  1. Because Pineda isn't in rookie ball. He's getting older and breaking down. It couldn't be more different.
  2. How old was Polanco? Did he miss three years of playing a full season? Not even a little comparable.
  3. Playing Devils advocate, you don't know this for certain. It may be true it may not be true. To be clear, the substance is banned. Taking it is cheating.
  4. I doubt they sign one of those guys. They should not sign Pineda. When did he last play a full year? And he knowingly took a banned substance, screwing the team this year. Perez is a number five starter. Mid market teams should not pay that kind of player more than the minimum. The have to lock up Odorrizi. No way you go into the off season needing three pitchers. Good luck to the FO, they are going to need it. Of course, they chose this path last off season, by not acquiring any longer term players, I have no sympathy at all.
  5. I assume didn't need to try to score in the second half?
  6. If he knew it was banned, does it matter why?
  7. He took a banned substance..... Does it matter why? He hurt the team. Does it matter why, other than to keep himself alive, is there a good reason?
  8. So now they probably won't re sign two of the free agents. And shouldn't sign Perez. Ouch. This is gonna hurt in the post season. And next year.
  9. So, Rosario for which Mets pitcher?
  10. More Twins questions and answers than you can shake a stick at: http://meadowparty.com/blog/2019/09/05/klawchat-9-5-19/
  11. That makes them a contender for these purposes. If you think you can contend, you are interested in short term players. I'll ask again, which contender has a number 3 or better pitcher to spare?
  12. Ten wins, early playoff exit. The DL and OL hold them back, along with Rhodes' decline.
  13. I saw the stat on another site.... Where they are usually quite accurate, so I didn't verify it. Thanks.
  14. Imagine how many HRs Bert would give up with this ball....
  15. Recency bias. He was great early, now bad. All we recall is the recent stuff. If the plan includes Perez next year, I'll be disappointed.
  16. I heard it was heading to Alabama.....
  17. Why is a non contender trading for a guy that is not cheap, and has two years of control left?
  18. which clearly they didn't feel he was doing....so why call him up now?
  19. except that whole pesky....no one wants to give up a draft pick thing..... which, really, would you not give up a first round pick for Pineda?
  20. Except that's not the option.....You need one of those guys to be the number 5, that still leaves two spots open. Cole and ? fill those?
  21. How do you propose getting 4 starters here, if you don't QO one or both of Pineda and Odo?
  22. There aren't going to be two better pitchers than Berrios going to any one team, let alone here. That's just not realistic, given history of all of MLB.
  23. they've only made the playoffs half the time.....and not done all that well in them. What's your bar for success?
