Auction commentary

[Minnesota Twins]

Doubtful. I knew wong's name as a prospect, and not just for the jokes either! Never heard of Tomlinson til I looked it up

So using Britton as a model, I'm thinking Craig Kimbrall, 15 million dollar closer, or put another way 16% of a 90 million budget.

Am I missing something? Why are we spending so much for closers in this league? I have seriously undervalued relievers. Feel like I got caught with my pants down. Chicago/San Diego, I want my closers back, lol. jk

I dunno, money just seems insane, but I'm prolly wrong here somewhere.

There are only so many and they are the only guys that get the saves cat. They do seem expensive this yr tho and it does seem kimbrel will go for more than 10

[Minnesota Twins]

If you don't want to pay in money you can pay in players as I have Miller and Allen I would trade for the right deal

[ex-Pittsburgh Pirates]

Well, real major league teams are offering Jeff Samardzija $18m per year. So maybe everyone has gone off the deep end.

[Minnesota Twins]

The twins got a new TV contract so my cap space needs to be raised to 130 mil k thx

[Minnesota Twins]

Zzzzzz...wake me when it's buster posey time

[torontobluejays]

Forget about Posey, he will cost you too much.

[Minnesota Twins]

Ok then just let me sleep till car go!

[torontobluejays]

OK. I have no interest in Cargo. Unless of course, I change my mind.

[Minnesota Twins]

At this point it looks like I may need all $50 mil for kimbrel!

[torontobluejays]

To open up cap space, you can send me Miller for my 5th round pick in 2020. The additional cap space may scare people away from bidding.
