What Kind of Return Would You Need to Trade Byron Buxton?
The Wise One replied to Vanimal46's topic in Minnesota Twins Talk
I have recollections that both Berrios and Buxton turned down contract negotiations. The lines used here were similar to "They are betting on themselves". Security would be why you take the contract. Wanting to get what the top players get is why you turn it down. Both would look wise now for not doing so. -

What Kind of Return Would You Need to Trade Byron Buxton?
The Wise One replied to Vanimal46's topic in Minnesota Twins Talk
A 20 million a year contract would be called a team friendly contract if he makes it through the year without more injury time. Considering Donaldson is shy of 22. prime years of Buxton should be worth more, That is if healthy. -

Under the Radar Twins Prospects
The Wise One replied to Tom Froemming's topic in Twins Minor League Talk
With some prospect lists being 50 players long it is hard to be under the radar -
The claim is nobody else rests their players every 3-4 days as a complaint about Baldelli. The Twins used 20 position players for the year. Catchers were alternated more or less. CJ Crohn spennt 25 days on the dl, 125 games played. Schoop played in 125 games. His play log shoes 6 times with multiple days off in a row, Polonco played in 153 games. Sano played in 105 games with 49 days on the dl, Rosario spent 19 games on the dl and played in 137, Buxton played in 87 games and spent 72 days on the dl, Kepler played in 134 games but was done by game 144. Cruz played in 120 games, 29 days dl time. The Chief is right NOBODY rests their players every 3-4 days. In 2019 there were 250 players in total spent on the dl, . He is also wrong in that Baldelli does it

I don't do the on demand service, are the games available by the streaming services now. That would render game time irrelevant as well as podcast of the broadcast.

Does any of the Data Driven Detectives at the Daily have any idea if the ratings are different for day and night

2021 Minnesota Twins Season Schedule Analysis

Roger Kahn perhaps? -
90-110 players a year are playing more than 140 games a year. With thirty teams that means there are not very many good players or you didn't bother to back up your claim with facts.

It's Not Time to Worry About Alex Colomé

What is learned about a player after 1 inning can be defined as nothing that was not known before -
2021 Minnesota Twins Season Schedule Analysis
The Wise One replied to Matthew Lenz's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
You do not know the quality of the opponent until the point of the season you play them. The September schedule. The Rays and Jays can be worse than they were last year, The young talent of any of the AL central could develop over the year making the fall part of the schedule more difficult. -
What Do the Twins See in Jake Cave?
The Wise One replied to Cody Pirkl's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
Cave is a fourth outfielder. That does not block any talent from becoming a major league player except for the player destined to become the next Jake Cave. Jake Cave will continue to be a Twin until either his production drops or the year after he wins an arbitration case. People just need to get used to the idea
