  1. I'd ask who Whitefield is, but I bet a separate bio post is coming thanks to the many great contributors here. Still gotta get used to this phrase.
  2. I love that the biggest debate is about last year's #9 hitter.
  3. Rosario's energy is really important to this team. I was going to question Cruz at #5 because he didn't play a single inning of defense last year. But with the 2020 DH rules, that's a huge boost. One of my favorite thing about this team is that it's so even. There's not one obvious star.
  4. Hopefully shoring up the infield defense with Donaldson helps too.
  5. I'm not so sure about Wisler. But who knows with all the unusual things this year from roster size to "Summer Camp."
  6. I know there aren't many Twins uniform pics to choose from, but this is an odd one.
  7. I get the joke but this seems...highly offensive.
  8. Unless something drastic changes from his 2019 performance, I give non-tendering between a 0-5% chance.
  9. "Eddie Rosario and the Twins have been growing apart for a bit" Do you have a source for this opening statement? Starting with "It seems like" would clarify that it's a perception, but not necessarily a fact.
  10. I'm really curious how teams will use the bench in the short season. You'd think on the surface that backup catchers and 10th men like Marwin would lose the most AB, but with so few off days I suspect it will mirror a 162-game season. And then there are things like heat waves that might affect it too. Or maybe that's just on my mind because I haven't set foot outside lately.
  11. It's nice to have baseball articles again.
  12. I'm sure there's a thread elsewhere, but yes. The whole league is bunkered into (I think) 3 cities. STP & SF sharing a stadium. Winnipeg and Fargo sharing then some others.
  13. And social distancing. More players on the roster means less physical space in the field, dugout, clubhouse etc.
  14. People in marketing have a certain way of talking.
  15. Thought I saw 1.2% of players, coaches and staff tested were positive somewhere. (MLBTR, maybe)
  16. I'm curious how the waiver wire will look this year. There's been a lot of chatter about it in recent years. This could be a test drive of something new.
  17. Did Thielbar ever play at CHS or was he a Saint in the Midway days?
  18. I don't think Pineda is getting "screwed." It's unfortunate that he'll basically miss the whole season, but that's the cost of taking banned substances. If anything, he's lucky he gets to play at all. His original suspension was longer.
  19. I could have sworn I saw that Thielbar retired a couple weeks ago but I can't find a source. Did a different "twins reunion" LOOGY miLB signing retire?
  20. Not about Sabato, but it seems like the last draftee to sign a contract has a negotiating advantage in that it's public exactly how much money is left.
  21. Feels like 1994 in a way. Nobody is going to win this. Hopefully it somehow makes the next CBA go more smoothly since it was a "pre-negotiation" of sorts. If they hit another standstill...it won't be good.
  22. I love that Jeffers was his catcher. Good story, people-wise and baseball-wise.
  23. Joe and Tanner Vavra too. The the Twins were rumored to have discussed Steve Lombardozzi Jr in a trade some years back...
