  1. Owner John Sherman proposes to build a $2B stadium, entertainment district in or near downtown Kansas City. https://www.kshb.com/sports/royals-to-leave-kauffman-stadium-seek-2b-plan-for-stadium-entertainment-district-in-missouri
  2. 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.
  3. According to MLB.com, Varland was sent down to AAA today.
  4. 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/
  5. MLB's latest offer is a hard $181 million in guaranteed spending, with each team unable to exceed their allocated limit. The union wants at least $260 million guaranteed, with teams allowed to exceed their limits up to 20% before incurring a loss of a draft pick. The deadline for a potential agreement is 25 July. MLB has offered to get rid of the qualifying offer system for impending free agents if a draft agreement can be reached. https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/34249909/sources-mlb-mlbpa-remain-80m-apart-international-draft-money
  6. 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
  7. Pitchers have up to thirty days for a rehab assignment. Those recovering from Tommy John can receive up to three additional ten day extensions.
  8. 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.
  9. Sano begins his rehab assignment today. https://www.mlb.com/news/twins-injuries-and-roster-moves
  10. Dan Hayes says Johnson's status for the rest of the season is not yet known.
  11. The Guardian's radio announcer Tom Hamilton a few days ago ripped Sano for being "fat." Perhaps that's what you heard. Or perhaps there now multiple sources. https://larrybrownsports.com/baseball/cleveland-announcer-tom-hamilton-miguel-sano-fat/599446
  12. Aaron Gleeman in yesterday’s Gleeman and the Geek said Maeda was had the option of continuing his rehab in Fort Myers or moving it to St. Paul. He chose St. Paul so he could be near his teammates. I don’t think the timeline of his rehab has changed, whatever timeline that may be.
  13. 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/
  14. It also just means that two other players will become the union rep and assistant rep. Nothing will change in that respect.
  15. He was talking about overestimating Thorpe's value, not Archer's.
  16. Except that four owners voted against the latest MLB proposal, According to Andy Martino, additional owners would have voted "no" to any proposal with an increased CBT above $220M. Since 75% of ownership group have to agree to any agreement, reaching a midpoint compromise doesn't seem so easy.
  17. No one player but the 1984 Twins made me a baseball fan.
  18. .181 batting average in 127 at bats in 1975 (-0.5 WAR).
  19. Buzz Stephen pitched two games for the Twins in 1968. Apparently he wasn't around long enough to get his photo taken in a Twins uniform. The Seattle Pilots selected him in the 1969 expansion draft. Topps used the same photo for his 1969 card.
  20. Charley Walters. 6 2/3 innings as a Twin in 1969.
  21. Perhaps a spoonful of sugar before every at bat?
  22. For those games he is able to play in, he makes the pitching staff better.
  23. 1. Go back to four divisions. 2. Only division winners go to the playoffs. 3. No interleague play. 4. Allow ties after ten innings. 5. Increase major and minor league minimum salaries. 6. No more "everybody clap your hands!" or Addams family theme songs at the ballpark.
