  1. Twins are a desperate team looking for another desperate team.
  2. Only reason is to showcase him to increase his trade value...desperate teams do desperate things.
  3. I call this an 80 for 60 line up. Thats when: 80% of this line up would bat ninth for 60% of the other team in MLB. *EDIT: 80-for-60-for-40 40% belong in AAA. **EDIT#2 First two innings prove my point.
  4. He has no options regarding being "open"...so reading between the lines,.he means: I’m open to whatever. I'm just here to grow my mustache, give up the occasional bomb, and try not to get yanked before the 6th inning.
  5. Since the answer to the headline question is so obvious, I have my own question. What do the Twins and a sunburn have in common? They both get worse the longer you sit and watch.
  6. "Twins losing 5-10, which is the number of players they might trade away at the deadline." After the Dodgers series and an 0-6 start to the second half, hopefully the number is 10.
  7. That song hits harder than our lineup with runners in scoring position.
  8. This season reminds me of having a root canal...you just want it to be over ASAP.
  9. Sources say almost as much as naming right for venues. That seems high. My guess is probably about 50% of venue rights. And of course. Teams like the Yankees/Mets/Dodgers are raking in 20-25 million per year for stadium rights, Twins are only making 5-6 million.
  10. First naming right for venues fell. opps... The first thing to go was pure white boards in hockey...then venues...now jerseys. What's next? Mound Visits brought to you by TUMS. THEN: The Minnesota General Mills Twins vs the Seattle Boeing Mariners.
  11. It border line delusional to think the Twins make the playoffs. If the bats come alive, another starting pitcher will go down. If the starters hold up, the bullpen will implode. If the pen holds up, the bats will go cold.
  12. Paddack gave us… well, technically, he gave us innings. It wasn’t always the kind we hoped for, but they were… innings. His era in his last 7 games is 8.55 But to support your point, he is giving us more innings.
  13. Seriously...what would Boston demand to get Alcala back? I would be afraid to ask.
  14. But Ty France is the perfect player for the Twins’ safe, boring, and guaranteed mediocrity.
  15. BREAKING: Chris Paddack has been DFA’d by the Twins and claimed off waivers by Dairy Queen. Sources say DQ was impressed by his consistent soft serve.
  16. What a way to start the 2nd half...getting shelled out of the gate by the worst team in baseball. Meanwhile, Alcala throws another clean inning for Boston.
  17. I'm pretty sure Falvey is #1 on every GM’s speed dial.
  18. "Hoping" was a key word you didn't include in your quotation copy. DXP is "hoping" the next big deal is, that in contrast to the current ownership, the new owners will want to win. My hope is the new owners know how to win.
  19. Minnesota isn’t failing to follow the Cleveland/Tampa model because they won’t, it’s because they can’t. Those teams trade from strength and develop surplus. The Twins don’t have the same luxury. .
  20. A younger version of Clemens, Miranda, Julien and Sabato we need not. Just pick him up when he's DFA'd in a few years.
  21. He actually has played 1st. Screenshot shows his minors/college fielding states. Between college and the minors, he logged 22 games there and started 13. In 2024 at Wichita, he started 13 games at 1B and didn’t commit an error. Mauer was moved there due to concussions. Morneau ended up at 1B because he didn’t cut it behind the plate. So it's common position for a player to settle to for one reason or another. In the Twins case, they need him there.
  22. Crazy how much debate a utility guy creates. Clemens is not the long-term answer. The Twins will move toward putting Keaschall at first ASAP.
