who said they did? No one, not one person. They are a very good team. They have a great farm system. They are trying to improve their team. Isn't that what a baseball fan should want, a team with a farm system and money?
-
Who is Jerry Ryan? Is there such a person you are comparing him to?
-
I think they'll both about what they were last year, which is nice. I don't see a big drop off for either.
-
Ya, but they went out and signed a legit #3, when he's healthy. Oh, and they now have a great back end of the bullpen. And they still have 2 of the top 10 prospects in all of baseball. And, the best pitcher in all of the world.

Play to win, baby, play to win.

If I was Miami, I would do that deal. Berrios could be a two....Kepler could be a very good starting CF, and Stewart is a 20 year old that has only pitched full time for 2 years or so. Fernandez is awesome, but he's only 1 guy. I understand prospects are risky, but I do like both those players. I'd also consider doing that deal if I'm MN.
-
All fair points. As we've discussed in PMs and for all to see, I think the mods generally do a great job here. This thread is about a specific thing. I gave a specific example that keeps happening over and over.
-
I think you can ask for 1 of those guys, and a few other minor leaguers, and get a yes. I don't think you will get a yes for two of them.
-
I really find the bordering on offensive names the Packers are called on the Vikings' part of the site sad, frankly. I've been warned about (what I thought was cleverly) changing a players name to be spelled like cheese. Another poster here clearly is using Plouffe's name in a way that is denigrating to him and non-heterosexuals (deny it all you want, we know what he is doing), and yet that is allowed.
-
Internet shout like a troll? How would that work?
-
Two years? Wow. congrats to him and his agents.
-
Hey, as a gamer, I'm excited about Dice Day. Or, I would be, if I was going to be home.
-
At the middle of the year, he had Berrios 21 overall. Man, he hates Berrios.
-
That explains why every report I'm looking at looks behind now....rose colored glasses!
-
I find it funny. to each his own.
-
He has Berrios as a top pitching prospect, just not an ace type. He has always loved Kepler's skill set, and he is very consistent about juding 20 year olds by stat lines. So, ya, none of these surprise me.
-
I fail to see how potentially using in Sano means Plouffe is blocking him. There is an opening in RF. The FO thinks Sano can play RF. They would not be the first FO to do this with a player like Sano. No one is doing anything here other than trying to ADD to the team's ability to win games. No one is "blocking" Sano over ability or personality. The FO thinks that Sano fits in RF better than Plouffe or Mauer or Park or whomever else.....and the FO thinks having those 4 together is better than having three of them and someone else. Nothing more or less is being done here.

We started hiking in MN Vally and Old Cedar this year, for the first time in the 50 or so years I've lived here. Great spot. I have nice binocs......but I am not awesome at using them yet. I suppose I should start tracking here before we move...... sounds like you are having fun and family time with it. That's awesome.
-
Awesome. We tracked for awhile. But our Peru trip had bad weather in the rain forest, and we stopped. I would guess we are in the 100 range. If they could get the sound identifier working, that would be awesome. Maybe I will start again, but detail orientation is not my greatest strength. Even though the rainforest was less than perfect, we did see the cock of the rock, and thousands of parrots and other birds at a lick.
-
Because he was still a catcher, and the org and he refused to move to OF or 1B and protect him and his body.
-
Given that supposedly black friday gun sales set some sort of record, I don't see this changing any time soon...... Brock, I am worried about storage space....if we start a thread after every shooting, will TD be able to handle it?
-
I agree......but others don't. I think he thinks "right now, this is my plan".
-
Except that's not what people are typing, is it? They are saying he's lying to get leverage. That this is not his plan.
-
He might change his mind, but I believe this is his plan. And, I for one, have no issue with it.
-
they had him practicing in the OF, which is what you'd want at this stage, right?
