    Let’s wait and see if he can remain healthy and effective through August and September. And July. He’s having a great season, no doubt.

    Looks like a lot of work put into this article. I don’t know for SURE if that’s the case, because I didn’t read it. Any analysis that starts with ‘Buying’ is a non-starter for me. There should be a class action law suit brought by the fans against the org if real buying happens.

    No middle ground with Raya…very good, or astoundingly bad. No idea what to make of him. Still.

    Horrible luck that the Rockies finally started playing great baseball right when the Twins had to play them.

    Anyone else worry that Audra’s gonna leave us for a better looking team?
  6. jkcarew
    Could cost us home field advantage in playoffs!!
  7. jkcarew
    It was announced 4 weeks ago?!!

    Basically, in the history of baseball, actually.

    Remember back in June when we were going to sell high on Paddack? Those were the days!

    Well, first you give up a 4-spot in the first. Then, you have options.

    It’s the kind of performance that might end a pitcher’s season (or even career), but the Twins…. If I had a dime. While Davis’s big-league ERA is unsightly, his minor-league track record in 2025 paints a different picture. In 32 innings at Triple-A Oklahoma City, he’s posted a 3.94 ERA… He’s pitched 165 innings in AAA with a 4.84 ERA and 1.494 WIP. Couldn’t get anyone out in AAA as recently as last year, in a much larger sample. There’s always the chance lightning strikes. But, it’s the optionability. Gotta churn those extreme low-leverage innings-eaters.

    The author overstates the value of these returns using mostly words, and some bad numbers… Dylan Floro, a 33-year-old journeyman with a 2.06 ERA, was flipped for Andrés Chaparro, a slugging corner infielder with a .950+ OPS in Triple-A. Chaparro, for instance, is 26 years old, he’s had over 1000 AAA PA, with an 863 OPS (950+??)…all in the International League (almost identical to Edouard Julien’s IL OPS, in addition to being the same age as Julien). Meanwhile, he’s only playing DH and 1B in 2025, so his status as a ‘corner infielder’ also seems in question. The profile is much more “40-man roster depth” than “emerging corner-infield slugger”.

    “Dump”? No. Exactly zero people here wanted the org to dump him.

    The guy who manages a team that is 7-3 in their last 10…above 500 in a very tough division, with a positive run differential…and 500 against teams with winning records…and for a team that zero people expected to do much this year? Yeah…I’d hate to have that guy. What a mess.
  15. jkcarew
    There’s nothing that can be done when the pre-game plan had him going 5, followed by emptying the bullpen in game one of the series.
  16. jkcarew
    It uncanny how Rocco knows when a guy that’s cruising is about to give up a bunch of runs. Best mgr in baseball.

    Whoever’s wearing SWR’s jersey is eating guys alive with fastballs in.
  18. jkcarew
    Inspirational. How can the club NOT dominate the 2nd half after that speech!?
  19. jkcarew
    Simple explanation. Tuition goes directly to Maduro.
  20. jkcarew
    At a minimum, we needed 3 quick outs to turn the lineup over for the bottom of the 3rd. We got ‘em.
  21. jkcarew
    Depends on who that is on the mound wearing SWR’s jersey.
  22. jkcarew
    The Twins over/under at 2 1/2 runs just went to even odds.
  23. jkcarew
    Only one of them has a man cave with an MVP trophy.

    ALC records vs NLC… Detroit 8-7 KC 6-7 TC 3-9 CLE 6-12 CHI WS 3-9 Meanwhile no division has more than 2 teams with negative run-differential…except the ALC, which has 4. Twins are 11-14 in the division.

    Gonzalez has the highest floor of any hitting prospect we have, IMO. There’s Jenkins…but then there’s Jenkins health. Gonzalez doesn’t K…K-rate didn’t so much as blip on the AA promotion, and now it looks like the walk rate is going up. At 21, he’s doing what he’s doing as one of the youngest guys (other than Jenkins) on the Wichita roster. The fear is that the power never really shows up. If not, he would still have a good chance of being a mid-to-upper 700’s OPS guy…above-average BA and OBP…and corner OF with average-ish range, but a cannon for an arm.
