  1. Small sample size, but Delmon Young is easily better than.what Martin has showed.
  2. False. Ohtani, Betts, Freeman, Hernandez play almost every day. Will Smith has more PAs than any Twin. There is zero evidence "load management" is beneficial. There are teams playing their best players virtually every day. As they should.
  3. You know who doesn't worry about "workload management?" The Dodgers, Braves, Yankees and Orioles. The four best teams in the game. If their best players are healthy, they play. Every day.
  4. Martin has been among the worst outfielders I've seen in my 60+ years of watching the Twins. Inconceivably bad.
  5. And those of us who had ALREADY paid for those games lost them, and were expected to pay for yet another service. There is zero chance Roku ends up free, BTW. Streaming services aren't free, at least not for long.
  6. You remember correctly. And all it accomplished was to decrease the number of people able to watch, and piss them off. I know, because I was one of them, and complaints were loud and numerous on Gopherhole. Peacock isn't free, BTW. Splintering coverage is a stupid idea.
  7. Martin has been among the worst outfielders I've seen in 60+ years of Twins baseball. Absolutely awful. He's been directly responsible for multiple runs already and that is tough to do in a few weeks. And that's on top of a mid-.600s OPS with zero power. Get him back to St Paul, ASAP.
  8. Heh. Examine that statement, closely.
  9. Tonight's outfield play by the Twins was not major league. Castro was awful, and the Twins can't continue to run Martin out there. To top it off, tonight's lineup was about as weak as you'll ever see from a MLB team.
  10. that's slighly misleading since the Twins have played fewer games than all but 2 teams. Going into tonight's game the Twins had the 26th most innings pitched. Over 30 innings behind San Diego, who leads MLB. It would follow then that the Twins would have fewer relief IP. But I agree Baldelli generally follows current orthodoxy regarding starter innings.
  11. Leave it to RpR to make us all chuckle with some nonsense.
  12. Martin back to AAA ASAP. Really need a better CF option than Castro. The Margot trade looks worse and worse since he's not even an option for CF. Stop jamming poor hitters into the lineup.
  13. For one thing, don't put that anemic ******* lineup out to start the game.
  14. Well that was an embarrassing 6 innings.
  15. What he told him was "The only thing you know about pitching is you can't hit it." edit; ninja'd by UNY
  16. Martin is simply not a major league outfielder.
  17. That was a terrible 0-2 pitch. And a terrible throw from Castro. That has to go to 3rd
  18. Torres smoked that ball up the middle
  19. JHFC Castro. He's been awful in CF. Routine catch missed. and then give up ANOTHER base.
  20. Lots of ?cottonwood? in the air at the stadium.
  21. Yup, Further splintering the methods needed to watch the Twins is not the answer.
