  1. Not implying anything. But how the hell do you miss inside by that much twice in 1 AB
  2. He's had some rough ABs vs lefties this weekend. But I agree he needs to face them until he proves one way or another. Not just 5 or 6 at bats
  3. So not to be a jerk. But all the history of the Cleveland franchise. Was it changed to Guardians. As if they never were the Native Americans. Or the HOF plaques of players inducted. Were they changed?
  4. I disagree. I think they have enough talent. But It'll require drastic measures starting with moving Buxton off as the sole DH. His numbers have been in a free fall since the end of April. That's 6 weeks of very little production from the DH spot. I didn't look to see what the Twins got from the DH spot while he was on the IL but it had to be better than when he was in there. Is he slumping because he's hurt? Idk. But if that's the case. Get him healthy. Correa. His numbers have to improve unless he's not healthy. Don't know how much that PF is affecting him.
  5. Joey Wentz just added his name in the Cy Young award talk
  6. Winning a Silver Slugger award SHOULDN'T have anything to do with a Gold Glove award. But unfortunately it does
  7. Nah. He's going to homer and be proclaimed as the greatest player of all time
  8. I've noticed the Tigers have no problem moving HOF player Cabrera down in the lineup due to his drop-off in performance as his career comes to a close but the Twins won't make those changes to their under performing stars. Just to shake things up. I don't think Miggy is too concerned about it.
  9. Juliens error. Scored a hit. And it was an error in 2 ways. #1 cutting in front of Correa and taking his momentum towards 3rd base and #2 botching the play. And Solano getting caught at 3rd potentially taking away a crooked number. Not saying they would have won with the way they hit, but it sure didn't help
  10. A lot of Gold Gloves have been won on past performance. It's a popularity contest sometimes. As per the Mattingly over Hrbek comparison. And if you're using the metrics, you have to use them all the time. Not just when they fit an agenda. 2 cases in point. The official scorer gave hits on balls that were errors in the past 2 days. The Lewis overthrow and Juliens grounder last night. My point being is that scorers make decisions on how it affects their guy.
  11. Agree. The official scorers are not unbiased any longer.
  12. Well based on that Graph I'd say the obvious answer is DFA Kepler. Where was Correa at 10 days ago? How much did his wRC+ rise in the past 10 games? Larnach is closer to being above avg than Kepler is to being just avg.
  13. And just to follow up. When Milwaukee started Burnes the other night it was a right handed heavy lineup because Burnes has reverse splits. I get it. But is the manager basing his decisions on what the hitters do or what the pitchers do in situations. It seems like they want to manipulate these to justifiy the moves
  14. Most of the best 1st baseman are sweet swinging left handed hitters. Grace Mattingly Clark McGriff. I can list more. I don't remember them being platooned when they were facing the Tom Glavines or Randy Johnsons of their time. I'm pretty sure that wouldn't go over well. If Kiriloff is the hitter they think he is then run him out there
  15. Why limit it to top 5. Should have been his top 25 biggest meltdowns as a Twin so we could really cringe. Satire
