  1. concur. They most certainly got better in 2019 tonight. Your move, Falvine.
  2. Puig will be appearing at Target Field. Kepler will be crushed to hear this news.
  3. From your lips keyboard to their ears eyes. That would be pretty acceptable. I'd love to add another reliever. Let's use the top of the minor leagues to get Felipe Vasquez from Pittsburgh. Here through 2023, if you want. Lewis for Vasquez.
  4. The news says he signed a Major League deal, no? They did potentially save a few bucks though on salary. Probably paying pro-rated MLB minimum, instead of what was left on Parker's $1.8M?? deal. Parker and/or agent must have had an idea he'd be signed, else I can't imagine he would have refused the Rochester assignment, forfeiting the remainder of his salary.
  5. Mebbe in MA, but not AZ. State law. AZ Revised Statues 5-395.04 a(3)
  6. Play well, and it's a team the Twins will beat. But don't play well, and the Marlins are a MLB team that can, and will, beat you.
  7. Highly rated like Jason Tyner taking DH ABs in the post season?
  8. consider the possibility the Blue Jays didn't demand Lewis/Kirilloff.
  9. Consider me skeptical over the "Mets want Buxton!!1!" report from LENIII. It's LENIII. I know I'm in the minority, but I'd deal Lewis before he becomes Gordon.
  10. Put me in the "skeptical" category over the Buxton report. That sounds pretty "PR-ish" to me.
  11. more catchers interference than hits. You cant make this stuff up.
  12. which professional scouts do the Fangraphs ratings, again?
  13. a lot of "he needs 40 man protection this winter" posts. Maybe, maybe not. He hasn't the past two winters. Not at all sure he'd last on a MLB roster next year. He's having a bounceback season, for sure, but is he ready to be a position player on a 26 man roster, all season? Dunno. And for the record, I like the Romo deal. He's a bullpen upgrade, for sure. There just needs to be more.
  14. Just for the record, everyone is aware this winter would be Diaz's third in a row of rule 5 eligibility, right? He's been eligible for the past 2 years.
  15. According to the PPress, Parker elected free agency.
  16. I cant imagine a scenario where the Twins trade Buxton this winter. Maybe Rosario, but that's pretty remote too, I'd think.
  17. I wonder why the Mets would be trying to trade Syndergaard, but unless the FO is aware of some medical issue, this is the type of pitcher you spend major prospect capital to acquire. Just too rare, and too potentially impactful not to. With control, and no burdensome contract to deal with.
  18. His appearances all blur together for me, so much so that I can’t pick one specific moment.
  19. In a late July where every contender is looking for pen help, not one single team thought Blake Parker was worth $600k. This is a guy who the Twins sent out with an 8th inning lead the night before.
  20. who was traded in the past couple offseasons, similar to Stroman, at similar cost? Get players when and where you can. And he could be most likely be flipped at next years deadline if need be.
  21. protest never filed. https://www.bostonglobe.com/sports/redsox/2019/07/25/red-sox-protest/WnS1KwUJfBR4kQtFyfQ3mN/story.html?p1=HP_TrendingBar
  22. why? If they can make their 2020 and or later teams better, why sit out the deadline? They can do both...trade off expiring contracts, and acquire controllable assets. And to repeat...arms like Syndergaard aren't a available every day.
  23. you never know how these things turn out. It might be that the player to be named later is David Arias, later named David Ortiz.
