Show me on the doll where there is a team that deserves to win the central. -
Yeah, it kinda is.
-
LOL
-
Well, yeah.
-
This team is very annoying.

Gallo hit a single.
-
Guardians lost.
-
It was a good gamble. The mistake is holding onto that hand after it lost. With that said, I don't care if Gallo stays on the roster for three more days. The deadline is coming, may as well wait and see if you can peddle him to another team. The real mistake was not moving on awhile back, or at least giving Baldelli better options to keep him on the bench.
-
Nope, he has probably descended into "minor league with an opt-out" contract territory unless he really turns it around and quick.
-
You're all being ridiculous. Flip your argument on its head: Do you think Scott Boras wants to sacrifice his relationship with the Twins front office over Joey Gallo? He's not going to insert himself into a baseball decision like that over a middling client on a one-year contract.
-
Well, yes, but I don't think he's going to do that in the next ten minutes.
-
Oh good lord, Royals, you suck so hard. How embarrassing for you.
-
Okay, what percentage for a Gallo K? 75%?
-
I'm not making excuses for the Twins, BTW, they need to adjust to the zone... but the ump is being VERY generous tonight.
-
Turns out it's a lot easier to pitch if the ump lowers and extends the zone by two inches.
-
Several aren't strikes in real life, either.
-
No, that's how the White Sox have been playing all season.
-
If it was another front office, maybe. But have you known this front office to sit back and let it ride in the past few years? If anything, it feels like they sometimes make moves just for the sake of the action.

Yes, please, but my borderline irrational dislike of Max Kepler is already well-document 'round these parts.

Well, this is an interesting development. In Ken Rosenthal's latest roundup, he mentions the Twins have a roster crunch coming up when Jorge Polanco returns to the 26-man roster. This may lead the Minnesota front office to trade away at least one of their left-handed outfield bats, though it's hard to predict which one. Trevor Larnach was recently demoted to AAA St Paul while both Matt Wallner and Max Kepler are hitting quite well for an offense that has struggled to score runs in 2023. That leaves Joey Gallo and it's hard to envision his trade return being significant, or even existing at all. The most interesting development of this trade deadline is that it's... not really happening. Nobody is trading anyone. Sure, we've seen relievers move around and some complementary players be traded but none of the larger names have come off the board. That's because so few teams have dedicated to selling. The Angels took Ohtani off the market. The Cubs can't stop winning so it's becoming less likely they will trade either Marcus Stroman or Cody Bellinger. As a result, teams are calling on the Twins starters, including Sonny Gray. And with a front office that somehow pivoted from Mitch Garver to Isiah Kiner-Falefa to Carlos Correa in the blink of an eye, we can't rule out this front office doing, well, pretty much anything if they think it improves the team.

They're not wrong in that regard. Trout can't stay healthy and is getting older while the Angels farm system is pathetic. And no team can buy their way out of a hole that large.
-
I suspect the Angels FO is operating under direct orders from ownership right now. And that's fine, I guess, but it makes it hard to call anything the front office does "dumb".
-
I'm not sure about their GM yet. Their owner is obviously a meddling doofus.
