also how long it has been since our LF production has been even as much as adequate

 

It hasn't been good but neither has Rosario since the 1st half of 2018.  He was not good at the end of his tenure here and he certainly was not a solution going forward.   So why are you complaining about a bad player not being here.  I am very glad we have not had to watch Eddie Rosario take up a roster spot for the last 3+ years.  Go ahead and complain about LF production but complaining about Rosario being gone makes absolutely no sense.

Long time Twins farmhand Bryan Sammons has been called up by the Tigers and is finally getting his major league debut. He always put up some intriguing numbers for a non-top prospect, particularl

Well it seems weird to me that you already had Michael A Taylor, and now you have Margot, who is probably the same type of player but they had to give up a prospect for him where Taylor would have jus

Only because I never like to leave a dead horse unbeaten:  Last 15 days OPS:  Alex Kiriloff:  .319:  Eddie Rosario:  1.235;  Wait for it....

Since your post Rosario has an OPS of .475.

Tyler Wells of the Orioles to have "season ending" surgery with a torn UCL. Yet to be determined if this will require TJ surgery or not.

Andrelton Simmons who is currently with the Chicago Cubs comes to mind.

Didn’t he retire in 2022?

Technically he retired this spring.

Yes, technically.

I seem to recall Bert Blyleven flipping the bird to everyone his last day when he was traded the first time.

Not a transaction, but Dylan Floro has been pitching very well for Washington so far this season. In 31 innings out of the bullpen he has struck out 24 batters, but only walked 9. And his ERA is a tidy 1.15

Cade Povich is getting called up tomorrow for his MLB debut with BAL.

Good for him. I assume he will be used as a starter ... or not?

Dennis Santana was a Twin for 3 weeks in ST last year. Claimed off waivers from ATL then lost on waivers to the Mets.

Yankees DFA'd him after a disatrous outing last night.

Niko Goodrum needs to keep his suitcase packed. He was claimed by the Pirates and optioned to the minor leagues. So far this year, he has been with the Twins (Spring Training), Rays, Angels and now the Pirates. He got in major league games with the Angels and Rays.

Man, Niko is this year's traveling man! If things don't go well in Pittsburgh, he can always join Jake Cave and try for a Rocky Mountain high with Colorado!

Aaaand the Mariners have DFA'd Matt Bowman. Michael Tonkin, Niko Goodrum and Bowman have all been on at least three major league rosters this year, with Goodrum now on his fourth, perhaps to be joined by Bowman.

There really should be some Waldo themed city connect uniforms for cases like these.

Jorge Lopez to the Cubs on a MiLB deal.

It's only a minor league deal, but could be a savvy move by the Cubs. Lopez wasn't totally awful with the Mets. Hopefully, a change of scenery will help him. Then again, I thought the same thing when we traded him to the Marlins last year, and that never happened.

Ah, maybe not the Pirates for long. He has been DFA'd.
