Oh please. Correa is super competitive and would not fake being hurt. If he goes back to his old self that's a major indictment of the Twins coaching staff, scouting, and FO, which FYI, are horrible according to the MLB players I know
I live in their market, I'm going to watch the team closest to me that actually ****ing tries to win. Falvey and the Pohlads are an embarrassment to the league and don't deserve any more fandom
Yes, they were in first place last year at this date. Far from 7 games out of first place. This team is laughably bad - easily one of the five worst teams in the majors - even worse than the Oakland Athletics. Falvey should be fired ASAP.
His spin direction has improved dramatically, I think his results are unsurprising given the improvement of his peripheral data. First is 2024, second 2023.
I think Griffin Jax has a better chance of starting than either of those two. Duran would take months to build up as a starter coming back from injury. Stewart's current pitch mix isn't good enough to start IMO.
And even worse, it's not just the Twins. Payroll around baseball is down and star players keep getting injured. Yelich left the Brewers game tonight with an apparent serious injury as well.
