    I've read a number of times through the past years about speed gun inaccuracies.. how is this not a solved problem? It's all of a few hundred bucks.. you'd think a major league affiliate would stamp this out immediately.

    It's in the SI link in the original article - https://www.si.com/mlb/2017/04/24/hunter-greene-mlb-draft

    I read somewhere that the off days of a starting pitcher are a big deal for recovery and that it's not necessarily a good idea for a starting pitcher to play in the field the off days. Does anyone know the specifics on this? LIke what the pitcher does on the off days, when he ices, etc.

    I suppose one could argue that first one was fair, but what about the $22MM extension? Doing a little research: http://www.cbssports.com/mlb/eye-on-baseball/24485200/glen-perkins-hometown-discount-with-twins-was-his-suggestion http://www.si.com/mlb/strike-zone/2014/03/17/glen-perkins-extension-minnesota-twins http://m.mlb.com/news/article/69324232/minnesota-twins-sign-closer-glen-perkins-to-extension-through-2017 http://twinsdaily.com/_/minnesota-twins-news/minnesota-twins/ten-to-extend-a-five-part-series-part-2-r4468 http://twinsdaily.com/articles.html/_/minnesota-twins-news/minnesota-twins/glen-perkins-signs-extension-with-twins-r2404 http://twinsdaily.com/articles.html/_/minnesota-twins-news/spring-training-2015/glen-perkins-looking-to-move-on-r3507

    Over the last few weeks I've seen a lot of references to trading Perkins at peak value. I assume he took the hometown discount to stay home. If a GM trades away someone who took the hometown discount, that GM (or team) will probably never get the hometown discount again. I don't hold Ryan accountable for not trading Perkins - I think it's clearly the right thing to hang onto him unless Perkins was ok with it.

    Thanks for the info. I'm very interested in hearing about how he's responding to off-speed stuff - is he laying off, and is he starting to make good contact. I found http://m.milb.com/2016_05_04_rocaaa_syraaa_1#/js/2016_05_04_rocaaa_syraaa_1/plays/ but that doesn't have the count information - where are you finding yours? What I really want is stuff like http://twinsdaily.com/topic/22301-article-twins-minor-league-report-52-wheeler-deals-in-complete-game-loss/?do=findComment&comment=474029 but I get it if only people seeing the game can report it.

    Anyone have any detailed information about Buxton's at bats? I'm probably going to be a broken record in these Minor League Reports asking about them
  8. bizaff
    Any idea if Buxton's hits were on fastballs or breaking balls? Anyone know if/where you can find video?

    I thought I heard on the TV broadcast last night that Phil Hughes's next start would be pushed back.

    Cause anytime I hear Mauer catcher suggestions, I hear that song in my head.. I figured I'd inflict that on everyone else
  11. bizaff
    Joe is never ever ever going back to catcher Mauer is never ever ever going back to catcher You go talk to Ryan talk to Molly talk to me But Mauer is never ever ever ever going back to catcher

    I don't understand the argument against it, but I want to. When you say important strategic and fundamental aspects, are you referring how the pitcher and hitter have to adjust to what a human umpire is calling for balls and strikes? Is it just that simple or am I leaving out part of the argument against robot-umpires?
