    Storybook return avoided.
  2. USAFChief
    Played terrifically, champ.
  3. USAFChief
    He gone?
  4. USAFChief
    "Partially torn (rotator) cuff" ... Or maybe "pick to click"

    If there's some plan for Buxton to return to CF, then Lewis to 3rd makes a lot of sense to me. Otherwise...you're 100 percent spot on.
  6. USAFChief
    I said the same in the game thread. Every team in MLB has a CFer who catches that pop fly, with ease. Except us, who have Willi Castro in CF.

    "Making Buxton's latest swoon even tougher to stomach is the growing inconvenience of his situation and its collateral implications." Some of us have been saying this all year. Making Buxton a full time DH hurts the team, rather than making it stronger. It has the effect of making MAT your full time DH. And it's made even worse when Buxton is turned into Rob Deer. One tool, rather than 5.

    What, and lose Solano??!?
  9. USAFChief
    Coupla really nice ABs there from Buxton and Castro.
  10. USAFChief
    I can confirm. //pre-emptive age joke

    Andrew Romine was the last to play all 9 positions in a game...against your Minnesota Twins https://www.mlb.com/news/players-to-play-all-9-positions-in-same-mlb-game#:~:text=Bert Campaneris%2C A's&text=The most accomplished player on,positions in an eventful game.

    Every team in baseball has a center fielder that catches that pop fly from Kirk. Except us.

    One of the worst trades in Twins history, and that's before you take into account the results. Murphy wasn't in the same talent league as Hicks. Not even close. Really awful use of resources. You can't be that far short on the balance of talent scale on a trade.

    WPA is 100 percent context driven and a terrible way to determine how much impact a given player would have had on another team. Meaningless, even. Arraez has 184 PAs of .424 OBP. That would be valuable to any offense, including the Twins. Lopez has given the Twins 60 IP of 111 OPS+ starting pitching. Also valuable. It's fair to both recognize both the value AND cost of the Lopez trade. There's no need to try to justify the trade by minimizing Arraez. He's been good. Really good. Better than every Twin except Kirilloff.

    Nitpic, but I don't think most people consider Dave St Peter to be the "front office." I mean, in normal business terms he absolutely is. But in baseball, most would consider Falvine to be "the front office." But yeah, St Peter surely said what he said, and without looking I'd guess they're off to an even worse start with attendance so far this year.
  16. USAFChief
    How to determine if your offense blows: 1. Is Donovan Solano hitting third? If yes, skip remainder of quiz.
  17. USAFChief
    The constant batching about the strike zone is annoying and unwarranted.
  18. USAFChief
    Can you point me to what "this board" predicted?
  19. USAFChief
    Ftfy
  20. USAFChief
    Uffda
  21. USAFChief
    I'd say more like we took a gutshot with heavy internal bleeding, which wasn't fatal but could take a turn for the worse.
  22. USAFChief
    I think it's unreasonable to expect Moran TO throw enough strikes.
  23. USAFChief
    This should be Lopez, not Stewart.
  24. USAFChief
    That might be the worst managed ballgame I've ever seen.
  25. USAFChief
    I don't believe they're required to take infield either. Ridiculous
