  1. No one is trading right now.
  2. He's a hitter. They have shown no desire to sign a pitcher for more than two, maybe three, years at a time. I'll be happy to be wrong.
  3. I'll wait for an answer to the question. But I'll answer yours....too many guys got hurt to realistically expect them to be deep right now. Unless you think they should have five or six starters ready in the minors all the time. Which I'm guessing will lead to you always being disappointed. Because it seems unrealistic to me.
  4. Of course, we are taking about the best pitchers next year, in that conversation. So, I'm not sure your point? You think those guys are signing short term deals for big money in Minnesota?
  5. They signed two starters and traded for two. How is that planning on the minors?
  6. How many do you expect in a year? Ober, Ryan, winder, and smeltzer are all rookies. Let's at least be realistic, or not. Up to you.
  7. That was my whole point, you can't be taken seriously if your opinion is they should sell at 50 cents on the dollar. Nothing more or less.
  8. He still hasn't played a full year in the minors. My take is that selling him for fifty cents on the dollar would be a firable offense.
  9. Pretty big assumption they'll spend big on free agent pitching, when they have completely shown they won't so far. I'd be shocked if they did so.
  10. It is? They are down to zero good options in the minors already, and Bundy is gone soon. How many good pitchers do you realistically expect them to home grow this fast? They've done great up until now, but expecting more this year or next is expecting a lot. Also, as what happened with the M&M boys getting hurt reminds us, growth isn't linear necessarily. If you never strike when your team is hot, they might not be again.
  11. Montas is the only likely candidate I'd give up a lot for. Others? I'd give up guys not in the top ten.....
  12. Agreed. No idea why Oakland would deal for Kepler, or why a contender would deal Kepler.....
  13. I'm done with Bundy. Hated the signing, and it's what I thought. When everyone is healthy, he better be out of the rotation.
  14. When they regress to what their record should be, everyone will say it was the change....
  15. I'm confused they are playing. I was led to believe the season was over after the Detroit series.
  16. You don't cut open a human if you don't have to. That's why they waited.
  17. And yet, they clearly needed another starter. Gotta give up players to get them. But I get it....
  18. We're getting close to the end of season four of ST Discovery. What a slog. Their choice not to make the show about hope and rebuilding the Federation seemed a bad choice, that season four validates as bad.
  19. Which would imply they have a number 2 catcher....which was denied in the first sentence.
