  1. thanks for the updates, Seth. Appreciated.
  2. next year, next year, next year.......been reading that here for three years now. Remember when people debated if the Cubs or Astros were ahead of the Twins, just last year? Good times.
  3. teams end up taking less later all the time....it's one of the risks of waiting. though, I think he's re-signed.....
  4. If we think he's not great, why would a GM give up 3-4 prospects, including a pitcher in the top 10 - 20 prospects in teh game?
  5. Can't. Tell. If. Serious. If so, why? Based on what, in the last two years?
  6. hardcore statheads know that value....
  7. They don't have enough AAA pitchers? I mean, I have no idea, hence the question....
  8. I guess I should have been more precise, in that I was asking about MLB. And, from what I read, teams have said they would only want Otani to pitch to start, though we have no idea what they'd really do if he gets to come here.
  9. I have a bit of hope for Tonkin, if he's used in 1 inning bursts....call me naive and overly hopeful, but I do.
  10. Let's hope he's wrong! mike sixel 3:10 More likely, Dozier is traded during the year, or signs an extension during the year? Dan Szymborski 3:10 Traded during the year and eventually for less than the Rays got
  11. Logan was great. Don't have access to Legion. Looking forward to GoG.
  12. Thanks, i just see no good idea here, with a number 1 pick type player. You are either trying to make him great, or not taking him.
  13. We kept meaning to see Arrival, and have not. We will when it is streaming. We somehow never discussed FB....but then, we've mostly been hiking and other things the last year....
  14. Are you arguing that studies that take socio-economic status into account, which still show that darker skinned Americans are incarcerated at higher rates, with stiffer penalties are, what, exactly? Are you arguing there isn't racism in the judicial system?
  15. According to fangraphs, the Twins have a number 3, and a bunch of number 4/5/6 types. Also, no one is suggesting they need to have five number 1 starters. Also, you can sign a FA to a long term deal, so that when they are good, that player is still here. If they aren't good in the next 3-4 years, they will have wasted Buxton and Sano.
  16. A team can work on the bullpen and the rotation and hitters all at the same time. This thread is about the bullpen
  17. A 103 loss team gets older, not younger. thoughts?
  18. See above, name 1 player that has done that in the last 50 years?
  19. In the last 50 years, who has done that? There is a reason you either pitch or hit at one time, not do both.
  20. john olerud upside......not "he's going to be john olerud". but ya, that would be a nice career for sure.
  21. Why the bleep would you slow their development from good to great at something, by asking them to do more than 1 thing? There is a reason players specialize as either a hitter or pitcher....terrible idea, imo. Sure, after a few years if it doesn't pan out, make a switch, but not at the beginning. Pick one. Try to be great at it.
  22. Sure, whatever, but giving them a pass on this seems a bit overly forgiving to me....I'd like to see this team "wing it" by betting on an unproven young guy as a RP, just one time, out of the gate.
  23. that does not make them independent, right? I'm curious what point you are making, nothing more or less.
