A thoughtful article and well written but why would anyone think you were out to dunk on anyone who put out opinions or analysis that shed a negative light upon Rosario this winter? Seem like all opinions should be able to co-exist here and such a disclaimer should be unnecessary.
I love this deal! And the best part is when the deal is finalized it means that the Dodgers had no problems with the medical info, putting the lie to the Cheating Sox claims. Hopefully also silencing their bandwagon fans who try to explain how baseball works, even though they aren't aware that the game existed before 2004.
Seem to me that the Dodgers would be more interested in young bats than almost MLB ready pitchers. Getting the cheating Sox out of the process may benefit the Twins.
Weren't some posters on this site calling Diaz "another Twins draft bust" as recently as this off season? I think so. I just hope the same ones aren't the ones bemoaning his loss today.
