I hate the Twins for not pursuing Ramos when he ended up signing the perfect contract given his injury history. Incentive ladden, only 2 years, very club friendly and allows him to get a bigger payday if he performs well.

Castro is the safer

CHEAPER

alternative to pair with Murph

Yet Tampa, an organization flush with money (right) can take the risk.

I hate the Twins

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

It is really hard not to be frustrated with MN Professional Sports teams.

We really really really need an organization to step up and say it wants to win and I don't mean simply getting into the playoffs. win it all.

Castro was a good get. I think your love of Ramos (and I don't blame you) is clouding your judgment a bit this time. Targeting and getting one specific beloved player is a longshot. SMF got it (briefly) with Hardy and SMF basked in the sun for that season. But really, what are the chances?




twinsfan -> RE: MLB General Information PT 4 (12/7/2016 7:07:06 PM)

Now the White Sox got the top pitching prospect on the market for Adam Eaton. Wow! Twins are getting taken to the woodshed by the Whities. Ouch. Better move Dozier soon before all the best dangled prospects are gone.

I love the Twins, but I hate the Pohlads. And Mauer. And Perkins.

I use to enjoy it more when Kenny Williams would do things that made opponents laugh at them .....

I don't remember that. Please refresh me. All I remember is an under-the-radar World Championship in 2005 under Kenny Williams.

Wasn't he a loose cannon?
I thought he was crazy.

He signed so many good players to decent contracts....(Sale, Eaton, Abreu, Robertson) that just trading them away will rebuild the team. Mauer signed earlier would have done the same...Hunter done earlier, Johan, etc. etc.

Williams could take chances because he signed his core earlier to team friendly contracts.




Mr. Ed -> RE: MLB General Information PT 4 (12/8/2016 5:56:55 AM)

Perkins blew his chances for big bucks by getting fat and lazy

The Marlins have made an offer of five years and more than $80MM to free agent closer Kenley Jansen, Yahoo! Sports’ Jeff Passan tweets.

The Marlins were reportedly the runners-up to acquire Aroldis Chapman, who agreed to a five-year, $86MM deal with the Yankees




Mr. Ed -> RE: MLB General Information PT 4 (12/8/2016 5:58:36 AM)

I can't believe the CHISOX got Gioloto for Adam Eaton.

Bizarre. As if the Nats panicked.




Mr. Ed -> RE: MLB General Information PT 4 (12/8/2016 6:30:39 AM)

Give up one of the better pitching prospects for a guy who fanned 115 times, stole 14 bases,and 14/59 (HRs/RBIs).

Fleecing

Didn't they get another top 100 prospect too?

They got 3 pitchers for him.

Some think that it's part 1 of a deal and they'll send Robertson there as well.

It looked excessive....I was listening to MLB Radio and they were asking why they didn't just sign Rickie Fowler---especially now that it sounds like the Nats are going after Jansen too.

That is insane. Eaton is extremely average. Is he even much better than Revere?

Gonna be looking up at the Whitesox for a long time.

Giolito fits the profile of a pitcher I want the Twins to get. Guy is a horse. 6'6" 250, 96 MPH fastball, nasty slider, 22 years old

How in the heck is Washington only getting Adam Eaton. What a silly SILLY trade

Much better than Revere. 14 homers last year. How many has Revere hit in his career? One? Eaton had basically the same WAR as Dozier last year will contributing elite defense and is controllable until 2021.

(Although I'm positive they overpaid)
