    Sano's 2nd home run was the loudest crack off the bat I've heard in a long time.

    What a freaking game!!! I can't handle this!

    WTF??

    Tyler ****ing Duffey is a high leverage reliever now... 4th time he's pitched in 5 days. CC: Falvine. For the love of god!

    Resigning Waynes is now skyrocketing up the priority list.

    Smart teams took advantage of the market inefficiency (over valuing prospects) and built perennial playoff contending teams.

    Since apparently I have nothing better to do at the airport I found the Realmuto article over the off-season. http://twinsdaily.com/topic/32142-article-revisiting-realmuto-as-a-twins-trade-target/ Sure, there were people arguing against the trade. How quickly we forget Garver was dealing with concussion issues and it wasn't a sure thing he would stick behind the plate. And no one predicted he would break out offensively like he has.

    The Twins are 1-0 against the Yankees since July 22, 2019!!!

    I've gotta say Mr. Brooks, you're making me think twice about my search criteria... New builds interest me the most because I want a smaller probability for major repairs before I upgrade and/or relocate. The area where I'm looking is a mix of established neighborhoods, new build communities, and farm land... There is confirmed construction of a new shopping/bar/restaurant area opening 2 miles from there. https://eastvillageatx.com I'd be gambling on the upside of living close to that, turning that $300k house into a $500k house because of location.

    Yeah as a fellow sales guy I understand creating urgency to move forward. Just today a sales rep at a new build community told my realtor another buyer is interested in the house we looked at yesterday and asked if I wanted to buy now... It was a cool floor plan and backed up to a green belt, but my gut says no... It will suck if the other buyer moves forward, but it wasn't meant to be if that's the case.

    Thanks for the great advice! I've been shopping lenders since a loan is just a commodity. I'm learning that new build communities like Centex, Pulte, etc. have preferred lenders they want you to use instead of Wells Fargo or a local credit union. I think it's lame you can't lock in an interest rate until the very minute you purchase a home... Right now I've seen rates around the same level of 3.75%. I vetted out other friends and the realtor they used first before deciding to use a friend's dad of mine. I didn't want a realtor who is banking on my sale to eat... He's established, knows the market, and takes the time to teach me what I should be looking for in new builds. I'm purchasing the house on my own with the intention of having my girlfriend move in eventually. This is going to be a starter home ideally under 2k sq. ft. and when kids come into play, I'd sell this for a bigger place down the road. I've got a lot more to learn about escrow, inspections, and expected insurance payments.

    I've been on the hunt for a new house, and let me tell ya, it's very stressful in a hot market like Austin, TX. Any tips, experiences, funny stories from your first time trying to buy a house?

    When there are enough claims of racism and instant back pedaling from the accuser, in the example I posted it was Erica Thomas, then it's going to fall on deaf ears.
  15. Vanimal46
    I also have no interest in a make it about racism argument. I think right now the word racism is overused and losing its true meaning. One of the things I agree with Ewen about! Media and politicians need to cool it with calling everyone racist, otherwise it will fall on deaf ears. I mean, right now we have people claiming racism when a person had 20 items in an express lane at the grocery store... It's getting to be way too much. https://twitter.com/CJenningsWSB/status/1152686288740507648?s=19

    Joe Mauer is aroused reading this post.
  17. Vanimal46
    Is his elbow a higher risk for injury than any other pitcher out there?
  18. Vanimal46
    You can find out for yourself here: https://www.baseballtradevalues.com Let us know what kind of trade proposals you put together!
  19. Vanimal46
    This is a good thread. Thanks for sharing. I think at least during the primaries against fellow Dems there should be a focus on policy. Once it gets to the show down vs. Trump, then they can throw policy out the window and play the good vs. evil card.
  20. Vanimal46
    That proposal is an overpay according to baseballtradevalues.com Stroman total value: 26.8 Larnach, Gordon, Thorpe total value: 31.2 But it may take something like that to get their attention.
  21. Vanimal46
    Ny-Bomb.
  22. Vanimal46
    Kirilloff will be in the same boat next year... Maybe Larnach too. I just don't see a spot for Rooker on the MLB roster without injuries taking place.
  23. Vanimal46
    Ask and you shall receive... Stashak is on the way.

    baseballtradevalues.com is a fun resource if you haven't checked it out before. Below are validated trades from that website as potential options: SF Trades: LHP Will Smith Total Value 9.2 MIN Trades: LF/1B Brent Rooker Total Value 9.2 I'd do that trade yesterday. TOR trades: RHP Ken Giles Total Value 9.6 MIN Trades: SS Wander Javier (6.6) RHP Blaine Enlow (3.7) Total 10.3 Slight overpay. I'd like to switch Gonsalves but since he's on IL I'm trying to be realistic. TEX trades: RHP Chris Martin (0.7 TV) MIN trades: OF Jaylin Davis (0.7 TV) Trading for the ace as always is going to be tough. If anyone wants to do their own trade proposals it's pretty fun! https://www.baseballtradevalues.com

    Last I read the Twins have a top 10, arguably top 5 minor league system. I'm sure they could cobble something together.
