  1. Peter was the one who said he thought it would happen. He should be giving me even odds. I split the difference.
  2. They could make it to the World Series. All they need to do is go 9-6.
  3. It's more likely the Twins play Toronto than Texas in the first round. The Jays close the season against the Yankees and Rays. If the Jays get the #2 wild card they will be playing back-to-back series against Tampa.
  4. If Texas goes 2-5 they will get the 2 seed. I will give you 10-1 odds that the Twins are not the #2 seed.
  5. Keuchel will probably pitch in the Colorado series, then a bullpen game to end the season.
  6. No, they're both below average players who won't help a team win in the playoffs.
  7. They did win - on Friday night. The rest of these games are basically exhibition games now. Give everyone enough playing time to be fresh for the playoffs. No sense burning the whole team out chasing the 1% chance at the #2 seed only to fall short and be exhausted for round 1.
  8. You wouldn't have to worry about that. He would never make it through waivers.
  9. We're at least one additional infield injury away from thinking about Brooks Lee.
  10. Yes. Play the matchup. Ryan has a great fastball that can shut down certain lineups but not others.
  11. 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.
  12. You all think they're done with injuries this season?
  13. Runs allowed is actually better.
  14. MLB Trade Rumors did their pitcher preview
  15. I don't think he would get a 4 year deal either.
  16. 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.
  17. Strongly disagree. He has the same age/success profile as Yu Darvish.
  18. 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.
  19. 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.
  20. Will Gray make another regular season start on 9/27 or will they skip Lopez and Gray to let them rest for the playoffs?
  21. I wish that were true. He's not good but I have heard many who are worse.
  22. This is the biggest no-brainer. The vote for Twins MVP is 1) Gray 2) Lopez.
