    You seem certain he can field grounders. Most players who struggle fielding flyballs have an even harder time with infield grounders.
  2. DJL44
    I think they prefer Bride to McCusker in the short term.
  3. DJL44
    Can he at least get luke-warm and start hitting like the game's mediocre first basemen?
  4. DJL44
    They probably don't have any infielders who would immediately be better than Clemens left in the minors. If you bring up an actual prospect before it is necessary then you clog up your offseason 40 man roster or risk losing the player to another organization in the future. They need a stopgap for a few days.

    No players, just cash.

    Since this comment, Lee is 7 for 15. His average is now .278.
  7. DJL44
    Yes
  8. DJL44
    I appreciate why they went and got Clemens, but they need a bat. I think I would have gone with McCusker.
  9. DJL44
    Plus DaShawn Keirsey. One of them is going to be in the lineup every day because the DH spot is open. Clemens and Bride make a weird platoon where both players have better career stats against same-handed pitching.
  10. DJL44
    There's only a couple healthy position players on the 40 man roster: Jair Camargo and Emmanuel Rodriguez (Edit: he's day-to-day with a hand injury). No wonder they just traded for Kody Clemens.

    Carlos Correa finally hit the ball HARD tonight. He looked like himself again. Buxton looks like he wants to head home to Atlanta for the All-Star Game.
  12. DJL44
    Do you want the Dodgers and Yankees to be able to hoard the 30 best players they can pay instead of just hoarding the best 26 players they can pay? That's over 100 extra players who aren't available to the team at the bottom of the standings. Do you want 15 (or more) pitchers on the roster so your starters go 3-4 innings routinely? Roster limits help the worst teams get better because the top teams can't hoard all of the talent.
  13. DJL44
    I don't think they need to dump Paddack for nothing, but they need to trade him before he injures himself again. Don't wait until the deadline.
  14. DJL44
    Most of the good teams are pretty close to the budget number they want for this year. Adding $37M to the budget is not going to happen. They're going to require the Twins to take a contract in return. Most of the good teams also already have a SS better than Correa.
  15. DJL44
    Yes. The pension alone is worth it. Every minor leaguer should be striving to get 43 days on an MLB roster to get the minimum pension.
  16. DJL44
    Any problems you have outlined can be solved by raising the minimum salary. You don't need to get cute with waiver claim bonuses or extra housing. Just raise wages. The MLB minimum should be closer to $1M.
  17. DJL44
    They need to move Paddack to another team's roster.
  18. DJL44
    After that start, Festa has the highest WAR of any pitcher on the roster. 3 runs allowed in 13 innings.
  19. DJL44
    This site takes 5-10 minutes to update in my experience.
  20. DJL44
    He's on the IL now. Gasper up.
  21. DJL44
    Like most players signed as pure free agents, Correa has a net negative future value. They could trade him for another team's overpriced free agent but a deal for top young prospects is a pipe dream.
  22. DJL44
    This is true. Correa can't drive the ball at the moment. So much weak contact.
  23. DJL44
    There is always an article asking "What will the team do when everyone is healthy?" but I don't remember a time when that has happened.
  24. DJL44
    Keaschall has been getting great jumps. He's fast enough but that's not all of it.
  25. DJL44
    This is how the Twins train their pitchers in the minor leagues. Throw 75 pitches and you're done for the night. It's inevitable that this is the result in the majors.
