  1. Bring up anyone from AA or A ball who has 'stuff' and hope it can be harnessed on the fly like K Rod for the Angels back in the day. No idea who that would be but it has a better chance than more waiver wire fodder.
  2. Will there be a payroll floor as part of the cba? If so I'd rather keep Ryan than sign a pile of Josh Bell contracts in order to meet the minimum.
  3. Ryan has to pitch to rebuild some trade value. He might pass a physical but any team is going to declare that there's risk with his elbow. You hope some team is aggressive and still takes a chance with a decent offer but as of today I'd think it would be less than a month ago
  4. The Brewers' success is probably TP's goal. I think further tearing down the team to get there is an indictment on Falveys inability to build it in the first place, or at least would be in TP's eyes. I'm guessing Falvey wanted to start over and trade everyone, but TP didn't think Falvey should be the one to do so.
  5. Do we get to keep Taylor Rogers was was he never technically signed
  6. His memoir is a must read. Great American baseball story
  7. Can we take Byron Buxton's health for granted now? is my question
  8. 500 million of debt is what gets a Pohlad brother replaced by another. I think 'the core' gets a half season due to low trade value of Lopez off injury, and relatively low salaries of Ryan, Buck. If things go south the tear down commences.
  9. Is Aaron Sabato still around? I'd rather the spring training at bats go to him
  10. I thought he'd be back now not sure if we can afford him
  11. Hope that this team can be competitive in the Central? Sure I can see that by 27, 28. Compete for a Pennant? That's so far away even if things go right.
  12. 'Consider yourselves lucky to have a 100 million dollar payroll because we're losing so much money because you don't come to games.' combines well with 'We're banking on hope and that the next manager can develop this wave of minor leaguers into fully functioning members of the proven Falvey baseball system'. I think Falveys just a Yes Man for a very prestigious roles in MLB, that he gets to keep by being a Yes Man.
  13. I suppose then Falvey gets minimum 3 more years to see next manager through.
