    Is that nap before or after dinner at Sizzler?

    Lavelle

    jimmer replied to Obsvr's topic in Minnesota Twins Talk

    Not a big fan of LaVelle. I know he's well respected, but just not a fan. Berardino is much better, IMO.

    Is that like turning 46 years old? It's nice, but not quite 50 (post 1000) :-)
  4. jimmer
    Let's just take De Leon and Stewart and call it day. :-)

    Chris Rose from Intentional Talk tweeted this out just a few minutes ago: 'How do Cubs fans feel about Dexter Fowler going to the Cardinals. Big deal or just business. Let us know at Intentional Talk.'

    Santana has about 30M in surplus value. About half of what Dozier does.
  7. jimmer
    not according to every Cubs fan I know and have talked to this morning (about 20 of them or so:-)) One of the responses I can repeat is: 'Disgusting. Any team but them.'
  8. jimmer
    He could play OF, but he's a plus defender at 1B and would be our 1B of the future. Not sure you'd want him to full time start in the OF.
  9. jimmer
    De Leon should be in the the rotation NLT July. And yes, I'd put Alvarez at Ft Myers.
  10. jimmer
    I adjusted it (expounded really). read again :-) And I never suggested platooning as far as batting. He comes up mid season next year and is a constant in the lineup.
  11. jimmer
    THIS year? Split with 1B and DH with Mauer starting mid season (after team finally gives up on Vargas). Next year, probably full time 1B, Mauer splitting DH with Sano and us working in another 3B. Year after, Mauer is gone, Bellinger earns an All Star trip and Sano goes to DH.
  12. jimmer
    Um, remove Gibson, Remove Hughes, Remove Santiago, Duffey. Easy. Done. What's the next obstacle for getting DeLeon?
  13. jimmer
    wow, Cubs fans are going to go nuts. From loved player to intensely hated.
  14. jimmer
    already did
  15. jimmer
    I say it's a good call. It only matters if the actual trade happens with the players mentioned, IMO.
  16. jimmer
    He doesn't have the arm for 3B or LF IMO.
  17. jimmer
    If that's true, not sure why our FO even cares about the 3rd/4th guy. Take the two players and run before the Dodgers FO sobers up.

    I think having Palka ranked 9th has less to do with Jorge performance being that good and more to do with Palka striking out almost 40% of the time and getting on base less than 30% of the time. Big warning signs when that close to the majors (or really anytime, I guess). I don't have Palka in my top 10. Nor do I think we have a top 10 farm system (I was leery of it when we were being ranked higher and even more so now). I don't envision Palka having any kind of real MLB career.
  19. jimmer
    If the team exercises the option, it goes to 30M.
  20. jimmer
    Either way, he's worth more than Dozier. Eaton is younger, is going to get paid 38.4 M for the next 5 years. Even if you assume he'll play CF EVERY year of the next 5 (which I highly doubt), you're probably looking at a 3-3.5 WAR per year. So if we say 8M per WAR, and you figure an average of 3.25 WAR for 5 years, that's 130M. 130M minus 39 equals 91M of surplus. About 30M more than Dozier.
  21. jimmer
    Santana had more value at the deadline this year, but he still has real value now. Based on what some think Dozier is worth, Santana also isn't worth as much as some might think.
  22. jimmer
    huh? Obvious cause Riverbrian started the game thread? If so yeah. He's great at making them
  23. jimmer
    it was one started by Riverbrian. I know at one time we were talking about our favorite things that were green. :-)
  24. jimmer
    Paul Swydan from Fangraphs said that a reasonable return for Dozier is: 'De Leon and one of the non-Bellinger/Alvarez/Verdugo prospects.'Came Cameroron has said something similar. It's going to be awesome if we get Deleon and Bellinger/Alvarez. Just can't see it.

    This thread reminds me of a game thread we had this year where there was a TON of posts before the game was even close to starting.
