  1. The necessity to have pitchers hit is a dated idea. Both leagues should use the designated hitter.
  2. It's getting so bad that it's kind of sad watching Mauer hit. Don't both sides have to consider finding something wrong with Mauer and putting him on the DL? Only short-term but two weeks helped last year.
  3. Panic or don't panic. It's out of our hands either way.
  4. There's really not much competition outside of Druggie Strawberry. He's a Hall of Fame catcher. The problem moving forward is he's no longer a catcher.
  5. There's a greater chance than not that things come back to earth, but I've got more confidence that the Twins can win than I've had in five years.
  6. Do you mean the stay in the big leagues is likely to be only two weeks, and the Twins want Hicks return to be permanent?
  7. The playoff futility is so hard to ignore. A 6-21 record and half of the wins game in the first playoff appearance. I don't see why Ron Gardenhire can suddenly figure out how to manage when it counts when he's never done so before.
  8. Listening to Barreiro and you'd think Mauer was the one who struck out with the bases loaded.
  9. I realize it's guilt by association but I'm not comfortable cheering for a team with a cheater on it.
  10. If you don't include on-base, and walks than I could see Mauer being passed on after a down 2014. I'm optimistic he's going to be better than last year but pessimistic we'll ever see the old Joe Mauer. .288/.369/.417
  11. You think Prior would have thrown a tantrum and imploded if the same Game Six scenario happened with the Twins?
  12. Team effort until Buxton is ready to take over.
  13. I don't think he's ever been great during interviews. Just not a natural in front of the camera.
  14. I think far too many times the Twins fell into the mindset of drafting for need versus drafting the best player available. Of course
  15. I wonder how many times fans A)even know they came from Washington and B)it's the same franchise?
  16. Possible names on the list. Gene Michael, Buzzie Bavasi, Bob Howsam, Lee McPhail, Sandy Alderson, John Schuerholz and Pat Gillick.
  17. Who the hell is Bernadino talking to that Hunter being against gay marriage is one of the two big talking points?
  18. Bernadino needs to stick to baseball related questions and leave out politics.
  19. 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.
  20. Yet the worst franchise in sports the Cubs are the rumored leader for Maddon.
  21. I don't think it's the job that would be keep Maddon from having interest. It's the ownership and front office placing a self induced salary cap on the team.
  22. If it walks like a duck.... Couldn't the high increase in home runs one season and decline the next be a sign the season was on the up and up? Kind of like Wade Boggs in 1987 or Joe Mauer in 2009.
  23. One thing I'm wondering is whether Terry Ryan honestly went into the search willing and prepared to hire an outsider or his he kind of caught off guard that maybe the best candidate may not coach in the Twins organization?
  24. This was only speculation on his part but Reusse didn't think Molitor had anything more than a 30% chance of being hired and the team is going to seriously look outside the organization.
