  1. Correa deal was bad, but not disastrous yet. 4 years 130 mil left though. It's going to just get worse and worse now that the Twins window has slammed shut.
  2. Almost every single pitcher in the league would love to have Moyers career. Throwing under 95 doesn't make you bad.
  3. About the all star break to be exact...
  4. He's been about 6.5 runs below average on the bases as a Twin. Not good!
  5. Have you never worked for a crappy boss? If the guy writing the checks doesn't care you shouldn't either. Even entertaining this ridiculous idea is so dumb. There's no cap in baseball. If the owners wanted to spend money there's nothing stopping them.
  6. The owners don't love the team that much. He shouldn't.
  7. Does it? Same as Kiriloff, I think they're just not very good.
  8. I text my buddy this back on July 8th. This was never not the case. This team was just exceptional and beating the bad teams they were supposed to beat. They were 1-16 against what you would classify as "good" teams at that time. The Twins were always a mirage.
  9. I was hoping they were going to riot and force a forfeit. Imagine being a billionaire, like Fisher and the Pohlads, and caring more about a made up number on a financial statement that doesn't improve your life one bit instead of actually trying to help others. I wish I believed in hell so I could imagine eternal suffering for people like them, but at least their legacy will be one of absolute hatred. As it should be.
  10. Way more people agree with you than they care to admit. No one watched the Rangers vs the Diamondbacks. But at least the Rangers won 90.
  11. Fun Fact: Inter-league record isn't the most telling metric of success, but it is quasi balanced, and I think tells an interesting story. Playoff "contenders": Braves 29-14 Brewers 31-15 Dodgers 30-16 Padres 27-19 Phillies 26-20 ------------ Guardians 24-22 Mets 24-22 Diamondbacks 24-22 Yankees 22-21 Royals 21-21 Astros 22-24 Tigers 22-24 -------------- Orioles 20-26 Twins 18-27 First, the NL is so much better than the AL. And The Twins really aren't good. The got all their wins in the two worst division (54-31) and shat the bed against the far superior ALE and NL (28-45).
  12. Well, that just ain't even close to true. The Nats aren't even the worst team in their own division.
  13. With Pablo's raise, it's now $74m on 3. So that leaves $60 million for 23 players now. Now we look at Willi Castro, Ryan Jeffers, and Chris Paddack raises ($17.5m) and we're down to about $40m for 20 players. So before we're even considering the raises of our bullpen guys, we're looking at a max $18mil to spend in the bullpen if we're trying to stay in the $130-135 mil range.
  14. We all know the twins season is done, but I need them to win to keep pressure on the Royals. They can't go into Atlanta half assed and get swept.
  15. Well...they righted the ship well before the playoffs. It's not at all comparable.
  16. Hey fam, should we pick up Margot's $12 M option?!
  17. As a Mets fan I will be cheering for the Royals. Which team between the Twins and Mets is more deserving? I think we all know the answer.
  18. I just assumed this was true because I've heard so many twins fans say this recently but it's not. They won 14 of their last 22 games.
  19. As is, yeah. But because all of Duran, Jax, Stewart, Topa, and Alcala are due raises, we don't know if this front office will keep them all around. The bullpen, as is, is due $14 million. That's not even mentioning Paddack who is due 7.5 mil.
  20. The expansion of the playoffs has really muddied the waters on what it means to "warrant" a playoff spot. You could make a decent argument that the Minnesota Twins are the 18th best team in baseball.
  21. I want to say again, because we all rightfully criticized Rocco for poor bullpen usage last week, he actually utilized it tonight in a way that showed some level of urgency. No Margot leadoff or PH though. 2/10 /s
  22. That can't be true...can it? Lee is slow though.
  23. Provus with a botched call. The entire organization is struggling.
  24. That's mostly true. But he didn't help himself. He got caught out there by taking off initially.
  25. Weak. Very weak. Like everything else in his skillset.
