  1. Here's a breakdown from Talk Sox on what might be available: If A Red Sox Fire Sale Happens, These Players Could Be on the Move - Red Sox - Talk Sox TALKSOX.COM As of this writing, the Boston Red Sox sit at a record of 30-34, putting them nine and a half games back of the AL East-leading Yankees, and four games out of the Wild Card race. Although...
  2. Can Paddack get the Twins back on track today?
  3. I'm going to try to do this once a week or so. Highlight a question and get peoples' takes on a subject. Which player do you think is most deserving of an All-Star nod? I noticed something interesting while preparing this question. Byron Buxton and Carlos Correa have basically the same xwOBA but Buxton is overperforming it and Correa is underperforming it by basically the same amount.
  4. My youngest loves Blue Jays, there may be discord in my house this weekend.
  5. I think the ESPN decision is partially declining ratings, partially belt tightening. It wouldn't surprise me in the least if MLB is back on ESPN in 2026 at a slightly reduced rate.
  6. I literally cannot understand why any fan has anything but glowing things to say about the pitch clock. The pandemic is what completely flipped me over to demanding a pitch clock. With no baseball and very little to do, I ended up watching several old games on YouTube. It took me about five innings to realize what was different and it was the fact that guys didn't stand around, ****ing with their batting gloves for 20 seconds between literally. every. single. ****ing. pitch. From then on, it was incredibly easy to identify the most impactful and easiest change for baseball.
  7. In a recent roundup on MLB.com, early results on MLB television ratings were revealed. They include: MLB on Fox is up 10% MLB on ESPN is up 22% MLB Tuesday on TBS is up 16% Perhaps most importantly, it appears substantial gains are being made in the 18-34 age demographic, a decades-long weakness of Major League Baseball. This is in sharp contrast to the World Series, which has been in decline for years and is often used as a benchmark for the overall popularity of the sport. I was able to find World Series ratings dating back to 1968, and until 2007 the World Series never carried a rating under 10. That slowly spiraled until it hit its low-water mark of 4.7 in 2023 as the Texas Rangers and Arizona Diamondbacks squared off. MLB and Commissioner Rob Manfred have aggressively pushed rules changes, largely in an attempt to capture younger demographics that have abandoned baseball in favor of football and basketball. Is baseball on the rebound with fans or is this just a blip on the radar?

  9. Yep and yep. You get the performance out of him when you can and if he's still healthy a month from now, maybe he's a viable trade candidate.
  10. Trading Paddack might be the right call when the deadline comes and the Twins still need offense. That day is not today, there is a reason why no real trades have happened yet.
  11. Have a good series and this road trip doesn't look so bad, considering the ridiculous travel, minor league parks, heat, etc etc etc...
  12. Yes, we have multiple editors with Matt Trueblood being the primary editor on weekdays.
  13. Hey look, a second minor league park on the same road trip! Huzzah...?
  14. Jax should absolutely be available, having only thrown once in the past four days.
  15. And I just realized the bullpen chart is not mathing correctly, will fix now.
  16. Twins burned through a ton of arms last night but the bullpen is in pretty decent shape.
  17. Well, it's another rubber game, this time on a different coast.
  18. Well, I certainly missed a helluva game last night.
  19. West Coast road trip. Guess who has two thumbs and won't be watching this game?
  20. Carlos has come back with a vengeance!
  21. Get this team back on track, Joe. Also, someone score runs, please.
