  1. Fuji and honeycrisp for eating..all others for baking and sauces.....though I hear there some new varieties coming soon.
  2. This is a good trade. First time I ac recall Ryan trading a good young player for a mlb player, let alone also getting a prospect. Maybe this is a new Ryan. I agree with others, this does not mean you have to punt on next year. Great trade, though the injury makes me nervous.
  3. I just realized, we need sound...we need tone, like happy elevator music or something....of course, it is bad enough I am multi tasking at work, annoying my cube mates with sound is probably a bad idea......
  4. Or you could get even 1 for three years, then add another when Justins deal comes off the books next year....still hoping......
  5. I had hoped they would use that money, combined with the other money they have already freed up, to sign two or three of the tier 1 pitchers. But since it looks like even with tens of millions to spend, and having Mauer, they will not even sign a tier 2 guy.....
  6. At first I thought this might be a good idea. But since it is clear they refuse to sign legit free agents, I am now opposed to this idea.
  7. It is not over paying if that is what the market gives every year. That is the market they choose to be a part of if they want to own a MLB team. Oh, and the price goes up every year....so their hesitancy is only going to get worse.
  8. Heh...I do also agree with that...I do want a good discussion with passion.
  9. I do agree, the owners do a great job, this post was not a slam on them at all....and snarky us great, but there seems to be more than that lately. Maybe I am just overly sensitive for some reason.
  10. Man, people are being mean spirited in their posts......is there a reason we cannot be respectful of each other while still strongly disagreeing in our ideas. We have long time people being condescending. We have people calling each other names. It would be awesome to come here and enjoy the site.....btw, some comments in posts are sarcastic, before responding, think about if the author was serious or not....
  11. If you sign Marcum for three years, he is here in the years you are planning for. If you cannot sign 3 pitchers in one year, why not sign at least one now?
  12. Great idea, and very good chat. Keep them coming.
  13. And the pitching will be even more expensive next off-season. And the season after that. And the huge drop in attendance when they punt? How will that help the payroll?
  14. And do what about attendance? And just pocket the cut in payroll?
  15. Need coverage for what? It seems like they are not going to sign legit pitchers, why do they need coverage? They need prospects, because they appear to be not interested in signing free agents that are good players.....still hoping that isn't the case, and these rumors are wrong....still hoping.
  16. Ugh, I just read it....so 4 number 4 or 5 starters....what is the plan? Because those names will not increase, and may decrease, ticket sales.
  17. Good point messedup....
  18. Did not know that, thanks.
  19. Money and years are the same to me....the issue is can you keep him or not, and that is largely money driven. Because even if he is awesome, you can still offer him a ton of money to keep him.
  20. But you will have delayed the rebuild, because you are getting a low A guy in 2013, instead of 2012....
