As far as Miranda.... great that he wants to train with him (we'll see if it actually happens when he leaves... I doubt it), but training with Correa a few days or weeks will not make or break Miranda's future. 

 

Doubt, a common thread.

I'm saying that his offence was underwhelming during the year when the Twins still had a chance and that he has been fire during a month with little to play for (and which there are more inexperienced pitchers with teams just playing out the season). 

At no point did I say he was not trying or dogging it.... simply that he could have performed offensively much better when it counted.

As far as tolerating the booing....um...he kind of earned that booing didn't he? So, hard to give someone credit for handling something that they created by poor decision making.

As far as Miranda.... great that he wants to train with him (we'll see if it actually happens when he leaves... I doubt it), but training with Correa a few days or weeks will not make or break Miranda's future. 

As far as saying that he loved Minnesota and his family did too.... OF COURSE he does... he needs as many teams 'in' on him as possible to maximize his value, like ummm... a Dior t-shirt or something. 

To be clear, I thought Correa was a fine signing and he performed overall well this year..... just not offensively when it mattered and not up to a superstar status.

It will be fascinating to watch the market for him this winter. I don't see a whole lot of change in the supply/demand compared to last season and his performance this year was not transcendent by any means. Boras will have to earn his money this offseason

In a way, I too am a "DC Twins fan". I was born in DC and my first major league game was with my grandfather at old Griffith Park against the Tigers in 1952. Even though I moved to North Carolina in 1949 I was a loyal Senators fan until the Senators moved to Minneapolis, when I became a  loyal Twins fan. So call me "DC Twins" also.
