    No sir, unfortunately they are not! We should be so lucky.

    Good point. People are going to believe what they want to believe. We are seeing that a lot lately and not just in baseball. I doubt it. If LaVelle said it after the trade, then it sounds a lot like damage control to me. That's fine; we all spin. The front office needs to spin. I just have a hard time believing it. I doubt the front office made Escobar an offer and he rejected it, which is what the poster I responded to is implying.
  3. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Not sure that answers the question.
  4. Hosken Bombo Disco
    They might not finish second. So, F I hope we can look back on this as a year of mistakes, and I hope the front office learns from those mistakes.

    I think the poster was referencing a contract extension, different than a qualifying offer. And I still also think they get a lot more out of letting the fan favorites play out the season. Just my opinion but even stronger opinion now that the deadline has happened. Losing begets lots of ill effects. I'm seeing a lot of ticket promotions on social media all the sudden. Some not so awesome. (Hey! buy frozen pizza, get free tickets! was one of the promotions-- about one step up from "someone broke into my car, and there on the dashboard...")
  6. Hosken Bombo Disco
    What was the offer, again?
  7. Hosken Bombo Disco
    disagree completely. This team has plenty of talent for a postseason run. Just need to get the best out of it.

    I love the way this is presented. Great job.

    Don't forget "sustainable championship contender!"
  11. Hosken Bombo Disco
    On the contrary, sports is inherently unpredictable, and games ahead or games behind in the standings is maybe the only number that matters. They were 7 games back when they traded Escobar. Unlikely, but doable!

    Mauer wants to keep playing. He has said as much.
  13. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I think the running analogy falls flat. It was dire, mostly because they were giving away too many games. I would have liked to see if they could rally. "When the going gets tough", and all that.
  14. Hosken Bombo Disco
    we were sniffing it when Escobar was traded. We weren't there yet, but we were sniffing it.
  15. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Again, you are forgetting the pennant race. I know it angers many people to say, but the Twins were still in a pennant race.
  16. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I think you want to check that fact or clarify what you mean by it
  17. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Esco and Doze in the same division! They will be reunited at least.
  18. Hosken Bombo Disco
    It's the opinion of you and others that the Twins were out of the race, despite evidence they were not, and despite the fact teams make up 7 games more often than you would think.
  19. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I give credit to the radio team for giving an extended interview to Dozier after the game last night. It was nice to hear his voice.
  20. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Booo
  21. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I'd bet all these guys are filler, at best, except for maybe the guy in the Pressly trade.
  22. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Next step in Garver's development: actually throwing down to the base the runner is attempting to steal.
  23. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Or, for those who prefer to read standings, 7 games back.
  24. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Now the front office is telling LaVelle they tried to extend Escobar. Well, maybe. I will bet on that being pure damage control instead.
  25. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I wasn't talking about trade return or "expecting/hoping" to get back any prospects. I was asking for clarification that the short term pipeline was robust, which I sort of read as "upper minors is already stacked," which I disagree with.
