At least Anderson played in 100 games before signing his. Eloy, Moncada, Robert were all considered top prospects by a hundred different publications. I am not saying the guarantee money is the reason they all have had issues but I think it is at least part of it. Guys like that who come from nowhere and get all this money before even doing anything meaningful at that young of an age has to mess with them a bit

At least Acuna already had a year (rookie of the year) before signing an extension. We just gave our guys extensions before they even played or barely played

Another one who didn't sign an extension right away...

Vlad never signed an extension right at the start of his career, Eloy did. I think it has a little bit to do with it. When you are that young and you are already guaranteed a certain amount of money it has to effect the motivation

This is the problem with paying guys when they haven't done s%*# in the MLB, they don't care

Amazing how fast guys drop off coming here

I miss Jimmy Butler

Only we give out contract extensions to guys declining

Swung at 2 balls

Is it a bad thing I completely forgot about this?

Can we get an all-star talent in the top 5 picks

I think the pandemic really fucked with his development, IMO.

Burger really loves swinging at fastballs way inside

Went from "probably miss rest of Twins series" to missing 2+ weeks

10 pitches to get the save, nice.

Or we can give it to the guy who actually has closing experience

Bullpen was great until the guy who clearly isn't a closer comes in and lets up 2 home runs in 3 batters. Pathetic

Way too predictable

We all know a home run is coming

Of course Romy comes in and does that s%*#

Or not

Please Lopez, make this easy

Bullpen is going to have to come through. Just need 6 more outs

He has to. We can't keep protecting every good prospect we have, they need to work against LHP or it will never happen

Besides Burger, Vaughn has been our best player
