roden/outman is a 50/50 toss up. tbh outman probs has the edge due to no longer having minor league options

3/5/26 26-man roster prediction:

c - jeffers, caratini

inf - bell, keaschall, lewis, lee, kreidler, clemens

of- larnach, buxton, wallner, roden, martin

sp - ryan, ober, simeon, bradley, zebby

rp- rogers, sands, hendriks, banda, topa, funderburk, altavilla, orze

i don’t think Chafin makes it

rodriguez is also a significantly better defensive center fielder than outman meaning he could seamlessly fill in as buxton’s backup

i understand this is isn’t a unique perspective whatsoever but i’ve been pretty vocal about my desire for the twins to keep larnach all offseason.

i think roden and rodriguez have already done enough to make me comfortable with the club parting ways with larnach

i’d be comfortable parting ways with larnach and outman and rolling with roden and rodriguez as the two LHH cOFs opposite wallner

there’s a good chance larnach and outman will be serviceable cOFs for seasons to come but MN is in a spot where they should embrace the volatility of roden + rodriguez

yeah, 99% of right wingers who are anti israel are just anti semitic charlatans (i.e., Carlson and Owens) who see the polling that says like 80% of americans want to decouple from the country

i feel like there’s through line between being anti-ice, anti-israel, and anti-palantir/surveillance. i don’t think a genuine progressive would concede on any of the three issues.

am i cooked if i like the aesthetics of savant charts and other data-viz?

There’s a Nonzero Chance the Twins Traded Louis Varland For the Next Ted Williams

i heard doug mcdermott say this once

Can Alan Roden Sustain a 390 wRC+?

i am pro adults keeping foul balls and home runs balls. i don’t think a child is entitled to a ball based off youth alone. also, if you think adults don’t deserve to keep baseball because of their older age, you’re being ageist. Woke is back. do you really wanna get caught being ageist in 2026?? 👀

i just know Chuck and Hakeem are behind this

nice trade Zoll 👍

i would like the record to show my pick is Hendry Mendez (Raya did look electric last night, tho, you’re right)

Rotation, Bullpen, or St. Paul: Analytically Breaking Down Taj Bradley’s Arsenal Despite middling performance, Taj Bradley has the stuff to be a starter. But some changes need to be made.

I wrote about Taj Bradley and argued that he should remain a starter with greater emphasis on throwing his curveball and, to a lesser extent, his cutter. My latest for @twinsdaily.com:
