  1. First in-person game of the year, and we get the best possible version of Ober. I actually found myself giggling at some of the swings the Marlins were taking. So fun to watch!
  2. I was at the game. Pure sorcery from Ober, really fun to watch!
  3. It’s a shame to waste what might end up being a historic season from Buxton.
  4. Thanks Matthew. Well written and on the money. We don’t want to give up on him, but this game can be cruel sometimes.
  5. We wanted a couple more mph on the fastball, and instead we got the tall version of Kevin Tapani. That works. Now we just need someone in the bullpen to turn into a version of Rick Aguilera.
  6. He was fun to watch. We need more players like that.
  7. We can’t possibly be that lucky, but I would absolutely love that.
  8. May have an interesting choice to make when Abel returns if Prielipp has a couple or more good starts. Does SWR still have options?
  9. Lee, Gray, Kreidler means we have 3 utility guys on the roster with 2 of them starting. This makes me want to leave a wake up call for June when Culpepper is promoted.
  10. This is always a fun time of year when most fans still have hope and stats usually don’t mean much (but we fixate on them anyway). Today’s stat du jour is OPS. Why, do you ask? Because Josh Bell is sitting 8th in all of MLB. The only 2 other Twins in the top 100 are Royce Lewis and Matt Wallner. Will things stay that way? Of course not. Will the Twins stay above .500? Probably not. But it’s spring in Minnesota and winter was a period of time we’d like to forget. So big thanks to Josh Bell for making the grass a bit greener. Enjoy your Friday!
  11. Since I haven’t committed yet to Twins TV this year, I have to find other ways to enjoy the game. Tonight, I’ve been enjoying the heck out of this forum and trying to guess what the score might be. I just cheated and looked at ESPN…now I know why everyone seems so giddy. Keep up the stellar work!
  12. I have reviewed our projected roster and have decided I am most excited about $2 beers.
  13. Could we consider Brooks Lee to be the backup SS, and our starter TBD?
  14. Not a lot of well rounded athletes on the team, are there?
  15. Trying to get these permutations correct - if Larnach is traded, then Bell can be the principal DH, and Clemens and Caratini can share 1B. The net effect on the batting order is trading Larnach’s bat for Clemens or Caratini, which doesn’t seem better. It might even be a little worse, although that is apparently offset by better fielding. Somewhere, Jeremy Zoll has his head in his hands thinking about the fact that about 8 guys on the projected roster have indistinguishable qualities.
