    Not taking their chances with Bundy at 60 pitches with Theilbar warming up.
  2. PseudoSABR
    SEND HIM DOWN!
  3. PseudoSABR
    This is a true statement.
  4. PseudoSABR
    Soccer? What are you even talking about?
  5. PseudoSABR
    There was hope Buxton would lap him.
  6. PseudoSABR
    Profound.

  8. PseudoSABR
    What?

    Let's see how Sanchez does at catcher. And isn't Urshela the better fielder? Maybe it's about getting Arraez reps in the field.

    All those scouts with their guns, when they can just use their EYES. The cops should probably just get rid of their fancy gizmos, and go with the eyetest in court. "Your honor, he was speeding, I can tell because I managed little league."

    Why would teams buy radar guns when they can just ask you to take a look?

    That's not what I said; it's hard to find better back ups for CF, a position that takes a rare-athlete to defend, so if you get any hitting it's all bonus. To be clear, no one is saying Gordon/Celestino are the best. smh
  13. PseudoSABR
    Not sure why the backup CF position is relevant to Kirilloff. I mean backup CFers don't get a whole heck of a lot better than Gordon/Celestino. I don't see how wasting a roster spot on someone like Pillar makes this club any better or at all addresses the issues with Kirilloff.

    Well, I agree that's ideal. But this the current state of an MLB job. Here's hoping he takes to it.
  16. PseudoSABR
    I bet he gets innings here. With the addition of Paddock, I think the Twins do a lot of piggy backing early on. We'll see him get 2 to 3 innings every 4 or 5 days.
  17. PseudoSABR
    I'd argue that the distance between Rogers and Pagan is more narrow than Paddack and the Twins 6th best starting pitcher. In that sense this is as much about 2022, as it is about maximizing control and assets. Clearly the Twins believe in their pitching pipeline; and even if that doesn't bare fruit early this season, they can add to the bullpen at he deadline. The Twins are competing this season, but, as they should, maximize assets, even at short term risk.

    You're just cherry picking stats to fit a negative take. Look all the way to right on b-ref and you see that FIP number? That means he was having extraordinarily bad luck last year. The Twins will have much better defense behind him than what San Diego was putting out there.
  19. PseudoSABR
    If there's not a deal tonight; I doubt it goes through. The leaks seem designed to move a deal along or test the waters potential names. I imagine the backlash from Rogers name being floated is outsized, perhaps the Twins could leverage that into more in return...

    I take exception to this. It's not a matter of effort, which your post implies, nor is it a matter of lack or respect or whatever. Some people's brains, like mine, don't discern errors because our brains fix them on the fly. I have typos, misspellings and missing words because of this in everything I write. And somehow I've managed to have three degrees in English, and one in law, having taught more than a 1000 students how to write. Sure, proofreading helps prevent this, but for one line posts, it's not worth calling out.
  21. PseudoSABR
    There's only one season of control....
  22. PseudoSABR
    If they get Gore in addition, I'm on board.
  23. PseudoSABR
    They can be interested all they want but they can't have Rodgers. That would seriously hamper the bullpen, with only making the starting pitching marginally better. That said, it is three years of control verse one.
  24. PseudoSABR
    Larnach is a lot to give up for Paddack's track record. His ERA and FIP are all over the place. But you could be right with them taking him out of the lineup. I would hope for Rooker honestly, but Padres probably don't need him with Voight and Beaty.
  25. PseudoSABR
    I don't know. Devoting 10 mil+ annually to a bullpen guy sounds pretty suspect. Kimbrel's rubberbanding. Brad Hand's dipped velocity. Andrew Miller. Let's see what the Braves get in Jansen. The Twins have taken the position that betting on 5mil relief pitcher is negligibly close to a waiver wire/project relief pitcher. That's probably smart. On this point, what extension would you (or anyone) offer Trevor Rogers?
