  1. When did they sign CC to the second deal? Wasn't that last year ?
  2. Vazquez for a defense first catcher for ten million. They didn't shed Kepler either. Covering is fine, if you don't plan to sign anyone else, and that doesn't account for next year's increases. My preference is irrelevant to what a team with budget constraints should do.
  3. One more thought... If the BAM money was one time.... They should not have signed long term deals, but only one year deals last year.. Locking in long term deals with one time money is bad business.
  4. Nice 16% profit in less than a week on that swing trade.....
  5. If they were emulating the Ray's, Kepler would be traded. They aren't really emulating them. They need to pick a lane.
  6. Also, Baltimore was terrible for years, and refused to invest in the team last year .... I'd guess their payroll is lower than the Twins....
  7. All y'all have staked out your positions for years on this topic. You have more stamina than me!
  8. I'm trying to be a better person, so I'll feel bad for him for a minute or two. He's one of the final straws for me ever rooting for individual athletes......
  9. Cool. Was just going to check....
  10. Likely it does nothing good. You can be competitive without spending in the top half, but you aren't winning it all.
  11. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/2024-prospect-week-chat/ ram 1:15 Has there ever been a disparity between your list and the ZIPs list that has caused you to go back and reevaluate a prospect? Eric A Longenhagen 1:17 Yes, Danny sends me zips a few days ahead so i can double check some guys. This year it was Danny de Andrade, who I felt comfortable moving on from quickly from a top 100 standpoint, still a fair prospect who'll be on their team list
  12. For fun? I'm going with Montgomery for 1-2 years......
  13. At least he's being honest.
  14. Big fan of this combination. I expect Jeffers to be about ten percent worse, and Vazquez to be much better.... So a little better overall than last year. I hope Jeffers starts about ten or twenty more games than last year....
  15. Never too old! I bought more Nvidia after this mornings plunge.
  16. It's literally an article about payroll....what id you expect?
  17. that said, I 100% think this is why payroll is what it is this year. I also think they believe (rightly?) in the SP in AA and AAA and don't think they need to sign a FA SP to a 2+ year deal.
  18. I'm guessing Hunter and Cousins are gone. This is going to be ugly for a couple years.
  19. Fangraohs writers listed no one in the Twins.... Those two were from scouts. I was kind of bummed about that, given how many made that list.
  20. They brought in a RB, he got hurt.... To be clear, I'm no defender of this front office.....
  21. Every penny spent on dudes that don't play is money not spent on guys that do. Hard pass.
  22. I'd fire the entire FO if he's brought back. I might insist they fold the team completely.
  23. If he's not playing CF, I don't know why....and hope he's awesome to start the year in AAA and traded, because they are wasting time with him in the infield in AAA given what is in MN and AAA already.
