  1. All for playing baseball? It's not a game. These guys work very, very, hard. It's a job, like any other.
  2. You have to give up something to get something. There should be pain.
  3. That pick is valued at around 4.1 million, if that is of interest.
  4. I doubt he'll remember this a year from now. Not even a little.
  5. Based on the twins adding a prospect and a draft pick? And, apparently, the sox get Downs, who is higher rated, and a catching prospect to boot. Again, someone help me understand the anger at a team doing what teams do.
  6. I'm not thrilled about the money, unless they deal at deadline. I suppose to opens up that possibility more, which has value. I'm just not sure it has pick 67 and Raley value. That's two years now they've sold picks for money. But, if they don't believe that Gaterol is a starter, this still makes sense to do in some combination. Overall, I like the deal, just not sure I love the deal.
  7. Have you read any of the links posted here about what teams know before they see medicals? They know as much as us. Then their doctors get details. It isn't reasonable that those details made them fear things more?
  8. To be clear, you believe an agent, and think a front office is making baseball decisions based on fan reaction?
  9. Interestingly, some of the baseball people I follow on Twitter are basically loling the Sox..... So maybe I'm not quite right
  10. The vitriol at a team that got the medical details, and then decided they didn't like the idea as much, is amazing to me. They did nothing wrong at all.
  11. Ryu only cost money.... It's not even close to the same thing. But this is the price you pay for not signing Darvish or Corbin, or any of the big names this year. Or trading for Stroman.
  12. I would hate that trade so much. So very much.
  13. It appears the commissioner covered up the front office's involvement in teh Astro's cheating. I'm not sure he's going to get away with this like maybe someone else does..... The integrity of the games kind of matters.
  14. I really don't think the new FO, run by an ex-Ray, is making baseball decisions based on fan reactions. Seriously.
  15. And he's really not that young.......So, ya, if they want POWER on the bench, he's an obvious choice.
  16. Even though the twins have said that he is a RP....you want to argue that him being projected as a RP is arbitrary? How else would you like him projected?
  17. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/top-43-prospects-minnesota-twins/ Might want to double check that.....(Gaterol isn't on the list, but if the deal falls thru, he'll be back), but Balazovic is a 50.......and they aren't dealing him.
  18. which is literally what the Twins said they'd do with him. Also, how else would you like projections to work for rookies?
  19. I'd bet good money no such player is dealt this off season. Not even close. And, they still have plenty of prospects to deal at the deadline.
  20. 2.0 vs .05 isn't much?
  21. And the three years before that?
