  1. It also ignores that higher ranked prospects actually succeed at a pretty good rate (according to the study), and that the kinds of players the Twins trade for are more likely to be successful than the entire population is.
  2. Once fans think teams cheat, a sport loses fans. Vegas isn't happy about it either.....
  3. Rooker is 25. His clock is not relevant.
  4. Why? They aren't going to be good during that time frame. And, as the new GM of the Red Sox said, it is bad management not to consider it.
  5. Make no mistake. This is about cutting costs, plainly and simply. There is no other reason they would all do this together. Just look at MLB history. Edit... And charging teams for moving divisions, I'd guess eventually charging all remaining teams some kind of fee.
  6. It would be nice if they started well, and made good adjustments....
  7. The QB should be suspended, agreed. Not so much on the rest. This wasn't part of the play.
  8. Also, Culpeper should have been able to throw that farther. I've always wondered about that play...
  9. Randy Moss was the best. Vikings should win easily.
  10. This is the kind of thing that kills good companies, assuming they can stand pat, and still be successful.
  11. I'm not sure you get the idea of the OP....
  12. There is a zero percent chance their coaches make tens of millions more or less if the revenues change. Coaches just aren't paid that much. Not even close.
  13. It doesn't matter who they talk to, it matters what they do. They needed pitching last year, and signed Perez.
  14. Entertaining! I'd want some assurance from Betts I can extend him first....
  15. I currently weigh the least I have in almost thirty years, btw.... At 155.
  16. Gee. Thanks. I never would have thought of those. It's not like I moved to a state where I can hike and golf year round, or even ski every month, technically. Thanks!
  17. I agree some people watch more than is likely good for them, but this isn't that thread, is it?
  18. I'd drop them to about twentieth.
  19. I should have known better than to care
  20. Pj going on the field is probably the difference in this game....ugh. We'll see, but ugh.
  21. This is also true.
  22. Seems like a good team, and a reasonable plan. Impressive work!
  23. Next year's free agent class is much worse. My point is clear.... It is not likely a team can acquire four good starting pitchers in one off season. They can't afford to make the same mistake they did last year again, having one pitcher on the roster signed past this year. The Twins can afford plenty of pitching, but that doesn't mean they can convince four good pitchers to come here.... It's not about money. It's about mutual desire. Free agency and trades are about two parties agreeing. It's hard to do that for four times in one year.
  24. Awful actions....glad he's suspended w/o pay. Terrible.
