    Technically, I believe Ryan will still be a rookie in 2022 so, problem solved....
  2. dxpavelka
    Walls doesn't do much for me. Hit .211 last year and projected for maybe .235 this year. I'd sooner let some of our own youngsters get their feet wet at the big league level for that kind of production.
  3. dxpavelka
    I was hoping for something I didn't already know. Maybe I know too much.
  4. dxpavelka
    agree
  5. dxpavelka
    the past does nothing for us
  6. dxpavelka
    I'm not interested in past performance.

    Sure we don't know what Royce Lewis is. But we also don't wait for him for 4 years and then move him before we find out.

    A .779 OPS wins AL MVP..... Return of the deadball era?

    They beat him like he stole something in this deal. Maybe. Most guys who sign a long term extension play out like Mauer and Pujols. They outproduce their contracts prior to hitting free agency. For the most part they earn their money during the first part of their long term extensions and on the back half of those contracts they are an albatross on the back of the team. Buxton's gonna be a little different. Essentially, for the next seven years his pay is likely to mirror his production. We should be lauding Falvine on this one. And yet, Buxton has the potential to make $23.5 million in any given year. If he does in any year, everyone wins.

    I'm hearing there are PA bonuses too starting at half a million for 502 and going up in half million increments topping out at $2.5 million for 625 PA
  11. dxpavelka
    He's not making any contract demands. He's simply willing to take the best offer made to him. Sadly, the local nine appears unlikely to be the team that will make that offer.
  12. dxpavelka
    Sadly, we're going to be sitting here 15 months from now and Buxton will be elsewhere and he and Berrios will have signed new deals elsewhere for a combined amount less than Carlos Corea will be playing for and we'll be "hoping" for prospects to pan out.

    Don't recall saying anything about Simmons rebounding to any major league average. Just don't think Goodrum is going to give you anything that's going to elevate the play of the team.
  14. dxpavelka
    Highly unlikely to get more production from Goodrum than from Simmons.
  15. dxpavelka
    Since the Tigers just did the opposite of that that would seem unlikely. Minor League deal maybe. And the Tigers are a team looking to take the next step. Shouldn't we be doing the same?
  16. dxpavelka
    Then put Gordon as SS for the first half of 2022, or resign Simmons (far more likely to bounce back offensively than Goodrum is to suddenly become Derek Jeter) push your cards to the middle of the table and call it good.
  17. dxpavelka
    Not sure that bringing in a career .230 whose presence would mostly serve to block guys like Lewis, Martin, Gordon and maybe even Cavaco, Soularie & Steer would accomplish.
  18. dxpavelka
    Braves and Astros thrived with below average catching because they had World Series caliber teams surrounding them. Not sure that applies here.
  19. dxpavelka
    Seems a village has lost its idiot.......
  20. dxpavelka
    Gonna be a lot of pissed off Twins fans when we realize we could have kept both Buxton & Berrios for less than Carlos Correa's gonna get from someone.
  21. dxpavelka
    We'll soon be looking up and seeing that Buxton & Berrios are both signed to long term extensions for a combined total of less than Carlos Correa. And we'll be HOPING that a prospect pans out. Good Luck.
  22. dxpavelka
    If the offer isn't $125 Million, Buxton's not staying here. Gonna be a sad day when we look up and see that we could have kept both Buxton & Berrios for less than Carlos Correa will sign for.
  23. dxpavelka
    Stroman's not signing here for 5 years $100 million any more than Buxton's re-signing here for 5 years $84 million. Unreasonable free agent expectations are a waste of time.
  24. dxpavelka
    If they've never struggled, they've already broken out.
  25. dxpavelka
    So what you're saying is to go get a guy who is basically Simmons without the Gold Glove. AND give something other than cash up for him. I dunno.
