    Nope

    Good for him. Hopefully he can get some hits and give the Twins something to think about over the offseason.

    I'll meet you in the middle and say we call up both Rodriguez and Jenkins

    I love the Twins. I love Target Field. I love going to games. Simply put, the atmosphere for regular season games is not good. A lot of fans can't even be bothered to stand up and clap for the starting lineup. A large portion of fans aren't paying attention to the game whatsoever. You can go to other stadiums and this is not the case. It's not an excuse of the team not being good either. Before the last couple seasons when we were actually competing for/winning the division Target Field has had plenty of empty seats. Yes, baseball fans at other stadiums aren't all paying attention to every single pitch. There's still an energy around the game that you can feel being in the crowd. It bums me out a bit because Target Field is such a nice field. It has a lot going for it that other places don't. The atmosphere just isn't there.

    I'm not convinced this is better than keeping Jeffers and attempting to make the playoffs. "For a front office looking to compete now while building for the future, this is exactly the type of creative buy-low opportunity worth exploring." Why would the Twins be trading one of the best players in a premium position this year for a buy-low opportunity? How does this help the Twins for the future?

    Everything I've read has said Joe Ryan has no interest in an extension. If that's true, the only logic to keeping him beyond this trade deadline is if you think the Twins have a shot at the World Series before his contract is up. Does anyone here think that is a possibility? I would hate to see him go as he's a great player and I enjoy watching him pitch. Obviously depends on the return and all those caveats. For organizations like the Twins trading players in this scenario is exactly how we have to operate. Hopefully get multiple good prospects in return with one or two ready/close to MLB ready. Then it's time for the younger guys to fill in the rotation.

    The harder a ball is hit, the more likely it is to be a hit, and the more likely that hit goes for more bases.

    What is the most homeruns hit in the minor league system in one day?

    Yasser Mercedes has been playing ok to good since the end of May. Unfortunately his 37 games in April/May were very bad weighing down his overall season numbers. I'm very intrigued with what he can do next season

    Trading Louie doesn't make any sense. Almost feels personal
  11. Tibs
    Apparently I have a different definition of "can't refuse" than SI does
  12. Tibs
    Sabato late bloomer?
  13. Tibs
    Going to have to add in Brian Duensing to get it done
  14. Tibs
    Nice job, Steve
  15. Tibs
    It does not. Just says "A considerable portion of the team's debt has been added since the start of the 2020 season."
  16. Tibs
    Yikes
  17. Tibs
    Cubs need to throw in Brian Duensing before I'm even answering the phone

    "That doesn't mean Jax will be good until he's 40, but for the three seasons of team control he has left, there's good reason to hope he could be the next Garrett Crochet, Reynaldo López, or Seth Lugo." So you're suggesting Griffin Jax could be the next Crochet etc, and you're suggesting we trade him while he's 30, cheap, and under team control for 3 more years for an OF prospect who maybe can't hit and we don't need?
  19. Tibs
    This doesn't work in professional sports, especially baseball. Just get in and try to play your A game

    This may make some commenters here happy

    No thanks

    I mean, weird response. Sure, the Twins can't just completely ignore an entire position group for a draft. Let's not pretend the organization has a remotely good track record with drafting HS pitchers the last ~10 years. HS pitchers drafted by the Twins and signed since 2013: Chase Petty Marco Raya Regi Grace Landon Leach Blayne Enlow Jordan Balazovic Tyler Benninghoff Matt Jones Jovani Moran Kohl Stewart Stephen Gonsalves Seth Wagner I apologize if I missed any. Not exactly a list of who's who
  25. Tibs
    I'm a bit wary of drafting a high school pitcher this early but the current stuff and potential would be exciting.
