But he's allowed a lot more earned runs than Cueto.

Cool stat, Bro

Mauer on waiver? Nobody will touch him. Unless he moves to 1B, he is not worth it. Maybe same team who claimed on Moreau will claim on him but the price of 23 mm and rich prospects for return are overwhelming.

Twins could try to move him before he becomes 10/5 player but I doubt it.

Quick someone get Ned Colletti on the phone! He can still wear #7 since Loney is gone.

Sure.... Yankees can involve in the three way trade.

Mauer to Dodgers.
Ellis to Yankees.

2 prospects from Dodgers and 1 prospect from Yankees to Twins.

I am more than happy to help Yankees of the West. wink.

Nothing is going to happen. I wish this would have gone unnoticed like 99% of the other waiver moves because Twins fans are so ******* stupid and are making a huge deal out of it.

Yoto is English your second language?

This is true. At this point, pretty much everyone is put on waivers. I'm sure there were plenty of All-Stars on waivers this year that we don't know about. IMO, this only should have been a story if somebody actually claimed him.
Doumit was brought in to take the load off as a catcher. No National League team will claim Mauer since they can't get enough at bats for him and another first baseman.

Waiver bullcrap is usually done in private. Thanks to Tweeting, I guess.

It has 2 days period so it is plenty time for MLB teams to check all placed players out.

[themaninblack]

Oh I wasn't making fun just trying to make sure I'm understanding correctly. Actually your English is not too bad all things considered. It's certainly better than some who consider it their native tongue.

It's only Cleveland.

[Giantsfan1080]

Every win counts now Brodie.

[nepg]

Wooo! Royals!

[themaninblack]

Reds magic number is now at 24. Ya i said it.

[Hines]

Gerrit Cole is in AAA now to help them in their playoffs. I see him being a contender for the fifth starting job in March, but fully being in the rotation by June.

The Twins have to have the worst training staff in the league. Every goddamn time someone is "day-to-day" they end up on the DL 5-10 days later. It's like ****** clockwork.

It's beyond terrible, and it's gotten to the point that it's laughable. 18 days after Span was originally injured and after he came back for 4 games, he finally gets placed on the DL, and in this case, it's 2 days before the rosters expand. Someone needs to be held accountable for this ********, and it would be one thing if it had been only a case or two this year, but it's gotta be well over a dozen cases over the past two seasons.

Um, cardinals offense is going to be shutout for the 3rd straight game, lol

When do you play the Cubs or Brewers next. They will snap the scoreless streak.

Amen to that, hopefully our schedule is loaded up with the Cubs and Astros in September.

1 run in 29 innings, 1 god damn run????????????????? Ugh, Harry Doyle!!!!!

[BloodBrother]

It's weird seeing the Angels own Boston.

then again they really aren't the Boston Red Sox I remember hating. I don't even know who half of their hitters are anymore.

[YotoJets007]

Who do you think will win the AL manager of the year award?

For me, it had been Buck Showalter until Red Sox collapse and Blue Jays being old themselves.

Bob Melvin, Robin Ventura or Buck Showalter.. I am not sure which one deserves more.
