    4th place and yet only a game and a half behind the local nine.

    Buxton might deserve to start over Stanton but Yordan Alvarez blows them both away so that whole argument is pointless. Also love how baseball stat geeks spend hours telling me how batting average is an outdated stat until it's the main selling point for one of ours. I'll take lil' Vlad six ways to Sunday. Both are deserving of reserve spots although, as much as I love Buxton as a player, I can name at least a half a dozen guys more deserving based solely on his games played or lack thereof.

    Seems a LOT like the type of guy sellers are going to be looking for when we call about big league arms to help us down the stretch.

    Better win now because you just traded away any chance of doing so 2-5 years from now.
  5. dxpavelka
    half a season does not a season make. p.s. Might want to take a look at his last two starts as well.
  6. dxpavelka
    What you seem to be saying is that Berrios' team wins more games because they are a better team. Hard to be the better team when you best players are playing for the other guys. Bottom line is that as this point in time we have gotten NOTHING in return for Berrios. Can't call that a win. In the future. Maybe. Maybe not. That's probably why they'll continue to play the games.
  7. dxpavelka
    I'm assuming you've seen us play. That should answer you question.
  8. dxpavelka
    Coulda, woulda, shoulda. Didn't.
  9. dxpavelka
    The fact that we don't yet have him might indicate just that.....
  10. dxpavelka
    Not at all interested in the past or the present. Championships will be won in the future.

    One of these pitcher's team is 6-8 in games he starts and the other is 11-5. I'll take the guy whose team is 11-5 in games he starts and let you figure out which is which.
  12. dxpavelka
    Everyone thinks we need to go out and get a pitcher. The chances of getting one better than Berrios are minimal.
  13. dxpavelka
    Great idea until you get past the deadline and realize you still need a bat just as much as relief help.
  14. dxpavelka
    He's a veteran pitcher who has shown in the past and most likely will show again in the future what he's made of. We need pitching and he's a pitcher who can be very good. Makes plenty of sense to complain about not having him.

    A contender can always use another bat. Fans don't often realize this until deep in the post-season. See: Braves: Atlanta: 2021: Rosario: Eddie

    AND if they were an improvement on our best starter at least one of them would be ready for a PROmotion by now...
  17. dxpavelka
    I actually don't think it had anything to do with Johnson's departure. Staff ERA since Johnson's departure is 2.19. I don't think that has anything to do with Johnson's departure either.
  18. dxpavelka
    Then wouldn't the prudent thing to have done been to start them at Cedar Rapids after the trade?
  19. dxpavelka
    C'mon. We're not really blaming whether Gray was sharp or not sharp today on who the pitching coach was. Are we? We're smarter than that. He's a grown man.
  20. dxpavelka
    Better than what? Eleven months in and neither has advanced beyond the milb level they were at when the deal went down. Convince me when actual empirical evidence exists.
  21. dxpavelka
    Yeah, no more than two of the four guys you mentioned and a couple lower level prospects. STARTING the conversation at those four guys isn't a GOD father offer it's a GRAND father offer, as in YOU KIDS GET OFF MY GRASS!!!
  22. dxpavelka
    His value might be as the starting SS next year until Lewis is ready to go.
  23. dxpavelka
    And the employee does not get paid if they quit. No more shady for the employee to quit than for the employer to fire.
  24. dxpavelka
    Same way the Twins could choose to fire him (or any other staff member) before the end of the regular season. Might be different if he were leaving for another big league club, unless a promotion were involved.
  25. dxpavelka
    I'm usually more in favor of not moving guys than in bringing the same guys back but would not be averse to this move.
