    You dug until you found one made up stat that says your guy is better than the next handful of guys. GOOOD for you.
  2. dxpavelka
    What I don't care about is the made up s@!#. The stuff that I can see with my own eyes is important and I've quoted it.
  3. dxpavelka
    Bold is kind of my thing but I like guys that hit home runs score runs and drive runs in. To be totally honest I don't give a s$@! about wRC+ and whatever comeback you're gonna come up with ain't gonna sway me so save your keystrokes.

    Argue. Why argue? Your statement is a slam dunk. If you take out Hiem, Rutschman, Jansen, Raleigh & Rogers. Or limit the discussion to guys who might be starting to wear down based on being scratched from their last start due to back tightness. Oh. WAIT. You're gonna use batting average as your criteria. Which I don't really have an issue with. Of course I get called a dinosaur when I use that stat. NOW GET OFF MY LAWN.

    Not a single one of the 10 catchers who played over a hundred games had an OPS of .800 Three of the ten who played between 87 and 99 did and one of them was over .900
  6. dxpavelka
    Or maybe Jeffers isn't a great hitting catcher.
  7. dxpavelka
    You are correct that the debate may have been about the fatigue of doing it thru 162 games. 162 games which are meaningless without said Playoffs.
  8. dxpavelka
    Isn't that the point?
  9. dxpavelka
    So you named 5 and only had to go back 14 years. Only left about a hundred and fifty (or more) guys out.
  10. dxpavelka
    Sorry. I have a life.
  11. dxpavelka
    You named two. And had to go back almost two decades.
  12. dxpavelka
    Luckily there has never been anything "publicly reported" that has ever been anything other than 100% spot on truthful. The reason teams seldom choose to play catchers more than 100 games is because any advantage, such as the one you say Jeffers gives them, tends to diminish as they reach and / or pass that 100 game mark.
  13. dxpavelka
    Pretty sure Vasquez was signed to split time with Jeffers at C. Few teams want a C to play more than a hundred games and fewer still have a C who should do so. Jeffers falls in that category.
  14. dxpavelka
    Gehrig, Hornsby, Schjmidt, Wagner.
  15. dxpavelka
    NO
  16. dxpavelka
    Kirlloff's current (and frequent) designation plays a huge factor.
  17. dxpavelka
    "First base is essentially the only position for the Twins that is not comfortably set:" Meanwhile, Sano eats Twinkies in the Dominican.
  18. dxpavelka
    We dumped Sano for this???
  19. dxpavelka
    Cut him and put pursuit of strikeout records in jeopardy? PREPOSTEROUS.
  20. dxpavelka
    Seems like more of a move that you make after handing him a 1B glove in November and telling him he'll be a 1B in March, figure it out. Worth remembering that the last guy who got moved from 2B to 1B cuz he could hit but not play defense got traded not long thereafter. P.S. 180 MILB innings is NOT a lot.
  21. dxpavelka
    Every single guy on the first list has "contributed" more than the guys on the second list. That's the whole point.
  22. dxpavelka
    The best thing about this team is also the one that likely prompted said deadline inactivity. HOPE on the farm. Just look at the list of guys who have contributed this year that were NOT on the opening day roster: Julien, Larnach, Wallner, Ober, Varland, Stewart, Balazovic, Headrick, DeLeon, Ortega, Kuechel. Then think about guys getting turned to in years past: Riddle, Shoemaker, Ildemaro Vargas, Littell, LaMarre, Mejia, Bobby Wilson, Matt Belisle, Chris Giminez, Nik Turley. HOPE.
  23. dxpavelka
    Still want to know if there has ever been an un drafted college grad make it to the big leagues quicker than Dobnak?
  24. dxpavelka
    MAYBE 2024 is the year SWR brings a return on the Berrios deal. OR maybe we move ANOTHER asset to replace Berrios again....
  25. dxpavelka
    And Waller's BA isn't measured with the same gun used to measure Jordan's Addison's speed........
