Also being well beyond the point that the trade is even relevant when considering Chirs Sale's production for the Red Sox. He's essentially a free agent pickup at this point

There are plenty of ways to score runs, hitting home runs is just the most efficient.

Someone boring like Olsen or Perez is gonna win.

Stephen A Smith is paid to pay inflammatory bullshit. Now his colleague Passan will be going on his show to Call him dumb. This is all just outrage theatre that ESPN is absolutely intentionally manufacturing.

Hit multiple in BP

I haven't watched any of this stuff in years, but I'll be tuning in to all of it. Having the HR Derby in Denver without the humidor is a contributing factor as well.

When the game was meant to be in Atlanta, I'm sure they were going to be honoring Hank Aaron. So I assume that.

This is half right

People pretty much all had the right idea. Shame.

It's less about eyes on the game, than it is eyes on Ohtani. He may well be one of the greatest baseball players ever, but like his teammate, the greatest baseball player ever, plays on a crappy organization that no one but hardcore baseballheads and people on the west coast are ever going to watch. It's a beauty pageant, and Shohei is one beautiful SOB

I didn't say they don't care, I said that I don't

I want to see Shohei Ohtani start the game after he hits a nuke in the 1st more than I want to see Rodon or Lynn pitch at all. The guy is doing stuff none of us have ever seen, the league needs to push this to the forefront as much as possible, because lord knows the Angels won't

Moncada is the best player on the team even without the power showing up lmao

He does things on a fairly regular basis that hurt the Sox wining odds, (bunting at bad times, not positioning the defense well) but any impact he may or may not have on the teams psychology is a big ole shrug. And yes I'll always give the lions share of credit to the players because Tony, or any manager, can pull any strings they want but all that matters is if the player gets the job done. If any one of the guys Ricky called on in that debacle in Oakland came in and threw strikes, we're probably sitting here and complaining about him mishandling Hendricks right now.

The two bombs today notwithstanding

He’s in it. Hopefully one of Rodon and Lynn still is too. Otherwise probably the same.

The 2021 team is Twins bad without the draft picks playing well though

Also Tim as a drafting and development story is so wildly good that if you told me it could happen ten years ago I’d call you a dummy

Kinda funny in retrospect that hostetler was pseudo fired

It doesn’t move as much

Those poor poor kids

He's not going to jail

Hell probably go through them all

An Eloy is never late, Frodo Baggins, nor is he early he arrives precisely when he is meant to

I’m almost certain he will pitch again. I just hope it’s not for my team.
