  1. This is a nice idea. This is something that I would consider if I lived closer. We only make it there a couple weekends a year. This year the schedule is very friendly with only two weekends with back to back home series. I haven't checked recently but do the Twins still have the season ticket sharing? I was thinking a few years ago you could search for season ticket groups that are looking for partners. I am fortunate to be a part of a pretty massive group with seating sections located in different areas of the stadium with packages mainly consisting of 2 tickets per game for 10 games or 4 tickets per game for 5 games.
  2. The only concern I have with Meyer is that the few times I checked the AAA box score, it seems like he threw a lot of pitches and would barely get 5 IP. I will be the first to admit I did not read every box score or every overview each time he pitched. That was just the tendencies I noticed from occasional readings. I am a big fan of his and I hope he gets a spot in the rotation. However, I have a feeling Milone gets it and we see Meyer in AAA to start the year.
  3. Personally, I feel that it is Milone's job to lose with May starting the season in the bullpen as a long man/spot starter and Meyer starting in AAA. I would expect to see Meyer in June. Now injuries could happen and it could be an injury on another team. I think they dangle Pelfrey to see if anyone bites. That being said, I would expect to see a lot of him early in spring training as an audition for other teams. I wouldn't expect to get much for him even if we pick up some salary.
  4. I agree with your predictions. The only difference I would have would be May in bullpen for Graham. I can see working out a trade to keep him though.
  5. I think he will get it together. I also think by the time he gets it together, he will be wearing a different uniform like Gomez did. Side note, love the powder blue uniform in the Joe Mauer pic. Those never get old.
  6. I would be happy to grab de la Rosa, Garcia, Graham, or to a lesser extent Deshields. I think any of the three pitchers could be stashed on the roster and could contribute a little bit this year. Garcia would be the most interesting just based off his young age.
  7. I tend to agree with the article and many of the previous comments. Is there room to take a risk on a guy who could bounce back from injury? Sure there is. Is there room for an impact arm? Sure there is. Is there room for a seasoned veteran who will mainly be an innings eater? Here is where I say no. If we are not going to gamble on a guy who may or may not bounce back from injury or sign an arm that will push the rest of the rotation to be better, then why bother? At some point, we need to get a good look at what May, Meyer, Milone, Darnell, and possibly depending on how the first part of his season goes, Barrios. Voglsong and Volquez and who ever else falls into the retread section really does not provide the roster any value. Like the article states, we don't know how serious they are in these guys but lets hope it isn't very serious.
  8. If you weren't associated with the Twins, would you buy tickets (single game or season) to watch this product? And why?
  9. No need to trade prospects for Hisashi Iwakuma. He is a FA. They better pursue him hard. His last couple of outings weren't good but he had a solid year.
  10. If anyone knows where to submit an application, please forward me the address. My resume is updated.
  11. I am hoping Trevor May can follow the suit.
  12. I like the idea of Wong. Wasn't he once drafted by the Twins too?
  13. I was listening to the game and when Wilken Ramirez came up and swung at the first pitch both Gladden and Provus said that was OK. In a roundabout way, they said that he was called on to hit and they didn't mind the aggressive approach. I don't mind it either. He was able to work the count after falling down 0-2.
