    I wouldn't be surprised if Canterino passed through waivers without getting claimed. Roster spots are hard to come by at the moment.
  2. DJL44
    Because he turns 25 this year. He's one of the youngest players on the 40 man roster.

    Umpires call 97% of pitches correctly. Believe it or Not, Umpires Are More Accurate Than Ever | Pitcher List Strike Three?! Let’s Check in on Umpire Accuracy | FanGraphs Baseball

    More comps - Michael Conforto, Cory Snyder, Colby Rasmus, Max Kepler

    How many AAA teams do they need to fill roster spots for?
  6. DJL44
    The Twins signed Armando Alvarez to a minor league deal. Guess that means it's time to trade Royce Lewis!
  7. DJL44
    No sooner than the July trade deadline and possibly not at all
  8. DJL44
    If everyone is healthy, two of those things will happen even with Paddack in the rotation.
  9. DJL44
    The Twins aren't big fans of $7.5M relief pitchers. Paddack in the bullpen means some combination of a) losing Ronny Henriquez on waivers (out of options) b) optioning Topa and/or Alcala to the minors c) no lefty in the bullpen d) returning Eiberson Castellano to the Phillies

    Why do we want to keep a mediocre pitcher to block the pathway for our rookie class? The rookie pitchers in AAA (Festa, Matthews, Morris, Raya) have a lot more potential than the rookie OF/1B types (Helman, Keirsey, Gasper, Martin). I'd much rather start the season with Festa in the rotation and Andujar in the OF than I would with Paddack in the rotation and Austin Martin in the OF.
  11. DJL44
    Oakland is looking to add another starting pitcher and they need to add payroll to avoid a grievance filed by the MLBPA. Miguel Andujar is a mediocre corner outfielder with a $3M pricetag. He hits lefties well and can also play 1B. Paddack for Andujar could work.
  12. DJL44
    If Eeles can play defense at 2B he will force his way up.

    The games are about an hour longer than they were when Bench was catching, or at least they were before the pitch clock was implemented. That's an extra half hour in a squat every night. The playoffs are also 2 weeks longer and teams want to have their best catcher productive for that whole month. Finally, I think the worst players have gotten better so the gap between your beat-up starter and a fresh backup is smaller than it was in the 1970s.
  14. DJL44
    I think her place burned to the ground.
  15. DJL44
    He has one option left. He was added young enough that he might get a 4th option season.
  16. DJL44
    That's his real photo. Go ahead and search on google images.
  17. DJL44
    Correa's production is quite valuable to the Twins but he doesn't have a lot of excess value once you subtract the value of what he gets paid. That's why other players end up higher than Correa. I'm pretty certain you couldn't get a team to give you a top 100 prospect in return for Correa in a trade.
  18. DJL44
    They have more relievers than they can fit on the roster already. Why would they trade their starting catcher for an expensive relief pitcher? If they want an expensive reliever they can just sign one as a free agent.
  19. DJL44
    Buxton belongs on the list instead of Julien. I would have Andrew Morris on instead of Raya. Festa should be just below Jax and Duran. Move Jeffers and Correa ahead of Zebby Matthews. The rest are close enough that I don't care. Walker Jenkins, CF Royce Lewis, 3B/2B Bailey Ober, RHP Joe Ryan, RHP Pablo López, RHP Brooks Lee, SS/2B/3B Emmanuel Rodriguez, CF Matt Wallner, RF Griffin Jax, RHP Jhoan Durán, RHP David Festa, RHP Ryan Jeffers, C Carlos Correa, SS Byron Buxton, CF Simeon Woods Richardson, RHP Zebby Matthews, RHP Luke Keaschall, 2B/CF Trevor Larnach, LF José Miranda, 3B/1B Andrew Morris, RHP

    Is that the most embarrassing professional photo you've ever seen? It looks like it was taken when he had to be at the gym at 5:30am.
  21. DJL44
    Please let this turn into a feud
  22. DJL44
    Berrios would have walked as a free agent and freed up that money all by himself.
  23. DJL44
    Slap hitters need to be able to play defense to get a job.
  24. DJL44
    Not for a team out of contention. A quality player on a losing team has little value.
  25. DJL44
    Disagree strongly. They have zero younger, cheaper players who are likely to produce the same as can be expected from Willi Castro.
