    If Buck's season is over, that takes care of the 40-man roster question. Buck goes on the 60-day IL, which removes him from the 40.
  2. Ski U Mah Gopher
    It depends how bad Buxton's hip is. If he can't come back this season, he can go on the 60-day IL, which frees up a spot.
  3. Ski U Mah Gopher
    The question on Jenkins, do you want to have him locked out at the beginning of 2027, or have him actually in spring training and playing games? If they call him up, he is on the 40-man, and gets locked out. If they keep him in St. Paul and off the 40-man, they have him in spring and at St. Paul until the CBA is signed and them they move him onto the 40-man and call him up.

    He played in May when Tristian Gray was on paternity leave.

    How did that work out for Oakland?

    If you get your TV from Hulu Live, You Tube TV, Fubo, etc.; ESPN whatever is already included in your monthly fee.

    If there is ever a good time for a bunch of rainouts, it's while Buxton & Correa are on the IL. Plus, the 3+ innings pitched by Ober might not be wasted, it might be his turn in the rotation when the suspended game continues in September😀

    In basketball, the Clippers claim Bob McAdoo as one of their greatest, even though he was on the Buffalo Braves. Look at the Kings records, and you still see Oscar Robertson. The only exception to this is if the league says the relocated team is a new franchise and the old team still claims the rights to the teams records (see Cleveland Browns and Arizona Coyotes)

    Let's remember, Gonzalez is about 2 years younger than the average A+ player. Another year in A+, without the 2 month injury, might get him back in sync. He will still be only 21 next year and closer to the average age in the league.

    A Comp A pick would make 3 in the top-50. Even better.

    Texas & Seattle play 7 more times (each of the last 2 weekends). The 25th-27th, Texas is at the Angels and Seattle hosts Houston on the 25th-27th. Houston hosts KC the 22nd-24th, and is at Arizona the last weekend. The Twins might be able to survive with Lewis & Correa on the IL until the last series and still might be able to climb to #2. Correa is already ILed for Larnach, Lewis for Gordon until the 30th might be in order.
  12. Ski U Mah Gopher
    10-day IL would bring him back for the last series vs the Rockies. Do it.
  13. Ski U Mah Gopher
    And the King of Mediocre WS Winners: The 2006 Cardinals at 82-80.

    Plus, with Taylor, they can DH Buck more without losing defense in CF. That might mean 20-25 more games in the batting order for Buck.

    The question is: what is the shelf life of a player who got this surgery in 2014? The Twins knew about what the ankle looked like and figured about 18-20 years is about right and offered 10 years. The Giants & Mets were not privy to the info before reaching deals with Boras. If they knew what the ankle looked like, would they have offered a 13 & 12 year contract, respectively?
  16. Ski U Mah Gopher
    18% with the two throw-over rule might not be bad anymore. We have to see how many of those SBs were off of good jumps with no threat of a pickoff attempt.
  17. Ski U Mah Gopher
    Fulmer moves to the less leverage 6th or 7th inning spot. Good move.
  18. Ski U Mah Gopher
    Nice to see Sonny have a great rehab start. But, should a rehabbing Major Leaguer really be considered for Minor League player or pitcher of the day?
  19. Ski U Mah Gopher
    I've known Tracy almost all of her life (confession: I went to high school with her mom), I can attest to how great a person she is.
  20. Ski U Mah Gopher
    Now you're in trouble with RandBalls Stu for stealing a great article idea.
  21. Ski U Mah Gopher
    Pace of play is a problem. TV has has added 30 seconds to each break to make advertising quotas. How about shorten breaks by those 30 seconds with an advertising bug on the TV during play, with an announcer's read of "This 1/2 inning is sponsored by..." That would shorten games by 8.5 minutes (with no in-game pitching changes).
  22. Ski U Mah Gopher
    I like it. I would put Toronto in our division. That would put the 2 Pennsylvania teams in the same division.
  23. Ski U Mah Gopher
    Anyone have the NESN or WEEI call?
  24. Ski U Mah Gopher
    Because most teams see teams don't want players to change their approach to hitting because of a shift. That might screw up their swings. Plus the shifting team is saying a single to the opposite field is better than a double in the gap or a home run.
  25. Ski U Mah Gopher
    I wouldn't call it a garage, but a manufacturing process. Let's see how the players on the backfields develop before pooh-poohing the process.
