    Commentator: "Altuve is guessing this year." Everyone else: I wonder what is different about the 2020 Astros.
  2. Shaitan
    I don't think we'll see Odo in a mid-inning situation.
  3. Shaitan
    Does Grienke get paid by the hour?

    Yikes. Thankful that Arraez is back, but we're still dangerously close to the .180 hitting Adrianza getting an AB. Assuming this means Marwin is at 3B. I think a lot of these moves make sense. With Austudillo and Gonzalez on the bench, the team can PH for anyone and shift around positions. I assume they're saving Alcala for the next series and planning for a couple bullpen games between now and WS where they'll utilize roster moves accordingly (though they gotta win first to get there). I can't speak for what these rosters due to chemistry, but I wouldn't roster Avila 'til a longer series, but I doubt any of these moves are of the make-or-break variety.

    MLB programmers have also spared the rest of the country from having to watch many of those horrific games.

    I agree that money speaks a lot from MLB's perspective on this. But if the players' union made a push I could see it. (Especially as a trade for more postseason.) In the spirit of the original post, I was just answering my perfect length to a baseball season. I'll let the millionaires and their algorithms figure out how to make it work.

    10 teams is roughly 1/3 of the league. That's a pretty significant number.

    I love the length of the schedule, but it gets too cold for outdoor games in many climates. Cold weather and "minor league quality" September baseball are the biggest downsides, imo. Shave off 10-20 games. Eliminate or severely reduce September callups by restricting it to the last 2 weeks of the season.

    Wow, first Twins playoff game on broadcast TV in like a decade (or at least it feels that way). Of course, if they won more it would solve this problem as they advance.

    365 days. They get a day off every Leap Year.
  11. Shaitan
    I'm surprised how even everyone's usage has been.
  12. Shaitan
    Definitely interesting, but I wonder if his 2020 stats are reliable for who he is. He's been playing with an injured knee and if you can't set your weight right, your whole game is off.
  13. Shaitan
    Would have been really good if Gardy could have been managing these games in front of a packed Target Field.
  14. Shaitan
    May has been inconsistent all year his whole career. It's why he was moved to the bullpen. It's why he's more often a 6th-7th inning arm than 8th or 9th. He's a good pitcher, but he's often overrated on this website. He's not elite.
  15. Shaitan
    I like May's personality off the field, but I don't think I'll mind if they let him walk next year. So inconsistent.
  16. Shaitan
    IBB?
  17. Shaitan
    In normal years they'd drop 1-2 pitchers for pinch-hitters or defensive specialists. But without off days, I'd guess they go with more arms. Can they reset the roster each round of 2020 playoffs?
  18. Shaitan
    Totally depends on the situation. Too many variables to plan for something like this before Game 1.
  19. Shaitan
    Ha, Cousins is basically the new Mauer as far as criticism goes.
  20. Shaitan
    Is it weird that I want Buxton on the base paths instead of hitting HRs? Ha, I'll take whatever gets the win.
  21. Shaitan
    Personal umpires for teams is Manfred's next move.
  22. Shaitan
    Ronald Torreyes designated today. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2020/09/phillies-designate-ronald-torreyes-for-assignment.html
  23. Shaitan
    Since Seth mentioned it in the Blankenhorn post, does this mean families can attend the games too? I like the no off days rule. The rest...you gotta do what you gotta do in 2020. I definitely think the bubble is the safest way to do it.
  24. Shaitan
    Buxton is going to score every run in this game.
  25. Shaitan
    I didn't watch, but it's clear to me from this thread that the Twins would be a much better team if they got rid of Cruz, Berrios, and Rogers.
