  1. Well, two are likely gone after this year..... So there will be space next year.
  2. 25 HR and .275 would be all star level hitting in this environment.
  3. No chance. Plus, why wouldn't that team have just signed him? No chance.
  4. Way worse than normal this year for sure. I did play Chambers Bay yesterday, in no rain. And league tomorrow should be dry.... I do agree, it doesn't feel like baseball yet.
  5. You moved there by choice!
  6. Mahle is pitching 4-5 innings at his normal speed? How is he not ready? To answer your question....because they have to think about the future, not just day one. Maeda doesn't have options (though, I would put him in the pen and just rewrite his contract and use him as a 2 inning guy).
  7. And I'm overly so on Lee.....hopefully we are both right.
  8. No staff averaged that. Not even close. I have no doubt they'll let at least three starters go 6 most starts (Ryan, Gray, Lopez). They did that when they had good pitchers before. As for Mahle and Maeda, that depends on health and how they are doing that day and how rested the pen is.
  9. I have more confidence in a Gallo bounceback than you.....but hope the leash is short if he's not hitting and Wallner is crushing AAA.
  10. Fair, I just don't think Miranda is as good as Lee (O or D)......but I hope to be wrong. I also think Julien is a potentially great hitter, and feel he can play 2nd, first or DH. Frankly, I think Wallner and Julien should have 1B gloves.....
  11. When did he last sign a MLB deal? I don't get the angst, frankly. I'm happy for him, but I don't think this matters to the Twins much at all. Also, Winder was pitching on a back field today.....
  12. Like, "anyone" can play first, but Gallo is elite in the OF (on D). I just don't get it.
  13. Almost zero chance they deal Lee. He's their starting 3B this year or next, imo. Or Lewis. I just don't see what they could get back that would be worth sending them off.
  14. Which makes it odd he's at first, IMO....
  15. What changes for the vast majority of fans if they are more transparent? I see only downsides, frankly.
  16. AAA, possibly MLB if there are enough injuries or things go very badly. Lewis is your starting CF at some point, with Buxton at DH most of the time and playing 40 or so games in center. Larnach in left and EROD in right eventually. Martin (if he's ever healthy) the backup CF and LF. It is also likely Wallner forces his way into the discussion at first, DH, right field.....That depends a lot on Larnach's health.
  17. If AK can produce, or Miranda moves to first (or Julien) and Lee is at third, there is upside. Alas, there is downside with Polanco already hurt.....
  18. Truth. Paddock getting hurt was a blow. Not piggy backing was a weird choice, imo.
  19. Of those 124 pitchers, Bundy had the 20th worst ERA, and Archer 26th, if you prefer ERA.
  20. 124 pitchers pitched 100 innings or more. Bundy was 109th in fwar, and Archer was worse. How is that anything other than terrible?
  21. I can read, I can also look at stats. They were terrible relative to the league. You only have to go to leaderboards and sort.
  22. Which objective truth are stat people ignoring for narrative?
  23. Based on Mahle being better then Bundy nearly every year lately? Or do you think he's hurt?
