  1. Yes, they should deal him, but I doubt they get MLB ready pitching back. I'd deal him for low level guys with big upsides. That money will be needed, and they have replacements (likely a small step back next year on offense, but they can handle that if they spend money on REAL pitching).
  2. Ya, I can't see how Rosario returns anything that will help in the next year or two. Plus, let's face it, he's not been all that good this year. Given Lanarch and Kiriloff and others that can progress, I doubt Eddie is in MN in 3 years. Maybe not 2. Maybe not next year if they want to save some money for other moves. I'd be ok with them getting low level HIGH UPSIDE players for him this off season. That's how you build a sustainable winning culture. Yes, they will lose something on the field (probably) and maybe the clubhouse, but he's replaceable imo. Their lack of major moves this trade deadline doesn't exactly inspire confidence they can fill 4 holes on the starting pitching staff, but we'll see.
  3. I don't want to point to one player. It could be that they are drafting better hitters.... I mean, they took power hitters early, not pitchers and not Nick Gordon. Maybe that's why there are more home runs. I am saying nothing more or less than one year doesn't tell us much at all about development in the minors.
  4. Roster resource on fangraphs has all the data you need on options.... As for Romero.... Exhibit A for trading prospects sometimes.... His lack of helping the team this year is definitely part of the bullpen problem. I got no answers for what to do, though
  5. Right, so not sure how we can judge the development process at all yet.
  6. Astudillo is the easiest.... He is not on the roster unless there is an injury. Eleven or twelve pitchers. Great post, btw.
  7. Hard to say. I'm not sure how we would judge this. Other than Arreaz, not much help has come this year. Yet. I suppose we could see if the twins get more risers in rankings?
  8. Heck of a last scene in that Star Wars teaser!
  9. I've been all over loving the Jeffers pick since day one. Big fan.
  10. That new Mandelorian preview is awesome.
  11. John Carter of Mars was not as bad as I had been led to believe. My wife and I were mostly entertained.
  12. It is their job to make the team better, not Chief's. They acted just like the last regime, trading meh prospects away, but keeping the best ones. The exact opposite of Houston. So, yes, exactly what many of us said would happen. The window is wide open, and they added two ok relief pitchers. But at least they didn't spend money on Keuchel, or top prospects on anyone. So the window can open again, only to allow them to do the same thing again and again.
  13. Colts fans booed him yesterday. Others are calling him soft. And complaining about their fantasy team. Maybe we do deserve to go extinct.
  14. Great piece on Logan Morrison... https://blogs.fangraphs.com/sunday-notes-logan-morrison-is-cherishing-the-present-while-looking-beyond-mlb/
  15. I hate it when people get hurt. Bummer. Real bummer.
  16. A healthy Sano is a great Sano. I hope he stays healthy for a long time!
  17. Andrew Luck..... Wow.
  18. I'm still trying to process the Luck news.
  19. If she was here, and I was sitting a lot closer. .
