    Two HBP? Oh FFS

    Ninth inning, even. We'll find out if he can handle the pressure.

    We get to find out what our new Ninth Inning Guy has!

    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.

    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.

    Thank you, Luke Keaschall. This was starting to worry me.

    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.

    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.

    Welcome to Bizarro Lake Wobegon, where everybody is below average.

    We can't have nice things. Or if we do, they don't stay nice.

    My prediction is: wait and see.

    Lawrence doesn't have minor league options remaining, so he stays.

    At 84 pitches, do we roll the dice, jeopardize the QS, and send him out again for the 7th?

    Chief texted me, "wanna know whats crazy?" No. I did not. Turned off my phone.

    Alex Jackson batting 2-for-2 tonight. As expected.

    Good! Oh wait, you meant....?

    Tristan Gray demonstrates that you don't have to hit only grand slams to register RBIs. Royce, are you taking notes?
  22. ashbury
    Yeah, being by far the best hitter on his team (with Jeffers sidelined) is SOOO out of style.

    White Sox to Twins: "Ha ha. You're the new us."

    DFA lasts 7 days. Within that period, if you intend to put the player on waivers for a demotion to AAA, it's a 48-hour process. But it doesn't have to begin on the day of the DFA. This allows time to work out a trade if that's the intention. If he's on waivers now, we'll know the result soon. If not, we'll know by sometime Saturday morning.

    Looked it up. Interference called in his most recent game too, May 31. So WTF? "Live and Don't Learn?" Bad motto.
