    Hey, Rich Hill pitched 160 innings last season. Anything can happen.
  2. Brock Beauchamp
    Is there anyone else left, though? I would have preferred lots of things over Pineda but they're all off the table now.

    He played 140 games once, which I consider a full season in today's game. As for the injuries, don't get me wrong, he has also hurt himself running (last year) but so many of his injuries came from wild outfield play, which he has toned down a lot the past two years. And had he not had that fluke wrist injury that was completely out of his control, he probably would have played 120 games last season. And at some point, those fluke injuries will not happen for one calendar year and he'll play over 110 games.

    Yes, the writers get ad revenue from their story page views. It's how we've been doing things for the past several years but even as we've maximized ad revenue, it still isn't enough, as the maintenance of the site is growing faster than our ad revenue. As for the borders, I toned those down last night. They looked great in the test environment but as more people signed up, the page became a bit overwhelming.

    Traffic has been a lot higher than normal this week. It's one of the reasons we mentioned a distributed server coming soon. It's necessary, but expensive.

    That's not really true, though. Every team measures its opportunity costs and if Story waits too long and the Twins fear they might miss on Montas and Story if they keep waiting, they may decide Montas is the bigger priority and move in that direction. More than one big name free agent has been left without a chair when the music stops.

    Kevin Youkilis is the new Sox color guy and I like him a lot already. He's quite personable.
  8. Brock Beauchamp
    Probably the positional guys, yeah. The pitchers will ramp up a little more quickly than normal but coaches are still going to be cautious, I think.

    Lost a bunch. Spring Training games are starting about three weeks later than usual but the season only starts one week later.

    I hope Trevor Story is giving Nick Gordon points on his upcoming contract after the way he's looking today.
  11. Brock Beauchamp
    Everyone definitely looks in mid-season form.
  12. Brock Beauchamp
    I'm already excited to see the implementation of the pitch clock in 2023.

    Thank you for your support!

    It appears it's not airing on BSN. Any other options out there?

    Thank you for your support!

    No, it makes them more likely to spend the money. I suspect the team will slightly drop its payroll but it's currently $40-ish million below its peak 2019 payroll numbers. The Twins spent prospect capital to acquire Sonny Gray at $10m a season. Then they made the team worse by shedding the Donaldson contract. Those two moves make no sense next to each other unless the larger plan is to reinvest that Donaldson money. If the goal was to shed payroll, they don't give up Chase Petty and acquire Sonny Gray.

    Thank you! We worked really hard to find a way to make this initiative not feel like a handout. We ultimately landed on making sure our content creators receive the bulk of any donations. After all, they're the ones who bring all of you back to read the site every day.
  20. Brock Beauchamp
    Thank you for your generous support!
  21. Brock Beauchamp
    THANK YOU!
  22. Brock Beauchamp
    Thank you so much! Launching anything like this is really scary and hard and we so earnestly thank you all for your continued support of Twins Daily.

    I wouldn't hesitate to sign with the Twins if they offered the most money. They're a pretty solid organization that made the postseason in 2017, 2019, and 2020. They have both a solid core and a decent farm system. Honestly, the biggest deterrent to me would be playing here in April.
  24. Brock Beauchamp
    I doubt Story is that demanding. He's going to sign a 5+ year contract so his vision of the org likely looks beyond only 2022.

    MLBTR has a good primer on how we got to this point if anyone needs it. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2022/03/twins-rumors-trevor-story-shortstop.html
