  1. I mean PH Farmer for Wallner, how else do you describe that?
  2. Did Kepler get injured during a social media team stunt? https://www.mlb.com/news/twins-players-pranked-with-fake-spiders?partnerID=mlbapp-iOS_article-share
  3. Vice versa, had the Pohlads not 1) cut spending, and 2) not advertised it, and 3) not screwed around with Bally, what might the average attendance be? they averaged 8th out of 15 in the AL last year after finishing below .500 in 2022. Typically teams see an increase in attendance after making the post season, but this one saw a decrease. the Pohlads suck, but the devil I know, is better than the devil I don’t.
  4. And there appears to be a cause to his blow up as he had pitched 3 of the previous 4 games, and since that night he’s gotten some rest
  5. Or, they could DFA Okert (or Richards) and piggy-back Varland with Mathews and still keep Varland somewhat stretched out, while giving the BP a breather
  6. I mean… when you put it that way… it did implode two nights in a row and catapulted KC to the second WC spot.
  7. I’m glad you asked! Wallner sports a .385 OBP carried by his robust 11.1% walk rate. his OBP ranks 15th league wide all hitters you are correct, he strikes out a ton, but the On Base and Slug are excellent
  8. Wallner’s .959 OPS ranks 10th of all hitters league wide, and he’s on the bench?
  9. Wallner is even between LF and RF this year by OAA (0 is average, -1 is slightly below average), but has an absolute cannon Larnach is slightly better in LF than RF this year, but had a limp noodle arm not very compelling stats though… it could be switched, as you say
  10. Vazquez had a horrendous start to the season, but since June 1, has been the better hitter
  11. Lewis DH Correa SS Wallner RF Buxton CF Miranda 3B Santana 1B Larnach LF Vazquez C Castro 2B I waffled on Wallner LF, Kepler RF. Kep hasn’t hit as well as Larnach and Kep’s fielding has been good but not spectacular, not enough to bump him ahead of Larnach’s hitting. Vazquez has been one of the better hitters on the team over the last month, when I was ready to trade him for a bag of balls in early July.
  12. I watched Sands blown save, it never occurred to me to lookup if he had a save this season, and he has 3! holy crap!
  13. They are currently on track for 39 wins on the season, if they finish with 38, it will be the worst winning percentage in modern baseball history.
  14. Agreed, but Okert, Thielbar, and Sands are the other options. Sands would be my preference, but Rocco hasn’t trusted him in the 9th
