    Carlos Torres, a 36 year old breathing reliever, signed a minor league deal with San Francisco. San Francisco... Your one stop shop for all Twins castoffs.

    Agreed. We read at the time Leipold wanted someone who agreed with his analysis that the team was a couple tweaks away from returning to the playoffs. I'm assuming 99% of the candidates he interviewed said "Are you nuts? This is an obvious rebuild." And Fenton was the only guy who said "Sure! A couple of tweaks and this team is a Stanley cup contender!"

    Follow up: Who did she sit by on the plane to cause that injury?
  4. Vanimal46
    Ugh...

    I'd have no problem at all with him starting game 3 of a playoff series. The game 2 starter has been switching back and forth between Odorizzi and Big Mike... Perez looked like that guy for a hot second but not anymore.

    Keep on chuggin along Gibby. You could go 8 easy tonight.

    You couldn't ask for a better FA signing than Nelson Cruz... Makes me wish they signed him 5 years ago.

    Incredible work by Russo. Must read.
  9. Vanimal46
    Definitely that... And the juiced baseballs.

    Sam Dyson is a grown ass man who I'm sure is very capable of jumping on a plane and pitching the same day... My God. It's just a bad game. It wasn't a managerial failure, they didn't put him in an impossible circumstance.

    Idk how musicians do it... Riding around in a bus, don't know what city they're in, and expect to give a good concert without a full day off from travel. Or how business people meet other people after they flew in that day... Athletes are totally different though. I commend Dyson for his strength and courage to play baseball the same day he traveled... Not a lot of people can do that evidently.

    The west coast? He flew from Philadelphia. A 2 hour 40 minute flight...
  13. Vanimal46
    From what I'm reading here a 2 hour 40 minute flight is mentally and physically exhausting. Nearly impossible to do one's job under such demanding conditions...
  14. Vanimal46
    Leave it to the Twins to ruin Dyson's good WPA and FIP

    I didn't think Adell would be such a fast riser but he is. After Royce got promoted to AA a week ago that leaves Hunter Greene (TJS) as the only 2017 draftee we were following who hasn't seen AA action.

    What's more amazing is not a single "top prospect" has worked out for the other team.
  17. Vanimal46
    When I think about all-time great lineups, the 2019 Seattle Mariners are clearly top of mind...

    All of these new trends are going to add up to an ugly work stoppage IMO. Teams will continue to value prospects because of cost certainty and the system in place to depress their salary. Players are going to be upset because the system was set up to reward tenured MLB players and owners are no longer holding up that end of the deal (fairly so). What we're seeing (boring free agency, constipated trade deadline) are all symptoms to a much bigger problem in the near future.

    Soon! September 6th is the closing date.
  21. Vanimal46
    Same... Unfortunately. When music festivals happen I wish I could rent out my place, go on vacation, and cover a couple months of rent!
  22. Vanimal46
    Perhaps trades aren't the best avenue to bank on improvement for the team... I hear there's a period of time in the winter where teams only have to spend money to acquire players!
  23. Vanimal46
    That should tell teams something... But he'll get picked up again.
  24. Vanimal46
    Not that I would see you doing this... Does your apt complex allow you to rent out your place on Airbnb on weekends like this?
