    I'm neither here nor there on the return of Lewis. Though since he will be relatively cheap and has the 1/1 draft pick still on his resume I suspect that he will be back. And he has low trade value. As a fan I have moved on from him. I have zero expectations. But as a fan my opinion is that this player should need to earn his spot on the team and every inning he plays and at bat that he gets. Enough of 1/1 meriting anything for Lewis.

    Yep this is the franchise that needed prime Jim Thome in 2003 but waited to sign him until 2010 when he was near the end of the line
  3. sweetmusicviola16
    But but it's Paul Goldschmidt

    I called this article coming when the Lowe article came out. NO and NO

    Nolan Ryan and Tom Seaver are two classic examples as well of lower body conditioning. Build up those legs, Joe's are toothpicks in comparison to the greats.

    I've said this before, probably for 2-3 years now, the 2019 Twins Bomba squad really hurt the team and set it back. Yes it was a fun season no doubt. The FO became convinced that hitting the HR was the road to glory. So they used the 2019 squad as the blueprint and refused to consider otherwise. But hitting HR's for records couldn't be sustained. Actual hitting and defense became forgotten. Sadly the 2019 strategy is still in the system today.

    Unfortunately my hunch is that we will see another year of below average to bad play in-between injuries. A. He will come cheap. B. He is still a 1/1 draft pick. C. It is the Minnesota Twins organization that is still owned by the Pohlads.

    Maybe he'll be paired in another article yet, but I would potentially have mudcat Grant in my pariah room. This guy faced some real discrimination. Unless I'm not getting what is inferred by the definition in describing pariah.

    Too much limbo in an article like this one. How Lowe can the Twins go
  10. sweetmusicviola16
    Oh boy, now that I see it in print I recant my attempt at humor. This isn't funny anymore. Zoll and TTT might see it and think it's a great idea....
  11. sweetmusicviola16
    TTT has to spend some money. He has to swing for the fences. 3/40 ought to get it done with Goldy.
  12. sweetmusicviola16
    I find myself anxiously awaiting the "lets sign Paul Goldschmidt" TD article.
  13. sweetmusicviola16
    I think these were all good choices. Yes some deserving players will get left off and others who are on a list will feel like they are on the wrong ones. But Wynegar, quite the prodigy for sure. Been awhile since I'd thought of him. One of my favorite players growing up.
  14. sweetmusicviola16
    Offloading 400mil of commercial debt onto the team was a very low thing to do. Typical Pohlads.
  15. sweetmusicviola16
    I was going to mention Pablo. Thanks for doing so. Very little value he gave us.
  16. sweetmusicviola16
    What's a greater accolade? Immortal or inner circle? imo immortal is a far grander descriptor than inner circle. Since it's only two players per room each player has to be sent to one. Or should Joe get every room to himself?
  17. sweetmusicviola16
    Will TD be checking out more of the rooms?
  18. sweetmusicviola16
    It's not a tough decision. Although the Twins do seem to find ways to make things difficult. For themselves
  19. sweetmusicviola16
    The talent level needs to be brought up on the team. Kriedler over Lewis does not attain that. I have no problem if Lewis is pushed off of the team. But it should never be by Kriedler.
  20. sweetmusicviola16
    I actually won't argue with Lee winning this one. He definitely improved and the team has a lot riding on him. But Clemens should have for sure gotten some consideration as well.
  21. sweetmusicviola16
    Very easy for me to say no to Alec Bohm. So no. Unless you have no intention of fielding a winning 2027 team and you are merely looking for a body.
  22. sweetmusicviola16
    Impossible for me to give a GM a passing grade who doesn't know when to hold them, fold them or when to draw. Zoll didn't know.
  23. sweetmusicviola16
    I greatly disagree with the statement that Houstons biggest accomplishment was exceeding expectations. He had a great season. Simple as that. Houston having a flashy slugging % should not be used to grade him either. He hit the ball this season. Fielded the ball. That's exactly what he needs to do. Houston gets my vote for Twins milb player of the year.
  24. sweetmusicviola16
    This is my take as well. Don't hamstring this team with long-term contracts for the current FA's who really aren't that good. Take on somebodies vets that have one or two years remaining on a contract that wants to shed some payroll. I sense that this team could be very good by the end of 2028. That might be the time to shop the upper tiers of FA for a splash or two. Not now imo.

    Could have added a third player to this story for sure, Trevor Larnach.
