  1. He didn't dominate AA. First half in AA would be my choice then move him up. It was a rush job to have him start his pro career in AA in the first place.
  2. Not to mention Gibby's first season in Texas was a train wreck. He may finally have nibbled his way to some success!
  3. Why do we not see Larnach's foot injury even mentioned? Just watching Polanco's career should impart the necessity of having a good set of wheels under you. I wouldn't be surprised to see Larnach break camp with the team. Cave we hardly knew ya?
  4. I agree with all this. Larnach's struggles have given Rooker another shot and I think that is ok. He has the righty bat that is needed and while many doubt his future many will react if he produces elsewhere. The Twins have a fair amount invested here
  5. Direct Stream just informed me my one year promotional rate is over. As a now loyal customer, I will get rewarded with higher pricing! Standard corporate customer appreciation strategy. Profitable and reviled huzzah huzzah!
  6. Apparently Gray asked for a different catcher.
  7. I believe that's concurn't.
  8. Did I stumble into some weird parallel universe?
  9. If SWR gets traded again his agent better insist on payment for therapy services.
  10. I get what you are saying about losing Garver, but hanging on to Donaldson? His predicted production last year was much higher than an actual production leaving some to call him unlucky. He was not unlucky, he can't run. Good move getting out of those last 2 years. I would take Urshela and Miranda the next 2 years over Donaldson in a heartbeat.
  11. Every silver lining has a cloud, sometimes apparently a dark dark cloud. Give it a rest bro.
  12. With Pineda signing and this deal, no doubt they get a frontline starter and ease much hand wringing and teeth gnashing. Again hilarious, I can't wait to watch Falvey's presser!
  13. The weird thing not mentioned is when the season started in 2020 Thorpe was hitting 94, as in the above video clip, and it appeared we might have something. Then the velo dropped, he said he had a dead arm, then was shut down. Maybe Wes got him growing harder, but his body couldn't take it. The mystery of Lewis Thorpe may be solved this year.
  14. Berrios said he really liked Toronto and it's diversity. Toronto is one of the most diverse cities in North America. A family from Puerto Rico might not feel at home in a city like Minneapolis. Could be something as personal as that. And, yes, we don't know.
  15. Some of the biggest punchers in boxing have skinny arms. Being muscle bound doesn't necessarily translate to explosive power.
  16. The convoluted nature of the last day illustrates how averse the FO is to big contacts for pitchers. Maeda and Gray both have very team friendly deals. They don't appear as averse to large deals for position players such as Donaldson. It follows then that they will add Story and trade for a pitcher who has a uniquely team friendly deal. Now if someone figures out who that pitcher is you could save us all much suspense.
  17. When I admire people with advanced degrees it would be the type that would take far less pay than the private sector would offer building schools and clinics for USAID. Admiring greedy billionaire business people is just licking the boot.
  18. Sorry at this point I'm not reading the article. I got some email request about my MLB subscriptions, maybe we all should just cancel what we have pending. Might send a message, meanwhile I am happily occupied with other endeavors.
  19. Agree with everything here except not only will stuff happen before the season starts, I'll bet the deals are already in place and will happen immediately when it is allowed.
  20. Anybody worried about how the ACL will effect Lewis' speed/athleticism needs to watch a highlight of Dalvin Cook or AP pulling away from defenders. Not going to be an issue. The issue with Lewis, besides besides his annoying propensity to refer to himself in the 3rd person, is his leg kick. That would be why you would rank Martin ahead of him. Lewis' leg kick was as flamboyant as his personality. He has much to prove at the plate.
  21. Oh if that's the case well then hells yeah. Canterino looks to be averaging over 6 innings per so that could be many many pitches
