    It's too bad we're talking about the Twins, because they are only capable of a house cleaning once every 10-15 years or so.

    At least the days of winning a weak division will finally be exposed. This is good for the game.
  3. jctwins
    Yeah gee I’d hate to be a fan of a team where the fans actually cared.
  4. jctwins
    Is that a change from what used to be true?
  5. jctwins
    You can't trade him while he's on the IL. Putting him back on the IL took him off of the market.

    In a close game would you rather have the guy that plays the same position have a chance at being on base in the 9 spot or a 1 in 10 shot at a home run? I'd take the guy on base.

    What are his numbers in low A ball so far? Edit: Nevermind...found them... https://www.milb.com/player/miguel-sano-593934 SSS at this point I guess

    I heard Delmon Young showed up at camp looking better than ever, too.

    Manfred Mann's Earth Band needs to go.

    It's cool to feel like we're in a time machine and they're going after acquisitions they didn't want to spend on in 2018 because they are at a discount in 2022.

    I suspect revenue projections are far less scientific than we think they are. If Buxton is performing at a level to get the incentive comp, revenue should be up to offset that.

    I'd really like to see them develop the equivalent of a Red Zone channel for baseball. No commercials, and the producers flip to the best situation happening at the time. Run it all on 3-5 minute delay so the producers know what to program slightly after it's actually happened. A way to turn on a channel when East coast games start at 5:00 Central and leave it on until games close at about midnight on the West coast. Make it available to all mlb.com subscribers, no blackouts. And split it off to another provider like the AppleTV thing above.

    I'm just glad that RocketPig guy is gone. He was intolerable.

    Am I the first to get in a BYTO reference? I'm only here because BYTO is gone. My bookmark reference remains to this day. That place was the stuff of legends.
  15. jctwins
    Yeah if only part of the outcome of this was actually doing something for the fan base to grow it rather than shrink it, i.e. how about we cut the owner's side of the revenue by reducing ticket prices down to the current player share. The net effect would be a larger fan base and a bigger pie over time. Sigh.

    I'd argue a player that plays 5-7 days a week has more marketing value than one that plays 1/5 games. Just math and the odds of seeing a player play.

    Now 17. Just keeping my thread alive. They clinched a playoff spot last night. Pretty funny watching them stack up on the pitchers mound for a team photo after the game, which looked more like a high school victory than an MLB playoff ticket. The champagne party looked pretty half hearted, too. Maybe that routine is finally getting closer to running its course. Staging one of those after every achievement through the playoffs has gone way out of hand.
  18. jctwins
    This streak is ridiculous. How long can it continue, and does this mean they are more or less viable in the post season than previously thought?
  19. jctwins
    BINGO. With owners that have their heads in the clouds or buried in the sand, and consistently maintain a culture of dumping the responsibility on their leadership, while letting a culture of "fiscal responsibility" consistently be a part of every decision, this team won't be able to consistently put a first class club on the field.
  20. jctwins
    I don't follow this thread closely, but did anyone see Danny Valencia is playing on the Olympic team? I still wish we had heard Dark Star's story about him.
  21. jctwins
    Fire Gardy and Rick Anderson to start. Let Mauer go out gracefully with an "injury" so we can move the logjam at first base. It's time for some new voices in the clubhouse.
  22. jctwins
    There is other back and forth about inflation, but isn't $150 today not that far away from when they were around $100 in the past? Again, the stadium was built to allow them to play in this arena.
  23. jctwins
    Could someone explain how this is the same or different than Joe Mauer 2009? Player developed in your system, great performance, off and on, then especially on in a high leverage year. Reasons to believe revenue would go up in the future. We know now Mauer never played up to that contract, but it was the right thing to do at that time. Tell me why I'm right or wrong. Not trying to be controversial.
  24. jctwins
    This probably belongs in the "Morneau in the booth thread", but that combined unwieldy broadcast crew was terrible.
  25. jctwins
    Thanks for the comments from everyone. I did figure it out after my post, but I always like to view things from the outsider's perspective, and I was more patient than most would be in "looking for" good content. Hoping the new format is an open door to new people and not a circle jerk among the regulars. I'm saying this as someone that mods another forum, and we struggle with the same thing.
