Cardinals 9, Twins 2: Bailey Ober Really Hates Missouri in March

Last year Correa said he would start hitting in June, when it warmed up. 

So everybody just relax. In two months things will be better.

If they're down by 8 runs it doesn't matter who you put in. That's when teams use a position player to pitch. It would be better to give innings to someone who might have a future with the club.

I don’t disagree. But, those innings, based on how the bullpen is managed, pretty much have to go to guys with options. And I’d rather have the top guys with options getting regular scheduled work in St. Paul (for now) than these random innings. The ‘value’ of Dobnak is that he’s a AAAA veteran that you can use any way you want/need as if he had options because of his contract.

He's on waivers now. 

 

Yes but he won’t be picked up this week. Give it some time when his salary has been partially paid and he has a larger work sample size of success.

But you told us he's a "legit major leaguer."

29 teams won't pick up a "legit major leaguer"?

If the Twins want to keep him, they can use his option instead of DFA.

Saving that for when they think someone actually might steal him away 😂

the DFA gives them the ability to add someone else to the 40 man. Strategery 😎👍🏻
