  1. no issues. I like you are willing to come here, even though most here don't agree with you on many things.
  2. I wanted Darvish, who is pitching better as this year goes on....you know, the expensive, actually good, starting pitcher. To my point......sign the actually good pitchers. Of course it's ok to think Keuchel isn't any good any more.....but to suggest Stewart will be as good as him this year? Or next? The Twins have 1 starting pitcher for next year they can trust. One. Where do people think 6-7 more are going to come from? Heck, three?
  3. He actually offered advice on how to put it out......
  4. Hmmm....I said maybe we are more informed now.....
  5. Of course it's a talking point. They are saying it all the time, all across the league. And, yup, there aren't many good SP FAs, it's why a team that wants to compete should, you know, sign the rare ones that show up.....instead of always finding a reason not to. Or, the Twins could suddenly find 4 pitchers next year in their current system, on top of Berrios (and, 3-4 more as backups).
  6. language is very, very, very important.
  7. like the GOP on healthcare, or most anything the previous POTUS wanted/did. True. It's a sad state of affairs right now. Now the protests have to go beyond the immigrants? Also, maybe, I don't know, we are more informed and better educated than 100 years ago......
  8. They can lose cave, Astudillo, or Adrianza, with few, if any, issues. Those guys are all backups, with people in the minors who can be backups.
  9. OTOH, it's a great talking point for the business to say why it's not spending more to win more.....which we all know is important, based on what teams actually say about flexibility (which they rarely use, see ATL).
  10. It's very sad indeed.
  11. nobody screamed and yelled about quotas back in teh day? Want to place a wager on that? your larger point, that the Dems don't have any kind of answer, is true. But, we are 16 or more months from the next election, they have time to develop one (though like you, I'd like to see one now).
  12. that was my least favorite scene.....the rest of the scenes were much more about character, which is what this show is best at. IMO.
  13. Well, he's the only Sp FA left for this year, so if they are going to improve they'll need someone (or three) in the minors to be good, or to trade prospects for MLB players (which we are still waiting to happen in a big or even medium way in MN's MLB history). And, next year's FA class isn't sparkling, so I assume we'll just have the same conversation again next year when they don't spend on pitching.
  14. Mike sixel 12:38 If the Twins signed keuchel, do you think they'd win the division? Thanks AvatarDan Szymborski 12:38 No
  15. I'll go with astudillo sent down, then we see how people preform....
  16. Plenty of people here weren't sleeping on Garver. If anything, the opposite.
  17. Is Mejia already warming up? Good luck to the team today.
  18. To build on this, the free agents the twins sign won't be SS, OF, or catcher. If Sano is healthy, that scratches either third or first of the list also. So, the list of free agents they would be interested in is second base, one of third or first, and pitching...... Are there really that many good ones available next year? I mean, the people saying just wait weren't exactly encouraging this off season, because the pitchers were too old, or too expensive,or not good enough.... But now those same posters are saying that the next class will be different?
  19. I'm very happy for Mr Davis. Phew.
  20. In all seriousness, you look at what Keuchel has done at the major league level, and think Stewart will do that this year? It's possible, but likely? Because if you think so, then you think he's better than all but one or two of the current pitchers on this roster....
  21. How do you suggest they fix the pitching, if not Keuchel? Because I doubt there is a good, young, under control pitcher, available in trade
  22. Great episode.
  23. Me. My son texted and wanted to know how many of us could be logged in on our account, since we have three households....
  24. He's going to get remarkably healthy and better at fielding very soon
