  1. Robots and computers will do almost everything in our kids lifetimes, maybe grandkids. There simply won't be as many jobs, but there will be more people. This economic model won't work.
  2. I hope this is plan L, give or take....
  3. Five one hundred? They weren't even trying. Seriously.
  4. Why not sign an, I don't know, MLB player? Bringing in a scrub to RF isn't going to make the team better.
  5. The quote want wasn't about Archer, it was about not trading prospects. So, if true, they will never really go all in.
  6. Apparently the GM was just was quoted as saying it is hard to give up prospects in trades, so apparently we aren't doing that either....
  7. Why did they fire Ryan, if nothing is going to change?
  8. Every website I read. They are planning to be competitive in the next year or two. They are about the same spot in the rebuild as the Twins.
  9. Almost no one throws 200 innings anymore. The game has changed. Why do people keep throwing that number out? He threw the 24th most innings in the game last year.
  10. The Phillies are a season away from adding legit free agents to supplement their roster. They aren't trading a cornerstone of their rebuild.
  11. can we fold Santana's suspension in to predict how many innings he'll pitch this year?
  12. Why trade for bad players? Not sure I understand.
  13. just sign a free agent, and wait for Wade, Lewis, Rooker,et.al.... Don't trade for an OF. They have plenty of money, and there are free agents, why not sign a guy and keep the prospects?
  14. Gutting? That seems hyperbolic....
  15. Too injured. Seriously.
  16. Gordon is in the top fifty prospects for some.... And kiriloff in the to 100....
  17. If I am the Rays, I want Kepler, Gordon, the AA,AAA, pitcher they like the best, and a low level guy in the Twins top fifteen.
  18. If they ever actually do something to improve the team, then those of us questioning them are likely to compliment them. Some people are capable of both complimenting the good, and criticizing the bad. No one is saying the Twins lied, when we take about being sold hope. They never sign big free agents. They said Darvish was a priority. That creates hope. Losing out on that is disappointing, because they created hope where normally none would exist. Why is it hard to understand that some people would be disappointed?
  19. Don't know why the Astros are dealing their depth. LA showed everyone how to use depth. Why not just sign lynn or Cobb, and keep the prospects?
  20. It seems odd this comes out now.. ... Just a weird coincidence.
  21. I'd rather have the long term deal. Many here fear old pitchers. I'd think they would like opt out. I would have offered 6 150. And let Mauer walk next year. Plus, I was explaining chief's point, I think.
  22. They supposedly offered twenty million to what's his name. They should have money left after acquiring Archer to sign a mid level guy.
  23. All those people are saying pitchers will decline. If now they won't be bad, then why not sign them? You can't say don't sign pitchers to long term deals because they will be bad for sure at the end, then say they only don't want bad players. Are you now seeing it isn't inevitable he declines?
  24. If they deal Kepler and don't sign a good OF,I will be confused. Getting Archer and not really replacing Kepler doesn't move the needle.
