  1. He pitched 5 shutout innings against the Blue Jays to get the Twins their first playoff series win since 2003.
  2. So your position is the front office is incompetent and should be fired because they lose all their trades.
  3. Then they should dump Chris Paddack.
  4. A prospects-for-prospects trade for catching would be a good idea even if they keep Vazquez for his last season.
  5. We have a name on that pick now: Kyle DeBarge. We'll see how that pans out, although they did pick him underslot and give some of the money to Hill.
  6. I think the locals are all at the State Fair. Tonight they'll all be watching Caitlin Clark at the arena next door.
  7. They are spending about $60M more than Oakland, so they're doing more than the bare minimum, but Oakland isn't trying to win right now.
  8. Pallante did a great job keeping the ball off the barrel of the bat. He owned Trevor Larnach.
  9. I blame Royce Lewis. He should have flatly said no. I normally dislike athlete interviews because they are vapid and uninteresting. When they happen during a baseball game I get irritated. It would be great if they could shut up for a while so I could watch the game.
  10. Based on what I saw last night it's because Festa can't hit his spots when he's tired. As the game goes on he starts leaving fastballs middle-middle.
  11. This team has all sorts of financial flexibility. It would be defendable if they had spent the money on someone else instead of just putting it in their pocket. Sonny Gray has a FIP of 3.21 and 135 innings pitched. He is having a season right in line with his last 5 seasons. The Cardinals got a bargain, especially when you consider how backloaded that contract is.
  12. In 2024, Major League Baseball, the North American professional baseball league, reported overall revenue of 11.34 billion U.S. dollars, corresponding to an average revenue of roughly 378 million U.S. dollars per team. - Statista
  13. Surprised no mention of the Chevy trucks on Machinery Hill.
  14. I hope he finds a spot somewhere. He deserves a shot to see what he can do. Worse players than him have made it to the big leagues. I remember Casey Blake never got a real shot until he was 29 and he put together a nice career.
  15. They need to aggressively shop Vazquez and Paddack this offseason. Some team should be willing to take on one season of each contract. Willi Castro is a much better value at his salary than Christian Vazquez or Chris Paddack.
  16. I think the history stays with the fans. I know there are still Philadelphia fans who celebrate the Athletics. Jackie Robinson is a Brooklyn Dodger. Walter Johnson is a Washington Senator.
  17. Exactly, that's the only option for him to get more at-bats this season. He's been out 2 months.
  18. Be careful drawing conclusions about A-ball in August. The best players have been promoted and the new players are seeing their first action as professionals. The batters are transitioning to wood bats and many of the pitchers are having mechanics altered by the professional coaches.
  19. Bats L, Throws R. Not a strong arm so 2B/LF. His listed height is shorter than David Eckstein.
  20. Compare to Wallner at 27.4 ft/s sprint and 98th percentile in arm strength.
