    I hope they don't call him up. What about those AAAA players on the fringe of the 40-roster. They're probably all the next David Ortiz or Liam Hendriks. /s

    Exactly. Players seem to perform better when they earn a position vs being handed it. Not unlike most things in life.

    Look up what the Twins gave up to acquire Farmer. They aren't much in return. Good teams have starter quality backups. Farmer is a perfect fit for this team right now and the Twins can always reevaluate at the trade deadline.

    I understand the value of multimedia, but please identify the medium in the headline, at minimum. Personally, I'm never going to watch these. I prefer to keep the sound off while using devices and I don't find watching people talking to their phones to be interesting.

    Stadium radar guns are a marketing tool, not a coaching tool, correct? I'd love to see an independent study on that. Though I'm sure MLB wouldn't allow it.

    Okay, I may be a convert if I don't have to listen to Bert.

    I misread this as a different D Santana and had a mild heart attack.

    Balazovic is definitely make or break. The others are lower in the system yet. I really don't care about #s below AA. Sure, good numbers are good but... sometimes it takes a while to figure it out. And a lot of 1st round picks have never struggled before pro ball, so it's a mental battle too. The odds are stacked against all 3 for sure. Hopefully they learn from their mistakes and progress.

    No such thing as too many good players. Y'all worry too much.

    Apologies if this already exists and I missed it, but I enjoy this ongoing log each year. I'll start it: Ben Rortvedt out for at least a month. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2023/02/frankie-montas-ben-rortvedt-yankees-shoulder-surgery.html

    I'm surprised there are so few names over 10 years, honestly. I think that highlights a lot of recent discussion here: just how long a player is considered a prospect.

    Arbitration is known for this. He either didn't listen to his agent or has a bad one. If he's so offended by this, what will set him off next time? I wouldn't waste the resources.

    A jock who is quick to resort to violence. Some things never change. Just kidding. I know nothing about what happened. And I likely never will. But the end result is bad news for all parties. Glad it's just a jaw. Hopefully it's live-and-learn.

    Last year honestly was more than I expected. I don't count August/September since those were all 4th stringers after an insane streak of injuries. The story to me is the improvements on defense. Taylor, Gallo, Farmer, Vasquez. There's a pattern and it's not just depth. The question: Have they moved on from losing their pitching coach? (And can they get a few situational hits?)

    In the long run, I doubt it interrupts Twins broadcasts. More likely: bankruptcy court pushes for a reorg buying Bally a couple of years to sink or swim. Or the Twins pull out of the deal and find a new home (hopefully).
