Mariners acquire Jorge Polanco from the Twins!!!!!

[bpj]

Wow...it's like being in school at home

How about this....let's be happy if Jerry didn't get swindled on this deal...like he has on virtually every deal since the Nola deal.

Polanco will hit what he hits...no need to pull out your dicks to see whose is bigger.

Now, please let the thread continue in peace.

How about you just let people say what they want to say and mind your business or join the discussion.

There's no limit on how many posts can be made on this forum so shut up with your forum policing BS.

You sound like a public school teacher drunk off your power over little kids. This isn't your classroom, Stretch.

How about you guys just take it off the forum and email each other or something. Neither one of you are adding anything to the forum and it’s a pain in the ass to have to wade through pages of your trying to prove your point…

Yes, sorry man, have to agree with this. It diminishes the quality of the forum for no reason and adds zero value. imo.

Posted to a civil, well-moderated forum:

Baseball Trade Values provides notorious volatility in its player valuations as evidenced by its Justin Topa valuations that fell from $18.5 million on November 29 to the current $7 million the following day.

BTV gave the Twins the clear edge in ultimate trade even with the lower valuation on Topa.

Seattle was likely to trade from its bullpen surplus this offseason. Topa was a top trade-high candidate after a breakout in his age 32 season.

The Mariners flip relievers, such as Paul Sewald, the way real estate speculators flip houses. The M's acquired Topa (BTV value 0.0) last offseason for the modest price of prospect righthander Joseph Hernandez. The Mariners then polished up Topa before flipping the reliever at the far higher value.

Seattle PBO Jerry Dipoto has a reputation as a prolific trader but another club needed to agree to each of his trades. One could argue that Dipoto finds trade partners because he offers value, often excessive value, according to Baseball Trade Value.

Hoping the trade will prove to be a win-win for the Twins and Mariners.

Perhaps the Twins forum is just a product of Minnesota Nice.

We're discussing baseball, specifically related to the topic even. That's more than can be said about half the posts around here in the offseason.

The posts that are wasting space and time are the ones whining about it.

Now how about it ice, we have a bet or no?

I'd forgotten about Hernandez so I looked him up. It looks like he's gone backwards since being traded to Milwaukee. Maybe the Mariners should try to get him back and fix him up.

If this post is an indication of the posts in a "civil, well-moderated forum", then we're doing pretty good.

What a waste of space of a post. Nobody cares about some random Twins fans feelings.

Joan's dumbass trying to control what we say is exactly why the Times forum died and we got this one to begin with.

That myopic view explains a lot ... and not just in the realm of baseball.

FWIW that post to a Minnesota Twins forum was written by a Seattle Mariner fan. That Mariner fan goes to other baseball forums for the level of discussion; he comes to this forum because he is a Mariner fan.

Ahh, so it's your post to provide info for the Twins fans, that makes sense.

You know how it goes, someone throws a jab, I'll toss a roundhouse and an uppercut.
