  1. Ha, I skipped all three of those, thanks for the warning. I may have to miss this thread for a few months.....have fun, I'll be back.
  2. This is not serious, is it? another RP?
  3. ya, they need some hitters for sure in the lower levels. I don't get the whole "corner OF isn't important" thing, never have. He can flat out hit. I'll take that over some projectable athlete that can't hit, and worry about LF/RF/1b/dh, whatever, later.
  4. Mind boggling we can have multiple threads on negative people, and posts basically calling humans bad people, but we can't have a joke poll up to make light of the situation.
  5. You think there is any chance of that? so, you would not deal for Chapman?
  6. not to mention Kepler, BW3, and a random FA target......I get why people want to keep Arcia, but most posts read "don't trade any good prospects" imo....which means don't bother trading, imo.
  7. I wouldn't deal any prospects until July.....but if they are leading the division in July, then the rules change, imo, and Dave is wrong.
  8. he's basically trying to push all the non-baseball talk off page 1, 1 is a number, right?
  9. They aren't dealing enough to get a front line starter. Not gonna happen. 90% as effective for a RP is just below average for a RP, if that is your bar, they are already on the roster. They have plenty of "good" players, if you are dealing, you need to deal for better than good. That is going to cost players. If you won't deal, what is your plan for the logjam of DH/1B types that are on the 40 man after next year?
  10. that's what you meant to type, right?
  11. why trade for guys that aren't elite, given the depth they have? if you won't trade for 1.5 years of an elite play, not sure why we'd ever trade.
  12. None of those guys is one of the best RP on all of the planet.
  13. 51? they built an outdoor stadium there? Unreal.......
  14. Ya, I may have under clubbed there.......Arcia and a 2nd tier SP prospect?
  15. compared to Willingham and Arcia?
  16. Hmmmm.....I'd put him about 4th on the "realistic dream candidate list" I think. Meyer and Kepler, would you do that? It would take something like that I bet. I would not do that, I don't think. What is his contract status?
  17. Odd that they aren't just on the MLB information site or whatever that thing is, freely available to all teams.
  18. It is a good point, plus Santana can't pitch in the post season. I don't envy Ryan this particular decision right now.
  19. I agree, having potential reinforcements is great, if they are used. I also agree, Mauer and Suzuki need to be better to reduce the fluky outcomes so far produced. I do have confidence Mauer can do more, and that DH can be better. I also agree, improving corner OF defense does matter.
  20. No, I am genuinely curious. I mean, is he the kind of guy they think is really good? Or do they just want to get him going because he's on the team? Why send Vargas down, and not "try to get him going"? What is different about Escobar, that the right way to "fix" him is to keep playing him? These are the things I think about instead of the PM that is making it harder for my team to succeed at work right now.
  21. I would think this is the answer.....if you want to have conversations about other topics, start them. If you don't want to read conversations that will bother you, don't.
  22. I am curious about that: a: why do you care what other fans (or anyone for that matter) feel about the Twins? b: why do you think you should tell them to feel differently? I am genuinely curious if your happiness is driven by how others are fans.
