  1. Based on NL records, it looks like only four teams passed on him, two of which, Pittsburgh and Miami, wouldn't spend a dime unless forced to. I'd guess San Diego would have been interested if they weren't already struggling to find innings for seven starters under the age of 27. Colorado? Yeah, they're always in need of pitching, they should have had some interest, though they're probably up against their budget considering they are a non-contender and have some big contracts on the books. Maybe they don't care for his repertoire though. He's not a strong groundball pitcher and he gave up the slider this year.
  2. Yeah, every batter who played for the Twins last year has reduced his strikeouts this season. Maybe it wouldn't have made a difference, but Sano may have benefited from spring training when whatever change struck the organization occurred.
  3. Buddies probably not. Catchers and pitchers tend to be quite sensitive when it comes to optics though, so I'll cheer for a rift to grow there. At least for the next two games. Eh, make it all year. I don't much care for Atlanta.
  4. Yeah, I wonder how that played in his own clubhouse. I'm hoping for Not Well.
  5. Yeah, in past years I'd agree with not bringing up a top prospect to ride pine, but no one does that. Every hitter on the active roster has over 100 PA and Adrianza has played in 62 games. If say Rooker was the call (once healthy), there would be ABs for him as the 4th OF and back up 1B.
  6. I hope that’s one of those deflating loses that wrecks moral for a week. And since the Atlanta is only here for half of a week, I hope they leave what’s left all over the visiting team’s clubhouse.
  7. Yeah, if the Twins don’t get to be happy about their new reliever, nobody gets to!
  8. So Tony Sipp or Brad Brach? The team could use another lefty, but I dislike LOOGYs.
  9. May needed that for himself as much as the team needed it.
  10. I’m not sure why players on their physical decline get run out of the league while umpires get the Supreme Court Justice treatment.
  11. Looked like Diaz recanted to Kepler’s presumptive popping out of his stance, not the pitch.
  12. If Adrianza is going to keep getting AB’s at first, I vote Rooker.
  13. The bullpen or the board’s reaction every time the other team scores a run?
  14. Me? That one still had more break than mine would have.
  15. Duffey feels like the wrong move here. But to be fair ANY move feels like the wrong move here.
  16. I presume not many NL players will be getting AL MVP votes, so he’s top 10. And good luck to Moncada getting votes on a losing team or any Red Sox getting votes on an underachieving team.
  17. I just noticed Kepler’s BABiP was .254 heading into the game. What if that evened out?
  18. If Kepler isn’t an MVP candidate, that means there’s only one candidate.
  19. I think I would have rested Rogers extra for Atlanta and Cleveland. Seven games next week.
  20. I preferred Roenis Elias to Dyson, looks like the Nats IL’d him today too. Daniel Hudson and Joe Biagini better watch out.
  21. Make sure to go for the belly.
  22. But nobody east of the river listens to it.
  23. I like that KC has let Duffey work through his adversity this whole time. But that’s mostly because I like when the Twins score runs.
