  1. He was talking about Cuban cigars not Cuban baseball players.
  2. I wonder how many times fans A)even know they came from Washington and B)it's the same franchise?
  3. I think it's worse to leave and than try and comeback like yesterday in Seattle.
  4. Wiggins stat line tonight 31 pts 9 reb 4 ast 3 blocks 1 steal
  5. Possible names on the list. Gene Michael, Buzzie Bavasi, Bob Howsam, Lee McPhail, Sandy Alderson, John Schuerholz and Pat Gillick.
  6. Listening right now and TR takes responsibility on passing on Mike Mussina.
  7. I think for some voters the fact Biggio hung on to reach 3,000 hits worked against him. I was a huge Craig Biggio guy but his last eight years saw a dramatic decline in production. The way things work though had he retired at 37 after two below average seasons his career numbers wouldn't have been good enough by many voters to warrant induction.
  8. Here's hoping that Tim Raines skyrockets up on a weaker ballot next year.
  9. I'd call it more ghoulish predicting the sad but inevitable ending to some famous persons life. Stuart Scott of ESPN died today at 49.
  10. http://www.baseballthinkfactory.org/newsstand/discussion/the_2015_hof_ballot_collecting_gizmo/P100
  11. Mauer was never a great third hitter, but he was good enough in his prime to hit third for a playoff team. It wasn't just because Gardenhire didn't want to hurt his feelings. Now he's kind of a player without number in the batting order. Not good enough for third and not necessarily suited to hit second at this point of his career.
  12. Who the hell is Bernadino talking to that Hunter being against gay marriage is one of the two big talking points?
  13. Twins Hall of Fame likely happens the first year Hunter is retired.
  14. Mauer and I don't think either one is going to have a great oWar.
  15. Bernadino needs to stick to baseball related questions and leave out politics.
  16. I can understand Deshields saying no to the 1st base coach opening if he wants to be a major league manager. He's also going to manage for an organization who might be one more bad season away from firing their manager. Am I making too much out of the word rejected in the Renteria tweet? It makes it seem like the Twins weren't even given the courtesy of a thanks but no thanks from Renteria.
  17. Joe Mauer was the best catcher in baseball for nearly a decade and he never had a former catcher on the coaching staff. I think there's a reason to question the decision , but not because Vavra was chosen over a former catcher.
  18. Neil Allen was my choice after searching for Rays AAA pitching coach right after Gardenhire was let go. I wish I had been smart enough to post something in late September. Unless the one year as the Yankees bullpen coach counts, hiring Neil Allen would go against the reports of the Twins wanting a pitching coach with big league experience.
  19. If Kent Hrbek gets a statue than Walter Johnson should have a statue.
  20. I could have sworn filling in for Mackey and Judd that Doogie speculated that Bruno was going to be the only returning coach from last season.
  21. I'd hate to see the reaction if he listened to Dan Barreiro talk about Joe Mauer.
  22. I think ownership made the final call on this hire. Terry Ryan was open to hiring an outsider but wasn't going to fight hard to change the mind of Jim Pohlad.
  23. Kaat should win the Ford Frick award for his broadcasting career. I wouldn't be against most the names, but I don't think there's anymore egregious omissions like Ron Santo.
  24. We might find out Monday or the announcement will have to wait until Wednesday at the earliest.
