  1. Correa just earned a solid chunk of $35m right there.
  2. Either way, definitely not a big deal or anything close to it, I simply wouldn't have done it.
  3. I suspect this decision was entirely the opposite. People act like Rocco doesn't make gut decisions but it's pretty apparent he does it often.
  4. Two outs, runners are going on contact. If the ball reaches the outfield, Miranda likely scores.
  5. Yeah, which is why I don't like it. Again, easy decision in the eighth or ninth but not a move I make in the seventh.
  6. Yeah, but two outs with a guy on second who isn't dirt-slow in the seventh inning, a guy who will likely come to bat again this game. The likelihood of Contreras scoring where Miranda doesn't in that situation is really low.
  7. In the eighth or ninth, I definitely make that move. But the seventh? Eh, no.
  8. And yeah, so that didn't matter one bit.
  9. I don't see a lot of gain by putting in Contreras there.
  10. Smeltzer yet again works his black magic.
  11. Well, that was varying shades of pathetic.
  12. I would *maybe* offer him two additional years if he finishes the season decently, giving him three guaranteed years. Any more than that, hard pass. Gray is a really nice pitcher today but not the kind of pitcher I bet on for a long-term contract.
  13. Getting through this game using only Cotton is huge for tomorrow.
  14. If you're interested in a watch, buy an iPhone. If you're not interested in a watch, *shrugs*. They're both good phones with benefits and detriments to each.
  15. I heard Gleeman float that idea and was surprised at first but then quickly warmed to the idea.
  16. All very true. The underlying numbers may tell a slightly different story but it sure is hard to see the difference from where I'm sitting.
  17. It'd be interesting to see if you could bait the opposition to go lefty-heavy against Archer, get 3-4 innings out of him, then flip to Smeltzer for 2-3 innings. That could drain the bench early in the game or the opponent would have to give Smeltzer a big platoon advantage for one trip through the order.
  18. I can't speak to the specifics of how the Twins manage their players' health but unfortunately, all that rest and caution has resulted in very few success stories, Chris Archer being the only really shining example I can think of off-hand. I understand the desire to keep guys rested to improve their chances of good late-season performance but it hasn't seemed to make a dent in the overall health of the roster one bit.
  19. I disagreed with the premise of that story when it published and my opinion certainly hasn’t changed. It didn’t take any time at all to see Archer’s stuff was back, which means he’s a valuable pitcher to have on the roster.
  20. I get this happening after the season but it’s a pretty lousy move to pull during a division race.
  21. I'm sure Thomas will have a scorching hot take on it that makes us all nauseous. Remember when he didn't speak or write opinions? Oh man, those were the days.
  22. The site is actually planning to run a site-wide message in support of a pro-choice organization. I was going to link to PP but if you have someone you recommend over them, please share.
