  1. It can have an effect for sure, but it's it a necessary ingredient? Can you predict it, until players actually spend time together? Would you get rid of the best player on your team if three guys didn't get along with him? I think it's a big part of the managers job, but adjusting players on the team should be about talent, imo.
  2. Chemistry is almost always a post hoc argument. Do people really think every bad team has bad chemistry, and every good team good? No chance.
  3. I'd like him to play about 40 games at first this year, and 80-100 at catcher. Pinch hit in the rest of the games. but that bat should not play as little as it did this year. Also, yes, I'd consider moving him. Just like I said they should move Mauer from behind the plate to preserve his health and bat......same exact reason.
  4. I think Price is a realistic trade candidate, that the Twins could get. I am unsure how I feel about that, due to his health and decline (though the decline could easily reverse, imo).
  5. While I agree it is unlikely he doesn't go much beyond that......there is no evidence of the Verducci effect being real.....and if Gaterol is healthy and a starter, he should pitch as many innings as they need him to. But, most teams are risk adverse by nature, and follow the rule to a large degree.
  6. I think we will be seeing this kind of article for the next few years, until he does leave at some point.
  7. I both like and hate this post so much....
  8. "has the potential" is about 10000x different than "is better than"......
  9. I think that's the most likely way that Rosario gets dealt, actually.
  10. Kershaw is not going anywhere. Paddock? No chance. The Padres are loaded on the farm. You'd have to trade two MLB starters and a good minor league player to even start a conversation. No chance he's being traded. He's going to be in his prime when they are good. Seriously bad take. The other two? Possible, but not in love with Archer at all.
  11. Gaterol, who has zero MLB starts, is better than any of them? Wow.
  12. Jeffers traded? Otherwise, not sure Odo violates the rules or not, but if not, I agree with this for 2022.
  13. I have no idea what this means re: my post.
  14. I think people forget this. Many teams did not want him at four million..... Those saying the money doesn't matter, can you really say that with certainty given this team's history?
  15. What did you base this knowledge of the future on?
  16. It's all about the budget. If signing him stops them from signing a great pitcher, no way. If signing him has no effect on off season and during the season deals, I'm indifferent
  17. SO, not, exciting to watch a pitcher bat.....
  18. Heh, you aren't the first person to say this......
  19. Meh, it's not that much for the line, but he'll have to pay for the phone....now, when he gets a full time job? He'll have to pay for it all...
  20. My youngest son (22) needs a new phone, and we are about to switch plans....he's an Apple guy all the way. Wants the newest, so it lasts longer. We'll have to negotiate how he pays for it on my bill.....
  21. hahahahahaha.
  22. Like my life has any privacy at all......but it is an interesting perspective.
  23. She was literally sitting in the room when he was asked..... They are clueless. Or lack empathy. Or any sense of accountability.
