  1. While I disagree that them being on the no-trade list makes them irrelevant, if for some reason (I suppose I could come up with a few) he WANTS to come to Minnesota, then it's a huge advantage for us.
  2. Slight amendment... I'd include any pitching prospect for Matthew Boyd. He still has 3 years of team control left.
  3. Nobody is untouchable for Syndegard or deGrom Nobody is untouchable for Scherzer or Grienke, if their current teams pick up a reasonable portion of the contract. Other than those 4 pitchers, yes, those prospects are untouchable in my mind.
  4. I could quibble with a couple, but overall the list looks pretty good. My top for might be Polanco, Berrios, Kepler, Buxton. The contracts extensions are just soooooo good. Probably more upside with Berrios and Buxton, but the shorter control and the unknown costs hurt a decent amount. Worth noting, in my opinion, there's a sharp dropoff after #9
  5. As for the chemistry question.... As an outsider who never played baseball past 13 years old, the bullpen it where I would guess, Chemisty matters the least....because it has to matter the least there. There always seem to be people coming and going. The bullpen is used to new faces much more than the lineup or rotation.
  6. Rocco doesn't seem to agree with you based on the fact that he keeps batting him 3rd.
  7. Today it wasn’t even a discipline thing, he was just straight up whiffing on pitches near the center of the strike zone.
  8. I feel like it's turned into everyone's thing. Or maybe all of our game thread authors live out west.
  9. Something I've been wondering.... What's up with listing games on Pacific time?
  10. Positional OPS Ranks (Last Week) C - 1st (1) 1B - 18th (20) 2B - 4th (4) 3B - 14th (21) - Thanks Miguel SS - 1st (2) LF - 13th (17) CF - 7th (7) RF - 9th (12) DH - 5th (8) - Two teams above them are NL with fewer than 15PA Overall - 1st (2) Interestingly, Houston (2nd place overall) also has it's worst OPS positional rank at 1B, and for both teams, not only is it the lowest rank, but it's also the lowest raw number (.767 Min, .695 Hou)
  11. Target Field has a tremendous drainage system. Yes they will play.
  12. Every other Power Rankings I've seen has them in the top 5. Mostly 3rd and 4th.
  13. Twins are 8-7 in the final game of a series and 24-9 in all other games.
  14. Seattle has more than twice as many runs scored than Miami and more than twice as many runs allowed than Tampa Bay
  15. Twins Lead MLB in Runs Rangers lead MLB in Runs/Game Twins lead MLB in Runs/Inning
  16. Missed a week, sorry y'all. For fun I've added the 2018 final ranks as well C - 1st (2,1,2) - 2018 16th 1B - 20th (26,21,18) - 2018 26th 2B - 4th (7,8,7) - 2018 19th 3B - 21st (26,26,27) - 2018 14th SS - 2nd (3,6,1) - 2018 8th LF - 17th (20,12,12) - 2018 9th CF - 7th (8,11,3) - 2018 17th RF - 12th (13,6,21) - 2018 19th DH - 8th (6,6,3) - 2018 22nd Overall - 2nd (3) - 2018 18th
  17. 32,000 yesterday for a mid-week day game, before the end of the school year. I'd say attendance is picking up.
  18. Astudillo would make 12, right. I mean, he’s on pace for 9, so certainly not a stretch.
  19. Also, isn't that why we grabbed Ronald Torreyes? He's having a terrible offensive year at AAA, but isn't his glove well regarded? If Polanco goes down and we want the defense, isn't Torreyes the guy (if Adrianza is gone)?
  20. If it's a Tuesday, it's OPS Ranks! Position - Rank (last week, previous week,....) C - 2nd (1,2) 1B - 26th (21,18) 2B - 7th (8,7) 3B - 26th (26,27) SS - 3rd (6,1) LF - 20th (12,12) CF - 8th (11,3) RF - 13th (6,21) DH - 6th (6,3) Overall - 3rd (1)
  21. Let’s not forget those first two games, at home, against Toronto. Were we scared of them also?
  22. Should just be one earned run so far
