  1. Did that base hit from Simmons double his OPS?
  2. Seems like good news to me.
  3. Just browsing minor league leaders on Fangraphs, looking at BB/K and BB% for ARL guys and came across this freak: Emmanuel Rodriguez (MIN) 19 yo OF in A ball. Came into the season as the 25th ranked prospect in the Twins org. 199 PAs. 28.6% BB (!!!) 26.1% K .272/.492/.551 That walk rate is unbelievable. And he's 19. The twins are in 1st and could use a catcher....
  4. Simmons OPS is .347 I don't even know what to say about that
  5. You've got to love the team that was created to fix the RISP problem setting the franchise record for RISP futility.
  6. Some sort of injury. Appeared to be his shoulder.
  7. OBP Frazier .356 Simmons .196 and that's Simmons' best stat
  8. They can't keep playing him
  9. Best news of the season. He's going to be a good one.
  10. Cubs have hit rockets everywhere and have one run. Can't win the division that way.
  11. It's funny, these situations where infield defense is critical are the ones I most miss the old team. Having Rizzo and Baez on the infield, I always felt pretty good about them. And, yep.
  12. Thought I'd have to wait until July or September to see Velazquez. I've been a big fan for a while and this is easily the most exciting news of the season so far. Hope Kilian isn't far behind.
  13. Not sure Stroman has another inning in him. Giving up hard contact there in the 7th.
  14. Hopefully they can have an inning here in the 6th.
  15. NL OF by wOBA 1. Betts 2. Nimmo 3. Happ Happ is the youngest of the three.
  16. Seeing Kilian pitch in the bigs is kind of the whole point for me this season.
  17. Kilian came out for the 5th and gave up a run before getting pulled. 4.0IP 4H 2BB 1ER 6K Also, LHP Brandon Hughes' #'s are ridiculous; they basically always have been. Probably has a place in the ML bullpen.
  18. This has been a theme I've noticed for awhile. The hottest hitters sit so cold guys can "get it going". It's asinine.
  19. So we're at the point that we accept that the 2016 WS champions, playing in a mega-market, need another multi-year tear-down/ rebuild before being able to contend again? Happ is 27 and since the beginning of last August (312 PAs) has a .390 wOBA. We are never going to field a complete team of Wander Franco hyper-phenoms. Figuring it out at 27 should be normalized (and I'm as guilty as anyone of fetishizing prospects). Sign the guy to an extension unless you get a ridiculous offer.
  20. 2 more hits for Rivas. He'll probably sit for a week.
  21. I'm sure Ross will continue the brilliant tradition of HR one day, sit the next. Sometimes the match-up calls for it, but I swear it happens way too often.
