    a very skinny duck

    you need a starting pitcher and wait 9 days to give him one start where he only threw sixty-some pitches. We've seen what Hughes can do, still don't have much of an indication of what Meyer can do, but it would be nice to find out if Meyer can put it together at the bigs what he's shown in stretches in the minors.

    Doubletree on Lasalle is a good hotel at an ok price, but it's a 6 block walk. Have breakfast at Hell's Kitchen. Lots of good bars downtown. I like the Pour House

    not sure if contract holders are the only stakeholders with assumed risk. Agreed, contract holders are at a high risk for loss, but if the players owe x% of future earnings, they become assets to be liquidated to pay the contract holders and lien holders. Of course the lien holders get paid before the contract holders, but it's the players that do the paying as debtors. Could you imagine some bankruptcy judge saying "well, you have made 6 mil so far in your career, we think you'll play another decade, at rate of wage growth that should be an additional 50 mil. You owe 5.6 mil due today"

    So Fantex is like a Pay Day loan. I wonder what happens to the players if Fantex goes bankrupt? Does their debt become immediately due to the lien/shareholders?
  6. Richie the Rally Goat
    such as Jesse "The Vulture" Crain in 2005?

    i too would be interested, but I think your rate is too lopsided. This isn't the STrib, and maybe a 25/75 commenter per reader would be pretty incredible investment. I'd be shocked if it was less than 10/90. To the topic I wouldn't lump Arcia in with Nolasco. But yeah I'd still like to see Nolasco get traded at first opportunity.

    true fewer decisions are made about the rotation, but when 162 games per year are started by mediocrity, the decisions don't matter and you won't be over 81 wins, now... I wish that bullpen was living up to mediocre as the standard. Yikes
  9. Richie the Rally Goat
    nope, May and Hughes needs to switch roles. Meyer might be a long term bullpen guy, but I'd rather know for certain he won't be a better starter first
  10. Richie the Rally Goat
    this could be said about the whole pitching staff. Individual mediocre veteran A isnt the problem so much as there's a whole staff full of the same profile pitchers and no better options to improve the quality of the whole
  11. Richie the Rally Goat
    with Sano at 3rd Buxton and Arcia can be outfielders in the same game
  12. Richie the Rally Goat
    Hey, did you know Berrios is wearing number 17? Cuz he's wearing number 17
  13. Richie the Rally Goat
    Dazzle was just starting to jynx this when he got cut off
  14. Richie the Rally Goat
    yup, it's called injury insurance. 2.3 mil as a 20-something year old well invested would go a long ways for the dreaded one pitch , POP! And done. The odds of any athlete making it as a pro compared to the odds of injury make this a good hedge.
  15. Richie the Rally Goat
    that'll do pig. That'll do
  16. Richie the Rally Goat
    No kidding? You mean to tell me that a guy who has been pretty stable during his career has a sharp downturn in effectiveness winds up injured?! Amazing
  17. Richie the Rally Goat
    i agree with your analysis, but not sure Molitor is justified in trusting Fien over Meyer. I get trusting Mauer over Park or Plouffe over Sano at third (stupid situation, but not Molitor's fault) but the bullpen has been terrible and overworked, and all options need to be on the table.
  18. Richie the Rally Goat
    me too
  19. Richie the Rally Goat
    Danny said the same
  20. Richie the Rally Goat
    how much would it take to watch 891 games like this?
  21. Richie the Rally Goat
    makes Buxton look good
  22. Richie the Rally Goat
    ugh
  23. Richie the Rally Goat
    not watching the game, dick said catchers are 10/69 hitting?
  24. Richie the Rally Goat
    cheers was a good show... Mayday fits for a few twins pitchers
  25. Richie the Rally Goat
    i wish I could like this again
