  1. I love when gameday tells me "Player X stays in the game as designated hitter."
  2. I think they take batting practice outside of the live games...with real, professional coaches.
  3. Scratch that. Larnach is DH, not OF today.
  4. Didn't see this move coming. So much for thinking we'd see Martin at 2B in a close game.
  5. Thanks to the contract (seriously) he's a reasonable flex option for the roster. They can call him up and DFA him over and over again with no claims... Worst case scenario is they lose him. Of course, I'd rather he pitched well.
  6. I heard the bats break easily. /rimshot
  7. dare I say it: the all star break is too long? (I also think they should play 9 months a year, haha.) let's get the second half underway!
  8. I think this site overhypes everyone not named Vasquez/Margot 😆 But I like what I'm reading today here and in some other threads. Sounds promising if he can play adequate OF.
  9. I'm open to trading Julien (or any player who seems to lack a long-term, non-utility position) if the return is right. This is not. I also question why the Twins would want to make Boston better if they're the top competition for the wild card right now. Broader question: what is worse? Trading in-division or with the teams in wild card contention? I'd definitely say the latter, with an exclusion for the division leader. Zero short-term harm in a trade with bottom dwellers.
  10. I read this whole article and I still don't know what happened with Castro at the ASG. Did he play? What position? When?
  11. It's weird to me that they only carried 1 LHP in most of the LOOGY era, but carry more now. Eh, that's baseball in 2024 as compared to 2012, I guess.
  12. The steroid user? If you're going to cite bloodlines, you have to mention the rest...
  13. I'll add the intangible that this team doesn't give up. Most games are close, including scoring 7 in the 9th the other week. If they can keep that spirit up their odds are good.
  14. Been wearing dad shoes for about 10 years here too. Feels so much better.
  15. The money isn't the point. That said, I'd hope he had insurance. In which case, the Vikings probably wouldn't pay his family. It's never simple.
  16. The many philosophies of the deadline are fascinating. Many are go big or go home. I'm a bit more of the "trade your pocket change for upgrades" personally.
