  1. The deficit is BOOMING. And the GDP is shrinking. How are we going to pay more for stuff, with less revenue? I'm asking how that works, because the evidence, over the last three GOP presidents, is that this does not work.
  2. Jhoan Duran, RHP, Twins (45 FV to 50 fV): Duran’s velo is up, with the right-hander sitting 95-99 now. The secondaries are good, as is the frame. He’s athletic, and strike throwing has improved but is still just okay. He could continue to rise if that aspect turns a corner, which is possible given Duran’s grace and body control. Interestingly, they did not move Lewis down like everyone else is....... https://blogs.fangraphs.com/we-adjusted-several-prospects-rankings/
  3. Apparently tax cuts are more important than infrastructure, or paying as you go, or any government services......That is certainly one thing that Trump/GOP voters seems to believe and support at this point. The good of me, vs a healthy nation.
  4. A handful happen before deadline week every year. But not many.
  5. The team wouldn't be scoring so many runs if it wasn't built to break the home run record.....
  6. I'm all in on Arreaz being the second baseman full time at this point, until he proves he isn't.
  7. Of course, that's not the definition either. Maybe we should skip politics in these threads...
  8. As am I. But AAA depth is handy. Or a utility guy you like. Which they have.....
  9. At least Bauer has a sense of humor (Mod note: brief NSFW language in video)
  10. I am a fan, generally, of how he's managing the pen. I'm concerned about Rogers usage level, but he was warming at 3-2. I doubt he pitches today....
  11. Remember when entire said they could trade Gordon, because Lewis and Javier were locks to be here in the next year or two? Good times. I'd be careful dealing Gordon at this point. I'd do it for the right player, but I'd be careful.
  12. About five trades a year happen in the first three weeks of July. I hope to have a blog post, part two of a series, up really next week looking at those. As for Mejia,I thought he had a shot at the rotation, before the year started. No doubt he's on a roster this year, and next.
  13. Taking a flyer on DeJong was a fine move. Just didn't work, but that's the nature of this kind of deal.
  14. This isn't about this year's draft. It's about the Lewis year, when people say they couldn't take a guy slot number one and still sign Enlow. Actually, in this thread, it was about the owner's willingness to spend an extra million or not, as principle..... Nothing about this is about this year's draft.
  15. Why would the price drop later in the deadline if that's when trade happen? The data is not going to show that....
  16. I don't get this take. He's a number three starter. He gave up one earned run last night. It wasn't pretty, but still
  17. It's not an agreement. The agreement is you can go over, with penalties. 23 teams were over last year. The agreement is you can go over if you want.
  18. Yes, it did. The cut scene kind of ruined my emotional response though, and seemed to cheapen things. Great season, though it is turning into more horror it seems. I don't get why two college students had to say goodbye....
  19. Reliever risk is that because of command and or control issues, or stature, or pitch mix, that it is likely they won't actually be a starter.
  20. Like the unearned Cleveland runs? They count, that's all that matters for this game.
