    With all due respect, you are just pulling numbers put of thin air. As shown by ITF above. Ignoring the fact there's 5 other months to consider besides just September, you're going to have to explain to me why 87 wins is the sweet spot to attract September fans, but 100 isn't better. And for the record, let's assume 15 September home games. If they DID attract an extra 10000 per game, that's 150,000. Not 500,000.

    At the risk of beating this horse further into the ground... Your contention is the Twins--in contrast to their stated goals and obvious needs--didn't add any starting pitching this past winter. With the one trade they made. Do I have that correct?

    Seattle was trying to cut payroll by adding payroll? Seattle was trying to add an infielder they'd long been interested in. The Twins were trying to add a starter. The rest is filler.

    Your math is fine, the problem is you pulled it from thin air.
  5. USAFChief
    Wouldn't 100 wins do a better job of attracting fans?
  6. USAFChief
    On the plus side, hard to argue with bullpen performance to date.
  7. USAFChief
    To be fair, they had Martin left.

    Heck, I'm generally a platoon advantage guy. I think LH pitching has been tough for every LH hitter in the history of baseball. But...even if one believes that, taking Julien out for a dubious RH hitter that early just about guarantees Margot is getting 1 or 2 ABs later giving up the platoon advantage. Maybe Julien wont hit LH pitching, ever. But I'm pretty confident Julien against RH pitching is a better hitter than Margot against a lefty. Don't do it.

    I'll also be happy to make my daily rant about removing good hitters for bad hitters for a 1 time platoon advantage in the middle innings. It just means you're getting worse platoon mismatches later.

    I strongly doubt Rocco called for that bunt. Pretty sure that was all Margot.

    winnah!

    Looks like I'll miss the home opener. A couple months ago I saw a robbery go down at an Apple store. I have to testify in court tomorrow. ... That's right. I'm the prosecution's key Iwitness.

    Oh FFS, Okert.

    A little insurance is always a good idea.

    I can live with Jax vs 2-3-4 and somebody else 5-6-7 if it turns out that way.
  16. USAFChief
    So you claim.
  17. USAFChief
    nice job, Cap'n
  18. USAFChief
    Better than the other way around.
  19. USAFChief
    so he claims.
  20. USAFChief
    Jax it is.
  21. USAFChief
    protection from thunderbolts and lightning? very very fright'ning.
  22. USAFChief
    Thankfully there's a pill for that. h/t aggies
  23. USAFChief
    I'd guess Okert
  24. USAFChief
    That catch from Correa is why I'm not a major league shortstop. ... Well, It's ONE reason I'm not a major league shortstop.
  25. USAFChief
    I've decided to take up meditation. It's better than sitting on my *** doing nothing.
