Squirmin' for Yermin

Joc rumors come.. We lose Manny... Joc rumors come.. We lose Wheeler.

So unless we are targeting the top 2 SP... Which we aren't... Let's just create a monster offsensive squad and trade for JDM and Joc.... LOL,

Fuck it... Let's just make a monster offense... LOL Trade for JDM and trade for Joc. Let's just outscore everyone to get to 81-81.

Neither do I... Those appear to me to be the riskiest of SP deals this offseason.. Both I predict to blow up almost immediately., And I've stood by that all offseason

Man... I honestly said if we didn't get one of the top 3 SP (knowing the top 2 weren't happening) that this offseason would probably be a failure... And I don't see anyway around that still... I can't be happy with a Keuchel led SP offseason lol

Signing two multiple year guys makes no sense unless the second was like Ryu.. Now that Ryu is likely the best we can do idk what do do... Bumgarner and Keuchel interest me very little...

I will wager we try to trade for Chris Archer now.. Would be such a White Sox Move..

I hate the idea of penciling in McCann for any DH at bats.

This is exactly how I feel.

So a 7.5 win change... SOOO 80ish wins? I stand corrected on my number (off 1.5) but I would be right on the overall outcome of right around .500.

He strikes me as the next King Felix debacle.. Signs big contract and due to all of his innings at such a young age compltely implodes.. He would make me insanely nervous.

I'm glad we didnt touch him foir that

how? He was 3 WAR... Didn't our RF combine for negative 6? That's a 9 win difference.

But we act as if we are a low market. That's the issue.

I think most of us agree 5 years at 110 is fine and reasonable and we will all be mad if we don't win that... But fuck it.. Offer 6 years, 120 million. Literally 10 million more for his age 34 season. Ivan Nova just made 9. Scrub pitchers get 5-10.

Isn't it wild having a guy like Joc last here would have pushed us near .500.... His +3 WAR would have replaced our what -6 from whatever the hell we were throwing out there... He's my favorite realistic RF addition this offseason.. Unless Conforto because obtainable.

If only that enticed them lol

no sorry. 10 years playoff, lost everytime, 0 world series.

Castellanos has ZERO roll here now that we for some reason signed Abreu to an expensive long deal.

So you think being a Twins fans all those years with Mauer and Morneou would be more fun than actually winning a world series...

But would you trade our World Series for 10 playoff years? I sure as hell wouldn't and I would hope you wouldn't either.

They will gladly trade all that for that World Series.. Without Corbin they don't have one.

100% true.

I completely agree with your tiers here.

The sky may not be falling.. yet.
