    Change is the only constant… embrace it or spend a lot of time and energy being frustrated.

    Anyone else put off by the over the top behavior of the USA team while beating up on a clearly inferior team? That was one day after being humiliated by a Mexico team that they should have been able to handle!

    Looks like Jose de Leon found his groove!

    Sunk Cost Fallacy 😐

    I am liking the pitch clock in the spring training games I've watched. Watching the WBC games with the old pace makes them seem to plod on forever... and I could live without ever having to watch another hitter adjust his batting gloves again!

    Somewhat petty, but ultimately satisfying.... JK!

    I am somewhat confused by all the talk of slotting our young players with promising hit skills into the DH role. If you're going to employ a dedicated DH, it should be a spot for experienced ML hitters whose defensive side is in decline. There is something wrong with our farm system if it continues to develop so many young players who can hit but have no defensive skill.

    Thanks for the info!

    I'm in MN and have the MLB.tv package which incudes Spring Training games. Today's game was not blacked out... BUT it was the Phillies broadcast, not BSN. Don't know if that makes a difference.

    Seems like a very logical adaptation. In a perfect world the 2nd surgery would make AK whole and he could pick up where he left off with his batting style. But this not being a perfect world, it seems prudent to find ways to put less stress on his wrist.

    I get the impression the blackouts are a Sinclair/Diamonds thing. Could be wrong... wouldn't be the first time 😄

    For better or worse, it looks like we will be consuming baseball (and other regional sports) in a very different way soon!

    Nice quote from Solano that several teams were interested and he chose the Twins on reputation. Hopefully that reputation continues to grow with higher level FAs as well!

    Great to see these guys “hungry” to develop! Bodes very well for the quality of the starting rotation!

    Most likely this was not the first time he has put himself in harms way. His luck just ran out. The subtext in the comments from Baldelli and the FO seems heavy on frustration.

    I'm hoping he becomes a legendary baseball story of a pitcher turning a devastating injury into a devastating pitch no one has seen before!

    When talking about a negative outlier, the phrasing should be reversion to the mean.
  18. NotAboutWinning
    Is anyone talking about how the rule changes will affect the early season? I think younger teams would have the advantage initially since more of their players are familiar with the pitch clock. If you watched Varland or SWR work last year, their faster pace was apparent and very much part of their pitching style. The effect will diminish over time but I think it will a factor in April.

    Perhaps this will allow him to have a long, productive career in professional baseball! The current philosophy of encouraging young pitchers to be flamethrowers is craziness and creating an endless line of pitchers sidelined by shoulder and elbow issues.

    There is a difference between being consumers of a product and shareholders of a company. Shareholders are exposed operational information.. We are consumers. Consumers receive product information via press releases and advertising. While we may be extremely emotionally invested, we are not actual investors... Putting on fireproof hat now.

    Yikes!!!
  22. NotAboutWinning
    Hmmm... someone should mention that to the Mets.
  23. NotAboutWinning
    And putting their own careers in jeopardy!
  24. NotAboutWinning
    There doesn't seem to have been a lot of mention of the affect Covid has had on players. They may be back playing after a couple of weeks, but many seem to take months to return to form. I think it had something to do with CC4's slow first half last year as well.

    Very interesting point!
