    I believe Canterino is a free agent at the end of this year. He won’t go to fall instructs. My guess is he ends up in an independent league. Teams are not looking for a 29-year old pitcher who has thrown just 86 innings since leaving college.

    The Rays stadium situation was decided last week. The A’s move to Vegas in 2028. The Rays should move into their new home in 2029. Could we see expansion teams as soon as 2030? I think it is inevitable by 2032 at the latest.
  3. DJL44
    They should probably move on from Jenkins and Rodriguez as well if it is that important.
  4. DJL44
    Based on the “wisdom of crowds”, they’re not in the pennant race.
  5. DJL44
    A ball a fielder can’t get to will always be scored a hit, regardless of whether they “should have” made the play.
  6. DJL44
    Teams with a below .500 record tend to draw small crowds in September.
  7. DJL44
    Yay, more outfielders. Can the front office trade some of them for pitchers?

    He hasn’t been a defensive improvement on Kreidler at SS. He sure hits better than Kreidler. I would give Brooks Lee the defender of the month award for his solid play at 3B. He is much better suited for 3B than he is for SS.

    I don’t believe “2nd half Joe” is a real thing. I think “injured Joe” is a thing and he tends to be cryptic about his health status. If Joe really can’t pitch in the 2nd half, then you can put 100% of the blame on Zoll for not putting an obvious ticking time bomb on another roster at the trade deadline.

    Wallner was in AAA in August, hard to blame people who weren’t on the team. Royce had a pretty mediocre August, he can take some blame.

    An injured Joe Ryan was getting lit up. That’s why he went on the injured list. His injury caused him to pitch poorly in three straight games after the All Star game, which they lost. The rotation had an ERA of 4.75 in August. A healthy Joe Ryan would have helped. An injured Joe Ryan lost them games.
  12. DJL44
    Do you think Joe Ryan getting hurt and pitching poorly helped them in August?
  13. DJL44
    3 out of 15 pitches in the strike zone
  14. DJL44
    Too bad other teams aren’t interested in poor defense platoon outfielders
  15. DJL44
    2-4 of those losses in the August collapse is Joe Ryan being injured.
  16. DJL44
    Six games under with 22 games to play. 15-7 is the goal. Win every series.
  17. DJL44
    Kudos to the Tigers for their professionalism. They could have decided to tank the rest of the season like the Twins did last year.
  18. DJL44
    I have heard only bad things about his skills as a catcher. I suppose Diaw could fill the Alex Jackson role.
  19. DJL44
    Where will he play?
  20. DJL44
    https://www.baseballamerica.com/stories/explaining-minor-league-baseballs-historic-home-run-surge-in-2026/ Run scoring is up 15% over last season and HR totals are up 38%. We are seeing near record levels of offense across the minor leagues.
  21. DJL44
    I expect Buxton will play CF when he is available and that is fine. That should give Jenkins 80-100 games in CF if he can stay healthy (or schedule his injuries around Buxton’s). I expect they will need a third OF to cover 30-40 games in CF.
  22. DJL44
    Jenkins has a much better pedigree as a hitter. Results are still small sample size for both. The Twins have a pretty consistent lineup right now. Rearranging it won’t matter much. Check back in later.
  23. DJL44
    Everyone focused on his elbow, but his last surgery was on his shoulder. Shoulder surgeries almost always negatively affect velocity.
  24. DJL44
    He has booted a few balls. That’s really all it takes to have a below average month. The best MLB SS won’t have an error in a month. He has average SS tools but needs to clean things up.
  25. DJL44
    He has not been consistent. -1 OAA for August. I hope that isn’t their best defensive performance. That would be sad.
