I don't know which 9 games your talking about and I'm not a Gardy apologist so I'm not necessarily arguing against your point. However, these starting pitchers have already put our bullpen in a big...

What are the totals for Twins/Visitors at TF and Twins/home team away from TF? What site would have this info most readily available? I did just a bit of looking at stats on yahoo a few days ago and...

I think we're all forgetting one major factor, economics! At the end of the day there are two and only two goals for any mlb franchise, winning the world series and attracting fans. This thread has...

I'm no scout and I don't pretend to be one.

But...

When I watch Worley and Hernandez pitch my thought process is, "They don't have any stuff and I'm not seeing any results." I'm having a real...

Once again, the laws of economics rule. You get what you pay for. Period. End of story.

Thank you Pohlads and Terry Ryan

As far as the Twins philosophy and what they are teaching in the minors...

In the Eastern League (12 teams) the New Britain staff is currently 7th in strikeouts and 8th in walks.

In the Florida...

I've enjoyed keeping up with our minor league affiliates this year. Our AA, A+, and A- clubs are having a great start to the year. So, I decided to compile some stats from Milb.com. Here you go,...

What I find really fascinating in all this talk about under slot/over slot etc. etc. etc. is that people are forgetting that after the top 3 in this draft the other players all basically come in...

There's no reason for Stewart to go under slot at 4. He and his agent realize he most likely won't be around past 6. From a player's perspective, you take under slot money at 4 because you realize...

I'm enjoying re-engaging with Hockey and watching the Wild this season. I used to watch alot of Hockey growing up in North Dakota. I enjoyed the rivalry between UND and UM and also watching the...

Seth, shouldn't the score of the CR game show CR 8, South Bend 4 in 9 innings?

There have been "minor" leagues basically since the inception of baseball back in the mid 19th century. Often times, these minor leagues employed some of the best players in baseball who for various...

Come on guys, when do we ever let fact get in the way of opinion around here? It's true, it certainly sucks to live in Minnesota right now and be a Twins fan. I'm glad I live in Iowa. Oops, it...

Let's bring this discussion back to baseball. Mustard or Ketchup with your dog?

I'm just fine wth Gardy's seat being plenty warm right now. I thought he was the right man for the job back in '02. I think he does a good job with veterans who probably need managed the least. I...

I've got no problems with Target Field whatsoever. I've been there once to experience it's majesty. I was at the Metrodome on several occasions. I can live with indoor baseball. Target Field,...

I love baseball. I love watching baseball, reading about baseball, talking about baseball, and I used to love playing baseball in my younger days. I don't love 3 1/2 hour games (by the way, 3 of...

Wonderful idea, I'm in!

But I need help deciding between:

Group A) Worley, Pelfrey, Correia, DeVries, Diamond, Gibson

or

Group B) Dickey, Lohse, Liriano, Baker, Garza, Humber

I'm not necessarily in the camp that thinks Slama should be given a chance at the expense of Swarzak. However, is it too much of a stretch to suggest that Swarzak has gotten his opportunities...

I was able to attend my first game at Target Field last July. My wife bought tickets in early April, back when some still thought they had a chance for a bounce back year, at face value. I'd like...

Like it or not, this article is probably a good barometer of the national perception surrounding the Twins right now. Let's face it, our 25 man roster doesn't exactly strike fear in any opponents. ...

We all know the succession of successful Twins in CF. It sounds as though Hicks might be a combination of Puckett, Hunter, and Span with some of the best from each of them. My question. Is there a...

I would imagine that the level of instruction any 18 year old experiences going from high school ball to professional minor league instruction would feel like a "barrage". Here's my take. If a...

Let's assume Hicks makes the team. What's your batting order beyon Hicks, Mauer? Is Morneau third, or Willingham, or possibly even an insanely good Parmelee (yeah, i know, a reach). What about...

I'm really looking forward to seeing what Parmelee and Plouffe can do with 500-600 at bats as well. If Parmelee provides a .770 OPS, how does his future look as a 1B rather than a RF? Should he be...
