  1. Stop it. He's put up a borderline elite OPS once, in 2019, in less than 300 PAs. Based on a ****load of walks and some all or nothing power. He's had 100 hits in a season ONCE. Never driven in 100 runs. Never scored 100 runs. Joey Gallo is not an elite hitter. Not close.
  2. One of these is named for beer. 'Nough said.
  3. You win the internets, good sir.
  4. Wait, wait, wait...is Terry Ryan back for a THIRD go-around???
  5. Extra credit for spelling it out instead of inserting the actual jpeg.
  6. He didn't hit a lot last year, although it was some ~80 OPS points higher than Celestino, but he'd been over .800 every year but one since 2016, and that was .795. He's also probably a better CFer than Gilbert.
  7. Towards the second deck in left, I wager.
  8. In a weird coincidence, I'm pushing 75 and can get my old pickup up to 57 with a stiff tailwind.
  9. Sir, I knew Butch Huskey, and you're no Butch Huskey.
  10. In all seriousness, Pollock isn't the worst idea for a 4th OFer I've ever heard. Way better than Celestino.
  11. I bet Butch would listen too, if we offered, say...3/$30m.
  12. "We have a lot of young arm talent that we’ll be looking at in Fort Myers,” said Falvey. “We Tried will be part of that mix, along with Part Of The Conversation and On The Shortlist" I think "In On" will be up and dominating by the All Star Break.
  13. Godzilla wasn't scared'a no Rodan!!
  14. "Carlos Rodon is still looking for a home..." C'mon. TD has to be better than this.
  15. Prett-tay cool. Prett-tay, prett-tay, prett-tay cool.
  16. Wanted to also add my sincere thanks to Mr Goin for his perspective. My perspective is the same as Yoda: There is no try. There is only do or not do.
  17. Why aren't TD owners/writers asking tough questions?
  18. See, I think Kyle Farmer was always plan A. Plan B was to be "in on" Carlos Correa.
  19. 8/250 will prolly end up getting us Correa too.
  20. I'm old enough to get that reference....but it's "real money" I believe.
  21. I don't want them to waste a pile of money on Swanson, and I ALWAYS want them to spend more. Swanson doesn't move the needle, IMO. He's going to get way overpaid. I have a feeling, though, the front office is feeling a lot of pressure and might make a desperate move. I'd sign JD Martinez for DH and whoever their staff feels are the 2 best relievers still available. If you can get something useful for Kepler, pull the trigger now. Pray for health, luck, and a weak ALC to keep them relevant. Blow it all up in July if it doesn't work.
  22. Not at all surprised Rodon to the Yankees, and not really disappointed he's not a Twin. I don't think he would have been a good gamble nor do I think it was realistic to think he would come here when he had other options. I don't think it makes sense to dump a ton of money into Swanson either. JD Martinez, and some serious bullpen help. Pray for health and help from the minors, and thwt 90 wins takes the ALC. And set about fixing the fact free agents don't want to come to Minnesota. Not sure how, but that's an issue.
  23. Might have to throw in Duensing to get any value.
  24. My musically inclined cousin, Carlos Santana-Roseannadanna.
