  1. I don't see any need to rebuild yet and there's no real benefit in making that decision on June 1st versus July 15th. I agree that Larnach and Kirilloff should continue to receive playing time but quibble with the others. Sano should still receive playing time, at least in a platoon, until he shows he can't hit at all or shows life again. Polanco is not a third baseman, he doesn't have the arm for it. Besides, what are you going to do, bench Donaldson in the meantime? That makes no sense. Rooker doesn't deserve playing time over Kepler and I'd argue that he hasn't shown he deserves playing time in Minneapolis at all. "Different" is not automatically "better", particularly when speaking about the defensive butchery of Rooker over the quality defense of Kepler. And calling for the DFA of quality veterans is the ultimate knee-jerk reaction. Donaldson will be paid by the Twins for over 2.5 more seasons, you really want him to go be productive for another team while the Twins foot the $70m bill? That's really foolish, no team would *ever* do that.
  2. They may have internal bullpen options, we just don't know yet because instead of having played 30-35 games, the Saints have played... seven. Thanks again for that, MLB.
  3. Report Created on Baseball-Reference.com
  4. I've never watched a team this infuriating to watch on a daily basis. They're not a terrible team but they're so completely and epically terrible in such specific ways for no apparent reason. Like the fact they're one of the better offenses in baseball but have scored like three runs in the ninth inning or later. AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HOWWWWWWW STOPPPPPPPPPPPPPP
  5. Twins actual record: 12-21 Twins Baseruns record: 17-16
  6. There's a red tab with a white up arrow that appears as you scroll down the page (left side near bottom of screen). Tapping/clicking that will scroll you back to the top of the page.
  7. Going to start cleaning up the ads displaying *everywhere* on page, hopefully can get that resolved today.

  8. He had a 105 ERA+ with the Dodgers. Going into today, and it’s only gotten worse, he had a 79 ERA+.
  9. It probably has something to do with neither of them pitching in a game for like 20 months.
  10. Dude, that’s a problem with your browsing habits, not the site.
  11. They’re going to be fixed, it’s a growing pain of changing literally every line of code on the site.
  12. Maeda has never been anywhere this bad and was quite good for the Dodgers in all roles, the Dodgers are just so stacked it was easy to move him out of the rotation due to the tiered salary.
  13. What’s he supposed to do, take Maeda out of the rotation? Who’s going to replace him, Captain Clownshoe? Because almost everyone he tries to put out there is a ****ing clownshoe.
  14. Donaldson is a tough call. If the Twins can move him without paying tens of millions, they kinda have to do it. That contract was signed to get value out of the front half, not the back half. If they can move the back half reasonably, they should probably do it. With that said, they probably can’t move that contract unless Donaldson posts a six win season or something of that ilk.
  15. I have ability to post html, which is not enabled for other users. I’m experimenting with figuring out how you users can post similar tables without sacrificing security.

  17. So that's a fun thing we can now do. Not sure if it will last or not, we may need to cut this functionality.

  19. He's also injured for multiple weeks (again), which is why the FO didn't extend him at the price he was likely asking. This is a circular argument. I don't think anyone is in the wrong, Buxton just wasn't (and maybe isn't) ever going to be an extension candidate because one side will always weigh the risk more heavily (as they should) while the other will always weigh the reward more heavily (as they should). I think too many look to allocate blame instead of looking at the nuance of a situation and realizing that both sides are operating logically and can't reach an agreeable solution together. Ultimately, I think the only solution for Buxton is to go to free agency and see just how much someone will pay him despite the massive (and way above average) risk.
  20. And remember, everyone, if you want a paragraph return (white space before next line), hit enter. If you want a traditional return (no white space before next line), hit shift+enter. Paragraph return Another paragraph return shift+enter return For those of you unaware why this happens, it's the default configuration in the publishing world.
