Correa’s right arm, man.

Gray quite intentionally plunked Garver.

I have to admit this is entertaining, though.

Ooh, things are getting spicy.

Looks like I need to add something to the word filter…

Wow. This is some truly horse **** umpiring.

Perhaps you accidentally followed a forum and/or thread?

Matt Wallner needs to work on his launch angle. Unacceptable.

You got us! We can't possibly read through the lines of your post! AHHHHHH WE'VE BEEN THWARTED!

You know what I think has hurt the Twins? Soybean futures.

This will never happen but you did a pretty good job of convincing me it should.

I wanted the Twins to pursue a more legitimate bat to face lefties but it's pretty hard to complain about what Luplow has done. He fills a very specific and necessary role on this roster, one that Kyle Garlick could have and should have filled awhile ago but that's water under the bridge.

Holy ****. Better to be lucky than good.

Dancing backward doesn't make that a ball, buddy.

His agent, Boras, has mentioned that he prefers to see Lewis in the infield. I'm sure that is coming from Royce himself, Boras isn't going to walk out on a limb like that for no reason. "For team reasons they asked him to play a position he hadn’t played since high school. What happens? He’s out there for 10 minutes and he gets hurt,” Boras said. “He didn’t get hurt on the dirt. The idea of staying within that framework is to me important for particularly a player of his dynamic. Royce Lewis is a great defender. He’s a five-tool player.” https://www.twincities.com/2023/05/15/royce-lewis-takes-next-step-forward-in-rehab-assignment/

Hey y'all. If you buy the offseason handbook, what device do you use to read it?

He should definitely keep playing the larger left field to maximize his lack of range and minimize his excellent arm. We need to do everything possible to never disturb Kepler’s comfort zone, ever.

I formally request that everyone keep pretending that Correa sucks. We don’t want to jinx this. BOO CARLOS GO HOME YOU’RE TERRIBLE

It's prospect voting time again! A quick reminder of how it works: 1. You must have an account and be logged in to vote. If you don't have an account, click here. It literally requires 60 seconds to create an account. 2. Review our current top 20 prospect list, catch up on stats, rankings, etc. 3. Have your prospect list in your dirty little paws? Then flip on over to the new prospect voting page (after reading the rest of this, please). 4. Voting is super simple, you drag and drop players in the order you wish them to be. After you move a prospect, the list automatically renumbers so you don't lose track of the order. This works on mobile devices but it's a *vastly* better experience on desktop. Sorry, that's just how this kind of thing works. There's no great way to make something like this be as awesome on a phone screen. 5. Each prospect has a comment section where you can add any commentary you have on that player. At the bottom of the list, there is a general comment section to explain over-arching things you wish to mention. 6. Don't see a prospect you want to put on the list? Just pop back here and give me a mention (in a comment, start typing @Brock Beauchamp and then select my name when it appears). Mention the prospect you want added and I will do that asap. 7. Once you're done with all of it, click Save. You've now voted! 8. When the voting closes, a new thread will automatically generate in this forum with all of your rankings and comments for everyone to read and talk about. 9. You can only vote once. If you have voted in error, pop back here and again tag me, asking to have your vote deleted. I will remove it and you can vote again. Voting will close at end of day Tuesday August 15th!

I think FanGraphs' WAR is a little better at valuing the things a pitcher can control and Arraez and Lopez are in a virtual lock there with 3.2 and 3.3 fWAR. And that checks out with Lopez, particularly if you look at his gaudy baseball savant page below. It was a good trade. I like both players a lot. I hope everyone does well.

The Twins offense has scored only nine fewer runs than the Blue Jays offense. The Twins offense has scored 25 more runs than the Yankees offense.
