This Ted guy has a tweet about Linecum to Rangers as well and about Napoli to Indians.

Say what now? Im confused what you're asking?
-
Damn I hope this is true about Cobb!! $17.5 mil per, if true. But what kind of source would an NCAA guy have that Heyman, Rosenthal, Morosi doesnt have? That part I'm really confused about.
-
I get your frustration, but you're probably overstating how dire the pitching situation is. Because if it is that bad, adding Arrieta or Cobb isn't going to make that much of a difference. I think the reality right now is, given the "on-paper" offensive improvement and the current pitching staff, the Brewers are a fringe playoff contender. The theoretical offensive improvement and slotting Chacin into the rotation should come close to equalling out the loss of Nelson for half the year. BUT ... that is assuming we don't see multiple core players regress significantly. Adding Cobb or Arrieta solidifies them as a firm playoff contender. I mean, I dont think the pitching staff is bad... I just cant imagine Stearns thinks we're gonna complete with the Cubs, Dodgers, Nats with our current rotation. All our SPs (outside of Nelson) would be 3s or 4s on those staffs.
-
So we added young of the best young stars in the league and spent $80 mil on a CF but we're gonna go into the season with rotation of Anderson/Davies/Chacin/Two of Woodruff/Suter/Gallardo/Guerra/Miley/Wilkerson?? I don't buy that for a minute... With that rotation, we'll be sellers come trade deadline. And we're just gonna right off the tweet from Nightengale the other day about us looking to add 2 SPs yet?
-
I get a strange feeling that your heart is going to be broken. You think so huh?
-
Phillies have had recent contact with Lynn... Come on guys, lets just get this over with. Lynn to Phillies Arrieta to Nats or waits til June Cobb to Brewers
-
You know they're joking right?
-
You dont see us adding Cobb?
-
Like I mentioned before... Twins signing of Morrison takes them out of running for Cobb. It seems the Twins also feel their roster-building work is done, with chief baseball officer Derek Falvey telling reporters including Mike Berardino of the St. Paul Pioneer-Press (Twitter link) that there’s a “high likelihood” the team has already compiled its Opening Day unit. Minnesota did make quite a few acquisitions over the winter, including recent moves for Jake Odorizzi and Logan Morrison that added fairly significant salary commitments for the 2018 season. Some have wondered whether another rotation piece would make sense, but that doesn’t seem to be in the plans at present. Minnesota is slated to open with a club-record $116MM+ payroll, though the organization had already been in nine figures to open each of the past three years.

Inevitable Trade of an OF?
DR28 replied to Warning Track Power's topic in Transaction Rumors & Proposals
Todd Zola is a fantasy baseball writer but I definitely found this tweet worth mentioning. Everyone has an opinion but Braun being 3rd best hitter in baseball if all things are equal is fun. Definitely agree with that list. Braun and Yelich will make our offense go... They need to be 2(Yelich) & 3(Braun) in our lineup. -
What if we don't add a starter?

Guys.... Just may be HH is right about this week with Cobb joining our rotation.... We shall find out. -

DR28 replied to Warning Track Power's topic in Transaction Rumors & Proposals
So we're gonna sit our best players for between 15 to 40 games this year? Yelich would be sit for 16 Cain/Santana for 26 Braun for 42 -

I'm good with Woodruff and Suter battling for the 5th spot, AFTER we sign Cobb. Gallardo has been garbage the last 2 years. There's a reason why Guerra made his MLB debut at 30. Anderson Cobb Davies Chacin Woodruff/Suter A MUCH, MUCH, MUCH better rotation. -
Surprised nobody has posted this yet... Morrison to Twins... 1 yr, $6.5 mil
-
Alright, so this better be the week we get the Cobb signing with us news!!
-
Certainly doesn't have a lot of flash. But that screams "Craig Counsell rotation" to me. In a perfect world, the Brewers hold off on signing Cobb for a couple weeks, and Woodruff and Burnes pitch so well in Spring Training and the Brewers are forced to bring them north. Chacin definitely has the stuff to be a dominant set-up guy with his slider if the team finds itself with a surplus of quality rotation candidates. I fully expect Chacin to pull his swarzak impression out by August this year. Burnes Nelson in the rotation bumps him until we deal Davies in the 18-19 offseason. Cross sports reference but to me cobb would be like adding a top CB or WR... bumping a few guys down 1 peg makes the entire core much much stronger. 1 FA add here and we put the entire pitching staff ahead of the curve. Davies and Knebel are the pieces to move to jack the farm back into the top 8 as time pushes farm pieces into their mlb place. Thank you!! Add Cobb and Ill gladly let Woody and Suter battle for the 5th slot. Anderson Cobb Davies Chacin Woodruff/Suter

Did Woodruff and Wilkerson get hurt? I was going off what Joey Meyer said.
-
Anderson Davies Chacin Suter Guerra/Gallardo OMG no, I really hope this doesnt happen.
-
Where do you see Cain and Yellich if Villar hits lead off, 2/3? If not Cain at 6? How about: Villar Cain Yelich Braun Shaw Santana It’s not like Shaw is a given to repeat. I would go... Villar Yelich Braun Shaw Santana Cain Pina Arcia

$108 million is what I found on one site but sport trac had them at $135 million when they added over $20M in disabled list players. But I will say this, $25 million will come off the books after this season with Mauer no matter what. So if the Twins do go to $125, $20 comes off after the year automatically with Mauer after this season. Got it, thanks! Well, we shall find out this week if HH was full of it or not... I really want Cobb added. If we dont add Cobb, I will be really disappointed... Unless Burnes breaks camp in the rotation, but I highly doubt we have 2 rooks in the rotation. Anderson Davies Chacin Woodruff Burnes

Again read what NOMAAM posted. Does he have some inside knowledge of what the Twins are doing? I know you have Odorrizi still trying to get Cobb to Minnesota. No idea... But just curious what was the Twins payroll last year?
-
Again read what NOMAAM posted.
-
Why? Its a 1 year/6.5M deal. Read what NOMAAM posted.

Twins just signed Logan Morrison, gotta imagine that takes them out of the running for Cobb.
