Penny-Wise, Clubhouse-Foolish: The Twins’ Growing Habit of Off-Day Demotions

[jmlease1]

I suspect that if this becomes a bigger issue, the next way the owners will move to pay players is based on game checks, rather than days on the roster.

I'll always prefer that money go to the players over the owners, especially for guys that are on the fringes of the roster, where it's more impactful on their lives.

That said, I doubt it has any real impact on the clubhouse or whether or not this makes the Twins a more or less attractive option for free agents.

They signed about 5 free agent minor league players in the last week. All wanted their chance. 

The it seems like the Twins do the sed Dow after the game more  than others comment is being petty. You do’t know but you accuse.

Adams sent down today ahead of SWR coming back tomorrow. A penny saved is a penny earned.

Too bad that Adams didn't get into a game. I hope he gets his chance later on this year. I don't condemn the Twins for doing this, but it's got to be disappointing for the player since he did nothing to be sent down.
