    Do. Not. Like.

    I'm totally on board with this. Come spring, I'll be able to say "I tried."
  3. USAFChief
    I can't even believe people want to change the role of the Twins only highly successful pitcher.
  4. USAFChief
    I don't know if the "Isola lobbing popups back to the pitcher thing" is disqualifying, but it's ANNOYING AS HELL!! Who was the catcher (white sox?) that used to triple clutch and then soft toss back to the pitcher every time? I CANT WATCH THAT! Anywho, Martin is fast and Julien looks very hitterish. The pitchers....we had to send SOMEbody, I guess.
  5. USAFChief
    We could have Herr AND Brunansky. And Pete Townshend. A "Tommy" revival.
  6. USAFChief
    Isola, Olsen, Julien.
  7. USAFChief
    Bently in action Thursday night.

    they couldn't know both LCS would be done already, and Fri-Sat-Mon-Tue-Wed-Fri-Sat works on many levels. You have to schedule the WS ahead of time.

    This offseason is the perfect example of why "wait till you are a player short to spend on a free agent" is folly. $60m to spend and exactly one top free agent pitcher worth pursuing, and even he's had a history of injury. There's nobody to spend it on. Sign talent whenever you can.
  10. USAFChief
    Prolly more like $70m. Correa $35, Sanchez $10, Rodon $25. I'd drop Sanchez and find a different option, but even with him $70m is completely within possibilities.
  11. USAFChief
    Settling for this type of player is exactly what also-rans do.
  12. USAFChief
    In what way would signing Correa prevent the Twins from developing those same players?
  13. USAFChief
    It ****** me off to no end watching Pressley pitch for the Astros.
  14. USAFChief
    What angst?
  15. USAFChief
    Gleaned from the interwebs: in their last 55 postseason games against teams other than the Minnesota Twins, the NYY are 22-33.
  16. USAFChief
    So the World Series should be a best of 163 series?
  17. USAFChief
    Me too. "Throw strikes. ... But don't give 'em anything to hit. ... Questions?"
  18. USAFChief
    That's pretty generous. Celestino is worthless. You can find 100 Celestinos in the minors. Most of them might even be able to run the bases. And hoping that someday, Alcala can become what Pressley already is, is the definition if a failed trade.

    1st of all, all of baseball dealt with the pandemic and missed seasons. 2nd, if somehow the Twins were damaged more by missing 2020 than the other 29 teams, shouldn't Falvine have accounted for that, rather than count on prospects who weren't going to pan out because reasons? 3rd, all of baseball dealt with the pandemic and missed seasons.
  20. USAFChief
    You don't need to watch much postseason baseball to understand how much better these bullpens are than what the Twins have. It's clear as day.
  21. USAFChief
    Ahem...
  22. USAFChief
    We don't have any version of Royce Lewis until midseason, at which point he's most likely not any kind of answer at SS. And Iglesias is only "league average" if we're talking the International League.
  23. USAFChief
    Signing Iglesias to play SS is roughly the equivalent of signing Matt Shoemaker to be in your rotation. It'll do nothing to help you win, but somebody has to stand out there.
  24. USAFChief
    I think I hate the Dodgers more than the Yankees.
  25. USAFChief
    Derrick? Derrick Falvey? Is that you?
