Friday morning, Donaldson sees the Twins are coming to town, thinks, "This'll help me get in front of the MVP race."

In recent seasons I consoled myself with hopes for a top draft pick. After Buxton's performance this year even that consolation has been taken away. My sense is that the Twins are doing a poor job developing talented players.

Players do really well in AA, pretty well in AAA - those are usually good indicators. I think they also do a bad job of creating an environment where talented young players can feel comfortable. As Gary Gaetti said, "it's hard to field the ball when your hands are around your throat."

I think that we need to consider his entire body of work.

I'm not defending Molitor I just think beating that dead horse day after day with the pitching this team has gets kind of old.

at least Gaetti said that about himself.

somebody update Wikipedia, it lists his current team as the independent league Lancaster Barnstormers.

There's always someone who can't wait to put bad news in Wiki...today's domotion will get there soon enough.

Hector Santiago, Andrew Albers, and Pat Dean lined up for Cleveland.

 

At least we're spending these last few weeks of a lost season preparing for the Worst! FTFY

Schaefer went to that famous baseball factory, California polytechnic institute of something or the other. It's like Trump U, only they have actual professors!

erase the season-opening nine-game streak plus the current ten-game streak and the twins are suddenly a scorching 49-62! plus, if they win their last 32 games, they'll finish at .500!

 

on second thought, never mind ...

So at the Rennaisance Festival today I saw an elephant crap a small village. Sounds like most of you did something similar.

You are somewhat new here. Math is highly discouraged during GT while the game is in progress. It makes some of the posters confused and lethargic! :). After the game ends, math is strictly forbidden, it interrupts our naps! :)

Was anyone from the Twins FO at Ren Fest? I hear that is a celebration of archaic ways, and quaint but inefficient processes!

No, it was entertaining and funny. You should try it out for yourself.
