    Every organization needs a big toe!!

    I think you're exaggerating. I don't remember anyone wanting to run Morneau out of town. And Buxton wasn't even the best player on the Twins in the second half of 2017 (that was Dozier), much less all of MLB.
  3. USAFChief
    To each his own. I'm not giving them a pass on not spending, just because it makes for more pleasant conversation. I'm not going to pretend I think it's ok, or it presents some sort of reasonable obstacle. They have no excuse. They have oodles of money available.

    I don't think Adrianza is an "upgrade" over Brock Holt or Neil Walker. YMMV.
  5. USAFChief
    It's not "ruining the offseason" that bothers me. It's ruining the 2019 on-season. It's going to be a long summer if "we can't afford it" is the team's response to every free agent signing or big contract traded.
  6. USAFChief
    Please do.
  7. USAFChief
    I don't understand how this hasn't already happened.
  8. USAFChief
    As I recall, you pitched a fit, too. Tore up in internets.
  9. USAFChief
    This is the reward for your much balleyhooed mid summer sell off. We had such a guy, but I guess we needed more minor league depth instead. You and I can watch him in Phoenix.

    Adrianza is another position that needs upgrading on the Twins roster. He isnt awful, but "isnt awful" is by definition in need of upgrade, if you're trying to be better than middle of the ALC. How about finding a guy who is better than that as the futility infielder?
  11. USAFChief
    Blechhhhhhhh
  12. USAFChief
    The missing strategy seems to be "signed good help."
  13. USAFChief
    Yeahhhhhh...this right here is where this whole post fell apart.
  14. USAFChief
    what do the analytics say?
  15. USAFChief
    I’m guessing Austin stays as the DH.
  16. USAFChief
    I think your argument should be with Falvey/Levine, no? They told us they were trying to sign Darvish.
  17. USAFChief
    It’s not “MN.” It’s Levine, or Falvey, that committed. And I think that was pretty much a done deal when they claimed him.
  18. USAFChief
    To the minute, apparently. Consistency....the hobgoblin of small minds.
  19. USAFChief
    You can never fail when your goal is always three years from today.
  20. USAFChief
    concur. Concurconcurconcur.
  21. USAFChief
    It’s because playing infield is miles more difficult than outfield. Converting fly balls into outs is child’s play compared to ground balls.
  22. USAFChief
    I’m ok with Romero to the pen. I guess if they’re putting Cron at first, some ABs for Kepler at first against righties wouldn’t be the worst idea. But leave May where he is, and everyone needs to take a deep breath on Astudillo.
  23. USAFChief
    Concur.
  24. USAFChief
    That's all well and good, if you believe WAR actually tells you anything. If you believe Cruz, coming off three consecutive seasons of .900+ OPS prior to last years .850 is only a little better hitter than Cron, coming off three part time years of .700+ OPS's the three prior years. Or if you're trying to win the WAR/$ championship, rather than the WS.
  25. USAFChief
    Bingo.
