    The Phillies have scored 230 runs, and allowed 229. This fits the narrative to me. TB, not sure… they’ve scored 210 runs, allowed 200. That’s middle of the pack on both. Twins have scored 224 runs, allowed 196 Yankees 237 scored 152 allowed, man that’s tough!

    I was on the swim team in higschool. Today I run, typically 4 miles 3 days per week, long run (7-10 miles) on the weekend. I am training for a half marathon in the fall (my 5th). Some day I might run a full marathon. dang meetings during the Twins game

    To that end, Sanchez has been hot lately and needs to be in the lineup. He should DH or catch most days. Jeffers has been slumping, but his fielding is so good. Thinking of scale of impact of catcher fielding: Jeffers has 286 put outs in 267 innings at catcher, 1.07 put outs per inning. Carlos Correa has 36 put outs in 295 innings at SS. .122 put outs per inning. It doesn’t weight the impact of put outs. There’s no leverage score. However if we think of how important up the middle fielding is by the number of times a fielder touches the ball, the only player that touches the ball more than the catcher, is the pitcher. Sanchez has been ripping the cover off lately, he needs to be in the lineup, probably best to be DH frequently because of Jeffers’ value fielding.

    Though Garv is still a very good hitter, not so much value as a DH
  9. Richie the Rally Goat
    The injuries/health… this team gutted out

    Oh man! That’s rough!

    So there’s 5 catchers listed in Wichita Scouting the stats Alex Isola is having himself a season! .848 OPS with 5 homers in 30 games so far for Wichita as a 23 year old. He’s playing some 1B and DH too, but I suppose w/ 5 Cs ya gotta get innings somehow Pretty much everyone else looks mid 20s journeyman-like at Windsurge and Saints.

    I need to do some research! Maybe that is why Garver and Rortvedt were expendable….
  14. Richie the Rally Goat
    They have 4 catchers on the roster? Unreal! You’d almost have to see 2 of them every game
  15. Richie the Rally Goat
    Cherry pick your stats and they prove your narrative, no? Garlick mashes lefties and Baldelli keeps trotting him out there against lefties

    On the left is a stamped 1991 Twins team ball, on the right Kent Hrbek signed.

    I’m with you on the rotation. Also very interested in some of the unknowns churning through the bullpen, if they can take some higher leverage innings. Also agreed with you and the OP, take care of business against the division first

    Darn Yakuza and their knock off burgers!

    Bourbon is regulated by the ATF in the US, not outside the US. Someone could (and probably does) buy a crapload of Bourbon, blend it off with ethanol and water, and label it as Bourbon again. This type of thing happens all over the world in countries that don’t protect Ip. It’s very rare to hear of ATF raids on material being imported into the US, but it happens (before clearing customs) Scotch, Bourbon or Wagyu, if it’s surprisingly cheap, it’s probably not as advertised

    USDA regulates US Farm agriculture products. There are laws that regulate these types of things in the US, including the tolerances of fat to lean in ground beef (80/20 can be 81/19 or 79/21 for instance) but it does not regulate Wagyu claims. Wagyu is Japanese agriculture.
  21. Richie the Rally Goat
    That was way more realistic sounding than I was expecting
  22. Richie the Rally Goat
    Ugh…

    I looked up paraconsistent logic and the google machine tells me that it is related to “studying and developing ‘inconsistency-tolerant’ logic systems” that must be how I survive being a moderator here at TD. I’m very inconsistency tolerant

    Come to think of it… I had a grilled chicken salad for lunch too! I smell a trend… and possibly chicken shortages in Twins Territory soon
