    At various times, I've hypothesized that our friend Peter could possibly be Dave St Peter, Chief's burner account, or TC Bear himself. I think we can add Garcia's agent/mom to the list of possibilities
  2. The Great Hambino
    Good points. But I'd add that Jeffers will be younger than the catchers that signed those larger deals - he'll be 29 this offseason whereas Contreras and Realmuto were heading into their age 31 and 35 seasons, respectively. Do good catchers generally not reach free agency in the first place? So much depends on how he looks upon his return, but I'm not sure if it would be unreasonable to offer the QO even if it's above his projected AAV in free agency given it's just a one year commitment 3/45 for Realmuto and 3/30 for Vasquez tells me that the FA catching market can be strange and unpredictable

    A big part of a player's value in free agency is the list of the other available free agents at their position. Here's a list of top potential free agent targets at catcher this offseason Catcher: Carson Kelly (mutual option), Ryan Jeffers, Tyler Stephenson, Travis d'Arnaud, Kyle Higashioka (mutual option), Gary Sánchez (mutual option), Jonah Heim Jeffers looks pretty good among that group to me. He's two years younger than Kelly, and the rest are roughly replacement level

    My biggest takeaway from the game is that Jeff Jarrett still needs money
  5. The Great Hambino
    What the what? It better get changed
  6. The Great Hambino
    Kick save and a beaut
  7. The Great Hambino
    If Zoll can draw relievers out of a hat, why can't Shelton?
  8. The Great Hambino
    Quite the display of offense from both teams tonight First two batters: 2 runs Next 53 batters: 0 runs
  9. The Great Hambino
    Justin Morneau of all people advocating runners making themselves a big target to make 3-6-3 throws more difficult is interesting
  10. The Great Hambino
    Finally some real athletes have taken the field
  11. The Great Hambino
    Twins 6, Astros 3: A Little Rain is No Pain (But a Sprain, Alas! A Sprain...) ... in Spain stays mainly on the plain
  12. The Great Hambino
    Is the ongoing debate about a potential Jeffers trade about to be replaced by an ongoing debate about a Jeffers qualifying offer? Right or wrong, I don't think an extension is within the realm of possibility Also, does the QO deadline occur before or after the CBA expires/lockout begins? This offseason is gonna suck
  13. The Great Hambino
    Gleeman writes an article about Wallner being on the verge of getting sent down, gets sent down later that day Gleeman writes an article about Lewis being on the verge of getting sent down, gets sent down the following day Since leaving The Athletic, Gleeman might have unlocked the lamest superpower ever (Or he's getting tipped off on impending moves. I'd believe it either way)
  14. The Great Hambino
    Garcia and Topa (will [not should] replace Garcia and Rojas) a starter giving up 5 runs in 3 and a third 45th (middle of June)
  15. The Great Hambino
    They were all under four so no baserunning yet! Dad definitely got an extra beer or two in "looking" for the free ice cream
  16. The Great Hambino
    I was at the game but spent most of it trying to shepherd a small battalion of toddlers to the finish line without enduring any meltdowns (mostly a success!), so I wasn't able to pay attention the way I'd normally like, but it sure seemed like there were a lot of loud, warning-track outs that allowed Ober to get by
  17. The Great Hambino
    Twins sure have a propensity to abondon relievers that go on to stumble into an All Star Game You heard it here first: Anthony Banda, 2028 All Star for the Rockies
  18. The Great Hambino
    1. Cool Papa 2. Taco 3. Liberty 4. Saved by the 5. Alexander Graham 6. Southwestern ........ 476,873. Josh

    Pat Murphy looks like he should be playing a cop in a 70s movie
  20. The Great Hambino
    Well that's a play you can hang on the fridge. Nice job Royce
  21. The Great Hambino
    Not sure if "double" or "attempt" deserve bigger air quotes here
  22. The Great Hambino
    Well, a lot of the hitters do need more batting practice. I guess he could help there
  23. The Great Hambino
    Just tuned in. Weird that none of the fielders are wearing hats
  24. The Great Hambino
    Wait, you're telling me a WHIP over 2 isn't sustainable? I do like seeing more Ks than IP though. For better or worse, he's been making it interesting. Something to build on for sure
  25. The Great Hambino
    Max Meyer of the Gophers by way of Woodbury (a double "he's from here" guy!) will be pitching against his hometown team for the first time. That's gotta be a pretty cool feeling. I hope he gets shelled!
