  1. why? Why give up on a negotiation if you want the player over that? We see leaks every day, it's part of the game.
  2. if so, they should shut down right now. I hope not.
  3. Are we sure ATL didn't leak first? I would.....
  4. I agree. I'd put it in the 10-20% range, but then, that's a WAG based only on the fact they are close and lots can happen in the next 2+ months.
  5. Agreed, but I thought we were discussing something totally different. I guess not. What would you say the odds are?
  6. btw, Ken Rosenthal is writing on FB now. A very good follow.
  7. I'm guessing Wade or Granite, personally. It fits their needs, I think. Garver is also likely. I think they want someone close to the majors, given where they are in the process, and I don't think they want more pitchers.
  8. Will this reach Dozier traded thread length, all for the same outcome? I'm going: no maybe
  9. Huh? We weren't even discussing base runs.
  10. that sure would make it cheap on teh Twins' side! I like it.
  11. I asked in the comments. Sometimes they look at the comments....
  12. Same with Berrios / Santana vs all other starters. If Berrios gives them a 55% chance to win, and Santana a 52% chance, and Mejia 48% and all others 40........averages look bad. But games are discrete entities, not a single 162x9 event. I'm sure there is research on this out there, but I've never looked for it.
  13. I believe they update the odds daily.
  14. Predicting a likely outcome is very different than saying there are chances that a different outcome will happen. and no, FG had MN at 5.1% to make the playoffs before the year started, so it's double. http://www.fangraphs.com/coolgraphs.aspx?lg=AL&div=C&stat=poff&year=2017
  15. Like trading for a 3 month rental? I mean, that's not exactly about long term sustainability. I'm not saying its the wrong thing to do, but how does that help the long term?
  16. I'm not sure how baseruns works.....but I think it ignores that Molitor uses his good RPs in tight games, and that it isn't all "sequencing". Not that all of the run differential should be ignored, that would be silly.
  17. Agreed. And I'm sure some of the board will cringe at the name, since that's the range of highly variable outcomes and fan favorites.
  18. Let's just say that Cameron doesn't agree with this article, he was clear on that on Twitter last night. He feels the Twins should be sellers.
  19. I'd add Thorpe and Stewart to that list. Though I don't know how Stewart does it, but his last 6 starts have worked, strikeouts be danged.
  20. His lawyers are digging for "dirt" on Mueller and his staff......
  21. where is "meh" at in the list? I've never quite figured that out.
  22. Yes they are. But its a a lot harder to acquire good, long term, assets.
