  1. Will the Twins Trade for a Mercenary? They are all Mercenaries.
  2. He is an average AAA player and would get nothing but another average AAA rookie, not going any where.
  3. It is easier to understand a foreign language than it is to speak it especially when native tonation between the two languages is so different; this is from experience.
  4. He did not turn and head towards the dugout, stupid move.
  5. The move he made was big enough the Detroit catcher saw and he was thrown out, Jeffers fault.
  6. He lost it in the lights, similar to Buxton losing it in the sun the other day,
  7. Jeffers error, he had plenty time to get back to first base and did not.
  8. He made a motion towards second and was too dumb to go stand on the base and was tagged out.
  9. Trade for what, even though he has a no trade clause. They would ONLY accept some thing that is in the absolute top level of pro ball, not some wishful thinking rookie.
  10. He is not going any where. He is a Minn. native and the Front Office does not mind having another Joey Gallo type outfielder but it would be nice if he could field as well as Gallo.
  11. Lewis is not getting an extension, neither Martin or Castro can field within 40 percent of Buxton/ Rodriguez, yeah right, get real.
  12. We have had enough Hicks, Rooker, Badoo (dumped before he showed his lack of talent) Celestino, Kirilloff, Blankenhorn rookies that I have no reason to be a cheerleader for wannbes, especially if their lack of adapting to the above AAA level puts a hole in the defense. I like Cave, Willie Mays Hayes Gordon , Astudillo, Castro, Stevenson, Sano, but their stars shone bright in AAA, briefly in the Prozs, for most , and faded. All the blather here about some wonder kid that is better than what they have has been pretty much a lot of Bollocks, yet they keep on trashing what ever veteran they say is blocking their wonder kid from comng up to find out the pros are a school of hard knocks, where if you do not cut it, you will be sent back or traded before they hurt the team even more. Right now Lewis is learning what happens when pro pitchers adapt to your style and you do not adapt to them quick enough. I hope not , but I read more than one article online about rookies that hit the Bigs with record breaking gusto and never had another season above average and some just plain did not stay at average level. At this point IF Miranda can keep up his level of over all play, he may be the regular at 3rd and Lewis the fill in as Lewis is a less good fielder than Miranda.
  13. Right now, would any one notice if Lewis missed the plane.🤧
  14. 1970 when KQRS first hit the air waves, as an AM only station, we would listen to KQ till it lost power in the evening then switch to KOMA, or KAAY. Early KQRS was totally different from the commercial thing it is now. I met one of the gents who worked there in the early years, and he said while they were commercial from the get-go they had empty spots to fill so they would stick in there what ever they could. I still remember the Zodiac News well.
  15. Used to listen to WCCO at night when I traveled late night for Hobbs House; in my hell raising years KAAY from Little Rock with Beaker Street and then Beaker Theater was on for many bottles of Southern Comfort and cases of beer during late night champagne flites.
