    funny stuff blue prints in the fashion industry are called a “tech pack”

    But the torches and pitchforks…

    His hard hit rate is down, as is his pull rate, while his oppo rate is up. His fly ball rate is up, and he’s swinging at fewer pitches in the zone, while swinging at more pitches out of the zone. Usually when hitters are swing for the fences too much, they try to pull too many pitches and roll over the top. He’s going oppo more and getting more loft. he might benefit from trying to hit homers more

    Agreed, while I think Farmer should be the one to go, and believe there to be a strong chance, I hear Larnach has been DHing almost exclusively because he’s fighting a foot injury, certainly likely/possible he gets the Il stint to recover from it, or one of Larnach/Kirilloff getting demoted

    While I agree with the DFA Farmer contingent (I was in the DFA Margot group, but he has improved lately), why is Santana a lock? being a good defensive first baseman clearly has some value, but he’s a terrible hitter and has been for several years. First baseman need to hit, and Miranda hits decent/well and plays passable first. The whole reason Santana was signed is because the FO didn’t trust Miranda and Kirilloff. Fair enough, Kirilloff hasn’t earned the trust, but Miranda’s OPS would be average at first base (compared to Santana’s bottom of the league) i think there’s an outside chance Santana gets DFA’d at some point.

    1) The Twins have said from the beginning he was going to have a long rehab assignment so they could better manage his return. 2) you clearly have never been to CHS Field in St Paul.

    When bringing up 3 players, one must take 3 players off the roster. Assuming Julien, that’s two
  11. Richie the Rally Goat
    Farmer has the lowest hard hit rate and the highest ground ball rate on the team. That is not a recipe for BABIP progression to the mean
  12. Richie the Rally Goat
    Who goes? DFA Margot is an easy one. Option Kirilloff? DFA Santana? They could DFA Farmer, but then SS gets rather thin if Correa gets injured. Castro is bad there, Lewis and Lee have both been injured and probably can’t jump into the deep end with both feet. that’s where I get a bit nervous DFAing the vets. The young guys have been hurt and inconsistent. Better inconsistent than consistently bad…. But the injuries
  13. Richie the Rally Goat
    As of May 27, at 80 plate appearances Santana’s .643 OPS ranks 28th in MLB First Basemen.

    If no one can change your opinion, and all that matters is your opinion, what was the point of this thread? the whole point of the forums is to discuss and debate.

    Just cuz they’re desperate, doesn’t make them wrong

    They’re not below average. It’s the worst season of his career by a wide margin. .38 BB/K is the killer.

    Welcome to TD
  22. Richie the Rally Goat
    They don’t like Margot in CF, even w/ Buxton out. I think Martin is here until Buck comes back. i think Miranda gets demoted
  23. Richie the Rally Goat
    Welcome to TD! Great post!
  24. Richie the Rally Goat
    A year ago, I couldn’t have imagined a scenario where the Twins extended Kepler. now? I still can’t imagine, but for the exact opposite reason….
  25. Richie the Rally Goat
    Totally agree, but then as a moderator, it helps to gather the poster’s patterns. whats kinda funny about this post is DJLL has been around forever…
