  1. No, this is unacceptable. I want to argue.
  2. Hey, didn't see him with a lead, now did you?
  3. Payamps has struggled this year, I don’t think we’ll see him with a lead.
  4. Yep, the starters. While Pablo has just been bad, Peralta has been infuriating to watch this season. He's dominant for a few innings and then just stops throwing competitive pitches for a couple of innings.
  5. Jason is one of our Brewer Fanatic writers. As for Yelich, it appears that a balky back was the root of a lot of his issues. It was never clear exactly why his swing changed but he started killing worms at an elite rate, which is not something you want to do as a hitter. A lot like late-career Joe Mauer, honestly. Last year, it showed signs of changing and this year, he's damned near MVP-level Yelich again.
  6. Oh yeah, I get it, I basically turned off the TV for four days and kept it off because I *badly* needed a break. Just a little surprising is all.
  7. No one has posted in the Twins forum all day? Just testing this to make sure it's still working.
  8. No pressure, Falvey. Just make a bunch of moves, get them all right, and don't spend an extra dollar.
  9. Per Dan Hayes (The Athletic) in his latest Twins roundup, the Twins are looking for starting pitching, targeting starters on expiring contracts. This shouldn't come as a surprise, as starting pitching is the team's biggest weakness heading into the trade deadline and the team has been payroll-constrained since their Bally Sports television deal expired after the 2023 season. It's unlikely the Twins are in a position to commit additional dollars to a starter beyond this season and even their ability to add significant payroll for the rest of this season is in question. There are two starters on expiring contracts that should be traded before the trade deadline: the Detroit Tigers' Jack Flaherty and the Toronto Blue Jays' Yusei Kikuchi. Both are on relatively inexpensive contracts and should be within the budget constraints of the Twins.

  11. And his teammates liked him, mostly. I vaguely remember one former teammate saying something along the lines of "AJ is the guy you love as a teammate and hate in the other dugout." Pierzynski is a pain in the ass but doesn't seem to be a bad guy, just loud and obnoxious. For example, he never refused to give the ball to the manager and instead heaved it into the outfield seats, he'd just heckle the **** out of opposing players.
  12. Let's head into the break on a high note.
  13. Wild that the Jays put Kiermaier on revocable waivers today.
  14. According to Mark Feinsand's latest MLB.com report, the Blue Jays are telling teams they are willing to trade any players on expiring contracts, though they are not yet willing to part with players with team control beyond 2024. The Blue Jays have a slew of players who will be free agents at the end of the season: center fielder Kevin Kiermaier, DH Justin Turner, relievers Trevor Richards & Yimi Garcia, and most interestingly to the Twins, Yusei Kikuchi. Kikuchi is having a solid season with 101.1 innings pitched, a 101 ERA+, and is making only $10 million this season. Relievers Richards and Garcia might also be of interest to the Twins depending on the healthy return of Brock Stewart in the next couple of weeks.

  16. In the latest trade roundup from The Athletic, Ken Rosenthal, Katie Woo, and Patrick Mooney wrote that the Nationals are preparing to sell. While Washington is playing decently this season (42-49), they're a whopping 16.5 games behind the Philadelphia Phillies and 5.5 games out of a contentious National League Wild Card spot. They didn't expect to compete this year and feel as if they're a year ahead of schedule and PoBO Mike Rizzo feels selling is the right decision at this trade deadline. The Nationals have several interesting right-handed relievers that could interest the Twins. On expiring contracts, they have Dylan Floro (179 ERA+) while they have two relievers who become free agents after the 2025 season: Hunter Harvey (183 ERA+) and Kyle Finnegan (184 ERA+). Starting pitcher Trevor Williams is expected to return from injury soon. He will also become a free agent at season's end and over 11 starts has a 2.22 ERA. Of course, the Nationals also have a Twins fan favorite rostered and available in trade, Joey Gallo. View full rumor
