This team is already an insult. I could care less if they win games now. Bring him up, this team can’t play any worse.

Yes they can, and if people wanted to watch the Saints players they would go to a Saints game but then the Saints record is no better than the Twins.

Yes I agree, even bring up Chris Williams. Hamilton hasn't been blowing any wind up my skirt

The remainder of 2022 is about getting everyone healthy for next season.  This season is over.

We are watching the Saints now

[LaBombo]

Twins end their inning by grounding into a double play.  Must be another day ending in 'y'.

Trying to think of another team setting where people display the timing, precision, and consistency that the Twins do by being half a step slow in beating out the DP.

Wait, I have it.

Meh, bringing up Martin who obviously isn't ready for big league pitching doesn't seem like the solution.

I am a fan, and I wouldn't feel insulted. 

Pohlads own this team to make money, and making the Twins a triple A farce will make game attendance drop even more , which means the Twins owners lose more money.

Calvin Griffith sold the Twins because not good Twins meant too low of attendance to pay the price  of top players; Twins attendance had a bounce in 2019, but other than that has been dropping since 2010, fewer fans means less money for the Pohlads which means more mediocre teams.

With the fielding I just saw from Miranda and company the last thing the Twins need are more rookies fielding so the Twin look like more and more like the Keystone Cops.

You and your rookie obsession

[LaBombo]

The Twins being out of contention is their gift to you to help make their wacky high jinks like that dropped popup less likely to make you want to slam a car door shut with your head in it.
