  1. More resigned than accepting.
  2. Kohl Stewart has no trade value, does Cabbage? Archer is going to cost 1 great and 2 good prospects.
  3. In fairness, most of us wanted that when they really were rebuilding from scratch, and were criticized on this site then too..... Do people really think fans that post here all the time want the team in a perpetual rebuilding process? Really? Santana is 35, check out the long list of successful 35+ year old pitchers in history.....
  4. NO CHANCE this is enough. No way.
  5. I thought that tweet was updated to say to CR after starting out?
  6. I said it at the time, so not hindsight. And, it was about either going in, or not going in. They sat in the middle, as they usually do here. So, no, it had NOTHING to do with the overall finishing record for me. Not at all. But, thanks for putting words in my mouth that I never once said.
  7. Or they shouldn't go half in.....that was, imo, the problem. They made one tiny move, when 2-3 were needed. Going half in doesn't usually help all that much. IMO, you can't look at trades in a vacuum, but have to look at the whole context. IMO, in context, it was a bad trade.
  8. Pretty loaded in the system.
  9. That's certainly possible. There are always reasons for individual decisions, but eventually it is a pattern.
  10. CR is hardly aggressive either, and why can't he play OF at CR to start?
  11. Maybe that's part of the problem....not enough good players.
  12. Pretty much this, which is sad. So few veterans with value, they can't sell. So many holes, they can't buy. I see lots of sitting around doing nothing much that matters also.
  13. How do I pick stocks? Hmmmm... Motley Fool, friends, even my sons....I listen to those three sources. It's funny, I have a BBA in finance, and and MBA in finance, and I don't think I've looked at a BS or IS one time when making a decision. Now, my goals and approach are maybe different than many. I am trying to grow thru risk. I have a very high tolerance for risk, but if it goes bad, I bail and move on (DDD and Whole Foods are good examples....even with the bump I would not have made much/any money). I have some simple rules: Invest in companies you have a decent understanding in Have some companies that have moats (Amazon and Shopfiy, for example) Take chances on companies that the market doesn't understand (Tesla) but are really aiming 5-10 years out. It does help I have lots of stock from my employer, so I can be very risky elsewhere.
  14. What pitchers? Bad pickups from the DFA pile? Good luck. This FO seems even more conservative. The number one pick, in the lowest level possible. A 22 year old, almost 23, going below A ball. Virtually no promotions of prospects. What pitchers are going too learn to pitch?
  15. Twins daily posters.... Alexa, tell me a joke Alexa.... Have you seen those pitchers?
  16. Levine.... Alexa, buy starting pitching Alexa.... Sorry, that is on back order, should I put it in your cart?
  17. Falvey... Alexa, buy pitching Alexa...I have a sale on old relief pitchers....
  18. Need some humor.... As read on the internet.... Bezos.... Alexa, buy food at whole foods Alexa... Buying whole foods
  19. Can't see the play, but that's one more reason I don't trust Rosario long term, he seems to make bad decisions too often
  20. There aren't many good options for starters. And they choose this bullpen.
  21. He can't do that against people close to his age? Really?
  22. That's what happens when you decide to sign 100 year old free agents, and to trust Hughes. But, hey, we should completely trust them.
  23. Can't wait to read how well he pitched again. Sigh.
  24. It's important 22 year olds​ from top conferences play against teenagers.... I would like to thank Cleveland for giving turley a free out....
