Twins Announce 2016 Home Schedule

Wow, the Twins don't play IN Chicago that first week, or in April at all. It seems they usually do and it's usually really cold. But so sweet that the last games of the season will be here. Yay for that!

But before the regular season begins and I plan any 'skip' days, this is the schedule I'll be planning for!

Would rather have them play Atlanta in 2017 so we can go check out the new stadium and go to a Lookouts game. Oh well...

The Twins used to play the Blue Jays in August at home, which made a lot of sense because kids are out of school and many people are on summer vacation (especially teachers). This allowed for a lot of Canadians to travel south to Minnesota to watch the Blue Jays and do many other things (e.g. shop). It's poor planning to host the Blue Jays in may. This is the one thing I'd like to see fixed on the schedule. Move the Blue Jays back to August when Canadians are on summer vacation.

I don't know about you but I go to Minneapolis to see the Twins play.

Yeah, I do too. But it's difficult convincing people to go to Minnesota to watch baseball as most people here are Blue Jays fans. I don't know too many Twins fans up here.

Same could be said of a lot of visiting teams we only see at home once.

So either Cleveland or Seattle for the Pub Crawl?

I think they should move the pub crawl to Chicago for the last games of the season. :)

I'd make that drive to see a competitive team.  Best thing about Chitown is that the WhiteSox following is so fair weather that it will probably be a stadium filled with Twins fans.

What's the point of having these rivalry series if you schedule them at the worst possible times?

 

12:10pm on a Tuesday in April. LOL.

 

Exactly. Either have them as 3 game weekend series or be done with them altogether.
