  1. Bummer, get well soon!
  2. I must have read it wrong.....it seemed, to me, to imply that change was risky and shouldn't be made. Reader error, I guess.
  3. I bet the Cards don't get off free.....
  4. Probably counts me out.....I'm more likeable to most.
  5. snobbery, mostly.....imo.
  6. Twins farm system not in KLAW's latest top 10..... The team is going to lose 90-100 games, and you think next year will be different? What will be different, other than Berrios being here, do you think?
  7. According to Pohlad, the most important characteristic is that the new GM is lovable......he actually said that.......in a paragraph of words......
  8. Mike is Stow 12:52 Miguel Sano, will he live up to expectations or turn into Chris Carter? august fagerstrom 12:52 He's already way better than Chris Carter's ever been The "live up to expectations" thing is always tough, because fans consistently have totally unrealistic expectations
  9. You must not like us, to post this......
  10. I'd like this, but your sw won't let me....
  11. Not acting out of fear is a terrible way to lead a business (or your life).
  12. that was my second thought.....
  13. Agreed, that was my first thought also. But, as I said in another thread, we have no idea which "side" either Ryan or the owners are on these issues, but I wish I did know.
  14. I'd rather have two Dozier's than 1 of some guys, but oooops!
  15. People fear a salary dump? Mauer, E San, Nolasco, Hughes, Plouffe, Dozier, Perkins, Dozier..... who on that last would be bad to get rid of?
  16. Given the Kubel / Bartlett spring, it is hard for me to see how Antony (who didn't know what many advanced stats were a few years ago) could be a top candidate at this point......I suppose he could surprise us all, but we only know what we know. We know what his 1 spring looked like, and we know he had literally no idea about advanced stats when they were already in the public domain for years.
  17. I'm not saying/guessing why the coverage is kid glove....but, imo, it is.
  18. Agreed, there has been a lot of research in this thread, using data to make points. Love that.
  19. This. But, ya, DSP has that job, and Pohlad has already said DSP would be involved in the decision making, so, ya.....not happening. Not a Cherrington fan. He undid a lot of what Epstein did, imo.
  20. I have to agree with that last part. Pohlad and St. Peter are good at things, no doubt. You can see it in the success of various actions. But, like you, I am not confident that either one knows the first thing about hiring a good GM.
  21. You have been following how hard these reporters cover the team, right?
  22. Just because we sentence men way too gently for what they do to women and children does not mean we should not sentence criminals like we do......it means we should sentence men more harshly, imo. These comparisons are off......just like our society.
  23. This is such a well written, even handed piece! Thank you Seth. There is not some good vs evil, binary, thing in life........and Ryan had strengths and weaknesses like we all do. I think it was time, but this whole thing seems very oddly handled to me. Seriously well written, Seth.
  24. Why? Why not look at the whole staff, over a long time period, and compare it to the other staffs? Why only look at the best pitchers?
  25. He's bad at defense, bad at base stealing, and bad at hitting. Other than that, he totally is a great MLB player. Molitor's love for him is exhibit X on why he should be gone, but, hey, the owner says his future boss doesn't get to make that decision......so, ya.
