    Wondering about the high salaries that seem to rise astronomically? With 2014 soon coming to a close, Bud Selig and Major League Baseball can look back and say, “It was a very good year.” The league will see approx. $9 billion in gross revenues for the 2014 calendar year, a new record. ... That figure is up from $8 billion just last year, a staggering increase of 13 percent. http://www.forbes.com/sites/maurybrown/2014/12/10/major-league-baseball-sees-record-9-billion-in-revenues-for-2014/ We should all do so well. Of course, some teams did "much weller" than others due to local media revenues.

    I want to see if they can use the data to help Joe Mauer,
  4. JB_Iowa
    No! Mauer is finally getting adjusted to first and Twins have plenty of first base candidates. No more reunion tours.
  5. JB_Iowa
    It's only money. Isn't there some middle ground between the Sox and Twins?

    To me, this is annoying: Buster Olney ‏@Buster_ESPN · 1h1 hour ago The Kansas City, Detroit, Cleveland and White Sox games are going to have a whole different feel to them in 2015. Buster Olney ‏@Buster_ESPN · 49m49 minutes ago AL Central pitchers include: Kluber, Sale, Price, Samardzija, Sanchez, Verlander, Duffy, Ventura, Quintana, Salazar, Guthrie, Porcello. Meanwhile, Hughes and Perkins are crying for companionship...

    Thanks for sharing the great stories. Look forward to more!

    Mike Berardino ‏@MikeBerardino · 22m22 minutes ago In Toronto, Colabello will compete with fellow ex-Twin Danny Valencia for RH side of 1B platoon w/Justin Smoak.

    Add to more names to the list of pitchers the Twins are interested in. One is Logan Ondrusek, a righthander who was non-tendered by the Reds after posting a 5.49 ERA in 40 appearances last season. The other is righthander Dustin McGowan, who was 5-3, 4.17 in 53 games (eight starts) with the Blue Jays last season. If the Twins sign Ondrusek, it might be to a minor league deal with an invite to spring training. http://www.startribune.com/sports/twins/blogs/285120481.html Please note it is LEN3 who confysed two and too. Thought this was as good a place as any to add more names.

    Dustin Morse ‏@Twins_morsecode · 1m1 minute ago The Blue Jays have claimed Chris Colabello off waivers. The #MNTwins roster is now at 39. Enjoyed your story. Hope to see it continue.

    Welcome to the dark side, (Some days darker than others.)

    Jon Heyman ‏@JonHeymanCBS · 46m46 minutes ago Terry Ryan is flattered by someone speculating that another team is interested in him, but "Ryan is a Twin," a friend says

    Torii Hunter ‏@toriihunter48 · 54m54 minutes ago Talked to @MikeBerardino and we have settled our differences. Looking forward to working with him in the future. Mike Berardino ‏@MikeBerardino · 12m12 minutes ago Same here "@toriihunter48: Talked to @MikeBerardino and we have settled our differences. Looking forward to working with him in the future.”

    Berardino didn't ruin it, Torii did. It would have been a non-story if Torii hadn't called out Berardino. He had already answered the questions and I doubt whether anyone would have made much of the answers (in fact you have to search the stories to get what was said because the name-calling is the lead.) Torii has been around the game long enough to know to watch his language. All this does is show him to be a hothead.
  16. JB_Iowa
    Mostly I was hoping Hunter returning wouldn't happen .... and I had plenty of opportunities to express that on TD ... and did.

  18. JB_Iowa
    Torii was already p*ssed over the defensive metrics question. Imagine that, a reporter actually asking questions,
  19. JB_Iowa
    I think Torii's reaction to Berardino is a reflection on just how soft the TC media has been.
  20. JB_Iowa
    There hasn't been an announcement yet because he hasn't taken his physical.

    Donalsdon-Beane weren't the best of friends: http://bloguin.com/theoutsidecorner/the-locker/josh-donaldson-billy-beane-clashed-days.html?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=josh-donaldson-billy-beane-clashed-days
  22. JB_Iowa
    What happened to the Berardino speculation that the Twins wouldn't go over about $5 million? $10.5m sure blows that all to h*ll.
  23. JB_Iowa
    Well, now that I've read the Strib comments (at least the ones so far), I get what the Twins were hoping for -- almost universally positive,
  24. JB_Iowa
    keithlaw ‏@keithlaw · 18m18 minutes ago Torii Hunter is barely a replacement-level player. This feels like the Ken Griffey Jr return to Seattle.
  25. JB_Iowa
    No. No to Ichiro. No to Toriii, Just No. No more retreads, No more over-the-hill,
