what are the chances that Hahn told Renteria that Grandal is the starter and will get all the starts except 1 or 2 a week? I just have a feeling that Hahn doesn't want it to look like buyers remorse, these guys all have egos and idk. just spitballing

this Robert at bat should be entertaining

you know why he batted 3rd last year, hombre

well we got Pods when he was what, 28 yo? How old is Madrigal, 22?

no way. he will float around the league for awhile. he has a great toolbox. a lot of coaches will "try to fix him"

Should someone tell him or no

lol, Reyloldo Nopez

guys relax, maybe he has a sore calf.

lmfao, good luck tonight

you would have to pay me to wear a Grandal Jersey

Rick Renteria is gonna do everything within his power to make damn sure this team doesn't make the playoffs. This motherfucker needs to be fired asap.

THIS

nice job, offense

ikr, what a horrible signing that was. total waste of money.

If the Sox were interested in winning they would've cut Encarnacion two weeks ago and figured out a permanent solution with McCann, this is laughable. dude hitting .167 with less homers than Tim Anderson is our DH fuck you Jerry, lol

Lol

ballgame, get em tomorrow.

twins will score at least 2-3 more runs tonight.

wtf lol, the ball was right in his glove. he just dropped it

Grandal is hot trash. yeah I said it. put mccann in.

its his health. he can lie about it all he wants. it really isnt any of your business. not sure why that's so hard to understand for some people. do I need to draw out an analogy with someone who isnt a pro ball player to make the point more clear or.. ?

Not paying McCann, even more than he might be worth, would be a really bad mistake. Very few players you can look at and say they just add something intangible to this team, hes one of those kinds of players Fangraphs Grandal: 111 PA - 0.7 WAR McCann: 61 PA - 0.9 WAR Baseball Reference Grandal: 0.0 WAR McCann: 0.9 WAR McCann is literally capable of winning games for you by having him in the lineup over Grandal right now. At what point does a manager start playing him over Grandal, or at least have their ABs remain the same over the rest of the year?

must be my alter ego I was like, hmm I dont...remember... posting this..?

I left the thread when it was 4-0 Twins. I see that my negativity really was too much for this team.

You gotta feel good to see that 2 rbi hit for Mazara, dude needed that
