    Yes.

    Wallner's HR is a HR in 29/30 parks, but xBA is only .250, but Buxton's HR is an HR in only 5/30 parks but has an xBA of .930!?!?!?

    Not starting against a RHP pretty much suggests that...

    The HP umpire wouldn't be very happy if the Twins didn't have a catcher...

    MLB has more than contributed to this mess with the blackout rules, I cannot make it to every home game because I live in the NW corner of the state, but cannot watch the games on MLB.TV. RSN's are not the answer for exactly what is going on here, they (Bally's) get greedy and set their price higher than the carriers (YouTube TV, Comcast, etc...) are willing to go. I don't know if MLB Network is the answer, they also priced themselves above what some carriers were willing to pay. Team owned sports networks aren't the answer for every team. Something permanent and beneficial for the fans needs to get figured out or baseball will probably die a slow death.

    How come the Twins can't seem to add MPH to Dobnak's FB? They manage to do so for everybody else. With how fast Berrios is falling, I don't know if Toronto wants another Twins pitcher.

    Was typing that when TD notified me that you quoted me... ;)

    My bad, transactions say it was today. Impending move ahead of Miranda or Lewis. Maybe Martin gets to stay a little longer, he looks better all around than Julien does.
  11. mnfireman
    Camargo was sent down already...
  12. mnfireman
    Roster additions coming up - Lewis, Miranda & Correa Roster subtractions coming up - Julien, Martin & Lee Julien and Martin sent ack down when Lewis and Miranda return, probably Friday. I think Lee will be up until Correa comes back because of his ability to play SS and he's also a switch hitter. I don't think there are roster spots for Farmer and Kirilloff unless there is another injury - use the IL for as long as necessary for both, then use Kirilloff's remaining option and let Farmer use the full 20 day rehab assignment.

    From Jeff Passan @ESPN: Minnesota Twins: Adding and subtracting. Money issues continue to hinder any shot at a big move, and it's why the Twins are an add-and-subtract team and not simply an add team like they ought to be. If the opportunity to acquire a higher-salary player presents itself, they would need to offload salary from their major league roster in that deal or another to cancel out the expense. With infielders Royce Lewis and Jose Miranda, plus reliever Brock Stewart, nearing returns from the injured list, the Twins' greatest deadline additions could come from within. And that's not even including shortstop Carlos Correa, who hit the IL last week after turning in his best first half since 2017.

    Not 15, but 12... https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5656272/2024/07/24/comcast-tv-deal-12-mlb-teams/

    Was going to copy the link to MLBTR concerning this also. And on a subject different than the payout but as a possible baseball fix for some - I know a lot of TD posters don't want to pay for another streaming option, but it's now out there. https://www.mlb.com/news/mlb-network-launches-direct-to-consumer-streaming-option

    Don't open this bag of worms again, some people have very strong opinions about some of baseball's "unwritten" rules...
  17. mnfireman
    Because the "advanced metrics" guys believe all outs are created equal...
  18. mnfireman
    A 66.7 MPH grounder up the middle with an xBA of .060 against a drawn in infield is not too inspiring....but I do hope he stays hot and helps lead the team to the playoffs (he had a nice series; 5-11 3 runs and 3 RBI).
  19. mnfireman
    Can't tell me all outs are equal. Yes it may have been a bad call that sat Wallner down, but a fly ball instead of the K would have given the team the lead...
  20. mnfireman
    Not so much, another called strike 3....
  21. mnfireman
    Nice recovery inning by Festa, now at 49 pitches through basically 3 innings, might get 2 more out of him.
  22. mnfireman
    Dodged a bullet there, can't walk the bases loaded and expect to get Schwarber and Turner to strike out every time. Pitch count getting high, may end up looking like a BP game after all.
  23. mnfireman
    That aged well.... Good job Mr. Festa (tips hat)
  24. mnfireman
    His Uber was late?? You'll have to ask Rocco that question. But you know he's coming in to start a clean inning, not in the middle of someone's mess.
  25. mnfireman
    He's going to have to face them at least once. Besides that, the Phillies line-up is pretty lethal top to bottom and alternate handedness all the way through the line-up. At least there's no Realmuto, at least to start the game.
