  1. And he also spends to the cap limit every year. His selection of and loyalty to his GM's has been part of his failure.
  2. Seth, with all the self-induced negativity of the big club this year, I just want to say thank you for all the minors info. It has been a long season and I don't see anything positive for the Target field guys. The minor league round up is always my first go-to on the TD
  3. Every season has dog games where attendance isn't expected to be high. Why not look at those games and do it? Yes, the games won't be great but it still is an experience that kids would enjoy and perhaps become paying fans in the future. But then, are the Pohlads even remotely serious about the future?
  4. Do we honestly trust in this front office enough to make quality trades that would actually help the Twins?
  5. Well, we are Twins fans. If not, we would not be commenting on this article or even bothering to read it. I am pissed at a couple of the trades but let's face it. This team has been underperforming for a year at least. Changes had to be made. I continue to watch and will use my tickets to see games. I will root for the Twins at every opportunity. I am too old to stay angry over entertainment.
  6. Per the Star Tribune this morning he is progressing and could return in a couple of weeks. We'll see.
  7. In the majors, when a player has problems with A) hitting consistently B) Fielding consistently C) base running consistently it does not bode well. Problems in one of the areas is a warning sign. Problems in two of these is a serious warning sign. Problems in all three is a recipe for career minor league.
  8. Raya is looking more and more like a bull pen guy to me. The Twins have protected him pretty much his whole pro career and never really stretch him out. Great read Seth. Thank you
  9. If the Twins get down to starting Martin at SS it is going to be really ugly.
  10. I remember the days of the bull pen convertible delivering relief pitchers to home plate at the Met.
  11. I seem to remember reading that Reinsdorf only owns 19% of the WS but even at that, he is the majority owner. That means a whole bunch of folks own a little piece of the team. Billionaires (as if I know anything about them) don't seem to be fond of owning a little bit of something. They want the whole enchilada or at least over 50% control. That puts a lot of strain on making a deal.
  12. I agree. It has to be an all the above type deal or it will fail miserably.
  13. I don't have the data but it seems to me that much of the team have lost the strength to hit the ball. It just seems like the batted ball speed has decreased dramatically making opponents defense that much easier.
  14. I keep seeing folks here calling him a kid. He is 21. He is an adult. What were you all doing at 21? I was doing a lot and most guys that I know were also. To quote a great movie line; "It's a terrible thing to have to grow all the way up at 21". He deserves no pity nor any respect. Yes, he will have to live with this the rest of his life. Tough s__t! You get what you earn. I hope his Dad took him out to the woodshed when he got home, but then his Dad may have taught him to be this way in the first place.
  15. Watching the play it seems to me that Tommy was just as responsible for the play as Kemper. Neither did well.
  16. He is my wife's favorite player so watching Twins games next year should be loud in a not so good sort of way.
  17. Wait, didn't Farmer bring the summer sausage? That right there deserves some consideration.
