    It would be nice if they had someone who was in the top 30 at their position all-time. They're good outfielders but that list is mediocre compared to other franchises. Of course the Twins are a pretty mediocre franchise so that makes sense.

    This has the potential to go off the rails (hello, moderator) but I'll just note that freedom of speech does not mean freedom from consequences of your speech. It only refers to the government penalizing you for your speech. If you say something that publicly embarrasses your employer expect to get fired.

    Are there really people still in the major leagues who can't hit a 95 MPH fastball? I think that's kind of a prerequisite.

    That doesn't happen year-to-year but it does month to month and nobody questions it. Defensive stats are based on fewer chances than offense plate appearances so there will be a higher variation in the results. I have also seen many players play through an injury that affects their defense more than their offense.

    They don't have an impressive list of all-time greats, period.

    Falvey says "Bullpen not a priority" - February 2023
  7. DJL44
    That's a depressing list of "all time great outfielders".

    Check in on him next March and make a decision then if he's available.
  9. DJL44
    You want interim manager Jayce Tingler for the rest of the season? That's the most likely scenario.
  10. DJL44
    On the plus side, only 5 strikeouts against the tee.

    I'm not sure they're far off from that. The AI can't sit in the dugout though so they have to find a paper-pusher like Rocco to actually do what it says. The front office is happy with Rocco. He's doing exactly what they want him to do (which is a good way to keep your job). If they fire Rocco they'll just bring in another Rocco.
  12. DJL44
    I'm pretty sure the analytics guys hand the game plan to Rocco, including the lineup.
  13. DJL44
    Rocco isn't the top. I don't think he writes out the lineup.

    I wanted the Twins to sign Eflin but it sounds like he took a hometown discount to play near home in Orlando.
  15. DJL44
    Or they're trying to make him look better for a deadline trade.
  16. DJL44
    Yeah, because they obviously have a lot of DH playing time to hand out....
  17. DJL44
    The best deadline deals for buyers are usually for mediocre veterans, often underperforming relievers. Prices are too high to acquire top talent in July. Aim low and give up little. The best deal the Twins made last summer was Fulmer for Gipson-Long.

    Miranda has the talent to take the role Solano has.
  19. DJL44
    The Twins traded nothing special for Taylor.
  20. DJL44
    I'm afraid elite defense Buxton only exists in the past now. His knee surgery was obviously not as successful as people hoped.
  21. DJL44
    They traded Garver away at age 30 two seasons ago. Since then he's only appeared in 60 MLB games due to injury.

    Today's game is on Fox. Are we going to post a guide so all the old-timers can figure out how to change the channel?
  23. DJL44
    Return is imminent
  24. DJL44
    Vazquez is part of the reason this pitching staff has performed much better this season. I think they leaned on him a little too heavily when he started out hot. Both catchers will perform better if they share the workload.
  25. DJL44
    Great hit by Polanco off of Sandlin. That guy throws some unusual, effective breaking stuff. Polanco got his pitch and did not miss.
