Or moves a runner(s). Zero percent of Ks drive in a run. -
Now plantar fasciitis is an excuse for hitting into double plays?

Your argument should be with the person claiming Jeffers has been "more impactful offensively" than Arraez. He hasn't been.

Add me to the list of people thinking that dumping players into a pennant chase is unsportsmanlike at best, unethical at worst. This is crap. Regardless if the Twins end up with Moore or Renfroe.

Plenty of blame to go around, but IMO putting Funderbunk into that situation was just plain bad managing. Worse than bad. Please don't try to tell me "managers don't matter." Worst loss of the year.

All true, except the part about Thielbar , and none of that excuses letting Mark Funderbunk lose this game when he wasn't the last guy left in the pen. That's an error at least as bad as those you listed. I'd say miles worse. And let's not forget somehow having Gallo start the game but decide that's a bad idea in his SECOND plate appearance against THE SAME PITCHER.

This bullpen just isn't good enough. Never was, from day 1. Front office malpractice. All that said, putting a nobody like Funderbunk into that situation unnecessarily is just stupid.

Seems optimistic

*By one measure for a partial season .... Arraez has scored or driven in 108 runs minus HRs so as not to count that run twice) Jeffers, 50. Which is "more impactful" when measuring things that actually impact games, rather than spreadsheets?

Some pretty ugly ones, too.

Thielbar is awful.

MAT got abused.

Solano's a bit of an adventure anywhere.

Nice job Sonny. Now crack open a cold one and let the pen finish it.

The dreaded 6th for Sonny...

Smattering of boos at TF after that popup...

How does Rocco justify Gallo in the lineup if he's going to be PH for in the 5th, 2nd AB, against a RHer? And it's Jordan Luplow, ferpetesakes. I mean, WTF?

For those who like to umpire using the box on the broadcast, look how badly it represents the strike zone against Calhoun. The top of the box is literally lower than his belt.

Here are the details of Correa's contract: https://www.spotrac.com/mlb/minnesota-twins/carlos-correa-14168/ 2023: $33,333,333 2024: $33,333,333 2025: $37,333,333 2026: $32,833,333 2027: $31,833,333 2028: $31,333,333 2029: vesting option $25m 2030: vesting option $20 2031: vesting option $15 2032: vesting option $10 The vesting options have multiple ways to become guaranteed, with the most likely being PAs the season prior, starting at 575 in 2028 for 2029 and gradually dropping to 502 in 2031 for 2032. The others are mostly awards (silver slugger, MVPs etc).

Baltimore has the best record in the AL. Better than the Dodgers. Run differential over 100. While playing in the best division in baseball. This article isn't worthy of TD.

And I LOVE this ****. Don't pimp a HR if you don't wanna get drilled in the ribs. And if you do drill the guy, expect one in return. It's baseball. I love it.
