    5 outs, 8 baserunners, if my math is correct.

    More like Squirrel reaching for the tab at dinner.

    He looked at third on the steal, wonder if it was a double steal and missed sign.
  4. USAFChief
    Ftfy

    I've never understood the hype. Moderate stuff combined with iffy command.
  6. USAFChief
    Ick.

    I hope it's cherry kool-aid you're drinking, like it should be. Or at least orange. Not any of them fake new flavors. 'Cause those ain't kool-aid.
  8. USAFChief
    Yes.
  9. USAFChief
    You're going to be disappointed.

    I don't want any flipping streaming service as the only option. Things were just fine when we had a sensible cable or satellite delivery system. All the cord cutters are 100 percent responsible for the current mess. Happy?

    Yeah, the idea that teams basically ran at will on Jeffers because of Twins pitchers is more urban legend than fact. Jeffers has a slow release and doesn't throw well. That's why he can't throw out runners.

    Taylor would be the illustration you'd find if you were to look up "defense-only veteren" in The Baseball Dictionary.

    Fine, maybe he'll be healthy enough to play soon. Hope so. Probably will be. But your original statement was "just because he's not seeing game action doesn't mean he's not healthy. " I don't believe that's the case for any player. If he was healthy, he'd be playing in ST games. He's not disabled, obviously, and there's still 2.5 weeks of ST left, but he's not "healthy."
  14. USAFChief
    What? There are no healthy MLB regulars who don't see any game action in spring training. None. For any team. Nobody is playing every day, or even playing 9 innings. But no healthy players aren't seeing ANY game time.

    "Don't play him because he might get hurt and then he won't play. Have him sit out games so he doesn't have to sit out games." There's a logic flaw there somewhere. Can't put my finger on it, but I sense it.

    I think it's fair to say recent Twins spending has been better, with 2023 completely ok. While acknowledging the Twins rather long history of spending NOT being OK, and in fact a definite factor in their inability to compete at the highest levels. This is a team that ran Jason Tyner out at DH and Randy Dobnak as a starter in a postseason game. I'd be fine with 2023 level relative spending...if it continues.

    I concur position flexibility has become something of a necessity in the days of massive pitching staffs. However...I strongly disagree with the part about playing lesser players just to play them. Why play your lesser players when you don't have to? Play them when/if you need to, because the better player is unavailable. If the better player never becomes unavailable, great. No need for the lesser guy.

    Try this: "Farmer sacrifices into double play, left to second." That's hilarious, and I'd like to take credit, but TBH I copied and pasted from game day.
  19. USAFChief
    No room for Hand, but room for this?
  20. USAFChief
    Winner.
  21. USAFChief
    Groovy, man. Like, far out.
  22. USAFChief
    Hai, dozo.
  23. USAFChief
    Spot on.
  24. USAFChief
    ...the Twins will finish at the bottom of the ALC.
  25. USAFChief
    I doubt the shift ban has much effect on offense anywhere. Getting strikeouts down to something resembling historical levels would.
