Val...just a couple rebuttal points: Oliver and Greenwell never won a Gold Glove. Oliver and Greenwell couldn't steal bases. Oliver won a World Series, but in 1971 the Pirates were Clemente &...

Shane, I think you're spot on with your guess that the free agent pitcher is B. Webb. He fits the profile. Some years ago he had one of the best power sinkers in MLB. Injuries have affected his...

Very interesting. Thanks for laying this out Shane.

I agree Mauer should hit 2nd. As a #3 he has never knocked in 100 runs. Even in his MVP year with 28 HR's he didn't knock in 100. He should bat 2nd. If Maestro has to start the season in CF, you...

The Twins rhetoric and their actions don't jibe. I have no problem NOT over-paying for mediocrity, IF you pay for QUALITY. However, the Twins claim no one of quality wants to take their money...

I vote "Best Comment" to No Crying in Baseball...

Jack Morris did in 1991.

Great HAL-9000 reference Brock! Although S.O.V. Dave can be annoying at times, that's no different than the rest of us. Plus, he's made 1,962 posts and I just reached 40! I bow to his...

Very interesting. With his stuff, he could be solid in the N.L. With his head, the Pirates may have just tossed $14-mil out the window...

Great signing. We should all say the rosary every day in hopes of keeping him healthy.

Can someone give a little background/detail on Biddle and Ruf?

Is Rosario only playing OF in the PWL? Is he playing any 2B?

I prefer Pelfry over Correia but alas, we are stuck with Kevin. A one year low risk deal for Pelfry would be O.K. I like Bedard under the same circumstances. But I REALLY think they should try a...

I agree that pitching and middle infield need to be the focus. Remember, Koskie and Gaetti were not Gold Glover's at the same stage Sano is at. I'm not suggesting sano is a Gold Glover either, just...

Both already mentioned Game 7 1965 W.S. I was 7 and thought Koufax was awesome! Final game of 1967 vs. Red Sox. And just to further show my age...game #2 of the 1969 ALCS vs. Baltimore lost in...

No. No. No. No. NNNNOOOO!!!!

That's the $64 question Riverbrian. It's not like there are just 2 other teams interested in Capuano and/or Harang. There's a bunch! To me, it's more a question of how patient the Dodgers will be...

Jack, I agree that Morneau is poised for a big comeback season in 2013. That's why I would place his value to Texas as "high" and since TR can't "give his money away to anyone" if I couldn't fleece...

I would add that the reason there are so many teams inquiring about Gorden is that the Dodgers have stated he will probably begin next season at AAA. Cruz will be their 3B and Hanley their SS to...

Riverbrain, good topic! At this point, Perkins is our closer, if we traded him, would that make Burton the guy? It was pointed out that the Dodgers are flush with RH bullpen options but have...

One other point...Texas may have lost their best "thumper" in Hamilton, but they also rid their clubhouse of a major headcase. TR also needs to stress to Texas that in Morneau and Willingham they...

Mauer is the face of the franchise and I totally agree with those who are baffled by how under appreciated he is. We are not trading Mauer. I was very encouraged by the season Morneau had last...

I'd go 5 yrs. 80 mil or 6 yrs. 90 mil. Please reference the thread with the idea floated about trading Morneau and Willingham to Texas. This would be part of the rebuild. With the pitching staff...

I think the Twins are giving up too much in this. Consider: The Rangers are a "WIN NOW" club and they no longer have Hamilton (who has just moved to a divisional rival). You offer Texas Morneau,...

They should quit messing around with the Corriea's of the world and go hard for Marcum. If Villanueva falls in their lap in January so be it.
