    I doubt it. It's well known Fangraphs hates the Twins.
  2. USAFChief
    Concur.
  3. USAFChief
    posthumously.

    Local moderator debates telling TDers the Jays have signed Jose Bautista to a 3 day contract ... guess which 3 days?
  5. USAFChief
    no, having someone like Pressly wouldn't change that one game. But it would have a large chance of affecting the numerous 1, 2, and 3 run games upcoming between now and the end of July. There'll be plenty of them, and not many 10 run games, I wager. We are under new management. I hope "trades dont happen yet, because that's the way its always been done" is a relic of the past, along with many of the other relics we needed to out behind us.

    Players rarely crash. They taper off, and there's been little to no taper from Cruz in recent years. It was reasonable to expect him to be pretty close to his most recent 3 years.
  7. USAFChief
    yes.
  8. USAFChief
    Winnah!

    They also can't be Mauer and passively watch strike after strike....take a hack at the fat hanging breaking ball over the middle of the plate, and try to pull it into the seats. They might not be one pitcher away, but one pitcher puts them one pitcher closer. It doesn't have to be a pitcher for only this year, either. That's what Houston saw in Pressly...an asset in a contending year, and an asset going forward for nothing but money, if they chose to do so. I doubt they regret weakening their A level teams. If you're not going to try to take advantage of this situation, when?
  10. USAFChief
    ...plus one.
  11. USAFChief
    This **** is FUN!
  12. USAFChief
    What? I don't understand this.
  13. USAFChief
    If the Twins are in contention, they're not going to trade Reed or Pineda if they are contributing. If the Twins aren't in contention, who cares. If Reed or Pineda aren't contributing, they might be released, but they have zero trade value. I also strongly doubt they trade Castro, if in contention.
  14. USAFChief
    Castro. As expected.
  15. USAFChief
    Haven't three of those four changed their opinion?
  16. USAFChief
    I think someone should make me read this every time I'm feeling a little sorry for myself over some relatively minor trouble or another. I can't even imagine the pain of something like this. Ballplayers have lives outside of work, like the rest of us. https://www.theplayerstribune.com/en-us/articles/rich-hill-mlb-dodgers
  17. USAFChief
    So in other words, you have changed your mind and agree with me now.
  18. USAFChief
    Zero chance, if they are in "win now" mode, that Gibson gets traded at the deadline. Zero. Zip. Zilch. Same for May. I guess I could see a scenario where Castro goes for MLB pitching, but not for A ball pitcher(s). None.
  19. USAFChief
    none of this makes much sense. They'll make win now moves that dont yield major league pitching? Make win now moves by trading starting pitching?
  20. USAFChief
    Nice to be remembered, man!
  21. USAFChief
    For next week, too.
  22. USAFChief
    Don't panic, Give it time. When the weather warms, they'll pick up the pace.
  23. USAFChief
    yes.
  24. USAFChief
    indeed. I had the Twins a game ahead of the Rays for best record in baseball.
  25. USAFChief
    Winnah!
