  1. If you believe this I got swamp land in Florida to sell ya.
  2. Only if they eat 1/2 the salary.
  3. If the Pohlads don't sell nothing will change.
  4. Figured Twins were pretty much washed out mentally after Marlins losses. One thing I still cannot figure out from Friday down 2-0. You know the Royals had lost (still not eliminated)and you bring in Thielbar and Funderburk in relief. Funderburk who had just been activated from DL and hadn't pitched in forever. Night before Rocco says everyone is available, that was a real head scratcher by Rocco. Maybe that was throwing in the towel because the front office activated Funderburk, I don't know. Theoretically they were not eliminated yet. Of all the bullpen moves this season, that was one of the weirdest decisions of the year, Funderburk. One of 2024's mysteries that will live on. This and pulling Ober in Kansas City when he was cruising. I was at the game. Kansas City was absolutely flailing at the plate and were not seeing what Ober was throwing. Ober wasnt even swearing and hus pitch count was like bad innings. The Cleveland series, two 10 inning losses, there was fight and effort by the Twins but nothing the manager did worked out. Last Marlins extra innings loss, the popped out bunt. We seemed cursed with injuries but there was also some terrible luck involved and bad ju ju. Twins need a sage or smudge ceremony in the clubhouse to chase away the weird and angry spirits hanging around.
  5. Falvey and Lavine should be out for signing Joey Gallo. Dave St Peter should be out for botching media rights deals. Joe Pohlad should be demoted for his disastrous PR and poor fan engagement. St Peter never gets fired and that guy has been in power for close to 30 years.
  6. Anyone else find the points made by Scoggins article about ownership well reasoned? They can do whatever they want ownership, but it is becoming clear fans paitence with buying tickets, is wearing thin. I personally am dropping my 20 game pack if Joe Pohlad remains lead decision maker. Thought attendance was impacted by statements made by Joe during opening weekend. Regardless of what decision we fan's make, I don't get a sense payroll will improve, if anything with declining attendance we are likely to see a further reduction.
  7. The Royals and Tigers are not serious contenders in the playoffs. Neither were the Twins.
  8. They pretty much quit on season after KC sweep in KC.
  9. Fitting to have Jeffers up here with elimination.
  10. Quite an effort by Royce Lewis the last 4 games.
  11. I predict the fastest 1-2-3 inning by the Twins all year. Twins are burnt toast
  12. I think Rocco knows he is gonna take the blame, wrongly or rightly.
  13. Probably because Funderderk didn't earn his way back, and yet here he is.
  14. I can get behind the defund the Pohlads movement by not buying tix, if it meant they would sell the team. This tough one for me because I'm a baseball fan and Twins are my favorite team. If they don't remove Joe from decision making authority, I am out.
  15. Farmer is not even an average 2nd basemen MLB. Do not want him back. Castro, I would want back.
  16. This 2-0 lead feels like 7 runs. Twins are dis-interested in playing any more baseball. Rocco said they would give their best effort. This is just not a team that wants to play anymore.
  17. Ryan Jeffers, Ugh! He is automatic out. He should not play another game His effort isn't even decent, Jeffers that is. This team has a high need for a replacement catcher. Always been a streaky hitter, but he goes bad he goes really bad.
  18. They need to move on from Jeffers, Julien and Miranda. I would take lottery tickets for any of them
  19. If Joe Pohlad remains lead owner and decision maker, I'm out on tickets next year entirely. I don't care If someone else makes unpopular decisions, but the right size payroll comments, the TV contract fiasco with Bally's and Comcast, the inaction at the trade deadline, if his family doesn't boot him, there will be more fan's like me not buying any tickets. He cannot be face of ownership or more fans will turn on the team.
  20. That Joe dude needs to be kicked out of the lead owner spot, not media savvy at all, and poor at messaging to fans and media alike. Clearly in over his head.
  21. I don't care to listen to Morneau drone on as color guy. My least favorite of the group. I enjoy Glen Perkins and Ploufe c a lot more.
  22. This was fitting end, and what Joe Pohlad earned as much as the manager, and players. Can one of the older Sons take back the reigns? At least one savy enough to negotiate a decent media rights deal, TV and radio and one better at PR.
  23. This game was lost when Royce Lewis failed to execute one professional at-bat in extra innings. I realize Vazquez is almost up and I still want to move on from Ryan Jeffers.
  24. I hope Ryan Jeffers is a trade candidate in off-season.
  25. 👎Ryan Jeffers strikes again, Ugh!
