    An additional factor is poor team defense. Walking people and kicking the ball around is a bad combo.

    These are general thoughts but I want a level playing field not necessarily parity. Teams need to be rewarded for running an elite organization. Likewise, some revenue needs to be in play based on how well a franchise creates a fan experience. Perhaps ticket revenue is kept local as a reward for franchises that excel at fan engagement. While some sort of cap / floor is necessary I don’t want it so tight that you get the same benefits even if your organization performs poorly. Excellent topic

    Just a head scratcher. Still pretending I guess…..

    The Twins need to upgrade the talent level in the lineup: ideally by adding a couple impact bats. DH and First are the greatest opportunities. I don’t understand why people are interested in running back an entire lineup of league average hitters.

    Except for when we throw to the wrong base or don’t hit the cut-off man 😀

    I would like to add that I think the moderators do a good job. They let things happen and only get involved when things go off the rails. I for one am tired of characterizations that TD posters are all negative or too Pollyanna or anything in between. There are a lot of people posting on this site and I believe the opinions run the gamut.

    They haven’t “lost their fight”. They simply aren’t good enough.

    North Delaware State University. I guess they are good.

    Really interesting piece. Molitor was a savant at figuring out tells from the dugout. Certainly technology has to have taken this to a whole new level. In Morris case, the three fastball variations he throws the most don’t require much of a hand change so that probably is not it. My guess is he has gotten too predictable and batters are just waiting on a certain pitch in a certain location. As noted above, young players usually go through this as the league makes adjustments after the video guys have enough tape on them. If they can adjust, they make it. If they can’t they will be out of the league.

    Fair.

    It’s a variation of Ferme’s (Linus) Paradox. There is no credible evidence of life within most of these left handed hitting outfielders but there are just so darn many of them someone out there one of them has to be good.

    I think that is wise. I’m not trying to be an obnoxious but, for me, the quality of the writing doesn’t merit significant payment. If there was a tier that was more “donation” level I would do that just to have access to the user posts and comments.

    To be ejected twice in a relatively short period of time is very strange.

    I generally like the site. My only technical complaint is that when scrolling the ads throw you to a different part of the page which is annoying. To really improve the site would require better writing. Less hyperbole and click bait articles and more in depth articles. I would rather have fewer more in depth articles than higher quantity of surface level writing.

    Raise your hand if you think the Twins made a credible offer. I don’t.
