    They are a universe apart. Start by asking how many non-player employees hire agents to represent them.
  2. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I think you are conflating business operations with baseball operations.
  3. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Should’ve asked for 4 runs! Lol
  4. Hosken Bombo Disco
    try searching Jamie Quirk, any random at bat from his 1984 season
  5. Hosken Bombo Disco
    those Quirky cheap radios
  6. Hosken Bombo Disco
    He seems like a good guy and hard worker, and probably aware that everyone knows he strikes out too much
  7. Hosken Bombo Disco
    2 runs in five innings for Ober. Not bad, all things considered.
  8. Hosken Bombo Disco
    The website says Gallo just struck out. That can’t be right, I assume there is a glitch
  9. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Neither! MLB website

    what the heck is a “singles on a fly ball to shortstop” i will assume a texas leaguer?
  11. Hosken Bombo Disco
    did you try turning it on and off lol
  12. Hosken Bombo Disco
    The front office would look like geniuses for staying a million miles away from this! (and one of Royce Lewis and or Brooks Lee would have their natural position to play)
  13. Hosken Bombo Disco
    A win makes for a better flight home
  14. Hosken Bombo Disco
    and do you know why there's no crying in baseball? 🙂
  15. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Actually, I don’t disagree. I needed a starting pitcher comp on the Twins, even though there isn’t a very good one. I didn’t want to use Sonny Gray, so I used Maeda. Maybe I should have used Joe Ryan….
  16. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Will be a shame when he's sent back down for [fill in the blank] reason /snark
  17. Hosken Bombo Disco
    So that’s where you were going with that 🙂

    I guess to clear up any confusion:

    I want to see a competitive AL Central race as much as the next guy, but Cleveland has had the looks of a 90 loss team since about mid-June. Their GM apparently saw the same thing I was seeing. Or vice versa. Good year for them to retool. I’m seeing people really downplaying that 1B prospect. Sounds more like sour grapes, but who knows. You mention he will have impact in 2027. By that timeline, we should expect Julien to start having an impact by 2026, then? By the way, welcome to Twins Daily. 🙂
  20. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Cleveland and Minnesota should be dueling it out with 90-plus win seasons year after year. That’s what a fun summer of baseball looks like to me!

    Civale is doing great but is a continual injury risk. They definitely sold high. Gutsy and probably smart. Someone compared Manzardo to Miranda, lol, did they even look at their minor league numbers? What Cleveland did here was the equivalent of the Twins trading Gallo and Maeda. If the Twins had done that, all of the writers on here would be praising the front office to no end. And none of the writers are mentioning how Cleveland lost their top two starters to injury. Convenient omission. Imagine the angst if the Twins had lost two of their best starters. (No, Mahle doesn’t count.) This was the perfect season for Cleveland to retool. They can give some of their young starters a nice run, see how they perform. And Cleveland does have some nice young starters ready for the chance to break through. They always do. I don’t think they are trying to win the division this year. All the better for the Twins who seem to be in “win now” mode anyway. Unlike the Twins, Cleveland does have some problems to address in the offseason, but Antonetti has set them up nicely for 2024 and beyond.
  22. Hosken Bombo Disco
    This, thank you.

    I thought they definitely should have made a move to add to their bullpen yesterday. But as far as bullpen help for the first playoff round, here’s an idea we can start thinking about. The Twins will only need three starters there, so when is the best time to sit down with them as a unit and lay this out? Who would volunteer to pitch from the bullpen? If we count it out 1-2-3-4-5 from now until the end of the season, the game one starter would be Lopez’s turn, followed by Ryan, then Gray. I kind of like the idea of Ober starting game two and saving Gray for an inning or two in relief, so the rotation will need to be adjusted before then. I would offer Gray the game one and game five starts for the second round to see if he would be willing to pitch in the bullpen that first round. Either that or be left off the roster.

    I think there honestly needs to be a #4: They were a little spooked that last year’s deadline deals were a disaster.
  25. Hosken Bombo Disco
    You are correct, I forgot that the postseason is seeded with byes for 1 and 2 like the NFL now.
