  1. I don’t like giving the closer role to pre-arbitration pitchers. Saves get paid in arbitration. Give the saves to Hoffman instead.
  2. He has a FIP of 3.54. With the Twins. This is an example of the overall stats regressing to the peripherals. He’s not a closer.
  3. Would people here be thrilled to watch the Twins finish in last place if someone else owned the team? I doubt it.
  4. I was impressed by the size of the crowd to see the last place Angels. I don’t expect the Twins to draw that well against Texas.
  5. How does it make sense to play injured, underperforming players when your team is in playoff contention?
  6. Great decision to bring him back. Imagine if they hadn’t - they might have missed the playoffs and finished the season 10 games under .500.
  7. Pete Incaviglia comes to mind, but Rodriguez looks like a better fielder. Hits like Sano, fields like Kepler.
  8. Tyler Stephenson looks like a decent option. He is unlikely to get more than Vazquez did a couple years ago.
  9. Nobody cares about chasing 10th place in the team saves list.
  10. You would think that Royce was the only batter having trouble yesterday. The Angels starter was nasty. Everyone was struggling until the bullpen entered the game.
  11. If Cody Morrissette had been drafted by the Twins in the second round, we would see posters clamoring for him to get promoted like they do for Sabato. Alas, he was a 2nd round pick by the Marlins so he doesn’t get the prospect hype around here. I think he’s a better baseball player than Sabato.
  12. The front office blew it with Jeffers 2 years ago. They seem to be quite invested in Alex Jackson, paying him $1M to never play just so they can keep him for 2027-28. It would be strange to value him that highly if they didn’t intend to play him next season.
  13. The hope is those are related and once the health issue is treated the stuff bounces back.
  14. They brought up their top 3 prospects (pre draft) - Jenkins, Culpepper and Rodriguez.
  15. Royce Lewis is one of the most relentlessly positive players on the team and is a supportive teammate. I have never heard anyone on the team say anything bad about his attitude.
  16. AA is a good time to make that decision. Get them innings early. If they bomb in AA and they’re on the 40-man roster, move them to the bullpen.
