    As Michael Scott used to say, "You miss 100% of the shots you don't take - Wayne Gretzky"

    The late afternoon players took advantage for sure. Spieth looks phenomenal. I'm shocked the guy who dislocated his ankle is not only playing the next day, but in the mix!

    5 shots in the water. I've never felt so close to a professional golfer before!

    The glass half full thoughts on Santana in ST are fading. Come on Romero, blow away the competition in AAA and be the 5th starter we need.

    Copied from the National Writers on Twins prospects thread... Dane26 1:45 Does Akil Baddoo have the tools to be an above-average regular? Keith Law 1:45 Absolutely.

    Technically they're not saying it so they can stay on the premises!

    Team options are definitely a thing. That's why Chris Sale and Madison Bumgarner are underpaid for their production. Those 2 signed their contracts 1-2 years after making their MLB debuts. So not sure if an established player like Dozier can be talked into it.
  9. Vanimal46
    I've said this in multiple Dozier contract threads. I want him back. His production will be hard to replace from the internal options. He's a fan favorite and the vocal club house leader. There are several 2B still producing in their mid-30s. I'd go 4 years without hesitation. 5 years I'd wince but still do it. 6+ years is where I walk away.

    Rosario's taking the day off in the OF. Grossman takes LoMo's spot at DH

    Warning: Dude dislocates his ankle celebrating a hole in one yesterday. Then pops it back in place. Ouch!!

    What happened to the bullpen cart idea?

    If there's any consolation I can practice my jump shot during training sessions!

    The assignments were strange to me because Gonsalves finished last season in AAA, and Gordon so far begins a new season one level higher than the previous season. So they both have hit a speed bump in their development cycle. Let's hope it's just a temporary bump.

    I'm starting a new job at a new company on Monday. The office is located at the Dell headquarters, but we're moving locations in 2 weeks. For the time being, the company is set up in Michael Dell's private basketball court on the 3rd floor of the building. Basically the company I'm going to be working for is the Milton of Dell.

    On the flip side, isn't it good for the country that we quarantined him in Las Vegas so he's no longer touring throughout the US?

    The Milwaukee Brewers were down to their final strike, until they STRIKED back with back-to-back HRs on 2 pitches.

    Happy Master's day! This is my favorite golf major to watch every year. You could make the argument for ~10 golfers that could win it this year. Of course the biggest story is Tiger Woods looking like vintage Tiger. Since making his comeback, very few have chipped and putted the ball better than him.

    A desk by a window? Must be nice!

    Your gif reminded me of a recent debate between my friend group... What is the better TV show: Seinfeld or Friends?

    There's gold in them thar hills of Nashville! Who wouldn't want their minor league team in one of the best cities to live in the US?

    And really, that's the beauty of everything we've been discussing on this thread. Analytics aren't going away, and teams will continue to mine thousands of batted balls to determine where you're most likely going to hit the ball in play. This is just the next move players can do to rebut the data.

    Here's data from last season in a Joe Posnanski article on MLB.com
