    I'd love to see us offer him a longer term deal but nothing more than 5 years.
  2. dxpavelka
    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. dxpavelka
    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. dxpavelka
    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.

    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. dxpavelka
    Mahle, Ryan, Gray

    Been saying for weeks that fans would either be underwhelmed with deadline moves or stunned at the cost. Glad we're not underwhelmed.

    Had they offered him the contract he signed in Toronto I have no reason he would not have signed it here.

    At no point have there been 9 guys healthier and hitting better than Urshela and Sanchez.
  10. dxpavelka
    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.
  11. dxpavelka
    Liam Hendricks was at one time a waiver wire pickup. Relievers are fickle. Many /most? are failed starters.
  12. dxpavelka
    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.
  13. dxpavelka
    Four guys who can help and didn't give up Lewis, Canterino, Woods-Richardson, Martin, Wallner, Jose Rodriguez, Balazovic or Varland.
  14. dxpavelka
    I remember a significant number of fans who didn't care for Mauer and he DID hit.
  15. dxpavelka
    Fairly impressed with how they did in spite of all the pressure and the talent that had previously flown off the board.
  16. dxpavelka
    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.
  17. dxpavelka
    I thought we fixed our lack of top 100 guys when we traded Berrios....
  18. dxpavelka
    And yet remain in first place..
  19. dxpavelka
    German Marquez? Might the return be some thing like Encarnacion-Strand & Canterino?
  20. dxpavelka
    Would Encarnancion-Strand and Canterino do the trick?
  21. dxpavelka
    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.
  22. dxpavelka
    Teams with something worth trading for aren't looking for hitting prospects.
  23. dxpavelka
    Teams in contention would be all over Kepler if we were so inclined.
  24. dxpavelka
    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.
  25. dxpavelka
    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.
