Wow, the AL Central is at it again. While Cleveland and KC have winning records, they're not exactly lighting the world ablaze with their play.

Hey, this isn’t a terrible way to start the day.

Signing 16-year-olds and turning them into productive MLB pitchers is, unsurprisingly, a war of attrition. https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/brewers-minor-league/international-free-agent-pitching-part-one-a-league-of-failure-r3285/

You know, we're pretty angry at the Twins but imagine being an Angels fan.

Help us build our first top 20 prospect list of the 2025 season! Image courtesy of © Brett Davis-Imagn Images Unlike other publications, Twins Daily allows all users to help build our top prospect rankings. Anyone with a Twins Daily account can participate and give their input on who you think should be in the Twins' top prospects list. Before you vote, you can hit our top prospects page for the latest stats and news on Twins prospects while on the voting page, every name is a clickable link that brings up their current stat card. Voting is simple, just follow the instructions below! Here's the rundown how to participate: 1. You must have an account and be logged in to vote. If you don't have an account, click here. It literally requires 60 seconds to create an account. 2. Review our current top 20 prospect list, catch up on stats, rankings, etc. (you can do so from the voting page link below) 3. Have your prospect list in your filthy little paws? Then flip on over to the new prospect voting page (after reading the rest of this, please). https://twinsdaily.com.com/prospect-voting 4. Voting is super simple, you drag and drop players in the order you wish them to be. After you move a prospect, the list automatically renumbers so you don't lose track of the order. This works on mobile devices but it's a *vastly* better experience on desktop. Sorry, that's just how this kind of thing works. There's no great way to make something like this be as awesome on a phone screen. 5. Each prospect has a comment section where you can add any commentary you have on that player. At the bottom of the list, there is a general comment section to explain over-arching things you wish to mention. 6. Don't see a prospect you want to put on the list? Just pop back here and give me a mention (in a comment, start typing @Brock Beauchamp or @Brandon Glick as it appears). Mention the prospect you want added and I will do that asap. 7.

This team succcckkkksssssssssss.

but now they have more short hands

I agree. As good as game one was, game two was equally bad. And to lose by nine after all those bricks bodes well for the games back home.

When I refer to incompetence, I'm speaking of on-field play. I am passing no judgment on either the front office or coaching.

That was my intent, yes. If the Twins win, say, 85 games everybody keeps their job.

I was driving and thinking about this yesterday. What would you rather see: 1. The short-term incompetence to continue at such a level that it results in Baldelli being fired and Falvey being put on the hot seat. 2. A return to expectations, with the Twins playing at or just above .500 and fighting for a Wild Card spot in 2025. I'm curious what people think about this. It's not an attempt to blast the manager or the front office, it's a legitimate question. With ownership in flux and the team playing just WRETCHED baseball for 60+ games, I'm not entirely sure where I land on this question.

The Wolves looked terrible last night. After the first 20 minutes or so, the Lakers didn't look much better. An ugly game all-around and I'm not sure what to take from it. We knew the Wolves wouldn't repeat their shooting from game one, nor are they nearly as bad as they looked in game two.
