    I clicked into this article solely to see Kepler’s WPA last night.

    Frankly, I was so disappointed that I fell asleep during the third episode. I love the casting of Sheen and Tenant and they're good together, but for some reason the show just feels flat to me whenever they're off-screen.
  3. Brock Beauchamp
    Yeah, last night was pretty bad and I almost never complain about umpiring.
  4. Brock Beauchamp
    Heh, edited my post at the same time.

    I think he'll get one more start before Pineda returns, right? edit: Nevermind, I think Pineda can come back this Friday.

    I think the theme of this game should be "it really doesn't matter if you lose when you're 40-18 with an 11 game lead in the division and put a rookie on the mound just to see how he does a second time around". The Twins took a pretty typical loss on the chin tonight. It's nothing to worry about until it becomes a trend.

    Except the Metrodome wasn’t built in the late 80s when everyone else in baseball was returning to open-air, baseball-specific stadiums. And then there’s the location of the Trop, which is one of the biggest reasons Tampa has such awful attendance. At least the A’s have the excuse that their stadium is old and that the Raiders spent two decades systematically making the stadium worse for baseball viewing.

    The reason he may not be a closer in Minnesota is because he’d be more valuable in a flex role. Dedicated closers are overrated.

    No, probably not by much. But we should all be wary of those teams that have to go through the grinder to make the postseason.

    The 2001 Mariners started something like 20-5. They ended up with an incredible 115 or something wins. They didn't do so hot in the postseason. Let's not get so wrapped up in the regular season record that we lose sight of what actually matters.

    I'm just trying to save you from the panic attack of a four game losing streak, man. We're all riding high right now but low times will come. Thankfully, this team has been SO GOOD that the low times will likely be brief and only surrounding by good times... but they will still come none-the-less.
  12. Brock Beauchamp
    They were modeled to be an ~85 win team eight weeks ago. There's still a hell of a lot of baseball left to be played, folks.
  13. Brock Beauchamp
    Yep. I can’t recall the specifics but if certain things were hit in the dome (I think speakers were one), the ball was still in play.
  14. Brock Beauchamp
    Without a doubt. The home field advantage will be nice but we shouldn’t be fooled by records at the end of the season. A 102 win Twins team is likely inferior to a 97 win Yankees or Astros team.
  15. Brock Beauchamp
    Yeah, my point is that the Twins have hung with everybody and beat most of them.
  16. Brock Beauchamp
    That's pretty much my point. They're playing like a 100 win team right now but there are still over 100 games left in the season. The Twins are almost guaranteed to be a pretty good team, more likely a very good team. Whether they're a 100 win team is still very much in question.
  17. Brock Beauchamp
    No, they're not definitely a 100 win team. No team is definitely a 100 win team on June 1st.
  18. Brock Beauchamp
    The Twins have a losing record against just two teams this season: Yankees and Philadelphia. They have a 1-2 record against each of them so it's not as if they're getting killed by anyone.
  19. Brock Beauchamp
    At worst, the Twins will finish the Brewers/Rays series with a 3-3 record. It's becoming almost impossible to question this team's legitimacy. Sure, they're maybe not a 100 win team but they're a very good team that can easily get better with a couple of key acquisitions.

    The Minnesota Twins: Bringing Sexy Back
  21. Brock Beauchamp
    Lindor is likely a better player than Polanco going forward, yes. In 2019, Polanco has been the better player. Polanco has ripped out a whopping 2.6 fWAR in roughly a third of a season. Lindor has come up with a 1.0 fWAR in roughly a quarter of a season. Jorge is the better player right now. I don't think that will be true going forward but it's true right now.
  22. Brock Beauchamp
    I think the Twins’ lack of an opener can be summed up with one stat: The Twins’ bullpen has pitched the fewest innings in the AL. If your starters are pitching a bunch of good innings, the need for an opener becomes less necessary.
  23. Brock Beauchamp
    I agree but the kid sounds like he may be the type who will press on until he succeeds. It’s worth a couple of starts to find out more.
  24. Brock Beauchamp
    I don’t see any reason not to push everyone back, give the starters a break during the coming off-days, and letting Smeltzer stick in a five man rotation to see what he can do. The team has a 9.5 game lead in May. They can afford to take small risks in hopes it improves the team for the rest of the season.
  25. Brock Beauchamp
    I absolutely agree that the team needs more, better relievers to allow more flexibility in high leverage situations. I'm only arguing whether Rogers has been overused.
