I really like the new Twin Cities blue and white uniforms. Outstanding.

Absolutely...those uni's are very nice!

[Brock Beauchamp]

Correa sure looks like hot garbage to start the season. I'm not even a little bit concerned about it long-term but yuck in the here and now.

[Brock Beauchamp]

SEE I JUST NEEDED TO TALK TRASH

[USAFChief]

Gotta score on that, even if you're Christian Vasquez.

[twins_89]

The Twins secondary offseason moves are looking pretty good at the moment. Vasquez, Taylor, Farmer, and Solano have been really valuable to start the year and will be great depth if the team ever gets healthy.

He's the fastest fire hydrant I've ever seen, though.

What would change for you, or any fan, if they changed communication?

Lots of body parts in the right side, was it a pull, impact, slept on it wrong, threw to hard?  This one particularly could’ve been much better explained.

You should see him when he unhooks the 4 bottom plow.

He just runs too long in one spot.

Slow down guys. We old guys can't keep up this pace of posts.😊

Yeah... Singular noun, plural verb form.

 

Either Donut thinks or donuts think.

 

Smart donuts are the future.

Donut concur.

I don't think we've really acknowledged how differently this season will play out if Larnach stays healthy. He completely alters the look of the middle of the order.

I bought myself a Correa home white jersey, need to manufacture a reason to buy the TC cream jersey now.

Maybe for my wife? I think I could sell that move.

Fresh out of the package, it pressed out nice. 

[h2oface]

That was ugly at home for Correa. Feels like we left a run out there. 

[USAFChief]

Really liking Larnach so far, and it looks legit to me.

Correa is generally a smart baserunner but he's possibly the slowest shortstop I've ever seen.

This tiny payment thing...is a giant pain! OOPS...sorry, I got mesmerized by the U.S. Bank commercial again. I've only seen it a bazillion times.

Base running like its last year.

He has hit every time he's healthy, he's just never healthy. Hopefully this is the year he breaks out.

[USAFChief]

Walk Bregman to face Alvarez...not ideal.

[Twins_Fan_For_Life]

Four run lead.   Don't give 'em all back

[Brock Beauchamp]

Whoops

[Parfigliano]

Ouch.

His range in the field seems to be more limited so far this year, too. Great arm though, if he can get to the ball.

Send him with 2 outs every time.  Nothing wrong with that.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

That didn't take too long. Tie game....

He's gotta do better. Rally killer right there.
