  1. Fair, that was a really bad choice of words on my behalf.
  2. I don't think anyone is treating it as gospel......many are pointing out there is evidence, in fWAR, that May was actually good last year as a starter, but not that that proves that he will be. People on the "other side" are saying he sucked last year, and others are trying to say that is not true. My issue is that the Twins, once again, are doing the expeditious thing, and not playing for the most upside. No real surprise at all, frankly.
  3. which young prospects? Perkins? Fien? Jepsen? May? Nolasco/Milone?
  4. Well, that's certainly possible.......but does anyone think they see him as a starter this year, or does moving to the pen make it even more obvious they don't* *unless they want to repeat last year's fiasco.
  5. To start, and be ready to start if/when someone fails or is hurt......if he was planned as a starter, that is what would happen, methinks.
  6. It's hard to see how he becomes a starter, after 2.5 years as a reliever, then.
  7. It could be if you think it will influence his decision to stay, or not, in a few years, yes.
  8. I doubt anyone is surprised by this. I don't like the decision, personally. If the Twins really think he has 4 pitches, that's 2 more than Duffey has......good pitchers with 4 pitches are starters, and not relievers, for a reason....those people are very rare on the planet, and you use them for the most amount of time as possible.
  9. that simply isn't true......he will lose millions in the time it takes to get to a real contract. It also pretty much assumes the conclusion, right? Of course a GREAT RP makes more than a bad starter.......what if he is an average starter, and used in middle relief, which guy makes more money that way? Because Ryan has already said he might be the long RP........
  10. Over, I went under on the other two, someone has to take those wins.......
  11. Not cold, just a different kind of fan.....not a better or worse one, just different.
  12. I wonder how Kepler feels about his position, if he out hits Buxton at every level?
  13. You can't understand how you can root for the Twins to win, and root for other players to have good careers? I can, but I am not a typical fan at all.
  14. Bah, I meant, no place did he even mention Murphy.....that should have been obvious.
  15. Could you make that just a wee bit bigger, I don't think the guy sitting 200 feet behind me could see it clearly......but, I get your point. Almost no one likes the Yankees.
  16. Can't you hope for both Murphy and Hicks? No place did he even mention Hicks. Me, I want everyone to be happy and productive, so I too am rooting for Mr. Hicks to do well. why not?
  17. I'd like Park, if he is up, to play as much as possible. It's the only way he'll get good.....imo.
  18. Under.....I really wish they could get a real revenue stream, and be longer term contenders. And, again, don't pick me for the razors.....
  19. I endorse this decision. Throw him in the pool, let him learn how to swim.
  20. Under, but don't pick me, I already use their competitors' product...... 15 articles, 15 teams in the AL, hmmmmmm......
  21. Isn't it even higher, since a HR doesn't count? Right, a HR does not count for BABIP calculations, so if you don't strike a guy out, he either is on 1-3rd, 29% of the time, or hits a HR......
  22. I was just saying what the person said........not what I think or not. No idea if that was said or not.
  23. ENTIRE draft, as in, all of the players taken by all of the teams......
