  1. I'd love to see us offer him a longer term deal but nothing more than 5 years.
  2. I see Verlander taking a short term deal with someone but don't see the Astros allowing that team to be anyone but the Astros.
  3. Unless the starter with a year and a half of team control that you traded away for two guys stuck in AA signs a contract that he would have jumped at had YOU offered it to him.......
  4. So wrong. Seems like only a year ago we traded away our best starter for a couple of AA guys who remain AA guys to this day. Somebody's gotta get fired for this week.
  5. Prospects are suspects until they're not. I've said for weeks that most fans would either be underwhelmed by what happens at the deadline or stunned at the cost. Not underwhelmed.
  6. Been saying for weeks that fans would either be underwhelmed with deadline moves or stunned at the cost. Glad we're not underwhelmed.
  7. Had they offered him the contract he signed in Toronto I have no reason he would not have signed it here.
  8. At no point have there been 9 guys healthier and hitting better than Urshela and Sanchez.
  9. You've isolated the problem. At no point have there been nine guys healthier and hitting better than Sanchez & Urshela. This ain't rocket science.
  10. Liam Hendricks was at one time a waiver wire pickup. Relievers are fickle. Many /most? are failed starters.
  11. Not quite sure what world Urshela & Sanchez can be called second stringers in. OK, technically Jeffers has caught two more games than Sanchez but, counting DH, Sanchez has 92 more PA than Jeffers so I'm going to go out on a limb and say that Sanchez is NOT a second stringer.
  12. Four guys who can help and didn't give up Lewis, Canterino, Woods-Richardson, Martin, Wallner, Jose Rodriguez, Balazovic or Varland.
  13. I remember a significant number of fans who didn't care for Mauer and he DID hit.
  14. Fairly impressed with how they did in spite of all the pressure and the talent that had previously flown off the board.
  15. Totally agree. Said the day we traded him that we'd find ourselves looking for what we just moved. We got two AA guys for him who remain AA guys to this day. Maybe they'll eventually pan out. Also a pretty good chance that Berrios will return to form as well. We could have had him and Buxton for half what the Padres will end up giving Juan Soto.
  16. I thought we fixed our lack of top 100 guys when we traded Berrios....
  17. German Marquez? Might the return be some thing like Encarnacion-Strand & Canterino?
  18. Would Encarnancion-Strand and Canterino do the trick?
  19. Sellers are always looking for pitching and buyers are always looking for pitching AND bats. Strong chance some contender looks at Kepler the way the Braves looked at Rosario a year ago. With Adam Duvall out for the year that team COULD be the Braves. Of course they're not likely inclined to give up arms that could help us down the stretch.
  20. Teams with something worth trading for aren't looking for hitting prospects.
  21. Teams in contention would be all over Kepler if we were so inclined.
  22. It's the Twins so draw your own conclusions on that. We move four other pieces last year and got one guy who has thus far helped and a few others that have not yet advanced.
  23. Marlins weren't giving up Alcantara. If they were they'd have had a line from here to Miami of teams looking to make that move and would have gotten far more than we would have offered for him. And they didn't move him so that says a lot about what their intentions were to make such a move.
