Rocco has no pitching  , 

We have a new Rocco forming right in front of our eyes , he has to trust what he has and leave the pitcher in longer than he really wants to  ...

Even though my two favorite Twins of all time were Kirby and Rick Aguilera, I'd have to vote for Hrbie on having a beer with. I also vote for Pedro because he seems like a genuinely good dude. I feel like Perk knows how to throw a few back.

I think Joe Ryan would be good company for anybody who likes to "garden"

I like to "bake"

Pedro is the genuine.nice guy...hands down. People may forget that Ryan is from the crazy dead head Bay Area of CA.

Ryans having  a futbol jersey instead of a football jersey to me seemed like he's leaning too hard/forcing the quirk laid back guy vibe.

Have you been to a Twins game on a Sunday lately? Half of the fans are kids, 75% of them wearing Ronaldo Jerseys. 2 Sundays ago there were more white Fly Emirates jerseys than Twins jerseys in the stands.

2Joe Ryan and Tony Oliva. Announcer would definitely be Halsey Hall. Manager would be Gardy.

It would be interesting to have both Joe and Tony in a sit down conversation. Very different people to say the least.

I LIVED IN THE UK and Spain. FUTBOL fans are real fans. You don't see people leaving their seats during the match.

Tony is a living example of pure kindness and he loves baseball and people. Ryan seems interested in many things and is most likely a huge Oliva fan already since he has had some contact with Tony O within the Twins organization. Ryan also loves baseball. I'm sure Ryan would have a ton of questions about the most effective way to pitch certain hitters.

Globally, it is the main sport. Rabid fans, especially in England and Brazil, but also more than 100 other countries as well.

Fully agree...I spoke to Tony once when he was seated behind me in a game about 20 years ago. Super nice person. I had the same experience with Killebrew at a breakfast once prior to an old timers day at Target field. Tony is a bit like present day Pablo in my view. Ryan would be respectful...

It is rhe world sport and it is coming to America via rhe World Cup...many American football fans will disagree. In Spain....kids start at a very young age...think about the cost between playing the 2 sports as well as the potential injury
