    Missed that last night. Although I do think that Bert shtick is tired, he's been apart of my summers for however many years its been. Feel like another part of my childhood is dying.

    If the restructuring is what gets us baseball within 8-10 weeks, I'm for it. I'd prefer this idea over the spring training facilities in Arizona and Florida. Plus I'd think this is a way for MLB to get the DH in both leagues moving forward. Baseball in any capacity > no baseball

    Wasnt he arrested or something right around the time of the induction ceremony? EDIT: Yeah, arrested for assault about a month before the ceremony http://www.startribune.com/knoblauch-charged-with-assault-twins-scrap-hall-of-fame-day/268495992/

    I find his near unanimous of 70 out of 71 voters for the Twins Hall of Fame more controversial than Jeter not being unanimous.

    I think the hold up was the 5th year option. Believe that came later. I think I remember reading that somewhere.

    I originally read this as a suggestion to move him to right field again and my eye started twitching. Glad I re-read that.

    How dare you not address him by his proper name. It's Twins Legend Jaime Garcia. That said, seems to be a decent, albeit incomplete flip.

    I was told there would be no math

    Depends on the price I suppose. 2/15 may be a little steep, unless it were to be back loaded a bit on the second year. I say he'd be a upgrade from the likes of Harper, albeit at a much bigger price tag. Having said all that, I think he's a good bounce back candidate. 2014-2017 he was a decent reliever even without his 2 extreme outliers of 2018 and 2019. ERA was 3.21, FIP 3.43 in those four seasons.

    Bird could be interesting if the dude could just. stay. healthy.
  13. Puckett34
    I'll just say this. Watching Sano home run highlights is a delight.

    I'd say at minimum one pitcher from the top two tiers Strasburg and Cole obviously at the top of the wish list. Then go re-sign Odorizzi and Pineda. My rotation would look like this: 1) Cole/Strasburg 2) Berrios 3) Odorizzi 4) Pineda 5) Wheeler/Keuchel

    I do not think Eddie alone lands a #3-4. Pair him a top 5 prospect and a throw in, maybe. I'm not so sure trading Eddie would be a answer either. When healthy, (big when) a outfield of Rosario-Buxton-Kepler is as good as any outfield in the league. Having said all that, you gotta trade from depth to get a decent return. Gotta spend money to make money kind of thinking.

    See the issue I think is the Twins front office offers what the pitcher is worth. Look no further than Darvish, Yu. They offered him what he was worth, maybe more now that there is two seasons under the belt of that contract. With doing that and then getting mocked for "being in on" seemingly every big named free agent. Then coming up short is the Twins will need to overpay to get big names to come. For whatever reasons, payroll "restrictions" (which I don't think are much of a thing as they used to be), past culture (2016 and beyond excluded), weather, etc, is not landing the Twins the big fish. I hope this can change in this off season

    I honestly think that different broadcasts pick up ambient stadium sound more than others. I barely noticed it whenever it was on FSN, but the national broadcasts in the regular season and playoffs, I noticed it more. It doesn't really bother me, I usually tune it out and barely hear it.

    My original thought was that Dobnak was a decent enough ground ball pitcher whereas Odorizzi is a fly ball pitcher. Take that for what it is with the results. I'm not so sure Odorizzi would've had better results. We'll never know. Not sure if I agreed with it, but now I have the benefit of hindsight.
  20. Puckett34
    Well, that happened. Decent enough start, kind of got away from them at the end. I'd assume Dobnak is going tonight and I assume that Smeltzer will piggyback on tonight as well. I'm guessing that Odorizzi would be going tonight had they won Game 1. Don't want a bullpen game in a potential 0-2 hole
  21. Puckett34
    You read it correctly. But I could also see how it could be misconstrued. Things are tense right now. I also try to not pass up a opportunity to use that video and quote it off hand regularly.
  22. Puckett34
    I figured. Just battling sarcasm with more sarcasm

    As others have said, little surprised with Adrianza's inclusion. But he provides a little more than the Turtle. As with Gibby over Perez, meh, seems like it has as much to do with the Yankees only having 2 lefty bats as it does with Gibby's ability to pitch. Wouldn't expect much out of either, hopefully Gibby proves me wrong.

    Playstation Vue, Hulu Live (after game 1) or YouTube TV alternating 7 day free trials may be in order for me.
