In fact, I would say 2022 and beyond might just be karma's way of paying us back for the egregious penalty which SHOULD have been shared by 19 teams instead of just 1.
Word going around now is Dodgers will make a run at Aaron Judge. Logical with $100M now off the books with Bellinger, Kimbrel, Anderson, Heaney, Price and 2 Turners off the roster. Needs include SS, 3B, SPs, RP and now OF.

That's a lot of holes to fill.
Dodgers gonna look a lot different.

I kinda hope Judge stays in NY. Make NYY pay a crazy amount and leave LAD with more holes
Josh James was non-tendered by the Astros.

He's now a free agent

I'd like to see him with LA for the Yankee tears and also LA isn't guaranteed to win the pennant so if we're fortunate enough to make it to the World Series we might not have to face him (although we haven't had problems with him so far).
Think you would have to give up Garcia rather than Urquidy. The Royals have another top 100 prospect 1B and their rotation is awful.Farmer1906 said:I don't think the Royals are interested in moving a top-100 prospect who excelled in limited time in the bigs with 6 years of control.MaxPower said:
I agree, though I'd say it's all a part of what else they do. Does that deal open up trading Urquidy or Garcia for a bat? Which bat could you get? Christian Walker or Pasquantino from the Royals come to mind.
Walker makes the most sense. No idea what his value would be, but Urquidy for Walker sounds fair to me. Strom might want one of his guys back.

Most of the bottom 3 rows in the image your shared look like Twins unis, although I'm not sure why they added the gold/whatever accent color to some of them. I don't recognize some of them. The new 'Twin Cities' jersey is weird without any red in it, but the hat is cool along with the grey pinstriped jersey. The 'M' hat is awful.
It could be worse; they could look like these (not official) with nearly the same color scheme:

Which reminds of the obligatory request to bring these back before the Nashville franchise comes to fruition:
The Nashville Stars?
Did I miss something?
Can't see him doing that. He wants 300 too much to go to a mid table team. The O's are young and have talent but that Division is awfully deep.
Has this guy been determined to be reputable? I see others saying he isn't but not sure.
No idea. He might just be a fake echoing others and saying it's his own. At least it's a person and not a faceless logo.
I've seen lots of places that it is a fake account.
I don't think MLN is even a site or outlet. If you search for his name and the outlet, just the Twitter feed comes up. I would not trust his info.

is 300 even possible?
"Someone said it on twitter" is oddly newsworthy to people.

He's at 244. Say 3 years averaging 15 a year. That's 289-290. Now a year of 10. On the right team like LA or us? Yes if he avoids any more long IL stints. But he needs to be somewhere he can rack up wins 5.2 innings at a time. That means a team that wins and team with a strong pen that won't cough up leads.
I don't think the odds are in his favor but he's got a punchers chance. And he may be the last guy with a chance.
his best shot at 300 is with the Astros or Doyers
and it's still a stretch

I think that's what intrigues him...he potentially could be the last pitcher to ever reach that milestone. I always thought it was interesting that JV never really felt 2 no-hitters was such a great feat because the list of pitchers who had accomplished it was so long. He always said 3 and above was the separator and of course he achieved it.Mathguy64 said:cone said:

I think he knows we're the best possible fit for him to achieve that goal and be the last pitcher ever to do it. That's legacy in a game that celebrates it more than all the others. If he's smart he'll take 35 a year with us...we shall see.
The active leader in wins under age 30 is Berrios with 72.
Forget 300. Cole might end up being the last guy to get to 200 for a while.

He saw their new uniforms and requested a trade

Scherzer and Strasburg

Bull pen sucked, and starting pitching choked in the WS
Oh, and Yordon clearly wasn't mentally ready for the post season at that age. He was colder than our DH spot in 2022
ROFL Tucker batting 8th. Damn we should have won it all that year.Farmer1906 said:

Got Hinched because we never played Tucker.
Reddout got the playing time
I still say that series could have gone differently had we started Tucker, I was his biggest fanboy at the time and a huge portion of posters here wanted to trade him

Don't recall this at all. The thread in 2020 about him being needing to be sent down was laughed at. I'd think more would have agreed with OP if huge portion wanted him traded a year earlier
Tucker was mentioned in trade rumors for Chris Sale, JT Realemunto, Thor, and others. A lot of people wanted JT.

I've always wondered how different his rookie season had gone if we had just made him the full time RF. It seemed like he got no rhythm with platooning

False
No one at any one point has ever been a bigger Tucker fanboy than Farmer
Love King Tuck, but trading for JT still might have been the correct move if it was possible. No complaints with how things have worked out though, obviously.BCSGrubber said:

Curious your thinking. We won the WS. How was keeping Tucker not the correct move?
