    Worth reminding people that baseball has the most parity of any major sport. The Brewers have the best record in baseball.

    Right now their only hope is he has learned from all the mistakes he has made, changed the way he values talent and come up with a new strategy. Anyone see any evidence of that?

    Gus Varland is free agent

    Buy tickets if you think the price is fair for the entertainment. Otherwise, don't. This is really a simple decision.

    He seems to be playing hard for Houston....

    Sabato is 26 and has a .768 OPS in AAA. That’s nothing special.
  7. DJL44
    Empty stadiums are fine with me. That leads to better ticket bargains. I just don’t want to be there if people are spending the game yelling at the owners.

    The Lynx are in the middle of a championship season RIGHT NOW

    I’m pretty sure this is how it will be the rest of the season in the comment section “Why don’t they bring up the young guys from AAA” Twins bring up a rookie “This guy sucks, why did they bring him up from AAA?”

    Outman should come up

    I really hope every remaining game doesn’t turn into a protest for upset fans. People need to relax, literally. It’s a baseball game. It’s not important. It’s a chance to unwind and enjoy summer. I have been attending more Saints games lately, but mostly because the tickets are cheaper and access is easier from my house. I would attend a Twins game again even if the Pohlads continue to own the team because it’s not about them. It’s about me enjoying watching baseball at the highest level. I really don’t want other people telling me I can’t enjoy baseball anymore. If you are disgruntled please stay home. If you want to protest and change the world, pick something that actually matters. There are hundreds of other things that are broken in this world that could use that energy.

    Robust, but the return will be for a 1-season, expiring contract pitcher.
  13. DJL44
    2 and 3 are in direct conflict with each other. If they aren't worth anything to the Twins due to a lost 2027 season, then they aren't worth anything to any other teams for the same reason. I don't agree with #1. Joe Ryan is cheap and Pablo Lopez is getting paid way below market rate. If the Twins can't afford these guys then they will NEVER be able to build a contender. You can't contend with 26 players with less than 3 years experience on pre-arbitration salaries.

    Loved watching Keaschall hit the ball to the right side of the infield to bring the runner in from 3B. That situational hitting has been rare this season.

    Late developing often means they’re taking advantage of younger competition. Sure, Fedko might be better than Martin, but he’s most likely not and I don’t even like Martin. Fedko has a AAAA non-prospect profile like McCusker or Keirsey or Gasper. The odds are against his success.
  16. DJL44
    I don’t know how you read that between the lines. I find Austin Martin quite frustrating and was really happy they signed Bader. I just have low expectations for players who are old for their level and debut at age 26. Fedko reminds me a little of Dustan Mohr. Decent platoon player for a few seasons. Even Mohr debuted at age 25.
  17. DJL44
    They're both 4th OF, but Martin has already shown he can hit enough to be a 4th OF in the majors and Fedko hasn't yet. Martin has the higher floor and a similar ceiling. Fedko could be right-handed hitting Dashawn Keirsey. Gonzalez could actually become a starting outfielder.
  18. DJL44
    Fedko has very little upside. He might be good enough to hold down a bench job for a while but unlikely to ever become a starting caliber player.

  20. DJL44
    I expect Austin Martin would be the 2nd RH OF in the 2026 outfield. Fedko would be sent to AAA to wait for an injury callup.
  21. DJL44
    Contenders don't really need "bulk" relievers. Contenders have starting pitchers who can give you 5-6 innings consistently. Long relief is more of a need for bad teams than good ones.
  22. DJL44
    Fair enough on Abel. More of an issue with Bradley. Do they really think Jose Urena is a better option than Abel or Bradley?
  23. DJL44
    Based on the other news I've seen recently about Las Vegas, they probably will attract large crowds since ballpark prices on food and drink are still noticeably lower than casino prices.
  24. DJL44
    And a very nice, mostly empty stadium

    I am wondering what this announcement says about the next CBA. We're definitely not getting full revenue sharing with financial transparency. You might get a salary cap, but no floor. Less revenue to the players overall. 2027 season is unlikely, which may be why everything is getting sold off for prospects.
