    Runs the catcher costs a team on defense from stolen bases is actually one of the easiest, most objective and most accurate things to measure of all the defensive statistics.
  2. DJL44
    Which has cost the team two runs below an average catcher over the course of an entire season. It’s mostly irrelevant.

    There is no way in hell the owners would create a system that has them spending more money than they are spending right now. They aren’t threatening a lockout to open up their wallets and throw cash around. That is a very, very naive take.

    I hate hard cap and floor because every transaction is about how it affects the cap and not how it affects the level of talent on the team. Dead weight contracts become valuable because they can be bought out. I also think the Twins front office would be totally screwed if they had to learn how to run a franchise with a minimum spend. They’re bad enough decision makers now. If the decisions become more complicated they will be even worse. They will blow the whole budget on old folks and watch their blocked young talent succeed elsewhere.

    Ben Ross? Why not Tristan Gray or Matt Wallner if you just want someone to play cards in the clubhouse.
  6. DJL44
    Jeffers allows less than one stolen base per game.
  7. DJL44
    Brandon Lowe has produced more offense than Bell this season and he has a good glove at 2B. Gleyber Torres can still hit, he just missed time with an injury.
  8. DJL44
    Better than giving those innings to Taylor Rogers
  9. DJL44
    History has also told us that Jenkins and Rodriguez are also likely to miss large parts of the season. Between the three players they will be lucky to cover two spots. Martin and Roden will get plenty of playing time. They have some depth in the outfield to cover for injuries. They have diddly squat in the infield. Adding a starting caliber middle infielder is critical. That frees up Kody to cover several positions as injury depth. Marek Houston should not be part of 2027 plans as a primary or secondary option.

    Remember the article about Paulshawn Pasqualotto and him possibly helping the major league team this year? I wouldn’t worry about that. Woof.

    Emmanuel Rodriguez was introduced as “Manny” at the Saints game today. Might be time to stop calling him Emma.
  12. DJL44
    Kala’i Rosario looked good today. They might need to protect him from the Rule 5 draft this December.
  13. DJL44
    Interesting that the PA was announcing Emmanuel Rodriguez as “Manny” today.
  14. DJL44
    Bell has put up minus 1 win above average. He is one of the reasons their record is below .500.
  15. DJL44
    If Gabriel Gonzalez can learn LF and 1B, so can Luke.
  16. DJL44
    He has sat since he got tossed arguing with the umpire.
  17. DJL44
    Looks like Gabriel Gonzalez will get Caratini’s first base playing time.
  18. DJL44
    They should probably take a first look at Rodriguez before they cut him from the roster. Any word on Austin Martin’s return?
  19. DJL44
    And two extra weeks of Jenkins might have moved the needle all the way up to… 7 games out of the playoffs.
  20. DJL44
    Shohei Ohtani couldn’t win in LA… until he went to the Dodgers. You can be the best individual baseball player of a generation but it doesn’t matter if you don’t have a team around you. This isn’t the NBA where one star player can carry a team to a championship.
  21. DJL44
    Disagree. Need to keep pitching him so he works through his struggles and improves as a pitcher.
  22. DJL44
    I think Keaschall should be learning 1B. If Gabe Gonzalez can learn LF and 1B, so can Luke. Royce is not known for his durability.
  23. DJL44
    Headed to the Saints game today. Hopefully they break the HR record.
  24. DJL44
    The frozen apple cider in the horticulture building is a favorite of mine.
  25. DJL44
    Well, call up the prospect at least. Buxton doesn’t have any reason to risk further injury. Have him take care of his hip and add Emmanuel Rodriguez to the roster. I don’t see any other prospects worth calling up.
