  1. Come on boys, keep the series winning streak alive...
  2. Not surprising, I only hope the 91-92mph version of Thorpe is back. That version might have a MLB career.
  3. I literally cancel one streaming service every single month and have done so for a few years now. It's not a hard system to navigate, make it work for you instead of against you. Right now, I'm Apple TV+, Amazon, and D+. Next month, I'll probably move back to Hulu. The month after that, maybe Acorn or BritBox.
  4. I mean, honestly having a conversation is not outruled from game threads... or is it? I don't know, the rules about these kinds of things often elude me.
  5. Cool, And that hurts you absolutely not at all.
  6. I'm not interested in derailing this thread but if you can't see the difference between referring to a group of people versus LITERALLY a caricature of them as a logo, you're not entering this conversation honestly.
  7. Fixed that for you. And if you want to continue being childish in response to me saying something positive about another user's choices, have at it, see how that goes for you.
  8. Also, gonna call out @Squirrel for using Guardians in the topic title. I can’t wait to move past that old name!
  9. See, and that was a hell of a catch from Sanó. I will never understand that man.
  10. Yikes. What a weird play considering that Sanó was not particularly sloppy at third, at least from what I remember.
  11. While I don’t disagree with the sentiment, it’s a weird thread to pull during a stretch when the Twins are starting loads of low-value rookies who are kinda killing it.
  12. Damn, that was a textbook play from Kepler.
  13. Polanco is a ****ing beast right now.
  14. Sure, but that season was an extreme outlier for Young. It was literally the only season where he played 100+ games and wasn’t a below average hitter by wRC+.
  15. The Twins have a relatively decent chance to finish the season in second place, which is absurd.

      @bighat Yeah, Cleveland has gone into a bit of a freefall after losing basically their entire rotation, the biggest strength of the team. It was to be expected, I suppose.

      RpR - I did look last week and saw that the Twins were the best of all last place teams, however they'd still be in last place in every single division with their record. So the Central has the best last-place team at the time, if that makes sense.

      S'pose it's moot now that the Twins are on the upswing. Funny how KC, which has looked like a much better team than Minnesota while playing the Twins, can't seem to beat anyone else.

      The Twins have plenty of games left with the teams in the chase for second place.. There can be a quite a change in positions if a team has motivation. There is no reasonable shot to make up that many games in the loss column and leapfrog three teams. Making up 9 more losses than the GUARDIANS is not reasonable.

  16. Apple is working at a massive disadvantage but is pouring money into the service to compensate. Unlike most other services, Apple TV+ had virtually no back-fill content at launch. Considering that, it’s actually rather impressive they have as much quality content as they do in just 2-ish years of existence.
  17. I don't see Thorpe as a reliever, though he could certainly end up there and be effective. But the shadow hanging over Thorpe is his velocity and that has been the case for a couple of years now. If he's sitting 88mph, he's not an MLB pitcher. Full stop. If he's 92mph, he's probably a pretty good starter and maybe a very good bullpen arm. It won't take many pitches to know what Thorpe we're getting.
  18. That was a really nice play by Ramirez but no one can stop Jorge ****ing Polanco right now.
  19. It’s not me regarding him that way, it’s basically all of baseball. Anecdotal swings in individual plate appearances doesn’t change his current numbers and strong history of hitting.
  20. I’m not a fan of the low batting average in today’s game but Donaldson is still a handful of points higher than the AL average. He’s definitely aging but many people aren’t mentally adjusting just how low batting average has fallen in the past few years.
  21. He has a 122 wRC+ and a 127 OPS+. He's still a way above average hitter.
  22. His K% is just under 20% and he is widely regarded as a hitting savant. He’s anything but a guess hitter.
