Your first response comes across as condescending , hence my question. Nice to see you can’t answer it. The response of what goes on in other clubs to my comments is saying the situation the situation is not unique to the Twins. There was no need for any of your retorts,

Wins and longevity seem to be the criteria. That Gardenhire and Kelly also have the most losses did not seem to matter.

Met stadium held 45000. In the 60s and 70s a season averting 15000 fans was very good. Before 1976 if the team was playing well the fans came out.

Cody is a genius at clickbait. Baldelli triggers people here. One can’t help but laugh at the comments.

And of course anybody can honestly tell the batter if they think the pitch was a strike or not.
-
There was nothing in my pst to suggest that this was unique to the Twins.

13 guys can’t develop camaraderie? 13 batters can’t get along. Will there be a player that is difficult to work with? Yup. A set lineup is not going to change that.

Yet another journeyman that did not have a job. After joining the Twins

2007 would be their birth year. 18 years old is 18 years old. There are a lot of 18 year olds in the FCL I would bet that some of them are pitchers. That they are a few days older really doesn’t matter the least bit. With the state of pitching it would be unlikely for pitching talent to be at the inappropriate skill level in the. Minors

J.F.C. SWR jest got the Twins Daily this story is not going to age well curse.
-
Considering that May college players do not do well until their second or third year, these kids hitting well at that age is a good sign. Hopefully they are learning defense and baserunning, too.
-
Nobody said to do so. The argument was about picking up the scrap heap players
-
I don’t know that anyone here is saying follow the Milwaukee blueprint but it has been an effective for at least getting into the playoffs 7 out of the last 8 years. Don’t know this McGill fellow, but there is a Megel who played one year for the Twins He got traded for a not good minor league reliever and somebody mysterious that goes by the name of cash. Probably goes by the nickname of 50K

If he stays good they will have to play AC/DC Thuderstruck. I am sure the crack AV team can modify the lyrics With a save, after the final out you could find a Brian Johnson clone to screech “You’ve been Funderstuck, Yeah Yeah Yeaaaah “

Position players might be harder to find, any bullpen would be the first spot to look. I could have also used the Brewer’s CF also. Lest someone thinks they can’t be a star after release, try Max Muncy.
-
You forgot El Gasoline Funderbutk from the first half of the season who has given up only 2 ER since the trade deadline. Since the criteria is throw out the two worst games, Funderburk hasn’t given up a run.

It is an outlier, but not such an outlier the clubs don’t pick up the DFA people. If you look, you will find the clubs do have out liars. Milwaukee has Isaac Collins, their outfielder who has put up over 2 WAR
-
Didn’t you know that you were supposed to pick a small sample size to illuminate your point You should have used Clemens first month’ stats as because the bar would be higherTthe OP was just using the last month and a half’s stats
-
Did you even read what I was responding to? Players change teams and sometimes reach their ceiling. Rooker, Bader and even Clemens fit that description so it is not unreasonable to have players let go (traded for nothing, not resigned) do well later. This being Twins Daily, I thought I should include the other side of the DFA for a good reason example so somebody wouldn’t have there what about. Sorry that the flip side was an ambiguous term for you.
-
About 30 of the teams sell what if. About 30 teams have hype. The Dodgers hyped a return to the World Series.
-
Brent Rooker was let go, see what happened to him. Bader was not good for either New York team. Now look at him. The flip side is Gasper
-
Urbina is old for A+. How many times has it been brought up that a player is young for the level and how special that good performance is. Well, shouldn't the play of the old man be downplayed? It is what he is supposed to do The question becomes moot if he goes to AA.
-
Gasper is competing to be the utility player. Pereda is trying to show he can be a major league player. They are different roles

They forgot to remove this from the tidbits. This story really did not age well.
