No price for a soda is a good price.....

Adam 1:56 Love the chats Keith, thanks for taking the time to do them. With Sano's latest injury, it's hard for this Twins fan to see any reason that he'll be successful consistently long term. Do you think he'll ever put it together? Keith Law 1:56 For stretches, at least. Lot of hitting ability and raw power, with an idea at the plate. http://meadowparty.com/blog/2019/03/15/klawchat-3-15-19/

Both. As a step in a long process. Not the end game.

Twins 2019 Position Analysis: Designated Hitter
Mike Sixel replied to Nick Nelson's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
Terrible analogy, because there isn't a 25 person limit outside sports. That said, it's their best move of an otherwise underwhelming off-season. -
They care about knowing where they live. How would you like to be traded to another city? These are people, with families and friends and homes. Not widgets to be moved around as if they had no real value as humans
-
Preach it!
-
Basically the path I've suggested is most likely to work.
-
Oddly, the right won with those people leading the way, and have many of their policies passed. Maybe liberals should learn some things from them. Though I share your distaste
-
If you are a liberal, and care about the country, and you are really old.... Well, I'd retire for the good of the world. If RBG dies in the next two years, we're screwed. For decades. But then, I'm not a SCOTUS....
-
No real money left to sign a kicker and any FA OL or any other FAs at this point, maybe $4MM or so? (after accounting for money to sign picks)
-
apparently the players don't want a pitch clock. They might lose money on their glove endorsements, I guess /s
-
I'm almost certain you missed some sarcasm....
-
In any event, I want a President that gets things done. Moves us forward. Brings his power to helping more liberals get elected all over the nation. Maybe that's a pipe dream...... Oh, and that can convince older liberal SCOTUS members o resign early in his term, so he can replace them. Sigh.
-
Is it saved? Income disparity is worse than ever. New jobs being created pay much less than the jobs we lost. I'm not sure this economy is sustainable, frankly. Not in a way people want anyway.
-
the union has already said it did not agree to the three batter minimum.....but on other things, yes, it's likely a good sign.
-
Of course, A LOT less players will be called up in September....... but, more than 1 player will get that extra roster spot, due to injuries and shuttling......It is an interesting trade off. IMO, more players get more real time in the majors, but less players get September time. The total number of days in the majors is probably similar, but they are spread among less players (though still more than 1 player per team).
-
Like I'm trying to say.....just winning the presidency isn't enough. I want a president that can help others get elected, so this doesn't happen again.
-
If the next democrat does nothing about healthcare, or tax rates (obama cut them, sigh), or student loan debt, or really doing something about the environmental damage we are causing......I liked Obama, but I'm not sure what his presidency accomplished. All we are doing is standing still (which, admittedly, is better than going backward).
-
Other than stopping stupid things this administration did from happening earlier, and some improvement in health insurance, what did Obama get us, exactly? Indeed, he may have gotten us Trump, as a reaction to him by certain parts of the electorate. If all we get is Obama lite, I'm not sure we've gotten much in terms of progress, just stopped a few things we don't like.
-
Including private loans? Because most students have both...... Maybe the government buys all private loans? I could get behind this for everyone, with additional relief for teachers (and others, as pointed out above).
-
I wan't to push left, but not at the expense of winning. I don't know what everyone else wants, I won't speak for their motives.....If Beto wants my vote, earn it by more than being "not Trump".
-
I'm not arguing for or against this, merely pointing out the argument it cuts terms by almost nothing was not factual at all.
-
Are you sure he can't win? I'm not. And, its a demeaning term applied to a huge swath of men and women who believe in him. Indeed, I think he might have won had he been the nominee, but maybe not. Are you sure Beto can? Or Klobuchar? Are you sure of anyone beating Trump, given the last election and how many will vote for him no matter what?
-
Less than 10K per year? Does she pay her own work related expenses too? I'm not saying that ballplayers don't make a choice....but there is a monopoly of 30 teams, rolling in billions of dollars virtually risk free, not paying employees. Did you know that non roster catchers get paid zero dollars in spring training? Working for major league teams that need someone to catch all the pitchers?
-
those are a trade off.....if you pay the same amount, you pay off 40% faster, about..... if you want to pay over the same period, well, I didn't look that up, but it's not hard to find calculators. But, I'd guess around 25% or maybe 30% less owed per year, if they recalculate payments, but keep the same term.
