    I'm not quite there yet but if the offense continues as is for another couple months then it'll be time to see what they can get for him. Maybe the front office can redeem themselves for the franchise altering Mahle/Lopez disaster trades

    I'm very thankful Buxton's extension was signed while injury issues were looming so they weren't forced to give him any real money. Taking a toolsy player and shutting down the use of those tools in favor of turning him into a slightly above average DH just shows how fragile they feel he is physically. Frankly, I've never seen anything like it.

    I kept hearing that the 2nd year of team control was the reason he's here. But it doesn't really matter if he's going to continue throwing meatballs over the plate.

    Lopez really is just not a good pitcher is he? That BABIP regression has been painful to watch.

    Not good. I'm just hoping he's healthy for next year at this point.

    If Mahle were a car we'd be driving him back to the dealership to get our money back.
  13. launchingthrees
    Or alternatively it could be that he signed a semi lucrative extension when many players are working really really hard to improve their weaknesses so they can cash in?

    Give Caleb some rest.

  16. launchingthrees
    Mahle has a career 4.2 FIP.. Giving up all of these assets for someone you' wouldn't be excited about pitching game 1 of a playoff series seems like a pretty big mistake.

    Feels a lot better than a sweep. Win 2 from the Rockies and go from there. The bullpen could use another long start though. A short start could be disastrous.

    The bullpen was getting a ton of volume over the past week. Good to see a bit of a reset tonight.

    Could be very fun to watch Martin, Arraez, AK, and Miranda in a batting order. The OBP would be something to behold. And it could happen as soon as next year.
  27. launchingthrees
    Canterino is almost 24 and has less than 50 innings pitched in the minors. This is a crucial stretch for him.
  28. launchingthrees
    I can't shake the feeling that Jose Miranda is one of the best 50 prospects in baseball. I can't remember a Twins prospect mashing AA/AAA like this at 22/23. 300+ at bats isn't that small of a sample. Wallner could move up quickly. Can't be long until we see him at AA.
  29. launchingthrees
    Small sample still but Jose Miranda learning how to hit would be a welcome addition to the farm system.
