WHAT HAVE YOU SEEN THAT NO ONE HERE HAS-  Full of b.s.

Gee Golly Wally, what Major League Games did your hero play in?

We all want to know.

Yes, a Short Stop and an Outfielder.😅

One is a AAAA player who considered retiring before spring training because even he knew his talent limitations vs. a #5 overall draft pick who is a potential cornerstone player.  

We all know you think you can win championships with fringe and AAAA type players filling the roster but that is not reality.

He is good for Laughs  only

Buxton GIDP should not be happening 🙄

[Tlaker]

Mods…. can you please help keep the banter civil today? I think you are well aware of the three guys who need to dial it back a bit. It’s the top of the first for crying out loud…..

They have him under contract through 2030. I don’t think I would eat 3 years $44m of my best player and fan favorite.

it would be like Buxton (if he were to flake out, which he wouldn’t) getting DFA’d.

its fair to question Marte’s judgement, but I’d hold back the pitchforks and torches a little while longer

Breach of contract refuse to pay him anything ever again and work 24×7×365 towards league banishment.

Hitting home runs in AAA, means very, very little in the Majors.  Gray's glove is his weak spot that keeps him out.

Byron is  ktlling us  lately ,  Luke nice job-again

Gray's bat and glove keep him out of the major leagues.  And Jenkins has been crushing the ball and hitting everything not just home runs, but you only want to see what you want to see.

Wally The Beerman is on today? I have your card....

[Vanimal46]

He’s beating the door down at this point. Call him up 

[thelanges5]

Buehler with 10 pitches, Ober with 20. Shelty likes his aggressive hitters. I do not.

He needs to be dropped in the order, as Larnach was. Or just send anyone on base when he's up.

Come on...I would recommend that you put him in CF and use Buxton in St Paul to practice hitting. .he should have rehabbed there before returning...

The Twins Ks were Way down yesterday but their offense still shut down early.

They have been doing this all series, trying to ambush the pitcher, but you have to make better contact if you are going to this.

Veterans have the option to rehab or not and many unfortunately choose not to.

We love to hype up prospects, then come up with any reason not to call them up. The offense needs a spark to go on a winning streak… Who better than a top 10 prospect in all of baseball who’s hitting the cover off the ball?

Too bad they don’t have a roster spot for him 🤣

Would like to see Jenkins on t his team to end year. They will bring up Trustan Gray instead.

Interesting to note that Cullpepper has done well. Why not Jenkins...

Mets sneak up and tie Chisox in the ninth.
