    I saw the zones, yup. The ump did a horrid job - and while I am one not to lean on the whole "they lost the game because of the ump", today is an exception. The Castro and Correa strikeouts alongside those missed calls were brutal.

    Welp, Duran faced the top of the order and flopped. At least that runner got caught stealing so it's not a 2 run deficit, but now we gotta get a run on Clase...

    Farmer and Margot pinch-hit for better hitters and both got on base... Rocco wins this time around.

    I'm shocked we saw Okert and Jackson go back-to-back without giving up runs.

    Fun fact: Caleb Thielbar is the highest paid reliever on the team...

    It has always frustrated me why outfielders are never charged with errors when they are obviously errors.

    It's twice. W12 game vs Chicago is on Monday Night. Yeah, 6 of the first 8 opponents were in the playoffs last year. Not ideal!

    I'd be more on board with workload management if it actually reduced injuries... over the past few years with this roster, it hasn't.

    Steer is a legit MLB hitter, he's hitting .810 OPS in his last 800 PAs. He may not be a great fielder, but he would be starting for the Twins if he were still here.

    I always wondered why the Twins didn't give Ian Hamilton a shot when we stashed him in AAA for about 2 years... and now he's doing quite well for the Yankees. Hmmm.
  11. Danchat
    If only Martin would have spent some time focusing on playing outfield, where it was obvious he would wind up playing in the majors... instead, only 81 games in the minors played in the outfield compared to about 160 in the infield. And it was obvious from the scouting report when we acquired him.

    Kinda funny how a year ago Ober couldn't fit into the rotation for awhile despite the fact we knew he could hang in the majors. His career numbers in the majors are really strong, sub 1.1 WHIP and 3.76 ERA before this game. He is a quality starter through and through. I was surprised they didn't call up a reliever from AAA before the game, whether it be Boushley or Henriquez in case they needed a long man. Jackson can be DFA'd and Sands is regressing back into who we thought he was.

    It would be nice to see him in the bullpen again, if he can pick up where he left off last year. Might be needed with some relievers flaming out.
  14. Danchat
    That should do it! Glad Jeffers was the PH option this time around and Kepler has been killing it since coming back from the injury. Now Duran gets a 3 run lead to work with.
  15. Danchat
    Paddack is having a very Odorizzi-esque start - getting strikeouts and preventing runs, but throwing way too many pitches to do so.
  16. Danchat
    Polanco has been pretty brutal for the Mariners so far... especially hitting in the #3 spot.
  17. Danchat
    Correa!!
  18. Danchat
    It was an uninspiring acquisition when it was announced but I assumed he was the MAT replacement, a guy who would be Buxton's CF backup and provide value with his fielding because it was apparent based on his track record, his bat was going to be disappointing... and now we see he can't manage CF and his defensive metrics are quite bad in the corners. Yuck. Unfortunately, whenever this front office makes a blunder with a player like this they are usually given far too much rope and I don't see them giving up on Margot any time soon.

    They have the 6th lowest ERA as a unit, 7th lowest in WHIP. This is only the 5th time this year a reliever has earned a loss. It is one of the better pens in baseball, but I would not call it the best.
  20. Danchat
    Seems like a win for both teams on paper. It is notable that Salas' stock as a prospect has dropped off after his acqusition and he still isn't doing much better in his second year at Cedar Rapids. He's still young, but his value has fallen quite a bit. Chourio is only 19 and just starting out at Fort Myers, so not much to say there yet.
  21. Danchat
    That was a fast one, only 7 hits between the two teams. SWR with another quality start, the bullpen holds, and the offense does just enough. I don't think Thielbar is washed up just yet. Seems like they're doing some experimenting with the bullpen, can't complain since they have been one of the best units in baseball despite the multiple injuries.
  22. Danchat
    Can't win 'em all! If we only have a clunker game like this once every 13 games, I can live with that. Seems like Jay Jackson is in the long reliever role, but I haven't been impressed with him so far. His actual numbers are better than what it has seemed for him. Interested to see how we fare against the Mariners, of whom is in first place surprisingly. Will the momentum from the winning streak peter out or will the winning continue?
  23. Danchat
    I had Sands making the team as a long reliever a month and a half ago... and now he is closing a close game in the 9th inning. Crazy turnaround for him!
  24. Danchat
    Arraez is a free agent at the end of 2025.
  25. Danchat
    Seemed like he started out slow last year too - he had a 4.00 ERA at this time in 2023, not too far off from his current 4.38.
