ChiSox (Ellard) v Twins (Ober): 9/1, 1:10pm CT

The pitcher will bounce it off the umps chest protector and the run up and grab the ball, that way they can have an extra position player -
Welcome to Twins fandom, where the Hot Stove season has lasted from the All Star Break to April Fools Day since 1995.

The series is currently split

Moneyball was about getting on base as an undervalued statistic, 20+ years ago. Sabre is an ever evolving statistical and historical society of baseball fans and professionals that has a wide approach to evaluating the game.

Directionally agreed, return matters a lot. In terms of value, the when matters less. This team as constructed, with this ownership is going to suck horribly for an undetermined amount of time, with or without Ryan and Lopez, and probably well past Ryan and Lopez’ tenure with the Twins. the CBA looks to be lockout bound Dec 1, 2026. I’m guessing we’ll lose games in 2027. MLR influenced me on the timeline id look for several high end prospects in high A, double A. Players who could be knocking on MLB door end of 2026, into 2027, so you could make a case for relevancy in 2028. id also look more for hitting prospects than pitching. This team has shown some capability of developing pitchers in the high levels of the minors and young major leaguers, not so much hitters.

To fans? Players? The Pohlads? to fans and players? I imagine so to the Pohlads? Probably not, unless it’s an indication of next year’s season ticket sales.

Currently on the Twins by OPS limited to 10 including Arraez Keaschall .911 SSS Buxton .874 Wallner .812 Martin .756 SSS Jeffers .742 Larnach .734 Clemens .718 Arraez .704 Lee .678 Lewis .664 Ty France has a .328 OBP and .368 SLG, is a better fielder than Arraez. Arraez has .317 OBP .387 SLG. The Twins had to pay a major league reliever to offload the remainder of France’s $1m salary at the deadline. If they spend money on FA, they need to aim higher.

Bradley looks like he has no idea where the ball will end up

The Pale Hose were not eligible for the lottery last year because they had paid in to the revenue sharing and tanked the year prior. As this is 3 years in a row, why would they become eligible again?
-
Have you checked lately? His OBP this year is .316…. And somehow his slugging got worse too, .388. That’s a .704 OPS for someone who provides negative fielding and running value. Ty France is a much better fielder, with similar on base and slugging, and the Twins had to package him with Varland to offload his $1million contract.
-
It’s a draft lottery now like NBA and there’s anti-tanking rules, that the Pale Hose and Rockies have both tanked multiple years, pick 1 is still in the cards

Concur! @Matt Braun is one of my favorite writers here because of those nuggets, and just the right amount of snark. let the trudge to the finish line continue!

Possibly so, but that one was in rank order comparing them against each other.

He’s been the 6th best hitting outfielder league wide since 2023 at 750 plate appearances.
