  1. Then there is what you ignore, an efficient pivot to throw is more important than the speed of the throw. The number of times a game it happens the second baseman has to make that throw. The number of times a game a batter with above average footspeed comes up to bat with a runner on and less than 2 outs and hits a ball to the SS or 3b.
  2. Consensus here is often the same thing repeated over and over with no one checking for facts
  3. Obviously they talked to him before the retirement announcement and obviously not.
  4. The dearth of catching jackson or Pereda become disaster pans. San Diego used to collect and trade catchers. I don’t know if it really netted them anything.
  5. You have 23 days. Moneywise it would seem that if they signed Bell somebody is interested in Larnach. They just haven’t pulled the trigger yet.
  6. He is also joining the Twins development staff
  7. Red Sox, Cubs and Mets are over 200 million a year behind the Yankees and Dodgers. The vote threshold might not be impossible to reach. It may hurt the Yankees and Dodgers more than them
  8. Look at his pitch map. There are a lot of pitches in the heart of the plate. https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/savant-player/zebby-matthews-805673?stats=statcast-r-pitching-mlb At the bottom of the page you can see where the others go.
  9. A career 5.68 RA/9 for a reliever is not a good thing. Continues great numbers in AAA with continued bad numbers in mlb should mean you have no use for him
  10. If the hitter were more polished for their level, they wouldn’t be at that level.
  11. The Twins were put on notice that after many a questionable draft they might be figuring this drafting thing out
  12. The coaching numbers grew. The technology grew. The front office Staffing’s grew. The results shrank
  13. So the choice for Jackson would be AAA at 1.35 million here, chance a contract elsewhere and get maybe a million, or more likely lose a lot of money playing on a Milb contract.
  14. Sportrac and another source fast a 1.35 million contract, which is not almost 2 million
  15. Maybe this guy will travel more than Hendricks did from December ‘13 to November ‘14 3 has, 2 trades
  16. For 2024. In total revenue there were only 4 teams within 200 million of the Dodgers. That 200 million more spent on players salaries should get 28 out of the other 29 teams on board with caps and different revenue sharing. Considering that 8 more baseball teams lost a cash cow there should be enough to change the revenue sharing
  17. The Twins have passed twice on him
  18. The attendance did not go up for Winfield and Steinbach playing out the end of their careers as a Twin. Homegrown does not mean home love, see Matt Wallner comments on these pages. After his bad year I don’t recall any big keep Thielbar home movement
  19. Frankie and. Larry were the same age. One made almost 50 million, one 2 million. If a player is good at something they will make enough money. The good prospect ranking probably gave Frankie additional chances
  20. So now it is a bad thing that the team has drafted players playing. To read the commences one could think that Outman and Roden were going to be the outfielders. They were traded for. I guess wait and see and complain then
  21. There has been speculation of Horner being traded all winter. When they signed Bergman the reports said it was more likely to move Shaw and trade Horner
  22. Check attendance figures for the last couple of times they won the division, You are correct, you do get what you don’t pay for. It works both ways
