  1. 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
  2. AND if they were an improvement on our best starter at least one of them would be ready for a PROmotion by now...
  3. 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.
  4. Then wouldn't the prudent thing to have done been to start them at Cedar Rapids after the trade?
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. 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!!!
  8. His value might be as the starting SS next year until Lewis is ready to go.
  9. And the employee does not get paid if they quit. No more shady for the employee to quit than for the employer to fire.
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. And yet at the end of the day, Turner would probably still be a Dodger today..
  13. Teams with assets that contending teams desire are not trading for mid level bats.
  14. NO stat or analytic is indicative of true performance in and of itself
  15. "Batting average has long gone away as a stat indicative of true performance in and of itself." Unless we want to tout one of our guys for having a good one.
  16. Can't see moving both Martin AND Miller. Not with the uncertainty surrounding Correa and Lewis and the fact that Palacios will turn 26 in another month and hit only .208 in his first big league go around.
  17. Flexibility being code for minus defender at multiple positions.
  18. Ryan, Gray & even Bundy have been better, THUS FAR this season but if you're gonna use the "can't stay on the field" argument against Buxton you have to use it against them as well. I'll still take him.
  19. Still in first. The sky might NOT be falling. It's baseball. Stuff that shouldn't happen happens all the time. Ask the Dodgers about the Pirates coming to town.
  20. Could have had Buxton AND Berrios for less than someone (else) will probably give Correa after this season. Gonna take a lot more than we've seen from Martin and Woods-Richardson to top that.
  21. Enjoy Smeltzer's performance now cuz after 101 pitches I'm fairly certain his arm will fall off....
  22. Would probably prefer Susac given the dearth of catching depth in the organization. Not an O's fan but cool to see them draft a first rate prospect named Brooks.
