  1. Good thing they played with a short bench! No one could have seen this coming with the history of this FO.....
  2. You can think what you want. I'm merely pointing out what others are saying. But it's hard to believe anyone thinks including a negative asset didn't decrease the return.
  3. I'd trade him. I think the owners pocket the money, and I think he could be good again, but I think he could decline. This team isn't winning with old guys, and maybe if they get rid of CC, they'll go young everywhere. Which also might not work! But it might discourage the France type signing..... I'm just done with this core.
  4. People on these boards have posted the data. The twins are middle of the pack in innings, in the minors and majors. I have no interest in crunching the numbers myself.
  5. I mean, the national media is saying they got less back because they included dobnak.....
  6. Complaining they are giving young guys an opportunity, while also calling for them to sell does seem like an odd choice. Agreed.
  7. Good thing I live inland! Let's hope nothing actually happens. I can't take much more news.
  8. I mean, this game is likely over. Save the good pitchers that aren't traded.
  9. These are excellent questions. It does not appear there is a consistent strategy here.
  10. Whichever gets you the better players back....though if I wanted to keep the best one, I'd keep Duran. As you point out, Duran is going to be much more expensive the next two years than Jax.....Much.
  11. It better not. Why would the Twins worry about winning games at this point?
  12. Who could have predicted Buxton goin on the IL, and the team voluntarily playing short two games?
  13. Because most of them are pitchers....and the hitters aren't all that good. The few hitters they have that others want are good, not great, players with a couple months left on their deals. At positions where other teams have injuries or bad players. I mean, if I had a car with no engine, but three tires, I might be able to sell the tires.....
  14. Ryan for Anthony from Boston. Who says no?
  15. That's a different argument, and I'm not disagreeing (though I'm not sure 3 years ago).
  16. The Red Sox have better players......I'm not sure what the Twins best lineup is, frankly. With Buxton and Jeffers out, there aren't that many sure fire MLB players on the roster (not starting Bader was odd).
  17. I can't say! I'm only going off the work others here have done. I used to go into this much depth, but I lost interest in doing the work myself......... In any event, I don't think the issue here is number of innings. I think it is injuries and good and bad performance. This team has 6 SP (if you count number 5s) even after dealing Paddock. There are systems w/o 4.....I'm not really sure what people expect, realistically, in terms of depth. Would I like to see Raya go more innings? Or Matthews or Morris or Ohl? Yes, yes I would. Am I sure that would be a good idea? No. Last year Matthews threw 134 innings, btw.....Festa 124.....SWR 133.
