    You don't see Rocco missing a chance to get his RH "hitters" into the lineup.
  2. USAFChief
    Nm

    I realize new age statheads will scoff, but there is no offensive statistic more crucial than RBIs. And we ain't got any RBI guys.
  4. USAFChief
    If we throw in a prospect or three, can we trade managers?
  5. USAFChief
    I cannot take this team seriously. Oh-for-the-season, in often embarrassing fashion, against Cleveland, Baltimore and NY isn't an anomaly.
  6. USAFChief
    I've been pounding on this since last season. It's such a glaring, obvious, incredibly stupid mistake. And he gets abused by opposing managers over, and over, and over again. We need a MLB manager.
  7. USAFChief
    No. No it doesn't. It's not real difficult to find good CF defense. He's a problem, and it appears to be getting worse. For the record, his "modest" $15m salary is more than 10% of the budget.

    I cannot take this team seriously.

    .179/.284/.263 entering tonight. He shouldn't even be the regular 2nd baseman on the Eden Valley-Watkins town ball team.
  10. USAFChief
    Not sure what I hate worse: -Lopez peeing down his leg Or -Boone playing Baldelli for the fool he is, getting Larnach and Kirilloff out of the game in the 6th. I guess I'll go with Baldelli being worse. In his case it's entirely voluntary.
  11. USAFChief
    Why TF not?
  12. USAFChief
    Once again, Rocco "can't wait to get my best hitters out of the game" Baldelli lets Christian ".400 OPS" Vazquez hit in the 8th inning trailing by a couple runs. We need a MLB manager.
  13. USAFChief
    If you're going to lecture us on math, you should take care to get the math correct. If the Twins had won .559% of their games this season they'd be roughly 3-56. That projects to ~9 wins this season.

    Your examples of how many PAs the Yankees give to poor offensive players are Torres, Rizzo, Stanton and LeMahieu?? They have certainly had injury issues over the past several years, but c'mon. Nice use of 2023 runs scored, BTW. You missed 807 in 2022, and how about this year?
  15. USAFChief
    The proper move was to send Farmer packing, but there are 6 million bad reasons they didn’t. Ridiculous.
  16. USAFChief
    Huh? First of all, Farmer has only 106 PAs all season. And Farmer for May: .242/.306/.333
  17. USAFChief
    No more so than Farmer, Margot, and Santana. I do agree Wallner needed to go away. And I've never had much hope for Martin. But opportunity should work both ways.
  18. USAFChief
    I don't see a single reason to keep Farmer over Julien. He's worse on both sides of the ball. And the other options aren't 2nd basemen.
  19. USAFChief
    Why Julien over Farmer? What does Farmer provide? He's not even the backup SS any longer. Ridiculous.
  20. USAFChief
    And more at catcher.
  21. USAFChief
    Some godawful pitching.
  22. USAFChief
    I'm sure it has, but who cares? It's the 8th inning. You need 4 to tie. 2 on, none out, a RH reliever that can't be removed. One of the weakest hitters in baseball at the plate. Multiple LH options on the bench. Top of the order up next. You HOPE the 9th spot in the lineup rolls around again and you have to PH or let your pitcher hit. That would be a GREAT outcome. I'd bet every other manager in baseball PH's in that spot. Did any of the weak Twin City media even ask the question? Did the author above? It's so blindingly obvious.
  23. USAFChief
    Maybe, maybe not. But they don't put them in the lineup every other day.
  24. USAFChief
    Somebody please try to defend this: you're down 5-1 in the 8th, 2 on nobody out, with Christian "sub-.400 OPS" Vazquez due up...RH reliever on the mound who CANNOT leave the game ...and you let Vazquez hit. With 3 LH sluggers on the bench available to PH. I don't care if it would cost the DH. You HAVE TO PH there. You have to. But no. Rocco "can't wait to get my LH hitters out of the game" Baldelli doesn't. Weak tap to short, 6-4-3, bingo bingo bongo, 2 out 1 on. We need a MLB manager.
