Great to have baseball again. Is it just me or do some of the Twins such as Berrios, Polanco, Arraez, look like their bodies are filling out ( in a good way)?
Unless somehow there is a problem with the broadcasts on FM, I am glad to have that as an option too. I don't understand the purpose of this article, Must be my advanced age.
Hard to think of someone making $7 million or so a year as underpaid. The Twins took a gamble and Max opted for a very secure life changing contract. No one is getting screwed here.
Great article. It makes you wonder about the TK regime. I respect his baseball knowledge but you have to wonder how many hitters, besides David Ortiz, that his approach may have negatively impacted.
Excellent article. I was not aware of Smeltzer's great spin rate. It appears to me that unless he at least tries to make some adjustments in his delivery his career will mimic that ot Tommy Milone's. Not horrible, but....
He may be the main first baseman for only a year or two given that Cruz may not be back next year. He might then be the DH and one of our prospects could be the new first baseman.
Great article. Maybe with Josie's different training regimen this year and with another year working with Wes Johnson, that the decline can be stopped and perhaps reversed. I have felt for some time that Jose's windup is too complex and that he should simplify it. But that is just my observation.
If Maeda pitches well as a starter, but if the Twins find near the end of the season that they need him as a reliever, the FO should restructure his incentives so that he is not penalized for helping the team win.
