  1. Call me crazy, but I'm just going to make this prediction anyway: the 2022 Minnesota Twins will NOT break the all time MLB record for strikeouts in a season.
  2. Finally, someone picks the low hanging fruit.
  3. And followed by a couple of overpriced beers!
  4. Spoiler alert: Huge chip in for Scheffler at the 3rd.
  5. Call me crazy, but no ketchup, mustard, relish, or onions. Just the bun mashed into a soggy coating. 2 of em. The best.
  6. I'm sorry, but that doesn't make sense. You'd trade for Manaea then, not deplete your 2022 bullpen.
  7. But that's not this "asset management" claptrap. It's assembling the best team possible by getting the best players possible, for the current year. They didn't view Maeda as "value" due to being a starter "with team control." They viewed Graterol as the better asset because a shutdown reliever means more. Kimbrel is more of the same. They want the guy with more impact on Ws and Ls. They're not playing for "rotation depth" in 2024.
  8. Nitpic: I made the comment when they signed Colome, not after the season started.
  9. They're serious about contending. They don't make this trade. And they sure as **** don't do "asset management." They collect the best possible players they can, each and every year. Did they trade the expiring contract of Kenley Jansen last spring?
  10. When I'm holding pocket aces and you're holding 5-7 off preflop, our odds are not the same. Not even close. That's a terrible analogy, as you don't know the flop before it happens. (And you won't see the flop anyway. You'll have folded to my raise.) And the Dodgers, Twins, and Pitates don't have equal "preflop" Odds either. They're not each "1 in 30." The Twins might end up outflopping the ALC or WC teams, but their odds are long and got a little longer by trading Rogers.
  11. They didn't give up any runs. but I wouldn't say they were "fine."
  12. I say again, a team serious about competing in 2022 doesn't trade Rogers.
  13. "Closers are overrated. Anyone can get three outs."
