No reason to do that unless it's either a done deal or your trying to get the info out for a purpose. Also if your Greene's agent don't you call the Twins about now and say you'll take 6.5?
  12. My #1 hope is whoever we get comes in 2+ million under slot with the player being no worse then a top 5 projected pick. Royce Lewis seems to be the guy that would best fit. I'm also curiuse what happens to Hunter Greene. If he goes #2 does he sign slightly over slot, if he drops below 2 then what. Because of all these factors could the twins convince him to come in slightly under slot. A lot of phone calls with agents to be made in the next 5 hours, the current rules are easily manipulated to a teams advantage at #1. Also lets try to get hacked It's comical the best team in baseball with pleanty of great prospects on the way is getting all those extra picks.
  13. I wonder if the Tigers or even the White Sox will realize this division might be had with as little as 85 wins and make an aggressive deal early. Not sure what impact players are available at this point but there's no reason any of the 5 teams can't win this division. I suppose the Royals could try too but that seems like a dumb move for them and they don't normally make dumb moves.
  14. I think my wife would like to put about half a million dollars into a $200,000 house. I hate the process of selling so it kind of seems like the way to go rather then buying a $280,000 house with everything we want.
  15. Umpires guessing where the strike zone is again!!!!
  16. The Twins are 17 outs away from a full 2 game lead and 44 outs and a run away from a 2 and a half game lead or in other words the Indian's trail the White Sox 2-1 with one out in the bottom of the 4th.
  17. I don't want Molitor to have one bit of input in roster moves
  18. Bryce Harper threw his helmet at a pitcher and then engaged with him landing at least one solid punch. I wonder if he'll get a longer suspension then Sano. Pitcher deserved to get knocked out by the way but that doesn't change things for Harper hopefully they both get 10 games. Actually hopefully they both get zero and we see more of this cause it entertains me.
  19. If Molitor is not fired tonight this team will not win 70o games. If he is fired tonight they win 90. He's that pathetic and has been all 3 years.
  20. springer and the manager need to be ejected what a joke
  21. 2 guys who were called up out of desperation don't exactly give me confidence. The fact Pressly has failed changes nothing.
  22. Because you never know when your gonna need to use 3 or 4 relief pitchers, and they aren't good enough to be our #1 option
  23. Given the 10 day DL list I sure hope day to day means one of two things, he plays or goes to the DL tomorrow. I don't want to throw his defense away for potentially 7 or 8 extra games but time away wouldn't be the worst for him.
