  1. I'm trying to figure out how probability and on-field production are mutually exclusive, when teams have 10-100 person analytics departments whose primary goal is to quantify the probability of on-field production.
  2. My bad. Didn't realize FCL ended Tuesday. So, yeah. All those promotions aren't a coincidence. They want those guys playing.
  3. Lakeland is going to have to make six roster moves to accommodate. West Michigan is currently one down, so somebody could get promoted. Otherwise, we could see some cuts or players shipped back to the complex.
  4. Did the Tigers get more for cash considerations on the trade deadline than they got for Lorenzen? I will hang up and listen.
  5. FWIW, found this in the replies of the Awful Announcing tweet.
  6. Next Tuesday. Complex season ends on Saturday, so expect a lot of promotions of players they want to get more PT. I bet we see McGonigle, Turney, Callahan, Campbell, Briceno too.
  7. I will NOT stand for this Jake Higginbotham slander.
  8. All three bat left. Bigbie bats right. That's a big difference. And if Bigbie turned into Boesch, that's a win.
  9. To answer Barney's grandson's question. Fulmer already returned with the Twins last year.
  10. Nope. It is 20 days total, and he will eclipse that tomorrow. He will be OOO next year, unless there is some mysterious fourth option that Short and Nevin were able to use this year.
  11. (Googles Bo Naylor's handedness) Yep.
  12. ... or he can catch on somewhere that has a lefty starting catcher and be a decent platoon partner who can get by in the outfield in a pinch once he figures some things out with his swing.
  13. Barring injury, I am guessing Maton goes down. Vierling playing more third and Maton barely playing, send down the lefty for the lefty.
  14. I would argue the same has been true this year too.
  15. Arb talk is moot. I bet the club option is below what he would get in arbitration, and I'm curious the terms.
  16. They get him for the minimum the rest of this year, but would have to go through arbitration next year for a price tag of about 4-5 mil (because you can't decrease salaries too far in arb). I'd bet he's non-tendered.
  17. Remember that time they took all pitchers in the draft?
  18. I am on board with trading Skubal, by the way. Flexor injuries tend to be Tommy John precursors. Of course the people you are trading him to know this as well, so not sure you can extract max value.
  19. Roster crunches take care of themselves. There isn't looking like one this offseason, and that is all we need to worry about.
  20. https://twitter.com/cmccosky/status/1692267247559958536?t=cfDXCPWT2niXqlL--GH8Zw&s=19
  21. I was under the impression that his whole library went down that path. I'm pretty sure Sweet Caroline was a character not of age. And Neil Diamond had another song or two of that ilk. I believe that girl who would soon be a woman is one by now.
  22. My Golf GPS watch has a step counter on it. Even riding a card, golfing nets a good 5000 steps, and more if there are cart path only restrictions. Granted, I'm more willing to walk for part of a hole to make things easier on my cart mate than he would be.
