  1. He's responding tongue-in-cheek to my joke about it amounting to a three-team trade. Or am I joking? 😁
  2. Full circle would have been back to the Mets, no? (Or else Kempner HS in Sugar Land, TX, but when's the last time you saw a high school make a significant trade?) Here's my eccentric report in another thread thirty minutes ago: Breaking news: BLOCKBUSTER THREE-TEAM TRADE Blue Jays receive Simeon Woods Richardson Twins receive Justin Lawrence Pirates receive cash Initial speculation has Pittsburgh being the big winner in this transaction. More on this exciting development as we learn about it!
  3. The commentary? Yes. The actual pieces moving? No joke. SWR is reported going to Toronto for cash. Unless the difference is substantial, the money Minnesota sent to Pittsburgh is (in effect) Toronto money. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2026/06/twins-to-trade-simeon-woods-richardson-to-blue-jays.html

  5. Tune In Again to tomorrow's game thread to find out!!!
  6. I was thinking merely of an alternative verb when I saw the headline, but making it a game is the next step.
  7. In that case I have been misleading people by suggesting we'll have closure by Saturday morning. Could be Monday morning instead.
  8. That's the slight detail I'm unclear on. Can the player be off DFA and on waivers? Then the total time in limbo could be nine days. I don't think that's so, but maybe?
  9. I'm sorry. The correct answer was 8-0. Vanna will see you off with a nice parting gift.
  10. Austin Martin on first. The comeback begins!
  11. What are you talking about? He got the job done. Just a little unconventional, is all. No problem! The ninth inning belongs to him!
  12. Just seems like the time between pitches is small.
  13. I'm just following on Gameday but is Lawrence working fast?
  14. Ninth inning, even. We'll find out if he can handle the pressure.
  15. We get to find out what our new Ninth Inning Guy has!
  16. If I have it right, the waiver claim period is only 48 hours, but it has to fit somewhere within the 7-day DFA period. The Twins have the choice when to start that 48-hour clock. That part of the rule allows a team to try to work out a trade, for example. Had the Twins begun the waiver process on Saturday when they DFA'ed him, we'd have our answer already. It's possible they don't plan to ask waivers until Thursday morning, in which case we won't know until Saturday. Other options, such as a trade being announced Thursday morning or earlier, reside between these two endpoints.
  17. This is not allowed here. The site Moderators will be in touch with you shortly. 😁
  18. The Fibonacci series: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, ... The Antonacci series so far: 2-for-5 Monday, 0-for-4 Tuesday, 3-for-3 so far today. The pattern is harder to figure out but at the moment I don't like the .417 batting average.
  19. Thank you, Luke Keaschall. This was starting to worry me.
  20. He was DFA'ed on Saturday. The DFA period lasts a week. A FO can begin the 48-hour waiver period anytime in those first 5 days - this allows them to try to work out a trade first. So... we should know something by Saturday morning, or we might know sooner, that's as much as we can be certain of.
  21. I don't think jinxes work on opponents. 🙃 Twins runs this year looks middle of the road. But they keep making very average pitchers look like Cy Young candidates.
