    You'll find a lot more uncritical praise than unwarranted criticism here with this move!
  2. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Call me a skeptic. Maybe Pineda can come out of the pen late in 2018. He throws hard but been mediocre as a starter.
  3. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Ok, so can we agree Archer >>>> Gonsalves?

    Nice to see you show Sano some respect, finally. However, you could argue that the above-average dependability of Longoria is preferable to the unpredictability and highs and lows of having Sano around, much as I'm in his corner and hope he gets straightened out.
  5. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Archer and Longoria for Gonsalves and Sano. Who says no? (Besides Tampa, of course)
  6. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Gordon is near-MLB ready and plays a premium position. Very agonizing to part with a guy like that!
  7. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Wow, rumor of a solid proposal. I would do that trade.
  8. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Speaking of the 5% percent Fangraphs probability, it's possible to go back and look at what the probability was on a daily basis, instead of just assuming it was a constant number for the whole period leading up to the deadline. Not sure how that number is calculated, nor much interested in it, but I will assume it was dependent on whether the Twins won or lost that day.

    This is a pretty new phenomenon, trading this bonus money.
  10. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Just so you know, neither of those guys has played an inning of even A ball. That's quite the projection.
  11. Hosken Bombo Disco
    See I would have them flipped. Catcher guy interests me but I'm not interested in an outfielder with zero power and can't field. Can't possibly be ahead of Rooker. Rooker was mashing.
  12. Hosken Bombo Disco
    you get what you pay for?
  13. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I feel... underwhelmed
  14. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Completely turn it around? The way I see it, the Twins were in first place in mid June and several games over .500 at various points in early July.
  15. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I respect that people disagree, but all I said was that the Twins schedule was about to get easier. What I hear you (and others) saying is that Falvey did not have the judgment to forsee this.
  16. Hosken Bombo Disco
    The schedule was going to get easier, and this information was known ahead of time.
  17. Hosken Bombo Disco
    You may be right, but it strikes me as really hard to get into another person's mind in a case like this.
  18. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Everything I have read about him has said exactly the same thing---problem is, the only other thing I have read about him is this one single post of yours that I just quoted
  19. Hosken Bombo Disco
    +1
  20. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I don't remember it being as tidy as him wanting to retire, but I can respect that. I don't follow it that close. Seemed like he wanted more control of the program too.
  21. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Maybe the whole dorm scandal goes down differently with Kill still leading the program, or maybe it doesn't happen at all. Sure having epilepsy is unusual for a football coach, but I'm just wondering if his "health" was a face-saving move of some kind to get him out of the program. I have no clue but in hindsight it looks like if they really wanted to keep him they could have. Because he is coaching again. Edit: snarky comment about Gophers athletics removed
  22. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Well, that's what we thought, but he is back on the sideline with Rutgers this year?
  23. Hosken Bombo Disco
    What was wrong with Kill, again?
  24. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Yes, that is how it is supposed to work. I also read it as they felt Buxton needs to work it out against lesser competition; not sure he is good enough to work throufh it against major leaguers during a pennant race. To be clear, we're not exactly sure who in the FO wanted Buxton demoted, or how committed they were to that plan. But someone did. Not too big deal considering how bad Buxton was at times, I only mention it because other posters are disputing the opinion I share that the FO guys underestimated the team this year.
  25. Hosken Bombo Disco
    There was the story that the front office was considering demoting Buxton this summer, but Rowson talked them out of it. That was an underestimation IMO.
