    It was always going to be hard for him to keep up hitting in the .300s. A mini-slump shouldn't be surprising.

    Imagine if you went traveling the last week of July last year and missed what happened then!

    Fantastic... and he's out of options next year, so he will have to be on the 2027 Opening Day roster without any experience in the majors. Not ideal!

    Nice to see Lewis finally get demoted, I'm not sure what took them so long. For a team that seems to think they are competing and calling up a vet like Arcia over Culpepper, they sure waited a long time watching Lewis continually harm the team time and time again. I get why they are waiting on Culpepper, he's doing fine at AAA but isn't ready yet. We should see him later in the season. I'm not convinced Arcia does much at the plate, his AAA hitting reminds me of when we had to call up Tim Beckham when he had an OPS of > 1.000, just for him to hit .080 in the majors. Rough news on Jeffers. I thought Caratini would be a good backup plan in case anything happened to him before the season started, but now he's hitting like Vazquez last year, and the Caratini / Jackson combo is going to be rough offensively. Not many teams have much catching depth. And the folks who wanted Topa DFA'd after Spring Training were right. ERA of 8, WHIP of 2, and he has the most appearances for pitchers on the team... he doesn't look like the same pitcher he was last year. But that should have been in consideration for a 35 year old with a track record of 2 decent years as a middle reliever. This guy was expected to be a high leverage reliever for us coming out of Spring Training!

    Vazquez has gotten on base 3 times today...

    Orze is the one guy I trust in the pen right now... the bar is on the floor.

    It's worth noting that Ross has a career .690 OPS in over 1000 PAs at AA. Looks like they are training him for the Willi Castro role playing at nearly every position this year.
  9. Danchat
    Brewers are 0 for 11 with RISP today... Twins are 0 for 1. Wow.
  10. Danchat
    Only 18 career saves for Garcia in his 16 year career... the Twins are really showing a lot of faith in this guy.

    Clemens really is a feast or famine hitter. Through May 9th, he was hitting .184 with .637 OPS and 3 HRs and 4 2Bs, through the 10th to the 17th he is hitting .523 with 2 HRs and 5 2Bs with an OPS of somewhere around 1.500!
  13. Danchat
    There's enough injuries to our AAA players that this shouldn't be a problem.
  14. Danchat
    B-B-But we're only 1.5 GB from the last wild card spot!
  15. Danchat
    6 hits... 1 run.
  16. Danchat
    Nice to see from Larnach, but only 2 HRs so far. Power was supposed to be a strength of his as a prospect, it hasn't manifested a whole lot in the majors.
  17. Danchat
    Yeah, that's accurate and crazy. He had 5 wins in his first 11 games pitched, and now 3 wins in his last 5 games pitched. Seems like he pitches in close games and then their offense always takes the lead right after he comes off the mound.
  18. Danchat
    He was bad last year, can't blame teams for not wanting to roster a 40 year old DH who didn't hit last year.
  19. Danchat
    Geez, only took Ashby 5 pitches to get out of 1st + 3rd no outs!
  20. Danchat
    Kreidler and Outman getting the first hits on Crow was not expected... (Jeffers hit was changed to an error).
  21. Danchat
    I didn't know Culpepper moved to the pen... but no objections here, they need more options in the pen in the near future.
  22. Danchat
    You could cross-train Brooks Lee to play some 1B, he is hitting well enough to justify starting him there and his poor range and arm wouldn't be an issue.
  23. Danchat
    I've been a proponent of keeping Matthews in the rotation as he's shown glimmers of ability to get deep into games, glad to see him backing up my claims. After seeing this Miami squad get shutout 16 total innings between Ober and Matthews, SWR couldn't even had an okay outing against them... not a good sign. Thankfully Simeon's replacement has arrived and looks good to go.
  24. Danchat
    I was just checking his bbref page and I was surprised to see he was quite good in 2022-23.
  25. Danchat
    That'll do, Bell. That'll do. Glad the Marlins didn't pull this bum in time to potentially avoid this.
