    Technically speaking, while following the surname, it is not PART of the surname. Why you never see a Griffey Jr jersey.

    Just wanna say...idk how everyone constantly misspell so many names here. Not pointing you out but you were the fourth straight person to spell it wrong. Keirsey. He's a Twin! There are only 26 players! He's been on the team for over 50 games this season! Aaggghhhhh!
  3. NYCTK
    If you normalize for the season, his postseason ops wasn't all that different than his regular season ops. He was a good hitter, both in the regular season and postseason. He was "clutch" in some notable Yankees series but for some reason forgot his clutch gene at home in some other series.

    Kody Clemens would be a really cool all star selection. I hate him as a player and have for 3 seasons now based on his previous stints and haven't been able to change my tune just yet. But I love those kinds of stories. Not a mediocre 1B that's already made an all star game.

    He should try letting the game come to him in some less pivotal at bats too. Then he might be a decent player. Or, maybe he's just a fine player and we needn't constantly praise the "approach" that results in a big hit. Sometimes it's just a mediocre player running into a ball and we can celebrate that in itself.

    Sure, they paid one year of a good reliever for two years for a basically equal caliber reliever and Rooker. But they paid a bad Brent Rooked that was DFAd twice after the trade. This idea that trading away Rooker was some huge foley is just revisionist history.

    Letting games end in ties would be WAY less popular than the extras runner.
  8. NYCTK
    I don't get the hate! I don't like it in playoff baseball. But like the pitch clock, I think speeding up the game has been hugely positive. It doesn't provide any real advantage, just forces more urgency in extras. I'm a fan!

    Soto at his worst is a significantly better hitter than Lewis at his best. You can't compare the slumping player with a 750 OPS to the guy with a 450 OPS. If Lewis is ever as good a hitter as Soto he has permission to ease up on groundballs.

    Twins do have quite the set of home uniforms. 3 very distinct and all quite nice. Not the best City Connects but so much better now that they're using white pants. Those roads though. Woof.

    Larnach is slow, and the Royals are in a league of their own in preventing the stolen base. Why he even took off is puzzling. Real close, looked safe but dumb to even try there.
  12. NYCTK
    When you have a shallow team with some plodding, terrible defensive OF, it's not the worst to have a late inning pinch running defensive option. But gees his use today was just pretty ridiculous. But yeah. #FireDaShawn
  13. NYCTK
    Now PR Keirsey. Wait. Damn.
  14. NYCTK
    Good ph decision. But makes you wonder why they put in Keirsey in the first place.
  15. NYCTK
    Well, just demoted, but let's hope we never have to see him again.
  16. NYCTK
    We'll see how his recovery is, but with Ohtani returning to pitching today I think he's just such a unicorn to choose anyone over him.
  17. NYCTK
    Gotta be McCusker and baseball will work it out and he'll get another chance within a month. Eventually Clemens will get off his heater and a tougher decision will have to be made.
  18. NYCTK
    Calling him one of the worst players this century is fact, not prejudice. Sorry DaShawn Keirsey Sr.
  19. NYCTK
    Your adoration of one of the worst minnesota twins in this century is just baffling man. He can get those ABs in AAA or Korea, for all I care.
  20. NYCTK
    Could be argued! One completely useless with the bat. One fairly useless in the field. I just can't get over the Twins thinking he was still the same defensive player that did excel for a few seasons in Tampa. Just god awful baseball decision. I don't even really blame Margot for his pinch hitting ineptitude. Why Rocco kept trying over and over was just baffling, and part of the reason that I do think he should have been fired as soon as the season was over.
  21. NYCTK
    You somehow believe that Keirsey would be a significantly better player if he just got 100 more PAs last season in the majors. Yeah, sure, he should have played over Margot last season. But that doesn't mean he'd be any better this season. This is ridiculous thinking. And, thanks to the helpful search function on this website, I can tell you that the second comment you made mentioning Bader was: So...
  22. NYCTK
    This article really does a disservice by not mentioning WHY Baez is playing. He's playing CF because they lost two 2+ WAR outfielders that are returning very soon. So if Baez takes a step back they expect Meadows and Vierling to fill in that gap.
  23. NYCTK
    The thing about such diligent minor league reports is fans develop too lofty of expectations on the minor league players that are performing well. Carson McCusker would still be highlighted, while a player like Billy Amick wouldn't get a write up proposing he's a likely call up or the future at 1B based on a 500 BABIP in high A. I'd rather learn about a player like Manzardo before or around his call-up instead of a player that likely doesn't even get to 50 PAs in the bigs.
  24. NYCTK
    Miranda would obviously be a 300 average 25 HR gold glove first basemen if Rocco just BELIEVED in him more.
  25. NYCTK
    What, you don't think his 420 BABIP is sustainable?
