    If what Correa has done is overlooked given that is what his salary calls for him to do I would begin to wonder if people overlooking are blind, deaf, and dumb with troll tendencies

    Team wise the Twins. They actually have the same FIP which would suggest bad times for Pineda, better luck Bundy. Pineda vs Bundy, they are both winners for the salary they got
  3. old nurse
    Pineda still would have been a better choice than Bundy. Bundy had a few good starts at the beginning of the season but then Covid. I can understand looking for a healthy pitcher rather than Pineda, but the current hindsight says, made a mistake there.

    You are correct on Montas https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/split.fcgi?id=montafr02&year=Career&t=p

    Scherzer, Bassett, Berrios, Gray, and Manaea all had pitching prospects come back for their former teams. What starting pitchers in the minors would the FO give up? I would not bet this FO makes a trade for a SP unless it is yet another of what the people here call a back of rotation type..

    With injuries being such a problem I would think trades might be easier done than said. It might get the Phillies under the cap so the price might be reasonable but Hand, Gibson and their other decent reliever are on expiring contracts. Might not be a large cost in terms of decent prospects. Of course 5 years later when a prospect is having a decent few weeks there will be complaining, but at this time it seems like a good idea

    If Duffey doesn’t give up any runs the Twins still lose. There are a lot of ifs for the outcome of the game to have been any different

    Alcala was experiencing tightness in the elbow. Per Phil miller as quoted by rotowire on Alcala’s fangraph page

    Good pitching is like real estate. Location, location, location. Bad pitting is also location, location location, but location ends up right, left, center

    Madden had some incredible teams. From all that talent 1 WS, It is still on the players. A bad manager, though makes it quite difficult to win. The Yankee players bought into the system. Girardi did fine in the system. It did not work in Philadelphia.

    GOAT of first 1/3 season? Luis Arraez

    At the AAA level you have AAAA players that are need by the parent club to field a competitive club to fill out the roster and be needed in case of emergency. Look at some of the catchers at AAA, middle infielders and center fielders the Twins have had recently.
  14. old nurse
    Older players are playing at upper levels because that is where their talent is at. It should not be a consideration at the AAA level for a player Something always happens. A spot will open

    I have worked with this form the last two plus years. Sorry I don’t keep sources available for you. It is called knowing what you need to know for your job

    Sorry to burst your bubble but they have found organ damage and respiratory. Issues in younger people after Covid. The fave also found the fatigue lingers

    The internet is full of poorly stated points. In that regards you are not unique. Admitting it is

    8 LOB, Pagan is the pitcher of record but wasn’t the sole reason. It was a team effort
  19. old nurse
    The last paragraph pretty much summed up the problem. It is worse for the bullpen despite all the number of pitchers on the 40 man roster
  20. old nurse
    Your scouts have to have a good eye on HS pitchers. Berrios, Bungartner, Cole, Greinke, Thor, Wheeler were all HS pitchers when drafted. So was Bundy and a whole lot of others. Same holds true for college pitchers.,

    I am sorry that I didn’t take the time to look up when and where Green said it I did not say that Pittino did not say it, only that Green did . It seemed appropriate to be referencing the Twin Cities and not Boston. I would be certain that plenty of other people said it before Green or Pittino. Anybody who is a target of the negativity has probably muttered it. I even thought it while reading the pages here when the Twins were 4-8

    That’s was a Denny Green line

    Rodriguez Gonzales and Canterino are not on the 40 man roster

    The move to and from the restricted list shows up on y transactions. The team can not announce ahead of time without getting permission from the players. It benefits no one to announce
  25. old nurse
    I do not recall if any players did not, or could not go last year when they played Toronto in September. If the rules were in place then or not. I assume they were. That would leave the handful of players to be from the players on the roster who were not with the team in September of last year. There are a lot of new faces e his year
