  1. Bundy has 6 bad starts where he went less than 5 innings. He has almost twice as many good starts as bad. He has zero good starts where he went less than 5......He has 7 where he went 5.1 or more innings. https://www.fangraphs.com/players/dylan-bundy/12917/game-log?position=P&season=
  2. It won't be JRod.... The catcher from Baltimore will win.
  3. The rookie of the year will be Rutshman. He's a catcher that plays great D and hits Miranda is like fifth on war.... All three are great additions to the twins. Posters here seem to forget Ryan is a rookie.
  4. Which other pitcher was traded that was better, that they could get? Mahle wasn't some cheap, bad, pitcher.
  5. Three good pitchers were traded. Two were possibly hurt, and one was too expensive. Those were the options, whether we like it or not. So, Mahle or ? Whether you wanted more or not isn't relevant to which starter was actually available. So, of the three, did you want one, or not? If so, which one? Castillo would cost Lewis, SWR and two more top five guys.
  6. Only three good pitchers were traded, and two were potentially hurt, and they couldn't match what Seattle did. They tried to win, rather than sit still. I can't believe people wanted them to do nothing?
  7. I count 13 good starts and 7 bad starts for Bundy. While I generally think fWAR makes sense, I think that pitchers are different every five days. Some days are good, some bad. I don't think you can peanut butter their play across the year like you can hitters. If you had been told you'd get 13 good and 7 bad starts from Bundy at the beginning of the year, you'd be thrilled. Very thrilled.
  8. They've both been better than I thought. So, yes.
  9. A lot less off days this year, due to the late start to the year. That said, I doubt he's starting a game in the post season, though if he did, four innings would be great
  10. Because Verlander is a hall of fame pitcher that has shown he can go further into games. Not that it matters, he isn't signing here.
  11. How is Contreras not on this list? I'd be very happy if they signed him, and I'm a Jeffers fan.
  12. David Ortiz would like a word with you about hitting behind the runner.... And, sacrifice bunts are a terrible idea before the 8th inning. Terrible.
  13. There is no reason he should be on a contender's roster. I've lost faith in the front office over this, frankly.
  14. There aren't many great pitchers available next year. They'll have to outbid everyone for one of three, maybe four.
  15. The first two are easy. As is Archer, given how few innings he pitches I'm unsure on Bundy. They have two healthy, likely good, pitchers next year. I'm not sure Bundy is worth 11 million, but I'm not sure he's not either.
  16. They weren't going to pitch the 8th and 9th, which is where it was lost
  17. Their two best pitchers lost that game before their worst pitcher took the mound. If they don't DFA Pagan, I'm not sure I can support this front office.
  18. Yikes! Guess I should have watched the auto fill more closely!
  19. I'd go Larnach, given what the OF looks like some days Then Ober. Though I'd consider Maeda instead if he could start. Then Jeffers. I really don't think people her compare gin to other catchers..... If we can go to guys that won't be back this year, Lewis would be next, as he can play SS and OF.
  20. I think SWR will be starting for the big league team no later than June of next year.
  21. This reads like the thread after the first Toronto game, where people said the twins had no chance. Not that I think they are as good as the elite teams.......
