    Good point.

    It has something to do with attitude and to do everything to win today...right now. Tomorrow be damned.

    That's a deep statement. I read this several minutes ago and I'm still pondering it.

    The Guardians came out the best on these trades. Knocked the Twinkies right out of contention.

    Who wants to place a bet against this statement: In Kepler's walk year, he will suddenly discover how to hit the ball to the opposite field and raise his batting average 35 points above his career average and he'll hit 20 HR's and steal 10 bases, and he'll get a Covid vaccine.

    I too like Urshela at SS until one of the four youngsters (Lewis , Lee, Miller or Martin) moves him off.

    Pay Correa the money. Damn the torpedoes. Full speed ahead.

    Good point ashbury. Good point.

    Hrbek, Mattingly and Parker are not eligible for a Gold Glove this year.

    Take the recognition and say, "Thank you very much."

    Maybe someone in the TD family of experts can explain to the rest of us, how much different a person's life would be if he were paid 300 million instead of 200 million dollars? Just asking. How much is "enough"?

    Selected by managers and coaches. I'm impressed.
  13. tarheeltwinsfan
    Thanks Fire.

    Miller is extremely smooth and impressive at the SS position. Don't underestimate his ability to become a ML hitter. he is already a ML defender at SS.

    Can Gio play catcher and coach 3B when not at bat?

    Interesting article. So MLB is taking money from companies for advertising (encouraging the purchase and use of a product) cannabis products that the players will be suspended and/or fined for using? If true, MLB is certainly being hypocritical. Maybe, when the Minnesota Twins move to Las Vegas, the locally legal prostitution houses can be major advertisers. "Do what your favorite players do after a tense game of baseball. Visit "The House of the Rising Sun"." And on the way there be sure to take your Roman pills with you in case of ED problems. Wash down those pills with a six pack of Old Milwaukee. And bet for your Las Vegas Twins at your closest sports betting lobby at a Grand Casino. Children and adults, who have tv for a moral guide, are like rudderless ships.

    Would you, therefore, make a starter of Duran? It's tempting, but he sure does fit the role of a successful, shut-down closer.

    I was friends with Herm Starette, former pitching coach for the Braves, Phillies, Brewers, Giants, Orioles and bull pen coach for the Red Sox. I wish he were still alive, so I could ask him if it really is that simple. He was a really good guy. I miss talking with him.
  19. tarheeltwinsfan
    I'll take that job.
  20. tarheeltwinsfan
    I'm still scratching my head over that move.
  21. tarheeltwinsfan
    Agreed.
  22. tarheeltwinsfan
    Good point. Very good point.
  23. tarheeltwinsfan
    Who gave Sano a 30 million deal? How in the world could that have been justified at the time, given his track record for being out of shape and for getting into questionable circumstances? Anywho, I believe the author is on to something. Sign the young, good, proven, trouble- free players to early contracts and most will work out for the team's benefit. I like it.

    That is exactly what I am talking about. "Winning is he only thing"...is that really the measure of a good process. I agree that is true in war, but is it true in the entertainment sport of baseball. I really don't know. I'm just trying to determine the definition of success in a baseball team. Is it totally winning and only winning. If so, there can only be 1 successful major league team each year and the other 29 teams are failures/losers every year. That may be true for some of us, including me. If so, why do we (I) put our selves through this year after year. Why waste or precious and limited time on earth losing every year. That is the basis of my question. Do I really want to do this year after year and if so, why?

    Maybe they are turning down the job of pitching coach because they can earn more at other jobs and get to be home every night.
