    Miguel Sano has a major league arm.

    Seems odd, but if you're having trouble identifying your vegetable, this might help.

    You must be wealthy.

    Andrew McCutchen tore his ACL yesterday, out for the season.

    I think the Twins are better than the Indians, and no matter the result of this week's 3 game series, the better team will prove that over time. I think the Twins are very likely to be better than the Indians in 2020. The Indians have a good starting rotation, and will likely have one in 2020. But they don't have an everyday team that scares anyone. And with (apparently) not much money to spend, I don't think they have a good chance of having a good team on the field next year, either. So I don't particularly care what they do. The White Sox are probably a better team right now, and are even more likely to be better next year than the Indians. So let them sell, not sell, partially sell, buy, do both. Don't care. They're in the rear view mirror today, and for the near future, which is as far as I think you can look ahead in baseball.

    TINSTAAPP I would be reluctant to draft pitchers high, too, although I really liked that Rutledge kid. But I'm still underwhelmed by the bats they've drafted.

    He gonna shave the beard???

    Completely agree with the bolded. The rest, not so much. Every team in the majors has a shortstop or two. They have another 2 or 3 in the high minors. Just being a shortstop doesn't mean squat. In fact, it's an illustration of the folly that is WAR. Being a shortstop who can hit means a lot.

    If he doesn't hit, where he plays is irrelevant.

    I stated I'm no expert. And I'm underwhelmed by the Twins picks. They just picked a guy in the third round who is projected to perhaps be a utility player. It's an uninformed opinion, but I offer it anyway. For the record, you haven't changed my opinion.
  12. USAFChief
    One in a million.

    I'm with birdwatcher. I bet not one person on the Twins staff, or roster, including Sano, would buy that statement. No matter what Fangraphs says.
  14. USAFChief
    I'm no expert, but from afar, I couldn't be more underwhelmed with the Twins draft so far. 3rd rounder with no power who won't stay at SS? A reach at 13? WTF??

    Kevin was actually called up to the DBacks a couple weeks ago.

    We need the White Sox to sweep the Nats. Scherzer.

    apropos of nothing: LEN III is on KFAN right now. He was shocked to learn Jose Ramirez is batting .206 with 4 HRs. He initially refused to believe it, and ended with "I have to look that up." STrib Twins beat writer, schooled on the most basic of information about the Twins primary divisional competition...by PAUL ALLEN (who can't spell baseball) of all people. Good lord, shaking my head. If you want to know why nobody pays any attention to the STrib Twins coverage anymore, look no farther.

    Maybe if we ask nicely..."Hey, can you give us a Hand here?"
  19. USAFChief
    POST SOME PICS, AND THAT'S AN ORDER!! hahahahahahahahaha I kill me.

    https://www.mlb.com/video/wade-leblanc-in-play-run-s-to-yuli-gurriel The Mariners are...not good.

    WHY HASN'T THIS HAPPENED YET? WHAT ARE THEY WAITING FOR???
  24. USAFChief
    huh?
  25. USAFChief
    But those payments are his 2019-2021 salaries, not in addition to his 2019-21 salaries. from cot's baseball: salaries: 15:$10M, 16-18:$15M annually. 19-21:$35M annually 2019-21 salaries ($105M) deferred without interest, to be paid in seven $15M installments each July 1 from 2022 to 2028 https://legacy.baseballprospectus.com/compensation/cots/national-league/washington-nationals/ He has a $15M bonus coming in both 2020 and 2021, too, but I'm reasonably sure that would remain Washington's responsibility, as the signing team.
