    You'd think this team was in 3rd place sometimes and playing .500 ball sometimes.
  2. Shaitan
    Bullpen games are the reality of a 28-man roster.
  3. Shaitan
    When he's drawing walks, he's also hitting.

    I wonder how the first game jitters feel when there is nobody in the stands. I imagine it's easier than a full stadium. Maybe not, but definitely different. Glad to see what he can do, though under unfortunate circumstances.

    There goes my excitement for a classic doubleheader (instead of the split). Either way, I'm happy to have baseball.
  7. Shaitan
    Yup. This is a good sign, but we'll see how he does when nobody throws him a hittable first pitch. As others said, it's a game of adjustments. He made an adjustment to start going after the first pitch, opponents will make the next move.

    It's just so silly. Some people actually spend their time commenting on a message board about a sports logo. Suggesting a subtle change that nobody thinks is offensive. These people need a hobby.
  9. Shaitan
    He's a streaky player (or has been battling nagging, unreported injuries often). I'd love to see his walk rate during his hot streaks of the past few years and how it compares to today.
  10. Shaitan
    The charm of Minnie and Paul is, honestly, that it's a dated art style. So I suppose it's due for a tweak. Big meh. It's like their 3rd logo anyway. Changing Minnie and Paul is about as controversial as Geico adding another spokesman.

    I don't read much into this. A player they think is useful was available. Maybe he'll hold a backup utility position, maybe not. Probably the next Ronald Torres, so to speak.

    After missing his first start (because Marlins), Kohl Stewart opts out of 2020 season. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2020/07/kohl-stewart-opts-out-of-2020-season.html

    Even if individuals aren't watching back-to-back games, I think there's a market. I mostly only follow the Twins. But when I'm in a bar or restaurant before evening, I'd rather watch any live game than yesterday's FSN rerun or muted Sportscenter. The Cubs and Braves made lifelong national fans by airing games during the day in the '80s-90s.
  14. Shaitan
    It's nice to be 10-2, where these are the things people are complaining about.
  15. Shaitan
    "Before you hit me with “It’s only been ten games,” just remember that is nearly 20% of the season. There isn't really such thing as a small sample size in this strange season." That's not how statistics work.
  16. Shaitan
    Sorry, but Dobnak only had 1K and doesn't throw 99mph. Clearly he's not MLB material. \sarcasm
  17. Shaitan
    I'm still hopeful that he'll surpass Jaime Garcia's Twins stat line.
  18. Shaitan
    That reminds me: how is Ryne Harper doing this year?
  19. Shaitan
    Only a day after his quote about his shoulder feeling "18 years old."
  20. Shaitan
    Looks like Seth beat me to it, but yes. In modern MLB I suspect they could find a way to have a 50-man roster and still be short on bullpen arms.
  21. Shaitan
    Actually.... https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2020/08/braves-designate-jhoulys-chacin-select-chris-rusins-contract.html
  22. Shaitan
    Even with a 30-man roster this is the approach (as shown by putting both Bailey and Littel on the IL for "minor" injuries). Sigh. Modern baseball: where 15 pitchers still isn't enough.
  23. Shaitan
    "the Twins also received a gem on Saturday from No. 18 in their rotation." This team really has pitching depth if they have 17 pitchers ahead of Maeda.
  24. Shaitan
    Adrianza and Donaldson are tied for extra base hits in 2020 at the end of July.
  25. Shaitan
    With 30-man rosters + modern baseball? Ha! Impossible.
