    Ober’s HR problems continue

    That’s Twins baseball baby!
  3. Vanimal46
    Runners on 2nd and 3rd, zero outs. 0 runs scored. That actually is expected this year from the offense
  4. Vanimal46
    Only way this makes sense is if they target a more expensive WR for a trade with the freed up cap space. Immediate reaction is I don’t like this trade one bit.
  5. Vanimal46
    Trading a team captain away for scraps? What the hell?
  6. Vanimal46
    .592 OPS over his last 400 PA. I would hope someone is pushing for his playing time. He needs a reset badly.
  7. Vanimal46
    Lewis on the bench. He needs to get his mind right quickly.

    While that’s true, the traffic to get to and from both cities is awful. You’re not going to get a lot of commuters driving up from San Antonio for a Tuesday night game in Austin, or vice versa. I-35 is the main highway and that’s a parking lot 24 hours a day. One of the big reasons why I moved out of Austin…

    We got enough cap space to acquire Tyreek Hill. Go full 1998 on this season. JJ, Tyreek, Addison by week 4? Good luck, opposing defenses.

    If they’re seeking a city on the west coast for balance, Salt Lake City or Vancouver are much better options than Portland.

    10 years later, and we still don’t have a stadium solution for both the Rays and A’s. Expansion doesn’t make sense until the existing 30 teams are in good shape.
  12. Vanimal46
    Maybe we’ll get another #1 overall pick after this year to care about a draft class that much again. I was a fan of another left handed breathing SP Mackenzie Gore. So far taking either pitcher was a better option. Imagine if we sold high on Lewis when he was a consensus top 5 prospect in baseball… butterfly effect

    Bob has made some bad tweets in his day, including multiple spelling errors. But Boob is plugged in on the big important stuff. Trading Correa was a big deal during this trade deadline. Arguably the biggest known name traded away. If a GM specifically targeted LHP Matt Mikukski for Correa they should be fired immediately. 26 year old with currently a 12 ERA in high A ball.
  14. Vanimal46
    8-19 against left handed and breathing starting pitchers. 5 of those wins came during the 13 game win streak. The offense continues to make any left handed pitcher look like Mark Buerhle in his prime. Are we gonna continue letting Royce flail away in the majors? His plate appearances have been non-competitive for a long time now.
  15. Vanimal46
    Inconceivably, 5 of those 8 wins were during our 13 game win streak in May. 3 wins the rest of the season.
  16. Vanimal46
    8-19 against left handed breathing starting pitchers this year

    So many people treat prospect rankings like scripture and those rankings are wildly inaccurate every year. I’ve heard Trevor Plouffe say multiple times and I fully agree that the farm system is meant to supplement your major league team. Yet so many say we can’t possibly trade X prospect away, he’s ranked #20 on Baseball America!
  18. Vanimal46
    I pay almost 0 attention to the minors these days. I know some went down that path after the major sell off but I just have no interest in following the prospects anymore. If they’re MLB caliber players I’ll learn about them in due time
  19. Vanimal46
    There’s zero difference to each league today. And they basically play inter league games every day. So any mystique about separate leagues is long gone.
  20. Vanimal46
    Re: expansion. That’s been a topic for 10+ years. Even back in 2015 the discussion was the A’s and Rays need to figure out their stadium situation. Fast forward to 2025 and both teams still don’t have a solution to their stadium woes.
  21. Vanimal46
    Wins and losses don’t matter in the minors. All about development and process from Falvey’s famous pitching program
  22. Vanimal46
    The balanced schedule stinks so yes… Make divisional matchups great again!
  23. Vanimal46
    Give me the Cubs, White Sox, and Brewers in a realigned division. The irony is not lost on me that 2 teams in the eastern time zone are in the Central Division
  24. Vanimal46
    C Gangster should be spending time outside enjoying his summer vacation. He’s got school starting soon
  25. Vanimal46
    Looks like we’re witnessing the inevitable 2nd half decline from Joe
