Blake's Achievements

  1. Well, Twins Daily has had a nice run. I watch baseball, and hang out at Twins Daily, because I get enough political nonsense elsewhere. This isn't needed here, because there is enough politics on other sites throughout the web.
  2. I think the Twins signing young players to long term contracts, even though the players still have a few years of team control left, was a big indicator the new FO is moving in a different direction.
  3. I think your original point about showing remorse by offering to renegotiate or give some contract dollars back was spot on.
  4. This reminds me of what I used to tell my kids when they were growing up. I'd tell them, "It's not a matter of whether or not I know what you're up to, it's a matter of whether I'll say anything about what you're up to." Sounds like clubs were warned to knock it off and ignored the warning.
  5. The Red Sox new FO, by doing this, just sent up a huge, "seller beware" sign and I expect any trades with the Red Sox, by any team, in the future, will be approached with extreme caution.
  6. One of L.A.'s biggest weaknesses has been someone in the bullpen that is a "lights out" reliever. L.A. just solved that issue with the addition of Graterol.
  7. It really wouldn't surprise if the Boston fan base push back isn't affecting this deal. From what I understand, they're pretty rabid.
  8. Overall, not a big deal. However, if the Twins MI is giving up runs at critical junctures of the game, then, yes, it is a big deal.
  9. I think the Twins can afford one of either Arraez or Polanco. Having two average gloves and great bats, up the middle, is asking for trouble. Donaldson addresses the 3B issue but the middle is still weak. I think Polanco should be on the trading block.
