  1. I'll commit seppuku in the middle of target field if buxton ever plays for anyone other than the Twins
  2. It'll make for a more interesting draft day, but I don't see a world where the Sox don't grab Roch.
  3. I think Shelton is doing a fine job overall, but I don't think we really know anything about how he is "reshaping" this team. It's still incredibly early in his tenure and it's hard to draw much from a sample size this small. They are on pace to win 74 games, which is right where Vegas had them in the preseason. There are a ton of very talented teams underperforming now. The Twins are an undermanned team that is playing to their projections. Which is really all you can ask of a first-year manager. And to be clear, if the wheels fall off, that wouldn't be Shelton's fault either. I definitely agree you don't have to squint hard to see not just a competitive team, but a really good one potentially. It will take some players actually developing and a little more injury luck. But I think next year is the true start to a potential contention window in terms of the division.
  4. Buxton has also turned a corner in both of those situations in the last two years. In '24 and '25, he slashed .288/.363/.524 with a 137 wRC+ with RISP In 24 in high leverage opportunities, he slashed .358/.429/.552 In 25, he slashed .236/.352/.500
