    I have no idea but given his size and delivery, I suspect a move to the bullpen won't be all that beneficial for him. So I'm fine trying run him out there every fifth/sixth day for awhile longer to see what happens.

    Well, I see all of you wasted NO TIME AT ALL learning how to hammer that "disagree" reaction.
  4. Brock Beauchamp
    This article is satire, just so you know.

    Courtesy of @Fire Dan Gladden, we have a slight tweak to reactions on Twins Daily. They asked for a bit more diversity in the reacts and I thought the input was good so we're giving it a shot. We replaced the Like icon with a thumbs up. We added a Love react and moved the heart to that. We removed Yikes and changed it to Disagree. If you have input on this, please give it here.

    Gleeman has stated they have punted on the question but that could just be them assuming somebody is going to get hurt before it becomes a real option.

    In 2021, the Brewers were wildly successful with a six man rotation and would have done it again in 2022 if not for injuries. In 2022, the Astros were wildly successful with a six man rotation. Honestly, I think the bigger indictment of the front office is that they're not strongly considering a six man rotation.
  8. Brock Beauchamp
    Ober has an option remaining, though, and it's unlikely all six guys make it to Opening Day healthy. Personally, if that magically happens, I'd open the season with a six man rotation.
  9. Brock Beauchamp
    I hate the idea of moving Ober to the pen and suspect the front office feels the same way. I'm pretty okay with Winder going to the pen.

    Phil Miller reported that Twins President of Baseball Operations Derek Falvey said the bullpen is not a priority right now. The Twins did a good job of addressing the bullpen at the last trade deadline and shuffling some pieces led to the Twins being middle of the pack overall. But given the acquisition of Carlos Correa, Joey Gallo, and Pablo Lopez, this feels like a re-hash of previous offseasons, the last two of which has gone very poorly for the Twins in regards to fielding a good bullpen in the first half of the season. Given the availability of marginal but solid relievers and the low cost of acquiring one as insurance against Jorge Lopez, Griffin Jax, Emilio Pagan, and others, I don't see why this decision is being made once again.

    Sarcasm aside about Joey Gallo, he's a good upside play but on a roster that still doesn't need his offensive profile. Trade Kepler and the Gallo deal gets a lot better.
  13. Brock Beauchamp
    Point: Give Joey Gallo a Chance Counterpoint: no

    I think wRC+ does a slightly better job balancing offense but as you said, the difference between wRC+ and OPS+ is often so small it doesn’t matter. I also like FG’s defensive metrics and options better than BR. I rarely use BR for anything if I’m looking into defense.
  15. Brock Beauchamp
    For WAR and wRC+, I like Fangraphs. If I'm in a hurry and just want a general view of a player or I want easy access to splits, I use B-Ref. If I'm really digging into a player and want to know how each piece of their toolkit grades out, Baseball Savant.

    I see a lot of people are claiming RSNs in their current state are financially unviable and it's not clear that's the case. What Sinclair did was take on massive amounts of debt to buy the RSNs, after which Covid happened then inflation happened. It's likely their interest rates on this debt skyrocketed and when coupled with decreased income due to Covid (along with their asinine decisions re: streaming platforms), it all came home to roost in a hurry. I'm not defending the current RSN system - from a user perspective, it's ****ing awful - but I'm not entirely convinced it's financially broken, at least not yet. It will be someday but I'm not convinced we're quite at that day.
  18. Brock Beauchamp
    Hmm, I'm gonna hot take this a bit: Correa, Buxton, Ryan, Kirilloff, Miranda, P Lopez
  19. Brock Beauchamp
    I'll always root for Randy Dobnak. As for him making a comeback, hard to say. He has the stuff to be a marginal MLB starter but the finger injury and its persistence has me more than a little bit confused.
  20. Brock Beauchamp
    Reports are coming in that Tyler Mahle looks and feels great. You hardly even notice the duct tape wrapped around his shoulder.
  21. Brock Beauchamp
    Heh. I actually learned this last night while reading a novel. Always fun to realize you've been doing something wrong for about 35 years.

      Thanks!

    I hope the NBA, NHL, and MLB team up together to buy the Bally RSNs, which is probably what they should have done when Fox sold. If not that, sell to a new media company like Amazon or Apple and let them dismantle this archaic system.
  24. Brock Beauchamp
    Well, this just breaks my heart.
