"Don't play him because he might get hurt and then he won't play. Have him sit out games so he doesn't have to sit out games." There's a logic flaw there somewhere. Can't put my finger on it, but I sense it.

I think it's fair to say recent Twins spending has been better, with 2023 completely ok. While acknowledging the Twins rather long history of spending NOT being OK, and in fact a definite factor in their inability to compete at the highest levels. This is a team that ran Jason Tyner out at DH and Randy Dobnak as a starter in a postseason game. I'd be fine with 2023 level relative spending...if it continues.

I concur position flexibility has become something of a necessity in the days of massive pitching staffs. However...I strongly disagree with the part about playing lesser players just to play them. Why play your lesser players when you don't have to? Play them when/if you need to, because the better player is unavailable. If the better player never becomes unavailable, great. No need for the lesser guy.

Try this: "Farmer sacrifices into double play, left to second." That's hilarious, and I'd like to take credit, but TBH I copied and pasted from game day.

No room for Hand, but room for this?

Winner.

Groovy, man. Like, far out.

Hai, dozo.

Spot on.

...the Twins will finish at the bottom of the ALC.

I doubt the shift ban has much effect on offense anywhere. Getting strikeouts down to something resembling historical levels would.

Au Contraire, mon fr...manfre... ...my friend. You should see the other guy's fist!

Did you learn to spell the name of the country while you lived there? Cee, eh? En, eh? Dee, eh?

Nonconcur. Non. Concur. Nonconcurnonconcurnonconcurnomconcur. Strongly. Sheesh.

Fantastic add to TD. Well done!
