  1. And here I thought your first post was a joke. Interesting!
  2. I just can't blame the FO for this.....Larnach, Kiriloff, Lewis, Kepler all hurt at the same time. Plus Garlick may now be hurt. It's hard to see how any team could lose their 2-5th best OFers at the same time and have a good OF during that time. Luckily, Gordon is actually have a decent year. And Celestino just isn't quite ready (is he hurt, I've lost count).
  3. Meh. They needed pitching this year, I don't get the angst. Sure, he could be good in two or more years..
  4. Big fan of this for Minnesota. Hate it for Baltimore, who could be good this year or next, and gets nothing in the short term. This not being only a rental makes it very good.
  5. How so? He's hurt. How is that on the organization? Seriously. Sometimes this site....
  6. Lots of ads stretching out the width lately. Been really bad.
  7. I wish him luck. But I'm getting nervous about his health. The Kubel comparison is very apt.
  8. I'm just hoping one of them is healthy next year for the year, and three other two contribute at this point. More than that would be great, of course.
  9. Concur. I think this is a good deal. This team now has three legit starters for this year and next. Finding another in the group they have will be huge.
  10. Nice deal for both teams. Definitely worth the risk for the twins, especially with two more years of control. This is why I always say move mediocre starters to the bullpen sooner rather than later .....
  11. The As wanted MLB ready pitching. It sends no message about the system other than they didn't have that specific thing. They got a guy that's made three starts this year, and at least one of the others will be in the majors next year.
  12. Opportunity cost. If he's on the roster, someone else isn't. He won't be here next year, let someone else get experience. That's my reason to DFA him.
  13. I always had doubts about Wallner, but this is worse than I figured. Is he pressing?
  14. Fangraphs not nearly as high on Preilip (sp?) as this site is....
  15. DFA if you can't get someone to take him, which no idea why anyone would. He's not part of this year or next year. Too bad, he looked so promising.
  16. Every thread? Even about winning games. Even in draft pick threads? Every thread. Over and over. Which is different than skeptical.... It's the constant complaining.
  17. Is this a real take? You think this pitching staff should be twenty games over? There are five teams at that pace or better....
  18. To be clear, Cincy, Detroit, KC, etc are always playing for next year (pittsburgh is another).....so it isn't like that plan is guaranteed to work. And, there is a really good article online right now about trading prospects for elite players, the team getting the elite player often wins the deal.....because lots of prospects don't work out.
  19. Didn't you ask me about 150 innings? I must have misunderstood,
  20. Less than 100 pitched 120 innings last year.
