Does anybody know the facts? Our record in this s*** dome the last 4-5 years?

 

It's quite obvious he has mancrushes on a number of the Twins. Mauer is legit though, as he's probably a top 5 player in the league right now. I wonder how the Cubs feel about picking Prior over him. Who was catching for them at the time, Todd Hundley? fathom.....?

 

Damien Miller and Paul Bako maybe?

Don't see JR and KW investing $125-150 million into Joe Mauer when the Yankees will throw it at him to replace Posado or whoever is catching there in 2010.

We were 1-8 last year. Better in the past though, but probably not a ton.

Well, I wouldn't go that far. We though Allen had value and we dealt him for a RP. We'd probably deal Poreda for a backup middle infielder.

 

If it's the right deal, Poreda could/should be gone.

Damien Miller and Paul Bako maybe?

Ha. That was after Miller's magical year in Arizona.

If it's the right deal, Poreda could/should be gone.

I agree with that. Preferably for a top of the rotation SP or a big bat.

Jesus, Alexei is 5-10 with 4 walks against Blackburn?

wow 1-8 and we still won the division. Amazing.

Yankees are grooming some young superstar catchers though. I bet Mauer stays in Minnesota.

10-18 in the last 3....so the two years before that we were 9-10

Alexei good judgment in this at bat so far. and for the most part all yr

Alexei just hits Blackburn.

I agree with that. Preferably for a top of the rotation SP or a big bat.

 

Well, yeah, I'm not saying to dump him for Mark Loretta.

Konerko would be gone, Mauer is a good citizen. JR stepped up for Albert Belle. Weakening his big rival and picking up a future HOFer in his prime, that money could be a bargain. Not saying there's much of a chance, but if they were willing to bust the budget on Hunter, Mauer is a no brainer. Chances are though the Twins arent' going to let him go, and if they did, they would trade him first and not to the White Sox.

doesn't mean mauer won't find himself at 1b with Tex DH though

both the sox and twins (and most teams in baseball) were far better at home last seaon than on the road. same goes for the twins this year. sox have been consistent in both this year

A dinger here would be awesome.

I don't see them going after the guy that can set his price tag north of $20 million a year.

Sweet. We ain't dead yet, motherf***ers.

4-2 on a double from JD.

Texiera DHing is a waste. He's legit GG-quality.
