  1. Wanted to throw in something Lavelle tweeted yesterday because I think he makes a great point. Also what does payroll currently look like? I’m not seeing an accurate number anywhere “Now, I believe this should be a year in which they push payroll. They still get more revenue from ticket sales than TV contract. Which is absurd. Crappy TV deal expires after this season. This is the year they push to win and leverage it into a better TV deal.”
  2. They better be ready for fan support to continue to plummet in the future if that happens.
  3. Arraez isn’t going to bring back any pitcher anywhere close to those players without significant prospects as well. You obviously cherry-picked one small part of my post because If you think Arraez’ batting average is going to net an ace or even a number 2 then you’re crazy.
  4. I’m pretty late to this thread but I just don’t think Arraez has as much trade value as people think he does. He doesn’t play a position well and doesn’t hit for any power. He’s virtually unplayable against lefties (one of the worst OPS in the league) and he’s consistently dealt with some nagging injuries. He simply wouldn’t bring back the pitching talent people would want. Also, fans would be livid. He’s a valuable player but average fans see batting average over .300 and go absolutely nuts. It’s 100% the most important stat to fans that really don’t know a lot about baseball. For those reasons I don’t think it’s worth trading him
  5. Thanks for pointing this out. Had no idea he was on the IL. Saw no writers mention it at all the past few days. Seems like most Twins writers have checked out at this point
  6. Does anyone know where Varland is right now? He pitched on the 7th and as far as I can tell hasn’t pitched anywhere since. Rocco cannot still be under the assumption that Archer is better, right?
  7. Rocco has never been shy about underworking starters and overworking the pen
  8. It’s like Rocco is trying to blow the no hitter on purpose
  9. When they lose this one 7-6, it’s entirely on Rocco for trying to get more out of Bundy tonight. 12 hits…
  10. How’d they find a way to screw that one up?
  11. Wish the twins broadcasters would get annoyed every once in a while, but they’re all in the Pohlad’s pockets
  12. Arraez wasn’t given any chance to swing at anything there. I’m all with you on your RBI beliefs but what a weird take
  13. Does anyone believe Megill will finish this off? I bet he gets the loss. just a terrible overall game
  14. Career 5.4 walks per 9 innings minor and majors and he swings at the first pitch not in the zone. It’s incredible how bad he is in these situations.
  15. Are you kidding me Correa? Guy has no control and you hack at first pitch out of the zone. Just amazing
  16. Just down the middle to Gary on every strike and horribly late on all
  17. He’s in the bottom 5% for chase rate. Not surprising
  18. Twins likely need 3 runs here to win this.
  19. Duran just pitched around 3 errors without giving up a run. Amazing
  20. That is 100% on Watkins. Celestino slowed up like he should. He’s not looking at the RF. Watkins should be fired immediately and should have already
  21. Regardless of who the twins 3rd base coach is, they’ve always been a closet Yankees fan
  22. Number 8 and 9 batters continue to have the best stats against the twins than any other team. Gleeman showed the stats a while back and they had a near .700 ops
  23. Yup, Bremer was just talking about that one as well. I have fond memories of Kubel because of that.
  24. Watching Yankees fans rise and cheer with one strike to go knowing they’ll continue to cheer once the AB is over has to be so demoralizing. The twins have never and will never shut them up.
