If an injured player is not going to play in the ASG they no longer go to it.

You can't spell Twins without WIN!

We've had some discussions here about roster limitations, and the MLBPA has proposed a bunch of ideas and I think they all make sense. This is from their official release: MLBPA Makes Transaction Proposals to Benefit All Players and Build Upon Industry Momentum NEW YORK, July 1 -- The Major League Baseball Players Association (MLBPA) today made a series of proposals under the umbrella of transactions, rosters and access to data as part of the ongoing collective bargaining negotiations with Major League Baseball. The current Collective Bargaining Agreement expires in December. Today’s proposals are designed to improve the game, protect players’ health and safety, strengthen the free market and provide meaningful support to our full fraternity. Among the key components proposed by the MLBPA: · Expanding MLB active rosters from 26 to 28 (14 pitcher maximum) for the first 15 days of the championship season-designed to protect players health and safety in the lead up to and just after Opening Day, and provide additional Major League job opportunities for players coming out of Spring Training · Allow for placement of players on the 60-day IL as early as the November Tender Deadline- designed to open additional 40-man roster spots for Clubs to utilize in their offseason particularly to replace players with known and lengthier injury recovery timelines · Reduce the number of permissible in-season optional assignment per player from five to three-designed to combat roster churn and promote full-time jobs at the MLB level throughout the year · Accelerate eligibility for the Rule 5 Draft and ensure a Rule 5 Draft will be held in 2026 and each year of the next CBA · Provide MLB service time and salary protections for all players in September, and for pitchers who are optioned to the Minors over the All-Star break and/or immediately after a game where they met certain performance thresholds-designed to reduce roster manipulation and protect players (often middle relievers and spot sstarters) who are optioned but expected to 'stay hot' · Enable all players to access Club-collected non-proprietary performance data and video-designed to increase transparency and allow players to track their work with the same information management is using ### Contact: Silvia Alvarez, MLBPA, 646-285-1819

That trade was a bunch of Hoey.

He's Outman 2.0. Absolute waste of a roster pot as we don't need a PR/DEF replacement. We need guys getting AB to see if they're part of the future.

Randy Dobnak called up by KC.

Yes they want to stretch him out. They made a mistake not doing it before activating him off the IL.

Well he is expected to be out for months so that is guaranteed.

SWR cleared waivers and was outrighted to AAA by TOR. Chris Paddack DFA'd by TEX.

Sandy Alomar, Jr was voted in one year with 17 games played.

I tried to make it obvious at the end. 😁

They don't have a set closer.

You have Gomez on and a runner gets on you bring him in. Which is exactly what happened and it worked out.

Looks like that post went right over your head bud!

Well the Twins were able to deal Ty France and Carlos Santana at the deadline the last 2 years so anything is possible.

Morneau said at the time that's what Shelton was doing so makes sense. I don't think it was the wrong call. They would have went LHB-LHB to start the inning if Gomez was in.

TWINNERS!

Yes. He twitched and called for the trainer right away.

And he probably blew out his elbow.

Maybe they can get Chapman from BOS. Or Weaver from the Mets. How about Kirby Yates from the Angels. There's Senzatela from COL. They could just swap them now. The other team might have to send cash or a top 20 prospect.

Will Shelty actually use Gomez today? Third day in a row he's warmed up.

Gomez was up and ready again tonight and he let Fundy break. Unlike Raleigh he hasn't fallen completely apart.

I humbly admit you have this right.

He's already lowered it to 60.00. Err 27.00.

Walks will haunt.. Fitting right in...
