  1. Yes, he is, if you look at the totality of how he hits, not just one number, and compare him to other players. That said, I think he might hit for slightly more power this year, and it won't be a completely empty 271.
  2. It's all about the prospect. If he's not good, the trade makes little sense. I agree. Not a huge fan of him already being on the forty man....
  3. I'm confused about trading a real asset for short term help, on a team that refuses to have pitching. What's the point, other than losing an asset and taking up two forty man spots? That's backward.
  4. I gave it a C, on the tiny chance the minor league player has value. They aren't competing this year, so trading a real asset for a short term player makes zero sense. Therefore, the minor league guy better be good, or they wasted an asset.
  5. He said there were five guys available as free agents as good as this guy. Hence my question, which free agent SS that they would sign is that good?
  6. Really? Who? I'm genuinely curious which free agents you think put up 2 war next year.
  7. There's a difference between ok contender, and serious contenders. No one can look at this pitching and think they are serious contenders. no idea why this is in italics.
  8. They aren't serious contenders this year. I'm not sure what you expect at this point, realistically.
  9. He was better last year than I thought. If he does put up two WAR at SS this year, it isn't a bad trade. I don't love it, as I really don't want Rortdvert in the majors, but I guess we'll see
  10. Maybe stop taking bat first corner players in the early rounds? Or, trade some of those?
  11. Add deshaun to the list of alleged awful people that goes unpunished.... That hurts Kirk's value.
  12. Big win for all of us, not having him on free tv.
  13. Bears traded Mack....that's good for the short term (which I am not sure is good or not for the long term).
  14. Some mediocre, cheap, pitcher.
  15. The contract would be extended, and much closer to $35MM per year in cap hit (which is still a lot....). I don't think he'll be traded, but if he is, he's going to fetch more than some think.
  16. And there were people here arguing that Twins shouldn't make a change in GM.....those drafts are awful, and many were criticized at the time, not just in hindsight. That level of futility defies odds for picks that high (that many of them). Whatever we said on the board is not relevant, we aren't paid GMs with reams of data and employees helping us.....
  17. They must be awful business people if they are losing money.......like some claim....
  18. This is great for those that want to deal Kirk, since Wentz to the one QB needy team that would NOT deal for Cousins. Cousins sits between the two QBs that were dealt, and is much closer to Wilson than Wentz. I'd guess they can get more than a first for him if they want.....
  19. No need to keep Thielen. Sign an OK vet, draft a WR in round 3 or so, and go from there.
