    LOVE JoJo. Maybe we should take some time off from Dozier and just Depeche Mode - "Enjoy the Silence" Feels like Falvey is telling other GMs "Don't Call Us, We'll Call You" by Sugarloaf.. It's tough to know when to hold em, know when to fold em, know when to walk away like Kenny Rogers - "The Gambler"....

    Costco lobster tails! Grilled with bamboo sticks. I think we also have gulf shrimp to eat as well. It's going be a good night of seafood!

    Merry Christmas everyone! Hope you're spending this day with family and friends. Our family tradition for xmas dinner is lobster... Can't wait!

    7-9 here we come! Oh boy!

    Not for $25 million. But I would be interested in bringing him on board.
  6. Vanimal46
    Yes, I would certainly consider trading 1-2 of them for MLB help right now. Out of those 5 names, realistically 1 or 2 will pan out, and the others will flame out. Roll the dice on 3 and trade the others.
  7. Vanimal46
    And Twins fans want a lopsided trade. Good thing fans don't make the trades.
  8. Vanimal46
    Rajai Davis is light years better than D Santana, so the Twins should make that move regardless of the Dozier situation.

    Where are the 2 top pitchers and a closer this year to compare it to 1987?
  10. Vanimal46
    My mom taught us how to play this afternoon on a rare rainy day here. It's actually pretty fun to play!
  11. Vanimal46
    Ha! No, I was kidding about bridge. I wasn't kidding about Cribbage though... that's one of my favorites to play!
  12. Vanimal46
    Tomorrow is cribbage and bridge! Followed up with shuffle board and water aerobics in the afternoon...

    Been playing a lot of card games lately.... pfeffer (also known as Euchre), Huckley Buck, Kings in the Corner, 500, and just learning how to play canasta!

    Yes, he's had a fine run the last couple of years. But can we please have some perspective on this thread? The poster I replied too has mentioned before 2 MLB/ MLB ready starters or no deal. Dozier is a luxury addition for the Dodgers. Would they like to have a power hitting 2B? Sure, anyone would. Do they need him to make the playoffs? No. Do they need him to make the NLCS? Probably not. All I've been saying is the Twins need the Dodgers prospects more than the Dodgers need Dozier.
  15. Vanimal46
    And every other year he hit between 20-28 HRs. Pumping up an abberation doesent do much for the other side in the negotiation. It's like the Twins at the July deadline saying "Are you INSANE?! Why don't you want Suzuki? He hit .300 one year!"
  16. Vanimal46
    Cart before the horse. No trade has happened. The very same thing could happen with the new regime.
  17. Vanimal46
    The old guard didn't settle for anything with Plouffe. How did that work? I'm fine with Falvey and Co. It may be a little premature to praise them for their lack of activity.
  18. Vanimal46
    Back when the Twins were contenders, yeah they probably should have kept him and take the 1st round comp pick. Now, since they have not been contenders since the Johan days, they could use a couple shiny trinkets.
  19. Vanimal46
    At this point, I think we're more familiar with De Leon, who is still not on the team, than prospects currently on this team.
  20. Vanimal46
    The Dodgers have the upper hand in this poker game, AND the Twins are taking on the risk if they're keeping Dozier. Bad Dozier is available at a moment's notice. Unless there's a major injury at 2B, the trade market for him isn't changing. If they hold onto this hand, and bad Dozier shows up in April, I'm going to be quite upset that they didn't make a deal.
  21. Vanimal46
    Think of the Dodgers as a movie theater. They already have the iMax 3D screen (Kershaw), the best surround system (Seager, Peterson, farm system) and decent seats. The Twins have those reclining leather chairs (Dozier) to make the Dodgers a go-to theater. Do they need those reclining leather chairs? Not really. Everything else is top notch.
  22. Vanimal46
    When's it coming out? In Fargo I trust. One of the rare TV shows that must be watched live.
  23. Vanimal46
    If it hasn't been completed by now, I have my doubts. Dozier is a luxury addition for the Dodgers. IMO they don't need him as much as the Twins need prospects. It's a long poker game, and Falvey doesn't appear to want to fold his hand. Even though the Dodgers have the advantage.
  24. Vanimal46
    Agreed. But, as a positive, Jay and Romero appear to have the stuff to be back of the bullpen options if they fail to make it as starters.

    Good morning and happy Tuesday! Today is National Sangria Day! That sounds delicious! May have to make one tonight after playing pickleball.... CC to Chi: since you're a big tennis player, have you played pickleball before? Apparently it's huge out here in California, and it's a blast to play!
