    Yep. His homer in game one of the '65 World Series. Don Drysdale supposedly told his manager after the game "I bet you wished I were Jewish too."

    This podcast about a NFL player survey of workplace conditions. An interesting discussion. https://freakonomics.com/podcast/when-is-a-superstar-just-another-employee/

    CBSSports.com reports this morning that Buxton will not accompany the Saints on their six day road trip. The cited source is the StarTribune, but I couldn't find the source article. https://www.cbssports.com/fantasy/baseball/news/twins-byron-buxton-takes-pause-in-rehab-assignment/

    They could also keep Gordan at AAA on a rehab assignment until rosters expand to 28 in September. I don't believe he has even received clearance yet to begin baseball activities. A rehab assignment isn't imminent.

    You probably could have worded that a little differently. : )

    The 2024 option vests with 550 plate appearances in 2023. He's only had 127 PA so far this season.
  9. East Coast Twin
    Is the remainder of his $750K contract void if he were to elect free agency in that case?
  10. East Coast Twin
    According to Spotrac, the 2024 vesting option includes a $1M buyout. So a team option with a buyout if he doesn't reach 550 plate appearance.

    I'm not hearing any audio for this report. Earlier reports are fine, so it's not me.
  12. East Coast Twin
    I imagine he'll be optioned to start 2024 when he returns from Tommy John. He's only pitched a few games above class A ball.

    To be clear, the NY Post article says that Boras has checked in with other teams. Twins are one of the teams "in contact" with Boras. The article doesn't say that the Twins "have contacted" Boras. Boras seems to be reaching out to the Twins, not visa versa.

    Is this referring to this morning's article in the Atlantic? I don't have a subscription, but from the title it appears to be a recap of the winter meetings. It doesn't seem like Aaron Gleeman is breaking news with a report of a new offer.
  15. East Coast Twin
    I wonder if the Pohlad family has ever used the code "Gleeman" when purchasing something.

    Clubs draft in reverse order of the standings from the previous season. Twins and Red Sox tied for the thirteenth lowest winning percentage in 2022. https://www.mlb.com/glossary/transactions/rule-5-draft

    I still have 500 riel from a trip I took to Cambodia decades ago. Carlos can have that too. Hopefully he doesn't check the exchange rate.

    According to MLB.com, Varland was sent down to AAA today.

    La Velle E Neal states that there have been at least two "reports" that Correa has decided to opt out after this season. La Velle doesn't identify the sources though. https://www.startribune.com/carlos-correa-35-1-million-contract-hasn-t-done-enough-lavelle-neal/600199934/

    Last year, the Astros sent Alex Bregman on a second rehab assignment when the team concluded he wasn't ready at the end of his initial 20-day rehab window. He had to sit out five days and then began the second assignment. That's another possibility for Sano, depending on how he progresses. https://www.mlb.com/news/alex-bregman-set-for-minor-league-rehab-assignment

    And the years before and after the Twins took Gorden, they selected Kohl Stewart and Tyler Jay with the fourth and sixth overall picks. So yes it could definitely be worse.
  22. East Coast Twin
    Sonny Gray to throw a bullpen session on Friday. May return to the rotation next week. https://www.cbssports.com/fantasy/baseball/news/twins-sonny-gray-set-to-throw-extended-bullpen/

    It also just means that two other players will become the union rep and assistant rep. Nothing will change in that respect.
  24. East Coast Twin
    That's true. 28 players until May 2.
  25. East Coast Twin
    For those games he is able to play in, he makes the pitching staff better.
