    Just checking, but you'd rather have Dozier for two meaningless years, than De Leon and another prospect or two, because why? I mean, I get it, no one wants to sell for 95 cents on the dollar, but if the option is to burn the dollar and get nothing, isn't 95 cents better?

    Not a huge fan of any Braves SP ....the Phillies are rebuilding, they aren't trading prospects for a 2B, imo. Why is AZ trading SP? I mean, I have no idea what their new leadership thinks, so it's possible, but I don't see it. Not saying Dodgers or bust, but it is hard to see a better match, or even a good match...... If they need a 3B, just sign Plouffe. He's adequate, given the rest of their team.

    Fair, but who? The Pirates aren't doing this, no matter what people think. The Yankees might, maybe, but do they have a SP prospect even as good as De Leon? The LAA....no farm system? If they don't trade Brian, and keep this team pretty much as is, well, they won't be competing for some time. The White Sox did it right, imo.

    Then what? Just not have any pitching in 2017, and not add pieces for 2018 and beyond? Just pretty much keep the same team? I mean, I guess 100% of everything could break right, and they could win like 75 or so.....

    It's the rule 5 draft, the only interesting thing is that it is something to talk about. The odds on these guys are longer than the icicle hanging from a MN roof w/o insulation....

    Damn, and I thought Whine Line was about the Twins, not cats and dogs. Sigh, isn't one thread on this site sacred at all? Fine, I am going to whine about the Vikings not winning this year, they fooled me, I hate them for that.* *You know, when I was younger, that emotion might have been that strong, but it is just sports people....

    Well, I am A LOT older than you Brock, and have spent the last 10 years putting every penny I could into the markets and retirement, after getting a late start. It helps that the giant US insurance company I work for that is HQ in MN allows us to buy at a discount, and that the stock is up over 400% in the last 5 years or so.....And, I took the money from the house sale and put it in the market at almost the perfect moment this summer......

    When we remodeled, all we found was the worst, most complicated, wiring ever, and a decision to use GLUE FROM HELL on the floors so we couldn't pull up the ugly wood they put on top of the beautiful wood.......I learned how to wire an entire house, but the flooring just made us sell (ok, that's not why we sold). Good luck on the remodel, it's nice to get a new house w/o buying a new house.

    Way too real to have a show.....what's the shtick, the truth? good luck with that...

    Very cool. Have you decided to look for the family, to pass this to them?
  12. Mike Sixel
    I miss game threads so much. Let's do this again next week.
  13. Mike Sixel
    Nice....
  14. Mike Sixel
    I agree, I am really surprised we aren't hearing interest in him. He is a legit MLB pitcher on a bad team....
  15. Mike Sixel
    Probably cut a year off, yes. Might also get me a new car.....
  16. Mike Sixel
    The second one is the priceless one, nicely done, sir.
  17. Mike Sixel
    Uh, time doesn't flow more slowly out here, I don't think it does anyway.....
  18. Mike Sixel
    Oh, I'm up a TON, like, I put several tens of thousands in......but it could have been even more.
  19. Mike Sixel
    Not wearing sandals....
  20. Mike Sixel
    so, like, ten dollars, rounded up?
  21. Mike Sixel
    Are using F or Bref, or your own metric? because that matters.....as you well know.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Still in my PJs.....working from home because it might ice here today.....
  23. Mike Sixel
    Also, I ate really old celery, still not sure it was a good idea, but we'll see.
  24. Mike Sixel
    crap. OTOH, he was old and sick, so maybe not crap. letting people die doesn't lead to more people dying, it leads to less people suffering....
  25. Mike Sixel
    In all of history, every run is a bubble, the real question is how far down will it go in the next year or so....
