  1. Yes. Play the matchup. Ryan has a great fastball that can shut down certain lineups but not others.
  2. Obvious candidates are free agents who won't be on the postseason roster. Keuchel, Floro and Gallo. I would expect them to cut Luplow loose as well.
  3. You all think they're done with injuries this season?
  4. Runs allowed is actually better.
  5. MLB Trade Rumors did their pitcher preview
  6. I don't think he would get a 4 year deal either.
  7. Syndergaard managed to get $13M coming off a bad season. Any random free agent 4th starter gets 1-$10M. Maeda should easily beat that. I see 2 years $30M as his low end and a bidding war would push it up to 3 years $40M. If you attach a draft pick to him with a QO that probably hurts so maybe his bottom end is 2-$28 and top end is 3-$36M. If I'm Maeda I take 1-$20.5 instead of 2-$28 but not instead of 3-$36.
  8. Strongly disagree. He has the same age/success profile as Yu Darvish.
  9. I don't get this. You'd like less information to help you make your decisions? The difference in Cole vs Gray for Fangraphs WAR is Gray has allowed fewer HR than Cole which gives him the advantage in FIP based WAR. Every other calculator has Cole ahead of Gray.
  10. Gray should obviously get an offer which he is very likely to turn down in favor of $100M as a free agent. The question is whether to give Maeda an offer. He's probably worth 2-3 years at $30-40M total. Would he turn down 1-$20.5 to try for 3-$40? There's room in the rotation if he accepts; I don't expect Paddack to give them 180 innings.
  11. Will Gray make another regular season start on 9/27 or will they skip Lopez and Gray to let them rest for the playoffs?
  12. I wish that were true. He's not good but I have heard many who are worse.
  13. This is the biggest no-brainer. The vote for Twins MVP is 1) Gray 2) Lopez.
  14. I'm always impressed when someone takes a team that on paper doesn't have much for pitching and gets very good perrfomances out of the pitching staff. Good job by Dinkelman and his staff.
  15. And I want a pony. Gray is looking for $100M. His agent is going to want to top what Yu Darvish got in 2021.
  16. This is exactly his role on a postseason roster. Pinch hit Buxton and pinch run Stevenson if he walks.
  17. WPA should never be used in a serious discussion. I like RA9 better than ERA.
  18. Regarding pitcher wins I saw this mentioned elsewhere in a discussion of Wainwright reaching 200 wins. "no one in the top 100 wins active is under 27 years of age. Yikes. And it just takes 43 wins to make that list." Forget winning 300 games, the 200 win club among pitchers 33 and under might be just Gerrit Cole. Sonny Gray is 2nd in wins among pitchers 33 and under with 98 wins - good for 21st among active pitchers. Aaron Nola is #1 among pitchers 30 and under with 90 wins and Berrios is #2 with 83 wins.
  19. Apparently the trainer was working without a license https://www.startribune.com/twins-timberwolves-trainers-fined-unlicensed/600305763/#:~:text=The Minnesota Board of Medical,a state license until April.
  20. Alex Kirilloff is struggling. .581 OPS in September. They need him to get going again.
  21. My optimistic take. The Saints season is over in a week. They have to add Austin Martin to the 40 man roster this offseason. This clears a spot on the 40 man roster if they want to promote Martin.
  22. That's some bad 3B defense
