  1. I'm skeptical of anyone thinking Castro was going to be something, the front office included. But hey, it worked out so good for them.
  2. The 2022 Phillies were 34-47 against winning teams. The 2022 Twins were 39-53 against winning teams and missed the postseason by a mile.
  3. You mean like the Phillies that fielded 12 DHs last season, backed into the final Wild Card spot, and went to the World Series? There is rarely a "perfect year" and even when there is, the "perfect team" rarely wins the World Series (2022 Dodgers, 2001 Mariners, etc). Just put together a competent team, get there, and see what happens.
  4. Sometimes guys walk, it’s not the end of the world. Get to the postseason and give yourself a chance to win, that’s more useful than trying to eke out a bit of trade value from two months of Sonny Gray. I don’t care which hand a starter throws with, I care how good they are. And Snell is a good pitcher but I have no more faith in him than the top three Twins starters.
  5. Because you seem averse to using google yourself; https://amp.tmz.com/2021/10/12/tommy-pham-stabbing-photo-gruesome-injury-strip-club-san-diego-padres-mlb/
  6. Half the people in this thread are showing why this piece is funny. Y’all are completely insufferable.
  7. Yeah, personal stuff. IIRC, he also got into a bar fight a few years ago. There may be other stuff, too. I've heard his name mentioned many times over the years, rarely with good news attached.
  8. Oh yeah, the Mets might be a good trade partner, I simply have no use for Tommy Pham.
  9. The Cubs don’t want a salary dump. It’s likely they extend the QO to Bellinger this off-season so he won’t come cheaply.
  10. I’ll be pissed if this front office acquires Pham. Hard pass on that guy.
  11. Because Apple broadcasts 2-3 games every Friday.
  12. I'd have to dig it up and I'm not in a place to do so right now. I believe it came from Lewis's agent and the Twins agreed. It happened maybe spring training or early in the season?
  13. None of this makes a lick of sense to me. The Twins have allowed the fewest runs in baseball. If that's not a team you try to build out for a playoff run, what is? And the last thing this team needs (see sentence above) is Blake Snell. Also, Lewis has stated he does not want to play center field.
  14. For the first time most of us can remember, the Twins are both in contention and do not need any starting rotation help at the deadline. That leaves Twins fans treading into unknown waters: if you don't need a starter at the deadline, what do you do? Well, MLB Trade Rumors compiled their first list of top 50 trade candidates. The Twins are a middling team that is middling largely because of veteran underperformance through the first(ish) half of the season. It's a roster that has soft spots but no gaping holes. The lowest-hanging fruit is pursuit of a high leverage reliever but past that, the door is open to improve the team around the margins. What positions do you target first and which players do you pursue? View full rumor

  16. That's definitely a big part of it but the Twins have been exceptionally bad at sequencing. Their BaseRuns record is even better - it's fourth in all of MLB - and one of the "unluckiest" in baseball. They're drubbing teams regularly but that's coupled with just miserable plate appearances in critical situations everywhere else. https://www.fangraphs.com/depthcharts.aspx?position=BaseRuns
  17. Welcome to Twins Daily!
  18. And before anyone mouth-breathes on this topic, this isn't meant to show the Twins are the second-best team in the AL East. It's just an interesting observation.
  19. If teams were aligned with their expected win-loss records, the Twins would be in... second place... in the AL East. What?
  20. I think this should be resolved now.
  21. Is this happening on desktop. phone, or both?
  22. This is why we shouldn't get excited about blowing up one starter after a player meeting. They reverted right back to where they were the moment that game ended.
  23. Time to flip on over to the Brewers and cheer them on.
  24. That was five seconds of pathetic baseball from all involved.
