    I added the “snark” indicator afterward “always know what the indicator is” — third base coach

    I’d suggest that we trade Berrios, but what team would even want him? Edit: better add the /s and remind every one to have fun with this, for better or worse

    Here’s the new proposed photo to accompany the definition of “laboring” in American Heritage Dictionary:

    I am sure the Twins can compete in 2022 if they improve their pitching. We had a similar conversation about Brian Dozier after the 100-loss 2016 season. Against the wishes of fans on this discussion board, the Twins kept Dozier instead of trading him—and then he helped lead the Twins to the postseason the following season. I had a lot of confidence in this front office at that time. Let’s add to the pitching staff between now and 2022, instead of subtracting from it, and go into next year and see what happens. Anyone confident that the front office can negotiate a nice return for Berrios now should be equally confident that they can negotiation a slightly less nice return for Berrios a year from now, if need be.

    Glasnow will be an interesting case. Anyone browsing the web can try going to Tyler Glasnow’s baseballsavant profile page and looking at his spin rate increases, year to year. Keep in mind before interpreting the data that, at least by my understanding, there are still open questions on what a good spin rate is, or how much an increase helps, or how much of an increase should be viewed as suspicious. Scroll halfway down (if on smartphone) to the Pitch Tracking section, then click on +View More Seasons to expand back to 2015, and keep swiping all the way right (on smartphone) until you get to the Spin column. The number for most players will usually be in the two thousands and will represent the revolutions per minute that the ball turns on the way from the pitcher’s hand to home plate.

    I’m convinced 29 out of 30 MLB managers send Ober out for the fifth.
  11. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Not only for Ober, but the other pitchers. Guys like to see their teammates succeed and achieve things. It could have been a nicer game ball moment after the game. It doesn’t mean much in the grand scheme, no, but it seems punitive for Rocco to withhold that small statistical accomplishment from him. Not a fan of how that went down.
  12. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Agree. Way too easy to get last night’s extra overworked inning back on a future date.
  13. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I’m confident we can get Ober’s fastball up to 100mph if this thread goes a few more pages!
  14. Hosken Bombo Disco
    One more inning, 15-20 more pitches, and let the guy walk around the clubhouse 1-0 and feeling good about this for a few days.
  15. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Good lord let the guy start the fifth and get the win

    Willians Astudillo, table setter...
  18. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Cash coming back??
  19. Hosken Bombo Disco
    What do Bailey Ober and Jacob deGrom have in common? haha nothing j/k Both retired their opponents 9-up, 9-down in their games today.
  20. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Tagging up, small ball, taking the extra base... Baldelli must have held a team practice today ??
  21. Hosken Bombo Disco
    And now the radio guys pissed that Astudillo walked and broke some streak. And people think this cynicism is only on Twins Daily!
  22. Hosken Bombo Disco
    The high point of the season was the first inning of the first game, when Donaldson hit a double to the gap, the two seconds between the video of the ball rolling to the wall and the camera showing Donaldson grimacing in pain running to second @Giles Ferrell
  23. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Now we just need Bailey Ober to pitch a compete game shutout
  24. Hosken Bombo Disco
    The RISPing starts early !! ?
  25. Hosken Bombo Disco
