    I saw someone post this online: Tarik Skubal, Framber Valdez, and Garrett Crochet at Target Field in the last week: 11 innings pitched, 28 hits, 7 walks, 22 earned runs. That's an 18.00 ERA for the three All-Star lefties.

    Shelton is not leaving the starters in longer for some weird ideological notion they need to learn to get through things or whatever, it's because the bullpen is absolute dogshit. The reason Rocco pulled starters earlier is because he could turn to Stewart/Varland/Jax/Duran to slam the door shut. When your options are waiver wire guys either long past their prime or who will never have a prime, you don't really have much choice but to hope the starter eats a lot of innings.

    Hey, lookit that: an honest-to-God winning streak!

    OK, we won a game yesterday. [Now] we win today, it's called 'two in a row'. And if we win again tomorrow, it's called a 'winning streak'... It has happened before!

    Can't find the exact piece where I read it several years ago, but there is a statistical argument that Johan's 6-year peak was better than Koufax's. If he'd pitched in a big market, I have no doubt Johan would already be in the Hall.

    "Tom brings a strong business background from running other family enterprises" I keep seeing some version of how Tom has this "strong business background" and it's so funny. You mean the guy who oversaw all of their tanking businesses that are run so poorly they had to offload $500 million in debt onto the Twins? That strong business background?

    I dunno. Having the top of the org leave with clearly no plan for his replacement is pretty much the ideal Pohlad poorly thought out half measure

    Obviously we're not seeing any major signings and we all hate the self-imposed payroll cap, but this actually seems like a clever move in getting somewhat decent return for two DFA guys. Will miss that weird Canadian, though -- couple years back saw him absolutely crush a monster homer for Team Canada at the WBC and joked to my friend we should trade Polanco and hand him the starting job. And then they did! And it worked (until it didn't).

    Yeah man, Twins should definitely model themselves after a notoriously stable and well-run franchise like the Nationals

    Seems like it would be quite possible to sneak Jackson through waivers and see if you can't assign him to AAA and thus have a decent backup stashed away in case anything happens to Jeffers or Caratini. Unless Jeffers is absolutely opposed to an extension or wants some ridiculous number, it doesn't make much sense to sign a guy at basically exactly Jeffer's contract if you were looking to shed him.

    You never heard of a dude named Joe Ryan? A fringy pitcher with one good pitch who is now a frontline starter?
  33. JDubs
    Did the Mets have a higher payroll than any of these teams?

    By wining this one, the Twins made it much more likely they can win Sunday as Philly officially has nothing at all to play for now. And if they manage to pull it out, that means two series wins in a row to end the season. Which means...well, absolutely nothing, but it would be a nice way to close everything out.

    Great piece -- would be nice to see more of this kind of deep dive here on TD
