Joey Gallo Is A Land of Contrasts

However, he still provides elite defense in the outfield. He has the highest strikeout rate in MLB history. His BABIP is 43% higher than his career average. The Yankees signed him this offseason. It is the first time he has signed a contract with them. They are also the only team to sign him since the start of the season. he ranked in top 25% of outfielders since 2017.

Cody Bellinger Bet On Himself and is About to Win Big

The 2023 season was a career resurgence for Cody Bellinger. He was once again the heart and soul of a ball club's offense, this time with the Chicago Cubs, and he proved that he can still be one of baseball's most dangerous threats at the plate. This season showed that a lot can change over the course of a year. Last winter, the Dodgers…

Max Kepler is Locked In

It wasn't that long ago that a sizable portion of Twins Territory was ready to move on from long-time right fielder Max Kepler. Zach put himself in harm's way when he asked in early June if Kepler should be playing some center field in light of Byron Buxton's lingering knee issues. Instead of support for that idea, the general tone of the comments…

Can Either Miguel Sano or Kennys Vargas Get Back to the Bigs?

Can Either Miguel Sano or Kennys Vargas Get Back to the Bigs?

Obviously neither Kennys Vargas or Miguel Sano were ever going to become the next David Ortiz, but both were lazily compared at every juncture. As big-time sluggers that failed to realize much of their potential for Minnesota, it was low hanging fruit to bring up that suggestion. Their careers are not at all the same, and Sano's tenure with the…

Will the Real Trevor Larnach Please Stand Up

Seeing plenty of other talents fly off the market, Minnesota opted to bet on the bounceback from outfielder Joey Gallo. His addition likely cements the future for Max Kepler, and removes him from the organization. But that would place plenty of focus on youngsters Alex Kirilloff and Trevor Larnach. For much of their major league careers thus far,…

The Minnesota Twins signed two-time All-Star and all-or-nothing slugger Joey Gallo on Friday.

Dodgers free-agent outlook: Joey Gallo looking for next restart, with hopes of better results

Joey Gallo was ready for the escape, so much so that in the days before the Yankees traded him, he stopped shaving. Upon finding out he'd been shipped to the Dodgers, he played "California Love" as he rode to Yankee Stadium to collect his belongings. After a miserable year-long stint in New York, where he said he "was just chasing a hit so people…

Does Joey Gallo Make Sense for the Minnesota Twins?

Does Joey Gallo Make Sense for the Minnesota Twins?

Realistically the Twins are inundated with left-handed bats in the outfield. Alex Kirilloff, Max Kepler, and Trevor Larnach all hit from that side of the plate. With Byron Buxton as the lone right-handed hitter, manager Rocco Baldelli could use more from the right side of the dish. Given what Gallo's market could be, and the banning of the shift,…

After two years of ruling the AL Central, they slid to the bottom of the division in a nightmare 2021 season. The question is, are they going to stay there in 2022?

With a run of three playoff appearances in four years, the Minnesota Twins were expected to at least compete in the lowly AL Central last season. Instead, they finished 16 games under.500 and went from first in 2019 and 2020 to worst in 2021. They don't look like a legitimate contender in 2022, either.
