  1. This is your first warning on this thread....this is a politics free zone, sir.
  2. I was just trying to understand.... I like both the ESan and Castro signing (assuming those are two of what you meant). I am trying to guess the other unsuccessfully right now.
  3. I did post about the just missed guys......and about the young players. I did both of those things..... As for the other part, I just posted I misunderstood Seth's point....
  4. Got it, I thought you were responding to people criticizing the draft. Apologies. KLAW agrees with you, as I said, deep, but not enough high end upside talent. I'd assume their first pick makes the top 50, maybe higher, easily.
  5. I think Sano will be in the top 20-30 players in baseball this year. I think Berrios will be just below a league average SP among qualified pitchers (even if they hold him back, and he doesn't qualify). I think Kepler will be ok, but is a bit from being above average. I like Buxton to play better defense, I have literally no idea what to expect on offense.
  6. People are talking about the quality of the draft, and you keep mentioning three guys signed as international FAs..... Teams with lots of players above the TWins have graduated great players too....the Twins aren't the only ones to graduate players to the majors.
  7. Aren't all those working, if they are 1 FA SP from being in the playoffs? I think it's a legit question, if people think the system is a playoff caliber system, why fire the GM?
  8. I have posted the Ryan question, to those that say we just need the young guys to improve, and the team will finish aroun .500 or better, and they just need to sign 1 big time pitcher to be in the playoff hunt......if all that is true, then why fire the guy?
  9. I'm not a defender of the previous FO.....but there are a couple players that KLAW and others think could crack those lists, if they show something this year. Either they are young (Kiriloff), or have questions that need to be answered (Jay).
  10. Isn't that pretty much what everyone is typing?
  11. hahaha, good catch. 75ish win team!
  12. Matt 12:18 Pod's post this morning told me to take Max Kepler off my sleeper list. What say you, Eno? Eno Sarris 12:20 I sold Kepler in a one-year league before he went into the tailspin because his statcast numbers weren't great. But the year to year correlation on statcast wasn't as amazing as I thought it would be when I ran it. I think he'll still hit 15 homers and steal 10 bases and have a good OBP, but that's not worth a poop ton in today's game. Marc 12:50 What are your thoughts on Berrios and Severino in keeper leagues? (As keepers) Eno Sarris 12:50 Rather have Berrios, he at least has two pitches. Right now, Severino has the fastball and I don't dont trust the other two.
  13. Romero has to be in the top 15 RHP, I'd guess.....didn't do the math. Jay would be close to the top 10 LHP, given he's on the "just missed list" for the top 100.
  14. KLAW released his top 10 prospects by position today. Twins: Catcher...none 1B.....none 2B....none SS....Nick Gordon, number 10 3B....none OF....none RHP....none LHP....none sigh.....I think he's been pretty clear, deep, but lacking in high upside
  15. Dave, how do you invest in bitcoin? I'm looking at gbtc, for example....
  16. good points....I hope to never read about sophomore slumps, though, since that would imply Kepler will be worse. OTOH, didn't everyone else's young players get experience last year? Didn't other teams add/delete players? Sometimes I feel like we say "the Twins young player will get better", without acknowledging other teams have young players too......
  17. It sounds more complicated than just that quote......
  18. Pretty sure Jesus wasn't bragging all the time.....
  19. Ya, funny, I had thought Trea Turner had won it one year.... I like how Bryce Harper is on the list....
  20. 32% of USAians believe it is important to be Christian to be an American......
  21. Bryant, , Bennintidi? AJ Reed.....not a bad list lately.
  22. KLAW has Romero at 63, and he agrees with you.
  23. It is true, I dropped NFLX for NVIDA, which tripled in price last year.... edit: bragging while I can, since I usually suck at this.
  24. You type that, and I type shopify .....someday they'll listen, Dave.
  25. so they can't sign good FAs ever, or just when they are bad?
