    One is watchable. One wasn't.

    Can we go the rest of the season without the inanity of saying the bullpen is a strength??? It isn't. It is theoretically better than at the beginning of the season. Probably. 100% turnover wouldn't bother me one bit. Not the way I'd prefer, but there is nothing to build on. No solid foundation. You can build your house on a solid foundation, or not. It might function for a month or two without that foundation, but it will let you down when you truly need it!

    (If I may use the royal) We signed a guy to a muliyear contract who had never played a full season. There was no secret about that. We got a bit of utterly spectacular play as a two-way player that we expect from our CFs. We got even more time of good/great defense and acceptable bat. And a bit of playing time that was nothing but time! And we got a lot of IL time where his personality and work ethic were his only contribution. About what should have been expected when the final "t" in Buxton was crossed and "i" in Twins was dotted.

    "Hey y'all! We're playing an extra game tomorrow. Tickets available where you normally get 'em!" That is a great day for a baseball fan!!!

    You make the qualifying offer, no question. 1) He accepts and we have a starting catcher next season. Or, he can be traded. And then we need a catcher, at least short-term. 2) He rejects the QO and we get a prospect, just one a development step or two behind the prospect forgone at this years deadline. And we need a stop-gap catcher, at least, until the catching talent makes it to Minneapolis. Even if the QO changes significantly in structure during negotiations for a new collective bargaining agreement, it will be grandfathered in over at least one season to allow a degree of continuity from the present agreement to the next.

    I said before, he is way too athletic to be such a bad defensive "finisher". Looks great getting into the general area to make plays. He then instantly looks like he just woke up for the 1st time ever on a baseball diamond!!! BOOM, everything goes completely to ...pot. (needed a non-obscenity, none came to mind) He is way too good of an athlete to be so regularly bad in the field.

    Nolan Ryan would recommend pickle brine for blister management. If you think that sounds bad, remember that his remedy was a replacement for "pi$$ on it" (literally).

    The bullpen should be better, but that isn't much of a bar to clear! Do like the additions, but love that there wasn't some insane bidding war for what they acquired. One "top" prospect going out, and a starter and 2 BP arms coming in isn't too bad.
  32. Bodie
    That is how ya' get the best record in baseball!
  33. Bodie
    He needs some consistency. His highs are otherworldly, but rare. His lows are bafflingly bad and all too common. I have some hope left that he can play at a star level, but six month hiatuses in any sort of productive play makes it hard.
  34. Bodie
    I've seen very few players look so athletic getting near to a ball in play, and so unathlethic when he's there!

    150 IP as a career high, but will take front-of-the-rotation package to get him. HUGE injury risk based on his history. Intriguing, but not worth it. And a moot point now, anyway!
