There’s a reason it is known as the Eastern Seaboard Prejudice Network.

IMO that the second best infield defense and the 5th worst had a difference of 13 runs over 162 games kinda tells me that unless your guys are absolute butchers, infield defense is fairly unimportant.

Who Will Provide Length in the Twins' Bullpen?
yarnivek1972 replied to Cody Pirkl's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
Other than the first couple times through the rotation, how big of an issue is length going to be with a ten or eleven man bullpen? -

Even if having Rosario in the lineup means they don’t upgrade the starting rotation? Keep in mind, Odorizzi is UFA. Where do you think they have a better chance to fill in a hole? Corner outfield or at the top of the rotation?
-
People advocating for the retention of Rosario seem to be forgetting these are still the Minnesota Twins. Money is, and likely will always be, a factor in every roster decision. So, if Rosario is with the Twins next year, that’s about $12 to $15 mil the team can’t spend elsewhere. Like on an elite level starting pitcher for example.

Miguel Sanó Tests Positive for COVID-19
yarnivek1972 replied to Tom Froemming's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
I thought the quarrantine time after a positive test was two weeks. That’s still a few days away. And he has to test negative twice I believe. -
So, has there been any hint as to when he will be back on the field?
-
He doesn’t hit enough to justify playing a corner spot. We’re still talking about a guy with a career OPS + of 87 in 1300 plus MLB PA. His only value is in playing plus plus defense in CF.

I guess I don’t know exactly how the AFL works but I would hope that teams sending guys there would have substantial input as to how they are used. They are there to learn, after all. What’s the point of teaching them the wrong things?
-
I love all this “Rosario is a team leader” stuff. I didn’t realize we had so many people posting to this forum who were members of the team. After all, the players are the only people who know who their leaders are. Fans don’t.

There has to be some reason why Lewis only played one game at SS in the AFL last year. He played 5 in CF and a dozen or so at 3b.

You said outfield not centerfield.

Marwin Gonzalez?

Rosario is more likely to be non-tendered than traded. As you mention, he provides marginal offense and subpar defense at a premium price. Those are the kind of players being squeezed out of the league.
