    I have always been sceptical of the idea the Twins would go with a 4 man rotation to start the season. They haven't in the past, nor have many other teams. As for Hughes, IMO a starting gig was always going to be his to lose in ST.

    Lance Lynn: Greatest Twins pitcher of this decade, or greatest all time?
  3. USAFChief
    yup, platoons are virtually extinct.

    I would have preferred the Arrieta deal, but it’s close, and even I understand committing $75m is a lot different than committing $12m. They’ve done quite a remarkable makeover of the pitching staff. That’s enough.

    No you didn’t.

    92 wins. ALC champions. I have been unimpressed with Falvine, but I have to admit they have really done an excellent job of adding talent and depth this offseason. No big “signature” move, but the aggregate is impressive.

    In addition to the points raised by others about the minor money involved, it’s not even the middle of March. There is no train wreck yet.

    This is not Terry Ryan's team any more, for sure.

    Wasted??!?!????!! ******* AWESOME!

    THE TWINS SIGNED ARRIETTA???!!?!!! SUH-WEEEEETTTTTT!!!
  11. USAFChief
    You sure about that?

    I think you mean "median." A bit below median.
  13. USAFChief
    Wow. So not true. I have fingers.

    Two things I do not have in common with trilobites: 1. Trilobites are extinct. 2. Trilobites do not have the power to ban people.

    So far I give an unqualified thumbs up to "eggs."

    Yes, Park Byung Ho. My bad. He renegotiated his MLB contract. The point being, while I certainly agree Hughes is very unlikely to want to, he certainly could choose to renegotiate if he wanted. And the union would almost certainly discourage it, but they can’t prevent it. MLB contracts are guaranteed in that neither side can alter the deal, unless both sides agree. Like most legal contracts, I presume.

    Among the few things Sano has in common with a glacier.
  18. USAFChief
    Did Kim Byung Ho renegotiate?
  19. USAFChief
    If the instructions were too long to read, how do you know they were sorry?
  20. USAFChief
    There’s never a never?

    I don’t think Dozier has the arm to play third. He struggles as it is.

    But can you volunteer for a game thread or three? And I'm at stage 3, btw, where you no longer care about either stage 1 or 2.
  24. USAFChief
    you've spent this entire thread spelling out your concerns about Buxton, but can't understand why he might be tempted by guaranteed life changing money? He will consider it for the same reason the Twins will, but from opposite sides. Both will accept a guarantee of less than possible-if everything goes right--and more than possible--if some goes wrong. He might end up underpaid, or overpaid. But he gets paid, and the Twins risk an acceptable amount and might get a bargain. Find that number and do it.
  25. USAFChief
    Get this done before it becomes difficult/impossible. This is a no brainer.
