  1. Going out in a limb. No one gets fired now?
  2. Something Wicked This Way Comes.
  3. Funny, I bet Donatel gets tossed after this game just to make an example of someone and show fans they care. But while the defense is not good, this loss is mostly on the offense and special teams.
  4. If you can’t beat the Colts at home, can you beat anyone?
  5. Ugh, I appreciate Boras’ immense skills, but could he stop using it against the Twins?
  6. I actually think it’s Lavine, but they purposefully keep us in the dark. Lavine is the GM after all, what else would he possibly do besides manage the roster.
  7. I’ve never seen an 11M MiLB deal. Not a bad player to stash in St. Paul. Wait, he’s guaranteed a roster spot? That can’t be possible. Why not just do Chris Davis for 8M? Or Rob Deer for 4M?
  8. I don't want a guy who hit 5 HR last year starting in the outfield.
  9. I'm also not too interested in the White Sox worst outfielder.
  10. OK, I'm over vent/laughing at the Turner/Gallo/Pollock bit. Can someone provide another quote from the article for me to roll my eyes at?
  11. I was going to say that you can probably avoid whiffing on many of your offensive prospects by steering clear of the guys with high K% (apologies Matt Wallner!), but looks like Down's K% went from 20% with the Dodgers to 32% with Boston. Even comparing A to AAA numbers, that doesn't seem normal. But also not seeming normal is skipping AA. Kind of weird Boston did that.
  12. Trading prospects for superstars can be a huge sucker bet for the prospect side. EVERYBODY has a good idea about the superstar's capabilities, but the original team is the only one who has deep insight into the prospects.
  13. Wait, were you not going to do that anyway?!?
  14. He averaged one fewer out than he did with the Reds.
  15. Tough or not, Wolfson and E Neal have provided nothing but silence. Are they still covering the Twins? Is Dan Hayes, who’s with The Athletic, all we got now?
  16. Lost in all this, what happened to our local reporters? Why aren’t we getting info on what the hell is going on via tough questions to those in charge? Seemed in past years we’d at least get some crumbs tossed our way.
  17. I doubt the Twins offered that. But with him wanting to go to NY, I doubt he’d have come here unless their deal was bigger in years and noticeably different in AAV. I won’t be surprised if we hear another team, (not the Twins) had a bigger deal in the table.
  18. Funny how overbearing mothers and creepy guys at the bar both use the same greeting.
  19. I don't think the Red Sox are really in a salary crunch situation. I think they're well under the luxury tax. I can't imagine they'd move him now only getting salary relief, which they don't need, instead of waiting until mid season in the hopes that he rebounds and can fetch them some talented prospects.
  20. Things seem to work out exactly how Atlanta likes them to work out recently. My bet is all the other teams recognize Swanson is much closer to league average than he is to Correa/Bogaerts/Turner and no one offers him the deal he wants allowing Atlanta to swoop in late and re-sign for one of those traditional home-town-discount deals they've become known for.
  21. Yeah, I keep hearing these shortstop ideas, check their stats against Kyle Farmer's and wonder why we'd want to downgrade. That was NOT a Kyle Farmer endorsement.
  22. While interested in Rodon, I would be concerned about his attitude if he didn't actually want to be here. I like a grumpy bulldog on the mound, but they have not worked out well when they wanted to be elsewhere. And guys who don't smile for their profile photos so far seem to be similar in demeanor. See how much nicer these guys look!
  23. Not if he continues to hit like Kyle Farmer he won't.
