    That's exactly it. I cannot understand why commenters on here downplay that so, so much.
  2. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Honest question, and I'm not knocking Pineda for this, but who is he mentoring? Who has he taken under his wing? There was visible chemistry and between Ervin Santana and José Berríos when Santana was here and it did appear to be a mentor relationship of a sort. What are people seeing now? Describe it to the rest of us so that we can see it.
  3. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I made an honest reply to you. This next reply of yours is unserious. The deadline is past. The roster going into 2022 is the essentially the same roster of 2019 and 2020, but with worse pitching.
  4. Hosken Bombo Disco
    No, the best case scenario for keeping Berrios in 2022 is that the team wins again and goes deep into the postseason—maybe even the World Series— and gives the fan base a fun, thrilling story to follow along with, and generates a ton of good will and positive media.

    Yeah I really like Martin the more I look. No wonder Jays fans are nervous. But Twins fans have a front row seat on how bad pitching can derail a season. Scouting a pitcher's stat line is the worst way to scout a pitcher, except for all the other ways (- Churchill on democracy quote) and I don't know how Woods Richardson stands out from the other guys in the system. Sure he's young for his level, but that doesn't seem to serve him well and probably means he's still a ways off.
  6. Hosken Bombo Disco
    On the contrary, I think trading Berríos is the low risk move. Going into 2022 with essentially the same team we had in 2019, 2020, 2021 and your two best players in their final years... that is the high risk, high reward move, in my opinion.
  7. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I mean, why not, right?
  8. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Then you know how it feels! The way this front office operates, it feels way too much like Minnesota Twins: The Board Game™
  9. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Because Berríos is under control for 2022, the penalty in this case is incurred by the Twins, in my opinion. I'm sure I still have that data somewhere. I will find it and put it in a blog, and maybe update it. We'll see. My hypothesis was that truly promising prospects do not change hands from team to team. One player who stands out as an exception as I recall is Carlos Gonzalez and the great years he had in Colorado.
  10. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Great. Prospects twice-traded do not fare well. I actually looked at this a couple years ago. There were a couple of exceptions of course and maybe something has changed since I looked or maybe this is “the one”
  11. Hosken Bombo Disco
    A trade for low minors players wont be able to judge the trade for several more years well played, falvine. well played
  12. Hosken Bombo Disco
    One “Like” given for the horse race announcer voice, a profound sadness for another season of bad pitching to resign onesself to in 2022
  13. Hosken Bombo Disco
    The Twins could throw in Rickey Robinson! \n/ (Thats our fictional stolen base coach ; game thread inside joke)
  14. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I’m happy for Caleb. He has generated a lot of whiffs this season and is probably our third or fourth best RP. If he is traded he would be low on the bullpen ladder of his new team (in other words, a low leverage guy).. nothing wrong with that, and he would be in a pennant race, so that would be fun.
  15. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Possibly for someone named 'Cash'?
  16. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Well this is thoroughly depressing news for people who want the Twins to keep Berrios and be competitive in 2022.
  17. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Wade was also left off the playoff roster for the Houston series, in favor of Kirilloff. Kirilloff needed to be added to the 40-man, and Sean Poppen was the DFA casualty. Not promising Poppen will be great but I was very surprised as i assumed Poppen was ahead of a half dozen other guys.
  18. Hosken Bombo Disco
    “What a game! How about that?”
  19. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Good lord
  20. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Okay Twins, if you pull this one out again, let’s go east on the Gatorade buckets and stuff again
  21. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Why proofreading is important!
  22. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Let’s see Astudillo’s helmet come off and somersault into home plate with the winning run! edit: nm
  23. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Bummer for the White Sox!
  24. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Is this a good time to share that Ryan Lamarre hit the game winning home run for the Yankees tonight
  25. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Is that guy any relation to Matt Shoemaker? Ba dum tschhh
