September 20, 20223 yr "There’s no way around the role injuries played in the Twins’ struggles. They’ve placed an AL-high 31 players on the injured list for more than 2,000 total days, and in the biggest series of the season they trotted out half of a Triple-A roster, without Byron Buxton, Jorge Polanco, Tyler Mahle, Royce Lewis, Max Kepler, Ryan Jeffers, Trevor Larnach, Alex Kirilloff and many others. That’s been the case all season, and it would be silly to deny the reality of how damaging that many injuries can be to a team’s ability to remain in contention. But it would be equally silly to suggest the injuries should excuse losing nine of 10 to the Guardians, or four months spent playing like the Royals and Tigers. Injuries are the reason for some things, not the excuse for everything. Twins outfielders have hit an AL-worst .202 with a .585 OPS since Aug. 1, including .167 in September, yet they didn’t call up top outfield prospect Matt Wallner from Triple-A St. Paul until their playoff odds were single digits. Lack of spending is no longer a valid excuse, either. This season’s $140 million payroll is exactly average among MLB teams and ranks second-highest in the AL Central. Cleveland is likely going to win the division with a payroll under $70 million, spending half as much as the Twins. It’s not the payroll available to the front office that’s the problem. It’s how they’ve spent it." theathletic.con aaron gleeman Edited September 20, 20223 yr by caulfield12
