    The Angels have 2 MLB players, and the Twins only have 1 (!!!!!!) The Twins lost ANOTHER trade! http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m8oa1wxBd91r44jtbo1_1280.jpg

    Is Craig Breslow available the next couple of days? He's wile e. enough of a veteran to pull this off.

    HYPOTHETICAL: Let's say you're Randy Rosario.. Maybe you'll have a good career. Maybe you'll only pitch 5 innings total in the majors. Would you groove a pitch to Pujols in order to be on his highlight reel for the 600th HR? Also, in this scenario, the bases are empty, and the Twins are up 27-0.

    Little did we know they have a couple of Billion Dollar arms on staff! Impressive!

    There's so many little things to point out in that monster HR clip... Lidge immediately knows he messed up and goes down to his knees devastated. The Astros catcher immediately asks for a new game ball and runs out to calm down Lidge. Frankly, what on Earth could he have said in that moment to make Lidge not feel an inch tall? The crowd was going wild and after that moon shot, you could hear a pin drop.

    So Trout is getting all of the praise these days for being the best player on the planet... BUT, how quickly we forget that not too long ago, Albert Pujols was literally the perfect baseball player for the first 10 years of his career. His stats were unbelievably consistent where his lowest BA was .299 (his 10th full season) 30+ HRs and 100+ RBI every year. I'll always remember when he broke Brad Lidge psychologically for years because of this monster bomb... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Fntuc9cmy4

    You may also see Wile E. on the streets as your local Uber driver... That dude knows how to GRIND for his cash!

    Little known fact about Wile E. Coyote...He's actually the person who's behind all of the "I made $67k last month working from home! Click on the link below to learn about the secrets of making a TON of money from home!" posts you see on every comment section ever. It's a pretty lucrative gig!

    Probably similar, if not worse, than 2016 Jose Berrios. The dude's not ready, and probably won't be ready for 12-18 months.
  10. Vanimal46
    If they were headline pieces, then yeah I agree. As a 2nd or 3rd piece, either or would work.
  11. Vanimal46
    I'm a big fan of Wade, but wouldn't be opposed to making him a potential trade chip. Not sure if his value is higher or lower than Rosario at this point. If Wade is more sought after, then yeah, I'd probably do it.
  12. Vanimal46
    The current ranking of Stewart looks fair. I thought he was the right pick at the time, and won't fault the organization for choosing a raw player with a ton of upside. Some work out, some flame out.
  13. Vanimal46
    Agreed. If this is an evaluation year, then the point is to shuffle through all of the options and discard bad players. If this is a contending year, then there's no room for those kinds of players anyway.
  14. Vanimal46
    Couldn't agree more. They need to step up and make some investments if they want a good bullpen. I don't know how many more years we have to keep playing supplementary pieces in high leverage roles... Hasn't worked for 4+ years.
  15. Vanimal46
    I've always favored the number x, but it took a while to figure out what it was!
  16. Vanimal46
    At the very least minor trades need to be made to shore up the rest of the rotation... Ideally I'd like to aim high and find a person who could be at the top of the rotation with some years of control. If it takes a prospect or 2 + someone on the MLB team I'm alright with that.
  17. Vanimal46
    Call it stubbornness, but I'm still all in on Greene. If Falvine are the pitching whisperers like they were touted as they were hired, I'd like to give them an 18 year old to let develop him as they see fit.
  18. Vanimal46
    Though that would be awesome if they could....
  19. Vanimal46
    Sigh...... Gibby is back. Can't wait!!1!
  20. Vanimal46
    The ads really, really want me to fly to Branson, MO.
  21. Vanimal46
    So let's say you order new furniture.... Is it normal to expect the company to pick up and discard your existing furniture?
  22. Vanimal46
    It's a tough choice, but I think I would roll the dice on Greene. Wright is a nice consolation prize, and what do I know? From all I've read, and KLAW's quotes above, he's got a prototypical SP body and a good attitude. If he's a hard worker like Berrios, I'll certainly be rooting for the kid to succeed.
  23. Vanimal46
    Did I miss something in regards to Gibson? He's getting called up again?
  24. Vanimal46
    Haley is another subject in itself.... 89 MPH with minimal control of his pitches by the 2nd time in the batting order? I don't understand why he's worth protecting on the 25 man roster.
  25. Vanimal46
    Melotakis or Burdi is an easy call up IMO. I've said this before in other threads and will continue beating this drum. Relievers don't need x amount of innings at A, AA, and AAA in order to be "ready" for the majors. Ride with the hot hands and get rid of struggling relievers.
