    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. Blake
    Amazing stuff. Thanks Parker.

    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.
  4. Blake
    Fair enough.
  5. Blake
    I think your original point about showing remorse by offering to renegotiate or give some contract dollars back was spot on.

    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.
  7. Blake
    Yes.

    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.

    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.

    Oh, so it's not Rosario?

    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.

    Crud, I forgot about that.

    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.

    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.

    I'm looking at it from the vantage point of someone like myself. I find it incredible someone can even get around on a 95mph fastball to begin with.
  18. Blake
    By the way, it still astounds me that knowing what pitch is coming is that much of an advantage for a hitter.
  19. Blake
    In looking at Logan Morrison's accusation, meh. If the teams listed were using electronics to pick up signs, I'm not sure I care, because it doesn't appear it was being used in real time, unlike what Houston was doing.
  20. Blake
    I believe there has been an explicit ban on electronic sign stealing for quite a while, which I believe factored into the harsh penalties levied against Houston.
  21. Blake
    I was talking to a guy that knows a bit about this, he was a catcher in the minor leagues, and he thinks stealing signs the traditional way is part of the game, but electronic sign stealing is a bridge too far. Which I agree with.
  22. Blake
    I'm not really interested in position players. The team won 101 games last year yet fell short, due to lack of pitching.
  23. Blake
    The "three batter minimum" rule will last until managers decide to call a pitch "hard inside" and "accidentally" hit a batter, getting the pitcher ejected. Oops.
  24. Blake
    Signing Grandal put a better fielder behind the plate. What are the Sox going to do about the rest of the infield catching the ball?
  25. Blake
    I wouldn't mind Gibson coming back but I think he is a candidate for a change of scenery. No matter what, I wish Mr. Gibson nothing but the best.
