    Miranda 0-4 with zero strikeouts, reached on a fielder's choice and scored. This looks like more weak contact, he has lost the zone.

    When the big club's got you down after a tough loss, it's always good to look to the future. With all the recent graduations and more coming this year, this list I looking a little thinner to me. That makes our sweet top five draft status and potential compensation picks all the more important . This front office has a prime opportunity for a huge reload.

    This thread has really rounded into a good discussion.

    I think the author thought the more important info was his age relative to his competition, which was clearly stated. A simple search would provide his birthdate.

    Got interrupted there, but I'd like to see the team go with the hot hand. They should make these adjustments quickly, on merit and without playing favorites. So yes I'd look for every opportunity to get the most impact at the plate from the catcher position.

    Vasquez has 82 plate appearances with 12 against leftys. Jeffers is at 36 and 22. So Jeffer's far superior OPS should be tempered slightly. Looking at their career numbers Jeffers has wider platoon splits and Vasquez, while hitting leftys better, is more neutral.

    Fields has more than a lot to prove. I'll believe it when I see it.

    I love joining in booing the opposing team. It is a way to rally around your team with other fans. The Yankees, the Dirty Sox, yeah baby fun times in the stands. Booing your own team? Now you are just that loud mouthed jerky guy in the stands. I'll admit sometimes it kinda funny, but not sure I want to be that guy.

    His interviews are about as dispassionate as you can get with short answers amounting to, ” I feel fine". Dan Hayes reported that last year the Twins wanted him to be more forthright about how he was feeling, to nip any small problem in the bud. Some of that is just the result of a new training staff that is trying to focus on better communication.

    I don't know if I'd call the Mahle trade a mistake, but as was posted above even though they were in first place, they weren't a contender. CES was the one who really caught my eye with his bat in the minors, so that hurts. Steer and Hajar were two I was watching as well. This does sting and Mahle not being forthcoming with his status hasn't helped.

    The defense was brutal. That was not coaching, that was piss poor execution.

    Paddack himself said he didn't expect to return this year. My guess would be if we see him at all it will be very late in the season or post-season and it will be in the pen.

    Knock on wood, the encouraging aspect of Ober's litany of injuries is that they haven't been arm or shoulder related. Hip, groin etc. If this guy stays healthy I see a really good starter who could keep improving.

    That might be his strategy to distract opponents in the box, yo.

    Mandela?

    Ober looks determined as hell.

    Ober looked great tonight. He thinks he belongs.

    Still a funny article. I'm not sure being fuzzy on the details of something involving Tom Cruise is a bad thing.

    When you swipe right on your podcast on Spotify to find "more like this" the result is "we couldn't find anything". Is this a major achievement?

    Not sure why people are saying the schedule gets tougher, that stretch with the Astros, Yanks, and both Sox was supposed to be the daunting part. They did leave a little meat on the bone against the Nationals and Marlins, but overall very good. Headrick has been a pleasant surprise and he may slot ahead of the 22 year old SWR as next man up in the rotation. Here's hoping Maeda is back if/when that is necessary. Mahle sure is a guarded dude, hard to know what we get out of him. Man Gray is intense. But man what an artist. This staff is so much more fun to watch than what I'm used to. For years rooting on the 6'6" 1st round pick Gibby to just throw the damn ball and how's about over the plate? Varland is the opposite, no pedigree and just gets after it. We now have 5 starters that I will tune in to watch.
