The entire situation smells, IYAM. -
As expected
-
Sylvester Stallone, Jean Claude VanDamme, and Arnold Schwarzenegger are sitting around discussing casting for their upcoming musical. Stallone: "I'll be Beethoven." VanDamme: "I'll be Mozart." Schwarzenegger: "Nope. Forget it."

It's a curse, Master Chief.

Topa is coming off a knee issue.

I gave up on Rocco last year. Started a thread, even.
-
I believe that's twice now. Good grief indeed.
-
Don't be ridiculous. Rocco would never pick numbers from a hat. This is the Twins. I'm guessing he uses a random number generator app on his phone. Which probably then goes through some other app to auto-populate the digital lineup card, on a 3rd app. He emails it to the home plate ump. After spell check, of course. He's probably already got the 5th inning PH notated on the scorecard.

The Twins' Catching Rotation is Costing Them
USAFChief replied to Ted Schwerzler 's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
Adley Rutschman caught 110 games last season. Cal Raleigh 128. Those are games at catcher, not DH or another position. Rutschman played 154 total. I can go on. Standard fulltime workload for a catcher has traditionally been 110-120 games. That's still the case today, if you have a number 1 catcher and injury doesn't cut into playing time. -
(Farmer)...generating an RBI while doing a Javier Báez impression on Wednesday... I can't believe I need to say this--in a TD article no less--but a hitter isn't given an RBI on a WP or PB.

While It'd be nice to get Jeffers behind the plate more, there really isn't much for bats to DH. So the net effect is, someone of Vazquez's caliber is in the lineup either way. -
All correct, except there's no way it changes THIS year.
-
Winnah. Suh-weep. Nice, but somehow....feels sort of ... dirty. Like, I wanted a candy bar and all, but taking it from a kid kinds of ruins the taste.
-
Santana, you had one job!!
-
Robbie. Gross, man.
-
catcher interference?
-
There's a reason Okert was going to be DFA'd by Miami this spring.
-
Let that be a lessen to ya. Eff work.
-
Indeed, but it beats the alternative.

Provus: "Santana with his first of the year!" Morneau: "He knows what to do with that pitch." Heh.
-
Brock Stewart too.
-
To be fair, if the goal is defense to protect a lead, the one thing Santana brings to the table is good defense. And he's a first baseman, not sure how that's related to Buxton.
