    Wait, why didn't we sign Josh Bell again?

    I would agree. I've been to several games in Chicago-both ballparks. White Sox fans were great. Cubs fans were...like Boston fans. I don't really find the appeal of either ballpark TBH. Wrigley smells. Us Cellular field/comiskey/guaranteed rate or whatever it is called now is stale and has no character.

    What about the Yankee fans that assaulted the Guardians outfielders last year?

    I like your analogy.

    Wait, how many world series have the Padres won again? Idk, spending just to spend money with no plan is also not something I can get behind. There are only two crazy spending owners imo right now- Cohen and Seidler. The Twins appear to be spending relative to their market size. I can't be upset at that.

    That seems about right. Gordon should definitely hit before Kepler.

    Yeah, I don't agree. Have to give Miranda and AK a chance at the MLB level this year.

    Defensively Gallo is excellent. Dude can run, and has an absolute rocket launcher for an arm. I watched him in Texas quite a bit.
  26. dex8425
    I've wondered about Gray too. No way they trade him. As long as he's healthy this year I see him as a QO candidate, so at least you don't lose him for nothing, but otherwise I think they let another team pay Gray for the back third of his career.

    It'll be Buxton or Polanco. I'd hit Polanco leadoff against RHP and Buxton vs LHP.

    Lopez would've been the best pitcher on the Twins last year and it's not really that close. I think you're undervaluing Lopez.

    It would be interesting to look at other teams' picks from the same time frame and compare. It's really difficult to consistently get MLB value from draft picks, with injury and projectability being significant hurdles. For example: Cleveland used first round picks on Mike Papi (2014, has not debuted, looks to be cooked, sucked at AAA last year), Brady Aiken (2015, out of baseball, never pitched above High-A), and Will Benson (2016, made his debut last year, was terrible in a 28 game sample size, might be decent still). Bo Naylor looks like a good pick, and so does Triston McKenzie.

    He's such an asset defensively that if he plays, he's going to play in the field somewhere.

    It's mixed. Odorizzi, Joe Ryan and Maeda worked out pretty well. Certainly their trades for pitchers have worked out better than their free agent signing of pitchers.
  34. dex8425
    Yeah, who bats 1-2-3? Buxton, Polanco, Correa? Polanco could hit leadoff too.
