It's stupid. These are the kinds of numbers that lead to long term health issues in 10-30 years. Is that really worth it? 30+ years of pain and an inability to lift your arm over your head?
-
It isn't just about a career.....it is about being able to lift your arm over your head when you are 50. I guess risking a lifetime of pain and partial use of your arm is 'worth it'......

My favorite part of the site. Thanks to everyone that helped with this work.

I just hope this is a glimpse of what we will see in the future.

The Key to the Twins Offseason is....Brian Dozier?
Mike Sixel replied to Brandon Warne's topic in Minnesota Twins Talk
if only Cueto had been a FA..... -
Nobody cares, but.... Plouffe is doing well post-DL
Mike Sixel replied to adorduan's topic in Minnesota Twins Talk
I'm not sure why Plouffe plays right now at all...shouldn't Vargas, Sano, and Polanco have all his reps? -
James Beresford, Vargas, and Duffey called up
Mike Sixel replied to Danchat's topic in Minnesota Twins Talk
why, Seth, should Plouffe be playing at all right now? If you ran the team, and they were on pace to lose 100 games.....would you play Plouffe, or Vargas right now? Congrats to all three on their promotions. Happy for them all. -
How could Meyer never pitch here when sent down, and now be in the majors? Something is very wrong.
-
Why is the best coach in the majors then? What is "properly"? Why does Joe Maddon say that development continues in the majors, then? Are you of the belief that Berrios is learning more by dominating AAA pitching, than he could learn here, with Allen?
-
Not really. They can still make good and bad decisions going forward. We can still prefer to see certain players over others. I don't get why anyone that has spent the last few years here would suddenly stop hoping for specific things to change. I actually find this whole post of yours odd.
-
I do agree with those that are a bit confused by the roles Albers and Dean currently have. I think Duffey should throw his best pitch more, and more early in the count. Other pitchers/orgs are figuring out that is a good idea..... All that said.....Duffey and Berrios were terrible. I can squint and understand the decisions. But, if Allen is the best pitching coach, both those players should be here over Dean and Albers, and learning from him...If he's not the best pitching coach, um, well.

I wish I had listened to myself....could have a lot more money right now. But I diversified instead.....sigh.
-
Ya, this was a big loss, imo. For me, Twitter is blocked at work, so the posts are just blank......which is annoying. When I am home and looking, I can enjoy most of the Twitter work. I think Funky is doing a good job trying to build something new, in a competitive market. Personally, I used to go to footballs future all the time, but that group has become more and more serious and less and less fun. I have not yet built up any feeling for the Vikingsjournal community as a community, but maybe that will change over time. Or, maybe moving away from market will continue to erode my interest....
-
But you do mean me, right? Right?
-
I admit to considering this recently also, or some variant. But, I have not really figured out what I'd do yet. Guess I should look at it more.
-
Options are interesting.....I consider them gambling for the most part, unless you are hedging. Workday is also interesting, but IMO riskier.
-
In fairness, imo......you, me, Brock could have traded Span for a pitching prospect.....following a process isn't all that hard. Doing a process well also matters. They largely did not do that with Span or Revere (as far as we can tell so far). Or, they messed up both pitchers, we'll see.
-
Well, I still think that trade can work for them.....they aren't all that good, and needed numbers. But I'm sure I said it was awesome sauce and the Twins were idiots for not being like them.......I think I've matured my posting in the last year or two....

Welcome to the site! Ever to go a Hops game? I just moved out there, and live close....
-
Just when I thought we might be nearing the inevitable sell off.....I hope you all bought Shopify! I doubled down on Tesla yesterday after it dropped 5%......
-
The WSJ called OSU an embarrassment, one of the worst FBS teams around. So, I don't know what you are thinking..... But, unlike some years, they beat a team they should have beaten.
-
Thanks, Seth. I knew someone could help me. Makes sense.

Help me be smarter.....neither Wade or Granite was promoted, and Tanner English was?
