    He's a better stick than Urshela.
  2. dxpavelka
    Actually Plan B was one of the first things they did this off-season. Farmer will be one of the top 5 bats in this lineup.
  3. dxpavelka
    He pretty much willed the Giants to 107 wins in 2021.
  4. dxpavelka
    Works for me. So do the Easter Bunny & Santa Claus.
  5. dxpavelka
    Farmer will slot in as the best stick on this team not named Buxton, Polanco, Miranda or Arraez. Solid defensively.
  6. dxpavelka
    Wait? A player used a team as a stepping stone for bigger and better things? Say it ain't so. Next thing you know a team will do the same to a player.
  7. dxpavelka
    My hope is that Kirilloff & Larnach are still healthy by Patriots Day.
  8. dxpavelka
    The two go hand in hand.

    Always love someone who is an expert at spending other people's money. I call mine my wife.
  10. dxpavelka
    Dude, if you're gonna run with this lead at least throw some names at us.
  11. dxpavelka
    Pina to Oakland as well.
  12. dxpavelka
    I agree. Actually, now that the answer is Vasquez, I wouldn't, if the price was right, wouldn't be opposed to retaining Sanchez as a third option / DH. Can never have too many bats.
  13. dxpavelka
    Totally agree but how would you like to be the Vikings. You play in a leageu with the perfect model of a balanced league with parity. And yet you're stuck in the middle of mediocrity for perpetuity until you actually fix your QB situation. At least the Twins MIGHT sign Correa. Or trade for Omar Narvaez.
  14. dxpavelka
    Well, the name I keep hearing on TD is Omar Narvaez so at least the bar isn't set to high.
  15. dxpavelka
    I love when folks make such a good case for the other team to trade for a guy that it would appear foolish for us to do so.
  16. dxpavelka
    You heard wrong.
  17. dxpavelka
    I'll go Josh Winder.
  18. dxpavelka
    Speculation would just move on to the next item on the agenda. Probably both pitching and catching help.
  19. dxpavelka
    Highly doubt he peaks at 20 plus home runs. MAYBE 10. Yes, he's a very good hitter and won a batting title. He won a batting title with an OPS under .800. That's hard to do. Hell, D.J. LaMahieu won the batting title two years ago, hit only 10 home runs and had an OPS over 1.000. He hits for average. He does that very well. Little power and average defense at multiple positions. I might be a dinosaur in that I still respect batting average as a stat but he's also no Rod Carew or Tony Gwynn. If you can get high end pitching for him, ya gotta consider it.
  20. dxpavelka
    And we know with 100% certainty that EVERY person currently on the 40 man will end up being a star. GUARANTEED. Should set us up nicely to win the next eight World Series. Think I'll start a World Series parade supply business.
  21. dxpavelka
    You're right. Half the league didn't pick anyone. That doesn't make half the league smart. 96% of the league won't win the World Series next year.
  22. dxpavelka
    Kepler's not going to bring much in return. He's likely worth more to us than he is to others. Others don't have to worry about the Larnachs and Kirilloffs of the world being on the IL by Patriots Day.
  23. dxpavelka
    Just because "they didn't see anyone" doesn't mean "they" are right. You keep saying we'd have to waive guys to make Rule 5 picks. Not true at all. Just need to take them off the 40 man. Or not add them to the 40 man. Again, shouldn't be a problem. Unless our fringe guys are so much better than other teams' fringe guys that ours will get taken and theirs ain't worth taking. IF that were the case, we'd be celebrating another World Series win or ten.
  24. dxpavelka
    The other guys are no more in the business of getting fleeced on trades than we are.
  25. dxpavelka
    Not my job to make those decisions. But I can tell you one thing for certain. There are guys on the current 40 man, probably a hand full of them who we'll look back a year from now and wonder why the hell they were there. That's the job of the guys who get paid to do this. They should be able to do it. Besides, as you and others are want to point out, it's probably not that big a deal who is on or not on the 40 man, I mean nobody's taking the guys who aren't anyway. Right?
