Would love to see the Twins choke this division away. Losing the last 2 took them from basically ending the Indians season to adding some real intrigue. Cleveland probably doesn’t make those claims 7 GB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
almagest Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Good for them. Can't wait to see Gio regain 4 mph on his fastball and improve his command. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hahn was good at selling and locking up talented players with extensions. Bad at buying, free agents and player development. Unfortunately, these are all crucial parts of making those first two succeed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tnetennba Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 I hate everything about this. I hate Cleveland more than any other team. Ok maybe it’s a toss us between them and the Cubs. Either way, hate hate hate this. If there is any silver lining here is maybe Cleveland can tweak a few things with both of them and they go on to have success elsewhere. But still, f*** Cleveland.

wegner Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 I'm still just looking for whoever wins the Central to be under .500 because it makes the Sox look like even bigger schmuks. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White Sox Park Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 I'm already watching the Marlins and the Orioles, along with the White Sox . I guess i'll have to start watching Cleveland also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hard part of those extensions - giving young players massive amounts of guaranteed money, while it can be smart from a $/cents perspective, it also opens up to risk in terms of how hard certain individuals will work vs. not. In some cases - we went so early that the carrot really was never even out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest of the extensions worked out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
