  1. 1. East Coast Bias is a real thing - most East Coast fans and most of the major media in any sport don't think superstars should play anywhere but NYC, Boston, Philly, etc... Fans spit balling trades is one thing, actual members of the media doing so (and being serious about it) is another. 2. Just this morning I found 5 articles rumoring that Buxton should be/will be traded, 3 suggesting NYY, Philly or ATL, a 4th was behind a paywall (I will assume because was Tim Dierkes at MLBTR it was suggesting an East Coast team) and the other team mentioned was Cincinnati. 5 articles written about trading a guy with both a no-trade clause and 10 & 5 rights, most suggesting he be traded to an East Coast team....yeah, there's no media/pundit bias there at all!!! 3. Before the 2025 season McLean (your trade example) was ranked #99 by BA, #74 by BP and not a Top 100 prospect in the eyes of MLB.com or FanGraphs, so roughly a #85 prospect or lower, and would have been easily attainable in a Ryan (or Lopez) trade in 2025 by your estimate of trade return. Before 2026 he was never ranked as the best prospect in the Mets system, but the Mets were right to not trade him as he has outperformed expectations.
  2. He'll need to do better than 0-4 with 3 K's (today's line)...
  3. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2026/05/jose-berrios-undergoes-tommy-john-surgery.html
  4. Buxton goes 2-5 with 2 doubles, scores the only run, but is the 2nd lowest WPA...sounds like a great stat to me!!!!
  5. McCullers scratched, Alexander gets the start. He has not pitched well this year, hopefully the Twins can continue this trend....
  6. I guess the Jeffers injury qualifies to recall a pitcher before 10 days afterall... TY
  7. Adams was just sent down on the 14th and needs to be in St. Paul for 10 days unless there is an injury. Unless Jeffers can be classified as a pitcher, I don't think Adams is coming up before the 23rd/24th.
  8. Not good news for Jeffers. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2026/05/twins-ryan-jeffers-hamate-fracture-alex-jackson.html
  9. There are guys on the 10 and 15 day IL that could be moved to the 60 day IL...
  10. Topa just got DFA'd https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2026/05/twins-option-royce-lewis.html
  11. DFA Topa and Garcia, recall Bowman and Laweryson. Sands and Funderburk could/should also be recalled, but would come at the expense of Rojas and Morris, but the team needs arms after having to burn through so many last night. And unfortunately, probably Jeffers to the IL and recall Jackson.
  12. Looks like they will get Pena (SS) and Meyers (CF) back from the IL today, but will place Altuve on the IL. Hope they both take 3 or 4 games to find their groove...
  13. Unless the team DFA's a pitcher, the only relief pitchers with options are also the best options out of the BP right now....
  14. A move Rocco never would have made....
  15. Brewer's doing their Twins defense impersonation today...
  16. Now make them pay for dropping that pop-up...
  17. Remember when Lewis was good with the bases loaded....
