  1. On the bright side, they're no longer performing below their run differential. Progress!
  2. Has SWR ever had back-to-back single digit pitch innings? Did he have two in his entire career before today?
  3. Puts him at 60. He is destined to go 20 pitches per inning one way or another
  4. Honest question: how many innings do you have to pitch to get two-way player status?
  5. See, they're down such an absurd amount that I think it becomes appropriate again, gallows humor. Sorta like if you go east far enough you become west
  6. Getting fans to call for Bride when Duran is sent to the mound is a modern art masterpiece
  7. Making him wear it on the way out of town, as is tradition
  8. I think it's Polish for misery This guy's gonna be a problem, assuming his UCL doesn't explode
  9. I'm willing to give him a pass on the comebacker, looked like the bat messed with his transfer. But, yeah
  10. This looks like an intrasquad scrimmage with these unis
  11. Does the ballot have you vote for outfielders LF/CF/RF separately, or does it have you vote for any three outfielders?
  12. My first thought on Castro was no, but after looking at the 2B field in the AL ... woof. He has about as good a case as anyone. For fun, here's the Twins on the ballot with their current positional AL rank on the ballot in OPS 1B: France - 11th 2B: Castro - 1st(!) 3B: Royce - 14th SS: Correa - 11th C: Jeffers - 4th OF: Buck - 2nd (now within 300 points of Judge!), Bader - 17th, Wallner - 22nd DH: Larnach - 7th Besides Willi, I was surprised by how high Jeffers and Royce ranked at their positions
  13. Nice Lonnie Smith impression by Castro on the bases ... lucky the throw was high
  14. I'm not ready to address the emotional trauma Elly has wrought upon me these past 18 hours
  15. Are we sure this isn't just a replay of yesterday's game? Buck leadoff homer, give up two in the bottom half, defeated looking Twins pitcher with long hair, Reds pitcher named Nick
  16. Unfortunately I don't think it even matters at this point. What team out there would have the desire to assume his contract straight up, let alone give up value for him? His contract alone eliminates all but like 6-8 teams from consideration. And he isn't performing anywhere close to the level that would help the remaining teams in any meaningful way. Short of a rich contender ending up with a long-term emergency (as in, the cupboard looks bare for multiple years) at shortstop (or maybe 3B if they're really desperate), I just don't see any sort of trade market for him unless he figures out how to hit again for a sustained amount of time. The other option would be for the Twins to eat an enormous chunk of his remaining contract, which kinda defeats the purpose of the trade. I don't think he's going anywhere any time soon
  17. Fitting that he finds his efficiency with rain approaching to make sure this becomes an official game
  18. I just flipped on the Saints, and the first thing I see is old frenemy Manny Margot moonlighting as a Mud Hen! I think I should just stop watching baseball for the night
  19. Hey, it might get Brewer fans excited for the series. They buy tickets too, and Joe P's haircuts don't pay for themselves!
  20. If they're gonna get lit up tonight, at least let Elly go off so at least my fantasy team can benefit
  21. REALLY!?!?! I DIDN'T KNOW THAT!!!!! Two different teams that aren't the Twins have benefited from elements of a less than three year old trade. Like I said, I could've worded it better
  22. I don't think the Reds were too disappointed with his 2023 season
