    You know, Kubel might not have been as tall and handsome as Kepler, but...he was much uglier.

    Yeah. whoopsiedoodle. Ummmmm...thinking...I think that's probably pretty average, but in terms of the core group, I think we're looking very young. maybe it's just a matter of perspective.

    Projecting next year's opening day starters by age: P: Gibson, 28 C: Suzie, 32 1B: Mauer, 33 2B: Dozier, 29 3B: Sano, 23 SS: Polanco, 25 LF: Rosario, 25 CF: Buxton, 22 RF: Hicks, 26 DH: Vargas, 26 and you can probably scratch Suzie in favor of someone a hair younger, but that's an average age of 27 for what look to be our starters next season, so I'd say they look pretty young.

    Are you being serious? Because our best hitter is 22. The oldest core OF we have is 25. One of those core OFers is the consensus brightest prospect in baseball. We've got a top-20 guy ready to step into the rotation. But you already knew that. So, "cool" is right. What else do you want? I'll hang up and listen.

    Generally, I agree with that, and I think that historicallly, Minnesota sports fans are guilty of this kind of thing and that's why we're terrible fans, in general (that's a separate argument all together). But come on, guys! we're just finally crawling out of the basement. The kids we have on the field are playing competitive ball. Unfortunately, that's a HUGE step in the right direction. The plan to let this overwhelming crop of overthrow the old regime is coming to fruition. I'm happy just to let this vision grow a little bit before I start savaging TR for changing course because we've surpassed expectations.

    hmmm...WC game or contention for the next 8-10 years? None of you know who was available and for what. The Jepsen thing is a total bummer. But if you really thought Tulo could be had for Gibson, puuhhhlease. Nolasco for Shields is still my favorite of course. Let's all take a breath, count to ten and think of what we've been fortunate to enjoy this year. Then, take a step further and picture how unstoppable our Big Mig-Buck-Rosario-Berrios core is going to be for years to come. Ryan gets my respect for his patience and committment to our system. (bracing myself for negative vibes and...."add comment")

    Nolasco for Shields...good one.
  8. Pardon My Dinger
    Buxton for discounted Tulo + some pitcher guy. Oh-- and Morneau's contract so he can retire a Twin and we can all get a warm feeling inside.

    This rumor doesn't appear to be on Rockies fans' radar at all.

    How about let's not be trading anyone away for used-up old codgers? Hawkins, Benoit, and K-Rod? Puhhhleaze, girlfriend.
  11. Pardon My Dinger
    We've got too many projects on this team as it is. I hope Ozzie ends up putting it together...just somewhere other than Target Field.
  12. Pardon My Dinger
    more like six-man bloat-ation. Am i right you guys? ...actually, i like the idea.
  13. Pardon My Dinger
    Hoping they don't "see how he does" in Rochester. AAA is more of a step below MLB than it is a step above AA. Buuutttt, I'm probably the 90th person to make that statement in this thread, so I guess I'll just hang up and listen.
  14. Pardon My Dinger
    Mauer to RF, Sano to 1B. Presto change-o. And, no, I don't care about Aaron Hicks, so just save it.
  15. Pardon My Dinger
    Isn't this injury the reason that a lot of guys hold on to their batting gloves when they're on the basepaths?
